chapter 1632

"I'm here." Zayn's gentle voice instantly sounded. At the same time, he also saw the howling woman. The woman was probably in her fifties and seemed to be about the same age as Gloria. Her face was wrinkled, and her hair was both black and white in color. The woman's clothes were ragged, her hair was in clumps, and her face was so dirty that whether her hair was black or white could not be clearly distinguished.

"What do you want to see me for?" At a glance, Zayn thought that this middle-aged woman was mentally ill, but even when dealing with a mentally unstable person, he still had a sense of respect and patience.

However, what Zayn did not expect was that the old woman instantly stopped howling, she sat on the ground and raised her head to look at Zayn. "Mister Smith, it's like this. I...got hit once when I was young, so it caused me to have dissociative amnesia. Later on, I slowly got better, but I can't find my house anymore. I have lost my identity card, but I am not stupid. They want to give me a bath and send me to the psychiatric hospital. I know that they mean well by taking me in and giving me a bath, but I'm not stupid and I'm not mentally ill. I just want a proper job. After I worked for a period and saved some money, then I can go back to my hometown. I just want a job, even if it's sweeping the streets."

Zayn was speechless.

"My requirements are very low, it's not much, Mister Smith. You are a good person who does good deeds. Help me. I don't want to be treated as a patient and be locked up. I just want to be a cleaner, it's fine even if it's cleaning toilets. I just want to be self-sufficient."

Seeing the way this woman desperately pleaded in front of him, she made Zayn think of Gloria, when Zayn was able to stand up and return to South City, Gloria already had a home and looked very decent. However, Zayn knew all about the fact that Gloria had been a vagrant for eight years. Perhaps for many years, when people speak of Gloria, they would also think that she was mentally ill, right? Zayn could understand the pain and needs of this woman in front of him.

Zayn immediately said gently, "I understand you. How about this? You still have to take a bath, then after that I will accompany you to the hospital for a checkup. If you truly can work normally then I will arrange a job for you, okay?"

"Yes! Yes, okay, Mister Smith. Find me the cheapest bath, and I'll wash myself," the old woman said gratefully.

At that moment, Tessa, who had been following Zayn by his side, said with a smile, "Let me help you take a bath. I can give you a clean scrub like that."

The old woman looked touched. "Young lady, you..."

The young lady in front of her was in her early twenties, was dressed very neatly, and had a sunny disposition. She was very stylish. How could such a lady help to bathe an old woman like herself? The old woman immediately shook her head. "No, no, no, my child, I...I will get you dirty."

"It's fine!" Tessa looked at Zayn. "This is...my boyfriend. He is very passionate about helping others. I fancy this virtue of his, that's why I like him. If it's something my boyfriend likes to do, ther it would only be natural for me to like it as well. After all..."

There was a pause. Tessa's face was flushed. "In the future, I will have to follow the man I marry."

Zayn was also very touched. The young lady was clean, had a sunny disposition, and was pure at heart. She was sincerely a very good person. No wonder Sebastian insisted on introducing her to him. Sebastian has quite a good eye for judging a person's character.

Zayn could not help but feel even more fond of Tessa.

On Zayn and Tessa's first date, both of them worked together to help the old woman take a bath and do a health checkup. After they ensured that there was no problem, they then found the old woman a job.

It only took a month for the old woman to save enough money, and then she found her home. After a month, the old woman specially made a call to thank Zayn. It so happened that Zayn was on a date with Tessa.

Within a month, the two of them were already very familiar with each other. They must have already gone on about ten dates. However, Tessa was almost always the one taking the initiative.
