Chapter 137 “You're lucky you weren't beaten to death. You must have a death wish to dare to provoke a mentally ill person with aggressive tendencies,” the officer reprimanded the man sternly. The man seemed visibly terrified and stopped shouting.

Ewan looked at Steven and respectfully said, “Mr. Lincoln, it’s tto Steven reached for my hand, whispering, “Stephie, let's go home.” However, | couldn't understand why | felt inexplicably annoyed.

go home.” At the door, the girl's family arrived to pick her up, and their well-off appearance putat ease.

“Goodbye, Miss, Mister. Until next time.” The girl waved. The man who cto pick her up looked authoritative and respectable.

“Thank you both for this,” the man said politely.

“You're welcome,” | replied with a polite smile.

Steven looked at him warily and shieldedbehind him.

The man glanced at Steven with a smile. “Well, | won't disturb you any longer.” But Steven still seemed protective even when everyone was gone.

Sighing, | ushered him into the car.

On the way back, Steven fell asleep against the window.

| found myself gazing at Steven, feeling a bit lost in thought. His quiet demeanor was truly mesmerizing.

“Mrs. Lincoln, | apologize for the fright. Mr. Lincoln rarely has episodes unless provoked,” Ewan explained.

| stayed quiet until we got home. After giving Steven cold medicine and helping him sleep, | finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Ewan, how long have you known Steven?” | asked as we left the room.

“I've known him since he was 14 years old. That was the year the Lincoln family found him,” Ewan replied.

“And back then...” | was curious about what Steven was like as a teenager.

“He was exceptional,” Ewan remarked with a hint of nostalgia. “But being too exceptional is a Chapter 137 curse in high society.” Ewan had a point.

After a moment of contemplation, | gently asked, “When was he diagnosed with his condition? “At 19 years old, he went through a traumatic experience,” Ewan mentioned, leadingto a r small attic room filled with Steve’s memorabilia-including photos, certificates, and trophies.

Astonished, | stood frozen in the room filled with his awards and certificates.

These were collected by Mr. Andy. He loved Mr. Lincoln dearly when he was alive, but his affection was tempered,” Ewan explained. He pointed out each item. “This one’s from when Mr. Lincoln joined the advanced classes.” Looking at the young man in the photos, | suddenly felt a headache coming on.

It all felt so familiar.

The young man in the photos had a radiant smile. At that time, Steve was truly pure and flawless.

Holding his trophy, he definitely stood out in the crowd.

“A double degree?” Glancing at Steven's certificate, | was momentarily surprised, but then it all fell into place.

He entered university at just 14 years old, so it wasn’t surprising that he had finished both degrees by the age of 20 years old.

Despite his young age, Steven excelled in multiple subjects with a perfect 4.0 CGPA, inevitably sparking jealousy among his peers.

“What's this?” In the far corner, | spotted a group photo taken at the orphanage.

“This is a photo taken when Mr. Lincoln was admitted to the advanced classes. It was a farewell from the orphanage,” Ewan explained proudly.

The pride on his face suggested that he regarded Steven as his own child.

As | carefully examined the photo, I could still discern sfamiliar faces despite the changes that cwith age.

In the corner of the last row, | spotted Stephany’s classmate, Howard Zachman, whom | had met at the class reunion.

It appeared that Howard hadn’t been adopted before Steven astonished the entire city of Huma with his brilliance.

Chapter 137 “Was it only after Steven's brilliance made waves during the Genius Showdown that the Lincoln family found him?” | asked as | suspected there to be a conspiracy behind all this.

“Not quite,” Ewan confessed truthfully.

“The Lincoln family knew about Mr. Lincoln all along. But it wasn’t until Mr. Lincoln Senior gave his approval that anyone dared to bring him back. Only after Mr. Lincoln's brilliance caught the city’s attention did Mr. Lincoln Senior allow us to officially recognize him as part of the family.”
