Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2252

"Did they say anything?" Vireo calmly asked.

On the other end, the guard said reluctantly, "The old couple kept going on and on that you’re their son, you're their son, they were the ones who had raised you and they ask you to have a heart. In the end, they kept going on and on about wanting to meet you once. As long as you’re willing to meet them, they will reveal everything they know."

Vireo could not help but laugh.

That was the kind of people his adoptive parents were. He actually had already decided to not press charges against them. However, as expected of his adoptive parents, even after they had been imprisoned, they still did not forget to emotionally blackmail him. The last bit of compassion Vireo had for his adoptive parents was gone as well. All that was left i n his heart was sadness and misery. However, even if he no longer felt compassionate for his adoptive parents, Vireo still had the tolerance that he should have. "Alright, I will be here in two hours."

Since they were already in prison, theoretically speaking, Vireo was no longer able to see his adoptive parents anymore. After he arrived at the prison, he explained the situation to the guards who were watching his adoptive parents.

"I have already decided not to press charges against them for abduction," Vireo said seriously.

After all, more than thirty years had already passed since that incident. Vireo had already been registered as a resident i n that small county, and not much evidence relating to the financial transaction made by his parents back then was left behind. Therefore, as long as Vireo himself no longer pursued the matter, it would basically be impossible for his adoptive parents to be convicted.

"Mister Payne, you’re truly a good man," said the guard.

"Can I pick them up?" asked Vireo.

"You can once all the paperwork is completed."

"Alright."

The paperwork was not simple, and there were too many procedures to go through. Everything was considered to be going smoothly for Vireo, but it still took him the whole day. It was not until the afternoon that all the procedures were finally completed, and Vireo was also able to see his adoptive parents.

After being held up for a whole day, the arrogance his adoptive parents and his three sisters had were completely gone. Through the glass, Vireo was able to see that they were dispirited. However, at that moment when the door opened, which is also the moment Lucius and his wife saw Vireo, both of them immediately got arrogant again because they had already heard that they were acquitted. Also, the person who came to pick them up was their adopted son, Vireo.

"You ungrateful son of bitch! I'll beat you to a pulp today! I am not a Payne and I am not a father if I don’t beat you to a pulp!" Lucius raised his arms and was going to beat Holden up, but he was restrained by two law enforcement officers.

Right at that critical moment, Vireo received a call from Sabrina. The care that Sabrina showed to Vireo over the phone made Vireo feel the love from a family.

That also made Vireo confirm once again that his family was the ones in South City. He had never had any family in that small county as well. He was no longer Vireo Payne. At that moment, he was Holden Payne. Initially, he did not intend to have any more compassion for his adoptive parents, and he only wanted to let them go and fend for themselves. At that moment, after he received Sabrina’s call, and when h e looked at his adoptive parents' expression of wanting to eat him alive again, Vireo became even more determined. He wanted to sever all ties with his adoptive parents from then on.

"Dad, Mom," Vireo called out calmly. There was a pause before he smiled miserably." You're free now. From now on, nobody will pursue the matter of whether you had abducted a child or not."

Hearing Vireo saying that, Lucius felt that h e was even more justified. The two law enforcement officers were restraining his arms, but he was still struggling and shouting angrily. "You ungrateful jerk and heartless asshole! If you think you're so capable, don’t call us mom and dad! If you think you're so capable, don't let us out! We're really not going to leave! We'll sit in prison for the rest of our lives! Hmph! Now, it's not you who does not acknowledge us a s your parents!"
