Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2099

He thought that his son would say that. If his son had said that, then he would be thinking what he and his wife were thinking.

However, Vireo cried even more. He looked straight at his father. "Dad, I am adopted by the Payne family and I am not your biological child, right?"

Lucius was stunned. His wife also said in a panic," Vireo, what nonsense are you talking about? How could you say that? Who told you that?"

Holden's voice was still very miserable. It was both miserable and helpless. He was having a sense of fear and his tone was very dejected. "I had often heard you say that I am here to snatch away the family's properties. I don't know what the family's properties are and I had never thought of snatching it away. It's our family's things, so what is the need for me to snatch it?"

Both Lucius and his wife were speechless.

"But, Dad, Mom, I understand what it means to be adopted. Being adopted meant that I am different from my sisters. I am not your biological child. My sisters are your biological children. Am I right?"

What he asked made Lucius and his wife awkward.

"Even if you don't answer me, I knew it as well. You guys have always been saying that I am here to take away your family's properties. You have always been loving my sisters, but you have never loved me. I had witnessed Grandma boiling the eggs of our own free range chickens and only giving them to my sisters but not me. I wanted to have it very much, but Grandma said that I had already snatched away the family's properties from my sisters, so I should eat less. Dad, Mom, am I truly adopted? If I am adopted and you're afraid that I am here to snatch away your family's properties, could you..." Vireo continued.

At that moment when Vireo was saying that, his tears streamed down his cheeks. However, he had always been a very composed boy who had his own ideas. Even if he was feeling in pain, he still had to say it out loud, "Could you please send me back to my biological parents? I also want to be loved by my parents like my sisters."

When his mother heard him saying that, she instantly felt heartbroken and she said, hugging him. "I'm sorry, my good son. I'm sorry. I will love you from now on. I will love you like how I love your sisters. My son... 11

From then on, Vireo's life in the Payne family got a little better. His grandparents never mentioned that h e was an adopted child in front of him anymore.

Vireo's sisters did not dare to openly bully him again a s well. Also, his father also did not beat him up for nothing anymore. However, after that incident, Vireo also could clearly sense that the Payne family still treated him like an outsider. For example, when the whole family, who was originally talking to each other, saw that Vireo had returned, they never continued their conversation anymore. Although his sisters were polite to him, they were just being polite. He never felt that they were treating him like their own brother. Vireo, who was still very young, felt as if he had been isolated by the people in that house.

Fortunately, he was a boy who was born with a pure and kind nature, and his grades have always been the top in his class and his entire grade. With all that supporting him, his life was not that bad. He thought t o himself that he certainly would make a name of himself one day. He would let his parents know that h e was not there to snatch away the Payne family's properties. He would bring even more fame and glory t o the Payne family. He would let his sisters have even more things.

Vireo, who was a teenager in high school, had always been carrying such a dream in his heart. Throughout his high school years, he worked even hard, especially in his senior year. He did plenty of practice tests and was extremely confident that he was able to get into one of the top colleges in the country.

However, on the day before his college entrance test, his father came into his stuffy room and said something to him.

"Vireo, don't take the college entrance test," said his father very casually.
