Chapter 314: Bringing Zackary Back

Tina noticed the excitement on their faces and felt a slight stir in her heart. "Tina, want to play a few rounds?" Yeev suggested after some small talk. "No, thanks," Tina declined, "I'm just here to check things out today." Yeev was a bit disappointed but understood that Tina had been busy these past years. Her visit alone was already a pleasant surprise.

"Tina, when can we start training?" Lysander asked eagerly. Tina paused for a moment and said, "No rush. I'll first draft a training plan." "Alright!" They chatted for a while longer until Tina's phone suddenly rang. She glanced at the caller ID; it was Cole. Answering the call, she heard Cole say, "Serena, Zackary has been brought back." "Got it," she replied.

Ending the call, Tina turned to Lysander and the others, saying, "I have something to attend to. I'll come back once I've drafted the training plan." "Leaving so soon?" Lysander was reluctant to let her go after finally getting her to come out. Tina nodded, "Yes, I have something urgent." Seeing this, the others said, "Tina, if you have something to do, go ahead. We'll wait for you." "Okay."

After leaving, Tina headed straight back to the Reed family home. Upon entering the room, she saw Zackary. The child had suffered quite a bit; in just a few months, his once chubby face had become gaunt. His body was covered in bruises and marks, indicating he had been frequently beaten and scolded.

Seeing Zackary's injuries made Tina's expression darken immediately. She rolled up his sleeves and asked coldly, "Was it your aunt?" The moment Zackary saw her, tears of grievance welled up in his eyes as he timidly responded, "Yes... Aunt wouldn't give me food and even hit me." He often went without meals and was bullied by his cousins, living in constant fear.

Although Cole had reported this before, seeing it with her own eyes and hearing Zackary recount it filled Tina with rage. Her fingers clenched tightly. "Don't be afraid," she gently comforted the frightened and timid Zackary. "No one can bully you anymore. You can live here in peace."
