Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 1923

Although he was only eighteen years old, he was not a fool. He had worked at a restaurant during that period, so he knew all about surveillance and he even knew where the wires were. When he had just entered the door, he had already severed all the surveillance wires with his knife. He had been wearing gloves when he was touching the windows and everywhere else. He was not trying to avoid detection. He just thought that he could buy himself a few more days to get his mother and sister settled down. He would turn himself in. Of course, before he turned himself in, he had to find a way to get that mansion under Delmont's name to be transferred to his sister and have it under her name instead. After all, his sister should have a share of Delmont's properties, to begin with!

His sister was still muttering softly like a mentally disturbed person. "Malvolio, it's my fault. Delmont and Joy had repeatedly told me not to let Brooke know that I am also Delmont's daughter. However, I was the one who told Brooke. Brooke then fell down the stairs. This was the first crime that I had committed..."

"You have not committed any crime," said Malvolio.

Eira did not dare to believe it. "What did you say?"

"To begin with, you are Delmont's daughter. You didn't lie. You're just telling the truth. Delmont has the obligation to support you. He has been living in such a big mansion and driving branded cars, but he only gave you a thousand dollars a month for child support. That is not enough at all. With his income, it's not even much if he were to give you ten thousand dollars every month. Not only should he give you money, but he also can't refuse you calling him your dad. It's not your fault that he did not allow you to disclose the father-daughter relationship between you and him. That's Delmont's fault. Delmont should be punished. He is the one who should go to prison."

In the early winter's night, the bare-chested Malvolio was holding hands with Eira, who was wearing her brother's clothes.

"But...I'm a thief." Eira had to confess to his brother. Even if she would be beaten, she had to come clean. That was because Eira knew that in this world, only her brother could help her, and only her brother loved her.

"You're not a thief," said Malvolio.

"I really had stolen twice..."

"That was your father's house. They were the ones who let you in. It's not stealing when you're taking your father's things," said Malvolio.

"But..."

"You're not a thief, you didn't lie, and you also didn't intimidate your sister. It's their fault. Their whole family deserves to die! They were inhumane, Eira." Malvolio turned his head back, squatted, and consoled his sister in an incredibly gentle manner.

"Really? Malvolio?" asked Eira.

"Really!"
