Never would they expect that they would experience such highs and lows in one day.
They were once on top of the world, but now they were nobodies.
Ding!
Ding!
Ding!
……
All their phones notified them at the same time.
When they opened their phones, what await them were more horrifying news.
All their assets overseas had been emptied out, even estates, cars, as well the manor. Everything was gone.
In an instant, they had nothing left besides what they were wearing since even the place they lived in was confiscated.
At the same time, they also got notified that Zarain had officially withdrawn their citizenship.
They were strip of the identity, including their names.
Their personal information no longer existed in the global database. They were now living in exile.
Even beggars were better than them since they still had their identity intact.
“I-I-I… “
Fabian felt lightheaded and immediately blacked out.
“Why is this happening?”
“What did we do wrong to deserves this?”
“I refuse to accept this! I’m going to file an appeal!”
……
With that announcement, people got upset and protested like crazy.
Horrific things were happening all over the streets as those traitors from Erudia were violently assaulted before being forcefully kicked out of the country.
Things would only get worse once they got out of the country as they no longer had an identity. That meant that no other region would ever accept them into their borders.
They could not go back to Erudia nor anywhere else.
No one would accept them.
The only worth they had left was to do hard labor.
It was said that there were a lot of human trafficking organizations currently looking for people like them.
That said, everyone knew what would happen with they fell into the hands of those organizations.
Soon, footsteps could be heard approaching them at a rapid pace before people came charging into the house.
“You are no longer citizens of Zarain! All your statuses have been revoked!”
“From now on, you are not welcomed in Zarain! Leave at once!”
……
The first thing they did was give out the command for the two families to leave the country.
“Sir, there must be some misunderstanding! We are the Lopez and the Black family of Erudia! We are very close with Mr. Schimidt!”
“That’s right! Letting us stay in Zarain would definitely be beneficial!”
“There must have been a mistake. We could never be deported!”
……
Everyone started defending themselves, but the was no mistake.
“It’s you people alright! No misunderstanding here!”
“Now move! Maggots like you should never be allowed to stay in the sacred land like Zarain!”
The men were adamant.
“Let me ask you this. Why did you freeze all our assets? You have no right to do that!” Shaun stood forward.
“Yeah!” Logan chimed in. “You people were the ones who invited us into Zarain! You even sent a jet to pick us up! How could you revoke our status just like that? What’s the reason?”
“That’s right! How could you guys be so unreasonable? I don’t mind leaving the country, but how could you people confiscate all our assets? On what grounds?”
Jennie and Melanie came forward one at a time.
It was like how they used to reason with the people in Erudia.
Nonetheless, they had forgotten one thing.
They were not in Erudia.
Reasoning meant nothing to those men in front of them.
“You want a reason? Here’s your reason! Get them!”
