Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2097

Their third daughter was Abigail Payne. All three of the daughters were the apples in Lucius and his wife's eyes. Their only son, Vireo, was the only one who had been treated differently. Lucius and his wife had ignored him since the day they had adopted him.

However, Vireo did not understand it when he was still a child. Why was it that the other boys in other families had three sisters before him, the boy was treated like a little king in the family, but things were different in his family?

The child, who was only a few years old, had to wear his sister's hand-me-down shoes. Usually, when they were having a meal together, their parents would give the delicious food to his three sisters as much as they could. He was only able to have some if there were any leftovers. Most of the time, Vireo was standing at the side watching his three sisters wearing beautiful and stylish dresses, having chocolates and all kinds of snacks, while he, on the other hand, was only able to watch.

He was just like an outsider. His three sisters did not love him much as well. From time to time, they would even roll their eyes at him. "Why must we give our family's property to you?"

When Vireo was still a child, he did not understand all that. He was very sensible. He just thought that maybe his parents were training him so that he could be a great man who could stand tall in the future, so they never spoiled him like how they spoiled his sisters. After he had figured that out, he felt happy instead. He felt that he already had three sisters in the family, but he was the only boy. Therefore, he must not fail to meet his parents' and his sister's expectations. He certainly would become a great man who could stand tall.

In fact, on a subconscious level, Vireo also wanted to evoke the care and love for him in his parents. He wanted them to care and love him like how they did to his sisters. Therefore, he studied with all his might and he did all the chores in the house with all his might. When he saw his third sister, who was three years older than him, was bullied by others, Vireo, who was only almost eight years old, would even risk his own safety to protect his sister and fight with those bigger children who were taller than him. Even though he was bleeding from his head after being beaten up, he still bravely looked at Abigail. "Abigail, don't be afraid. I will protect you. I will never let you b e bullied. Hurry up and go home. Don't stay here. This way, they will never be able to beat you up."

His sister, Abigail, immediately nodded. "Vireo, I'll go ahead and run."

Abigail then ran off without even looking back. She left Vireo behind to be beaten up so badly that his teeth were loose, one of his legs almost became crippled, and he grimaced in pain. However, he was very happy in his heart. He had protected his sisters.
