THE NEGLECTED ZAHRA DIAMOND

Chapter 16

"Honestly actually I do not want to ask for help lo, because I feel I have often mendzolimi lo when becoming the wife of my sister Dirga. But anything a mother would do for her child, right??. But you know how the treatment of the Bahri family when they see someone who is lacking in their eyes will definitely be bullied all out, I do not want my daughter to get such treatment, he said, so I beg you to help Gerald. I will do whatever you ask as long as you accept him as your student" Anin said

"In accepting students in this bimbel I never see any background, family, past or other personal issues, so take it easy, just relax, I'll definitely accept Gerald if he passes the selection for sure. Because I will only teach students who really want to learn, not enter Bimbel to get the unlucky leak of the exam," replied Zahra

"Thank God then, thank you very much Za for your kindness,"

"Don't thank me first, because Gerald isn't necessarily welcome" Zahra said

He then sent Gerald into the classroom to do some test work. Anin looked anxious while waiting for her only son.

Zalika who began to be received well in his school began to show his development in the academic field. Because of the support of the class teacher and his friends who began to embrace him, now his learning achievements began to increase. Especially in maths.

All the teachers were stunned when the boy always got perfect grades in every lesson even though he rarely paid attention while studying. Especially in maths lessons.

Because his achievements in math lessons are so good that the school sent him to be a school representative to participate in the elementary school math lesson competition.

For the first time Zalika won the first championship and made Zahra so proud of him.

The news that Zalika is a Special Needs Child who has a myriad of achievements makes everyone amazed at his achievements. That of course makes journalists try to invite him to various shows on television just to review how Zahra can make his daughter become an accomplished child.

The emergence of Zalika on various television stations made the name of the Bahri family lifted. The news about Zalika is the daughter of Dirga Bahri makes the media crew increasingly intensively explore the personal life of the child. Although Zahra often refused offers to interview about their personal lives, the media managed to get a lot of information about Zalika from various sources.

The rise in Bahri's stock price that plummeted immediately strengthened when Dirga immediately made a statement that Zalika was his biological daughter in front of the media.

He deliberately made a press conference in order to gain the trust of the community.

Instead of getting a good reception from the Bahri family, Dirga actually got an ultimatum from Merry will revoke his position as CEO of Bahri group if he still wants to recognize Zalika as his daughter.

"Remember Dirga, once again you say if Zalika is your daughter, then I'm not reluctant to expel you from the Bahri family,"

"But because Zalika our share price has gone up, even the negative sentiments of the people have started to improve when they know that Zalika is an amazing child who makes everyone proud of her achievements. So there's no harm in me doing the press conference, anyway it's just a formality so that people know that we're not throwing Zalika away, but Zahra who is trying to separate her from us" Dirga replied

"Whatever his alibi, I still disagree. However, I do not want the reputation of the Bahri family to be polluted because it has an abnormal grandson like Zalika," said Merry still did not want to accept Zalika as his grandson

Although the Bahri family immediately clarified Dirga's statement, the journalists began to conclude that Dirga was actually Zalika's real father.

News about who Zalika's real father made the little girl began to be disturbed.he who had begun to miss the figure of his father began to question where the existence of his father to Zahra.

"Good, dad where, why doesn't he ever see us, does he not love us anymore?" zalika asked so riled up

"Dad is busy son so he has not had time to visit us, just be patient one day he will definitely come to see you. All parents love their children, so don't think that you don't love you for never visiting us,"

"Can't love, you're busy, man,"

"If you're busy just let Lika visit you, I happen to be not busy so I have plenty of time to meet her,"

After several times convincing his daughter, Zahra finally managed to convince Zalika not to see his father. He was afraid that his daughter would be hurt if he experienced rejection from the Bahri family who had already thrown them away.

You don't know if they kicked us out and forbade us from setting foot in their palace, so don't even think about seeing your father again,

Zahra looked riled up when she found out that Zalika really missed her father.

Although he would listen to her not to see her father, but still the little girl could not cover her longing for the father.

Although unable to realize Zalika's desire to meet with her father, instead Zahra took her daughter for a walk to a mall.

He hopes that Zalika can forget his longing after playing as much as possible in the children's arena.

But who would have thought when they were in the mall Zalika actually saw Dirga.

Curious about her father figure, the girl continued to follow the man.

Zahra who started to lose Zalika trying to find her daughter like crazy. Many times he went to the information center to announce that he had lost his daughter.

Despite searching the entire Mall zahra still did not find the little girl.

Seeing Zahra grieving over the loss of her daughter makes Ivory come to help her find where Zalika is

Meanwhile, Zalika tries to get into the trunk of Dirga's car in order to follow the man.

The passionate longing made the little girl desperate to do anything to meet her father.

Meanwhile, Ivory managed to find CCTV of Lika's whereabouts who was following someone.

"Dirga??, is he really following Dirga?" Zahra did not expect that her daughter would follow Dirga and leave her.

Knowing his daughter was trying to meet his father, Zahra immediately contacted Dirga to tell him if Zalika was following him.

Dirga who was surprised by Zahra's remark immediately checked the trunk of his car. The man was shocked when he saw Zalika lying in the trunk of his car.

Afraid of something happening with her daughter, she takes Zalika to the hospital.

"I'm sorry I never understood you, son, I'm sorry I couldn't look after you and protect you,"
