Chapter 799 Ashton fell silent for the longest twithout moving.
Steven took Stephanie's hand and dragged her to the side. "Both Ashton and Xan are smart. If we could notice that something was wrong with the principal, surely Ashton must've noticed it as well." Taken aback, Stephanie calmed herself down and pondered about it. Only then did she realize what he was saying. Indeed, impulse was an innate human emotion. When you cared too much about someone and placed too much importance in that relationship, your judgment would be clouded, turning you irrational.
Stephanie sat on the couch silently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore this, she had never thought she was a complete and independent individual. Never had she expected herself to beca mother someday.
She went from feeling out of place among humans to gradually blending in, and now, she had fully assimilated. Stephanie chuckled, not necessarily finding it a bad thing.
She was now becoming more like an ordinary mother and no longer stood out. She no longer bore the labels of " genetic modification", "clone", "genius", and "experimental subject".
Stephanie was just an ordinary human being. She was willing to blend into ordinary humans and becone of them in order to provide her family with the simplicity and security everyone longed for.
"Chere, Ashton." She reached out to Ashton.
He walked over to her with his head hung low.
Stephanie said, "There are many things you shouldn't be worried about when you're still this young. Now that you're a part of this society, you should focus on fully immersing yourself in the world meant for kids your age. Just leave the rest to us." She comforted Ashton, reminding him not to bear the risk of growing up in a dangerous place just to protect his family. He was still young, and this wasn't something he should be worrying about.
"If I slowly blend in after going over, I'll be able to take over GenSociety once I grow older. I'll be able to protect all of you then." Ashton nervously glanced at Stephanie and Steven, wanting them to believe in him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs he was still young, they wouldn't be too wary of him. They would surely try to "assimilate" him to match their values.
Ashton wanted to pretend to be assimilated. Like Andy, he wanted to slowly work his way up to the top position of the Ulophia branch of GenSociety. He wanted to becsomeone who would be able to protect Steven, Stephanie, and Xan.
He was determined to shoulder the burden alone.
Stephanie smiled, feeling bittersweet.
Sthings couldn't be avoided, nor did she want to avoid them. Even Ashton wanted to hold their family together, what more Steven and her? Steven said, "As your parents, it's our responsibility to protect both of you as you grow. What we want the most is for you to grow up safe, healthy, and happy. We want you two to experience the life that other kids have at least until you becadults." He looked at Ashton and Xan."Remember that it's our duty as your parents to fight for your future, even if it means making sacrifices.
"But if something happens to us along the way, it'll be up to both of you to carry on our effort. By moving forward generations by generations, we'll be able to cout of the tunnel and see the light someday."
