Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2105

That wound has been cleaned by himself in the dead o f the nights when he was growing up without the help of anyone. He needed affection from family. He was afraid of being abandoned. He had already made the most absolute decision. He did not want the family's properties and he did not want anything. As long as his parents were willing to care for him and acknowledge that he was a part of the family, he was willing to compromise.

He was a firm and unyielding man. He has good grades and good character and has a great talent in arts. He was gentle, calm, kind, and reliable on the surface, but no one knew how fragile he was in his heart.

How desperate was he for his family's affection? If his grandparents, parents, and his three sisters were able t o give him a little bit of warmth, just a tiny would do, and true affection, Vireo would have given his heart to the Payne family. He would have done it even if he were to die. However, when Vireo needed affection and care the most, he did not get a little bit from his parents, and yet, he still could not bear to leave them behind.

He thought to himself that he should just drift along like that. He should just lie to himself and pretend that he has a family in this world, he has his parents, grandparents, and also sisters. It was a lie but it was enough as long as he was able to get by every day.

"Then, Mom and Dad, what do you say?" Vireo asked his father with a cold expression. "You'll resolutely not rent the stores to me and let me rent the stores of the neighbors across the street, right?"

Only then did Lucius say, "Vireo, you don't understand what we meant. We are your parents, so how can we take your money? We don't want to take your money. D o you understand? But what your sisters want is fairness. Therefore, the stores are for you to use, but the money has to be collected in full. That is what we meant. You have to understand us. We are feeling upset taking your money as if our hearts are being dug out with knives. However, we have to be fair to your sisters. Don't you agree?"

"Mom and Dad, who doesn't agree?" Vireo calmly smiled. "So...is this a deal? I'll first give you ten thousand dollars, and when I have money on hand, I will give it to you as rent. You don't have to give me a discount on the rent. Just go with the market rate. Does that work?"

"Yes! Yes! This time, I'll have the final say!" His mother instantly snatched it over.

After they had taken ten thousand dollars from Holden, two of the stores were temporarily available for Vireo to rent. The following day, he started to renovate, apply for a license, purchase medicine, and s o on.

The clinic officially opened for business one month later. Vireo was not a high-achieving graduate, who had completed his seven-year combined program in the best medical school in the country and had interned at all the departments in the big hospital, for nothing. No matter if it was children, middle-aged people, or the elderly, as long as it was some minor sickness, Vireo practically was able to treat them with the most cost-effective, the least dosage of medicine, and most targeted treatment.

In just two short years, Vireo's clinic was flourishing. Not only was his business doing so well that people were lining up outside of his clinic to seek treatment, but he was getting more and more famous in the county. Everything was going well. Vireo initially thought that he was finally able to hold his head up high, and was finally about to tell his parents that he was able to support them and had made them very proud, so they could finally be at ease now, right?

However, what he did not expect was that after his clinic was opened for two years and when his business was thriving, his parents said to him with a difficult expression. "Vireo, your eldest sister doesn't want to rent the stores to you anymore."

Vireo was shocked. "Why?"

"Your sister said that the stores are hers, so the clinic should also be hers. She would apply for the license to open a clinic, and you'll be the doctor she hired," his father said, smiling. "Actually, it'll just be the same thing. You'll still be our family's doctor." 1

Vireo suddenly felt disheartened. He sneered. "Forget i t. I'm not going to continue with the clinic anymore. I will not do anything anymore. Starting tomorrow, I'll just follow both of you to the quarry and work as a laborer. From tomorrow onwards, I'll just be waiting to care for you and send you off after you pass over." His parents were speechless.
