I signaled the driver to leave, leaving him behind.
Just like we had left him behind in our lives.
The next I heard about Samuel was that he was in prison.
Recovering the assets he had transferred to Rachel was easy for my legal team.
They informed me that even the house Rachel was living in had secretly been bought by Samuel.
Now Rachel was stuck renting a place in a rundown area.
Like Samuel, her reputation was shot, and no company would hire her.
She tried running a small stall, but people recognized her and destroyed it.
After that, she resorted to collecting garbage for a living.
As for the kids who bullied Lily, they were forced out of school after other parents complained.
I heard they weren’t welcomed at new elementary schools either.
It made sense; what parent would want their child around kids with violent behavior?
Leo, on the other hand, faced ridicule at his new elementary school for being the son of a mistress.
He snapped and got into a fight with a group of six-year-olds.
The outcome was predictable. He was outmatched and got beaten up badly, ending up bleeding.
At the hospital, he was diagnosed with a concussion and a broken leg.
No elementary school would accept him after that.
Rachel was both furious and devastated. She begged for help, but it was useless. She could only take him along to scavenge.
The next time I saw them was at a street market.
Both were dirty, hair unkempt, rummaging through trash cans.
Meanwhile, I was in my luxury car, ready to order my daughter’s favorite princess cake.
