Vireo had always known what should and should not b e taken. Could a few hundred million dollars even be enough to measure the value of half of the Ford family's empire? Besides, the reason the Ford family was so powerful that it became world-renowned was all Sebastian's efforts in the last decade. It was Sebastian who made the Ford family's assets increase tenfold. Vireo was an outsider, so what right did he have to take other people's assets for nothing? He did not want that. He only wanted a family's love, and that would be enough.
Vireo smiled very faintly. His deep voice was very therapeutic. "It's alright, Mister Ford. Actually, there's no need for a lot of money. It's best that it's just enough to spend and use. I am a surgeon at the best hospital in South City. My salary every month is also considered at a medium to a high range in this city. I think it'll just be enough for me to have a house in South City to raise a family."
After saying that, Vireo looked at Isadora and also Minerva. He knew that Isadora had taken him for Holden. In fact, he himself had taken him for Holden. I f it was before he had met Isadora and Minerva, he would have thought that that distant dreamland was simply just a dream. When he saw Isadora and Minerva, he knew that it must have been an effect created by some mystery in this universe that had yet t o be explored. For example, resurrection? Had he been resurrected? As a modern medical practitioner, Vireo did not believe in that very much. However, he had also very sincerely accepted it. His brain was damaged and it was irreversibly damaged. At that moment, his brain was not his own. There was another soul living in his brain. That person's name was Holden Payne.
Holden wanted to support his niece's college education. He did not want to let that woman who loved him be sad. Therefore, the thing that Holden wanted to do the most was to marry Isadora and let this woman, who had been wandering since childhood, also have a home, and maybe they would even have many children in the future. There was Minerva as well. He would pay for all the expenses needed for her college. In the future, after she had graduated, he would pass on all of his superb skills as a doctor to her. He was thinking that he could fulfill all that with his own abilities.
"I would treat you as my own brother. I don't have any family in my life. I'm very happy to have a brother, a sister-in-law, as well as a niece and a nephew. I truly have many loved ones all of a sudden," said Vireo with a smile.
When Vireo looked at Sabrina, there was a kind of feeling that he had known her in the past and present i n his gaze. It was an indescribable feeling. He simply felt very affectionate. When he saw Sabrina smile, he would feel that his life was given to him by Sabrina. A s Vireo, he had never met Sabrina before. However, he knew that certainly must be the memory that was left behind in Holden's mind. Therefore, Vireo said very solemnly, "In the future, I simply am Holden Payne."
Hearing Holden saying that, Sabrina instantly had tears welled up in her eyes and she immediately said," You must have been quite tired after that operation. After you've finished your meal, go and first take a rest. After you're well-rested, we'll take you to...your mother's grave to take a look."
Mother? His mother's grave? He suddenly wanted it very badly.
"Sure, alright," Vireo gladly agreed.
He took a look at the time and it was indeed time for him to return. The house that he rented still needed a little tidying before he could officially move in. After h e got up, Vireo said goodbye to everyone present." Sebastian, Sabrina, my little niece and nephew, I had performed an operation that lasted a few hours, so I a m indeed a little tired. I'll first return to the place I'm staying in to tidy it up. I'll invite you to my house another day. I'll first take my leave."
After that, he got up with a smile and wanted to leave.
"Holden...," Isadora, who had not been saying anything, got up and called out to Holden. She already knew that the man in front of him was not Holden. However, she still wanted to call him "Holden."
Holden turned his head around and looked at Isadora gently. "Isadora?" "I..." Isadora's face suddenly became thoroughly flushed. However, she did not back down. She lifted her flushed cheeks and looked at Holden with a brave gaze. "Holden, I... I want to follow you home. I want to g o back to your home." Vireo was speechless.
