Chapter 514 The Only Possibility

“Sis, I wonder if there is a place for me in your heart.” Stephen called her sis again as he did when he was a child in

exactly the same tone, with a little reluctance in the gentleness, but the affection was evident. “Of course!” Zayla

still replied without hesitation.

“Then… I’ll be at ease.” Stephen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The phone call was the best disguise for his

emotion. Then, he added, “I know that there’s a big obstacle between you and Lincoln, and you guys should fight

hard to be together because of his status.” So don’t need to worry about everything in Harper. What I can do for

you is to save you from any worries.” Zayla said softly, “Stephen, thank you.” “You just apologized to me, and now

you thank me?”

“I’m being polite.” Stephen laughed and said, “Mom and Dad knew we were back. They put down their business and

came back immediately. Upon seeing me, Mom went on caring about me, and Dad gave me a good scolding.”

“So, at that time, I said you were on a business trip. When Dad heard this, he immediately changed his target.”

Zayla did a double-take before saying, “Stephen, were you selling your sister? But this is my honor!” “Silly Zayla, I

sold you and you’re saying that?”

“Anyway, we are all a family.” When Stephen heard Zayla’s words, he immediately broke into a fit of giggles. Facing

her, he was always gentle and pampering. Whenever speaking to her, he was either smiling or ready to smile.

“About your going to Brevan, I didn’t tell them. I just said that you were on a business trip because of the project. I

think… Well, it’s such an important matter. You should tell them in person when you return in triumph.” Return in

triumph? Zayla burst out laughing. “Yeah, the first thing I’ll do when I come back is to treat you to dinner.”

“Then… I’ll wait.” After the call ended, Zayla put away her phone and prepared to get off the car. And similarly, at

this moment in Harper, Stephen put down his phone and clasped his hands against his forehead…

If he had been braver back then, expressed his thoughts earlier, and confided his feelings for her earlier, would

everything have been different today? It was because he was not courageous enough and was afraid of expressing

his love that broke the original balance between them and made their relationship become awkward. But now, he

hated himself for backing down.

Because now, that retreat had become the only possibility in his heart. Possibly, everything would turn out different

if he didn’t back off. Possibly, he would no longer be her brother.

Theodore and Scarlet stood outside the door, looking at Stephen who was sitting at the table through the gap in the

door. As a parent, they didn’t feel good seeing how depressing their son was. The two quietly closed the door and

walked a little further away.

“Does Zayla have another choice?” Scarlet asked in a low voice. Theodore nodded and said, “I guess so, from the

way Stephen behaves.” Scarlet let out a soft sigh. Although Stephen was not the biological child of the two of them,

they always regarded him as their own. In order to make this child relatively legitimate, Theodore even bore the

name of cheating in marriage, turning Stephen from an adopted child into an illegitimate child…

It was not uncommon for rich people to have illegitimate children in this huge upper-class circle, but Theodore and

his wife were known as a model couple!

When it was revealed that Stephen was an adopted son, it also caused a loss to the shares of the Vargas Group. But

Theodore still resolutely admitted Stephen’s identity and said that his wife was willing to accept him and liked him

very much.

But this move made Theodore a joke among the upper class at that time, but because of the strength of the Vargas

family, they didn’t dare to talk about it face to face. However, they had changed from a “model couple” to a “weird

couple”. They carried such ridicule for nothing else. After some weighing, they realized that Stephen would be

ridiculed regardless of whether he was the illegitimate child or the adopted child, but the status of the illegitimate

child was higher than that of the adopted child! After all… it showed that Stephen and Theodore were related by

blood. Stephen did not disappoint the two of them and he had been exceptionally good since he was a child.

Theodore expressed extreme trust in him and asked Stephen to start from the bottom. After Stephen delivered

impressive results, Theodore overcame all difficulties and made him the president of the Vargas Group. But…
