Chapter 122: Director Lu Arrests Someone Upon Taking Office
At nine in the morning, Yusuf Zuck opened a bank account at HSBC and sent the card number to Mia, who was far away in Hong Kong.
After the account was set up, he drove towards the airport. At the same time, he called Miles O’Brien to ask for leave. Everything had converged at once; visiting the Ruiz Family would mean he couldn’t pick up his sister, and picking up his sister meant he couldn’t visit the Ruiz Family. So, he had no choice but to apologize to both Miles O’Brian and Bryce Harper because, in his heart, nothing was more important than his sister, Sara Zuck.
To tell the truth, Sara was not his biological sister; not even a single drop of blood was shared between them.
Yusuf’s mother remarried Sara’s father when Yusuf was four years old, and that year, Sara was only one. Yusuf and Sara grew up together, no different from other siblings—perhaps even closer than some.
Yusuf’s mother was often sickly and, while Yusuf was boarding at sports school, it was Sara, still a child, who took care of their home and looked after their mother.
Of course, she was his mother too, because there was no difference in their feelings; their affection was no longer bound by blood relations.
As for Sara’s father, Yusuf’s stepfather, the man was a good-for-nothing—drinking and gambling his life away, hardly ever sober.
Perhaps it was because of their mutual dependence for survival that both Yusuf and Sara cherished each other greatly—they had long considered one another an integral part of their lives.
At ten o’clock sharp in the morning, Yusuf arrived at the airport and entered the arrivals hall, quietly sitting down and watching for passengers to emerge.
Sara’s dream was to become a movie star, an ambition deeply engraved in her heart since she was a little girl. She strived for it as she grew up and, ultimately, managed to get into the Beijing Film Academy.
