THE NEGLECTED ZAHRA DIAMOND

Chapter 19

Today almost all online media make Merry as a news headline. News of the woman's abusive behavior towards Zalika appeared to be gracing all online news channels as well as infotainment. Of course this makes the woman more furious and immediately boycotted the online media that made itself a news headline.

Furious with the treatment of Merry who always intimidates his daughter makes Zahra even more hate the woman.

"Have not been too taken heart, be patient. Never try to reciprocate his rude behavior, just show him your achievements, so that he knows that you are a diamond that will still shine even in the mud though," said Ivory trying to calm Zahra who was so emotional

"You're right, I wish I could silence her spicy mouth,"

"Oh yeah, there's a friend of mine who left you a letter" Ivory gave Zahra a brown envelope

Zahra immediately opened the envelope and read it in front of Ivory.

"Teaching offer, accept it?" ask Zahra

"As much as you are Za,"

"I don't think I can Ding, you know I can't leave Zalika, yet,"

"Yaudah no papa, let me tell you later,"

"But if the second offer I want,"

"What offer?" ask Ivory curious

"Being a volunteer to teach a special needs child?"

"You sure you can?" tanya Ivory

"Of course, if I can change Lika why can't I change another child. Let's just say this time I want to dedicate the knowledge I have to charity" replied Zahra

"What about Zalika?"

"I'm going to take her while teaching there, after all, there is no prohibition on bringing children, right?"

"Ok if that is so I immediately tell my friend," Gading then contacted his friend to inform him about Zahra's decision

In the morning Zahra went to a foundation that does handle children with special needs.

The arrival of Zahra was welcomed by the owner of the Foundation.

After explaining his duties during teaching there, Zahra was then invited to a class that was indeed a student of children with ADHD diagnosis.

Meeting children with ADHD, Zahra remembers her daughter Zalika.

I hope I can help you learn well, so that you can live a normal life like other children.

Zahra's seriousness in teaching children with special needs was finally fruitful. One month after he taught now they can learn to calm in class. Not only that They also began to be able to understand the commands and work on the tasks of their teachers.

This progress made the owner of the foundation so happy and proud of Zahra who never gave up on teaching children with special needs. Although sometimes he gets violent actions from his students while tantrums but does not discourage him to help them in learning.

Zahra's passion and hard work received a positive response from an educational observer.

He even invited Zahra to an event attended by government officials.

Because his achievements made his name increasingly known to many people so that many elite schools asked him to become a permanent teacher in their school. But Zahra refused because she wanted to focus on taking care of her daughter.

He will also continue to dedicate himself to helping children with special needs who have difficulty in learning by opening a special foundation for children with special needs.

The name of Zahra who began to be known made his Bimbel business more advanced. Because of his bimbel business that began to be much in demand Zahra then recruited several employees to help him run the business.

Now he only monitors his Bimbel efforts because all of his teachers are employees. However, Zahra always ensures that graduates from Bimbelnya must be accepted at the best public or private universities.

Although Zahra already has a lot of busyness but he still prioritizes Zalika as a top priority in his life.

Meanwhile, the shares of the Bahri family company decreased due to the slanted news about Merry being rude to Zalika who is his own grandson.

The directors asked Dirga to hold an emergency meeting to discuss the company's stock price strategy.

"Why don't we ask Ms. Merry to apologize to Zalika, I think it can improve the image of the company that will affect our stock price, or commonly referred to as imaging techniques. Although Mother may not like it, but that's all we can do to improve the bad image of society against Merry Mother who is the mascot of our company" said one of the directors

Hearing the proposal was immediately rejected by Merry.

"I'm Merry Bahri would never apologize to commoners like them. Even if our share price is falling it's not because of my problems with Zahra but because of the global economic recession caused by the Russian and Ukrainian wars, so don't make it up!" exclaim Merry

Meanwhile, Ivory who had long liked Zahra began to show his seriousness with the woman.

The man began to show his fatherly attitude to Zalika to make the little boy began to like her.

In addition to paying more attention to Zalika he also tried to melt the heart of Zahra by always giving attention and naming it in every event.

The news of Zahra's proximity to Ivory made Dirga feel jealous. Can not be denied if he actually still loves the woman, it's just that he had no choice to leave her because of her mother's coercion. Seeing Zahra getting close to another man made Dirga feel upset and try to get closer to Zahra again.

He even sent a bucket of red roses at the opening of the Zahra bimbel branch in South Jakarta.

Although Zahra never responded to his congratulations and always threw away all the items he gave did not make Dirga unyielding to regain the woman's heart.

Delia who felt her husband had changed and turned to another woman immediately complained to her mother-in-law Merry.

She deliberately vilified Zahra, and accused her of seducing her husband.

He even showed evidence of delivery of flower buckets, and other gifts that Dirga sent to Zahra.

"Based on j*lang, how dare you tease my son, don't you remember your promise to me!" merry clenched his hand

That night Delia accidentally invited Merry to her campus birthday. He invited Merry because he knew Zahra would be a speaker at the event.

He hoped that Merry would ruin the zahra speech and humiliate the woman.

I'm sure this time your good name will soon be destroyed, so be prepared to bear the title of the actor, and lose what you've been fighting for all this time,

Delia immediately called Merry when she saw Zahra about to climb onto the podium.

The woman smiled sinisterly looking at Zahra who was so excited about giving her first speech.

"Smile, because maybe this will be your last smile on this campus,"
