Chapter 791 Everyone gathered at the mountaintop villa to celebrate Steven and Stephanie's return.

Michael left after dropping the kids. He felt too ashamed to join the gathering and did not want to be there. Seeing them happy only made him feel worse although the villa belonged to him.

"The view here is magnificent." Rachel stood on the balcony as she tended to the barbecue. She then opened her arms wide to embrace the evening breeze and said, "It feels so good now that everything is over." Everything was over it seemed like they had won, but there was no winner in this silent war.

Joel had been wearing a gloomy expression from the start. He sat in a corner as he sneaked glances at Stephanie. He was afraid that she might beat him up again.

"What are you looking at? Aren't you eating?" Eason patted the hat on Joel's head and asked, "Why do you have a hat on when it's nighttime?" Joel glanced at him and said, "My hair hasn't grown back yet. A certain someone split the back of my head open and left a scar there. The big bald spot is beyond hideous!" He grumbled and glared angrily at Stephanie. "She didn't hold back at all." "Would that crazy sister of yours have fallen for it if she held back?" Eason was completely taken with Stephanie now, finding her decisive, clever, and brave. Not only did she rescue Steven on her own, but she even turned the tide and completely eliminated the threat of GenSociety.

"You've changed," Joel said as he looked at him. "Now, you only have eyes for Stephanie." Eason rolled his eyes before stuffing a grilled sausage into Joel's mouth. Joel took a bite before glumly sipping on his beer.

Meanwhile, Ashton and Xan were curiously watching Zion, who was at the other corner. "The food smells good, Zion!" Sure enough, their inner children were only awoken in the presence of food. They were both practically drooling now.

"My father's a barbecue chef. Many restaurants fought over him back when he was younger. He has a secret recipe that he passed down to me," Zion said with a smile.

He then handed each of them a perfectly cooked barbecue rib. "Be careful, it's hot!" Ashton was too impatient to wait and took a bite, burning his tongue. His eyes reddened as he looked pitifully at Steven.

Stephanie was slicing an apple while leaning against Steven and accidentally cut her hand. He quickly pulled her into his arms and anxiously inspected her wound, fussing over her with iodine and band-aids.

He did not notice the way Ashton had his tongue out, looking pitiful for stime. Ashton ended up upset and crying. "Her wound has already healed, Dad. Look at my blister instead!" Only then did Steven look up and see Ashton, who was anxiously standing by the side with his tongue out. Stephanie chuckled and said, "That's the price for being impatient. Go get sice water." Ashton turned and ran away to take a sip of his iced fruit juice, keeping the ice in his mouth.

The evening breeze felt lovely. Stephanie leaned in Steven's embrace and whispered, "We won, right?" She wondered if everything had truly ended or was such a pleasant life only in her dreams.

"Alright guys, the food's ready! Let's have a toast to celebrate that we're all here together! Eason gathered everyone for a drink. "Let's drink until we can't!" Everyone was in high spirits as they got into the celebration.

Everything seemed to be moving in a better direction-it was all so perfect.

Stephanie let loose and ended up tipsy, falling asleep in Steven's arms.

Even Rachel had one too many We had to drink. They had an unspoken agreement not to mention GenSociety. Instead, they shared everyday anecdotes.

Rachel vented about her work frustrations, shared stories about quirky guys she encountered, and recounted the hilarious experiences of her colleagues' blind dates.
