After saying these words, Eugene left, but Zion was in a mess.
What did he mean by saying that he was Nathaniel's son?
What did he mean by keeping a low profile?
Wasn't he low profile enough?
He didn't beat the drum and say anything else.
All of a sudden, Zion realized something. He took out his mobile phone and turned on the camera function. When the camera was aimed at him, he saw that his neck was full of hickeys.
Well, at this moment, if he had a daughter, he would probably want to destroy that guy.
Eugene got on the plane and asked someone to take off, leaving no chance for Zion.
Sooner or later, he would be his son-in-law. Now, he couldn't bear to see him doing something to her daughter.
Then he looked at the exhausted Evangeline, who was sleeping soundly. Eugene's heart was so cold.
Zion watched the plane get farther and farther away. Finally, he could no longer see it. It was as if something was missing in his heart, and it was no longer complete.
He went back to his villa. It was so empty that he was not used to it.
Zion was about to go back to his room to take a shower when he heard that a certain room had been opened. Esmeralda leaned against the door with her cane and looked at Zion with a complicated expression.
He had forgotten about her.
"Do you have something to ask me?"
"Are you really not my brother?"
The incident with the Laurent family had already been blown up.
It was a joyous celebration in the whole border area, and the legend about Zion was also publicized.
Esmeralda saw it when she played with her phone, and then she was stunned.
How was that possible?
But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the Laurent family could not produce such a good son like Nathaniel.
However, her heart was suddenly filled with disappointment and sadness.
Zion looked at her and said indifferently, "Serena has a cooperation with the Mo family, so she kept you safe. You're not a child of the Laurent family, and you didn't do anything against reason. So it has nothing to do with you whether I'm Klaus or not."
"But you are not my brother. In the future, I will..."
Esmeralda suddenly shut her mouth.
What?
She could no longer stay by his side as his sister.
Esmeralda knew that her feelings for Zion were not romantic. It was really the feeling of being a brother and sister.
She was the only child. Although there were many older brothers and sisters, there was no family affection in the Laurent family. In addition to her mother, Zion and Evangeline were the only ones who had given her family warmth.
She had thought that she could continue to stay by Zion's side as the tenth daughter of the Laurent family, but she hadn't expected that Zion wasn't Klaus at all.
His identity was noble and sacred. It was something that she, a member of a dark family, could not touch.
Esmeralda suddenly felt like crying. Her eyes were red like a rabbit's.
In fact, Esmeralda and Rita didn't look alike at all, but Zion inexplicably thought of Rita.
He didn't know how the girl was doing.
As for her thoughts, Zion could actually guess a few things. If it was someone else, he could ignore them. However, when he thought of Evangeline and the interaction of her and Esmeralda, Zion's heart softened a little.
You can treat me as brother-in-law in the
future."
