Chapter 452 8he Woke up
Soon the news of the old King’s serious ill spread throughout Brévan, and it started to stir up trouble. Everyone knew very well in their hearts that the old King was seriously ill, which
meant that a new King was about to take the throne. But the point was… Who would be the new King? Alex asked the maid to heat the dishes and bring them back to the table. At the round dining table, Bonnie and Stephen were seated opposite each other.
Even though Stephen knew that Zayla was not caught by Brendis’ people, he was still worried because there was no news from her. Bonnie put a big chicken leg into his bowl.
“Little man, take your meals. I will listen to Alex and stay at home during this time. I won’t go anywhere or cause you any trouble.” “I’m really sorry about Zayla’s matter. You guys were there to save me… I’m so useless.”
Apart from sincerity, Bonnie looked sorry on her face. She was just a teenager. How could she not be afraid in such a dangerous and chaotic situation? Stephen looked at the meat in his bowl and explained. “If you hadn’t shown the way, we wouldn’t have escaped.”
“In such a chaotic situation, it is impossible for Zayla and me to leave you behind, let alone you are my savior.” “I didn’t mean to blame you. Please don’t have a psychological burden. I’m just worried about Zayla, so I lost my
appetite.” With that said, he put the chicken leg back into Bonnie’s bowl. Bonnie looked at him, thinking that he hadn’t forgiven herself, so she asked anxiously.
“Then why did you give me back the chicken leg?” “If you eat this chicken leg, your legs won’t be weak when you encounter danger in the future.”
When Bonnie heard this, she smiled a little embarrassedly. She immediately took a bite and said frankly, “Don’t worry, little man. I’ll eat this chicken leg. Next time I encounter danger, I will definitely run faster than anyone else. I won’t cause any trouble for you!” Stephen nodded, “Then I’ll just wait and see.”
“Sure!” Bonnie nodded vigorously, put more food into Stephen’s bowl, and said, “Brendis didn’t catch Zayla, so we have to believe that Zayla is blessed, She will be fine.”
“Little man, you have to take good care of your body. Take your meals. Then, you can have the strength to look for her.” What Bonnie said was quite right. He could not get sick at this time.
There were undergoing tremendous changes in Brevan between day and night. He must find Zayla as soon as possible and bring her back to Harper.
They would leave this chaos here behind. They were definitely not the ones to take care of this mess. As for Lincoln, they had already risked their lives to save him. But they were not from Brevan, so why should they get involved?
In the past, Brendis used his biological parents to threaten Stephen and force Stephen to listen to him. Now, in Brendis’ perception, Stephen was dead, so his biological parents were probably safe. As a dead man, he no longer needed to be threatened by Brendis!
And so many years of relief and help, the grace of giving life to him by his biological parents, had also paid off. From now on, there would only be Stephen, the illegitimate son of the
Vargas family and Zayla’s brother. There was no longer that military counsellor behind the scene who acted against his conscience. “Little man? What’s wrong with you?” Bonnie reached out and waved in front of
Stephen’s eyes. “I’m wondering why you keep calling me little man?” Stephen didn’t really dislike this name, but it sounded weird. Bonnie’s face was a little red. She
lowered her head to eat and said evasively, “That’s just the nickname I gave you casually. It’s catchy. Don’t think too much about it!” Stephen shook his head, “The name is
just something that people call me with. You can call me that if you want.” He didn’t care. But he didn’t want to hear Zayla call him brother anymore. What he wanted to be, was not her brother.
Bonnie felt that Stephen was a little absent-minded but still talked to him a lot. After dinner, Stephen asked Bonnie to borrow her phone. He called his biological parents.
After the call was connected, there was a sound of “Hello” from the other end of the phone. It was his biological father’s voice. Stephen didn’t speak but coughed.
His biological father seemed to realize something, and his trembling voice choked with sobs. “We are very safe. The money you gave is so much that it is enough for the rest of our lives.”
“I know you blame us, but we were too poor at the time and couldn’t afford to raise you. We left you in the hospital to allow you to choose your life again.”
“You don’t have to worry about us. We are fine. Our son is dead, and the tombstone has been erected. As long as we can still walk, we will visit the grave once in a while.”
“Although we are your biological parents, we haven’t been able to do anything for you in this life, so let’s consider this the only thing we can do for you.” “You can live life without us.”
The moment he hung up the farewell call, Stephen’s eyes were a little wet and uncontrollably red. He felt heavy in his heart, but his breathing was relaxed. He took a deep breath, feeling relieved.
” The rest of his life would be his own. At this time, Bonnie walked out of the villa. “Little man?” Stephen held back his tears, pretended to act normal, and answered, “Yes?”
“I just told my brother that I’m safe, but my brother repeatedly told me the fact that Zayla is missing should not be known by Lincoln and told me to keep it absolutely secret.” “So I’m here to tell you that you will be Lincoln’s future brother-in-law, and if Lincoln contacts you, you must not tell him about Zayla.”
Stephen didn’t respond. He looked at Bonnie and said firmly, “I don’t know him well, and I don’t even have his contact information. I’m not his future brother-in-law.”
After saying that, Stephen walked towards the villa. Bonnie scratched her head with a dazed expression, standing where she was and muttering to herself… “He is not? Zayla said that she and Lincoln are obsessed with each other.”
“Besides, they have held hands. Maybe they have also kissed and even slept together.” “Isn’t little man the future brother-in-law of Lincoln? What’s wrong? I didn’t say anything wrong.” The next day, Zayla woke up.
