Stephen grinned as he observed the man he had just rescued. At first glance, Stephen could tell that Frank was a wealthy man. But, of course, it wasn't that fact that compelled Stephen to agree to save Frank Geoff from danger. "Still got water in your head, sir?" Stephen chuckled, thinking about the nonsense he had spoken – being willing to marry the rich man's daughter. In a world with high social inequalities, it was difficult to find a partner who would accept someone without considering their background and wealth. The old man lying on the bed didn't take offense at Stephen's jest. Instead, he smiled warmly at Stephen. "No, My Son! I'm serious!" then Frank's pale face turned serious. He didn't hesitate to refer to Stephen as "son," even though he didn't know Stephen personally. This was clearly an odd behavior beyond reason. The smile on Stephen's face faded as he looked at Frank seriously. Then he said, "Please don't joke." Although Frank Geoff appeared wealthy, his swift deci
The morning sunlight dazzled Fiona's eyes. As her eyes opened, she saw Stephen's broad chest with the captivating scent of sandalwood. "Stephen..." she murmured, remembering how the aroma had filled her lungs last night, almost exploding with the burst of love. Though she had awakened, she didn't immediately get up from the bed. She was still relishing the satisfaction of their lovemaking while staying wrapped in Stephen's embrace. In her heart, she didn't want to rise and part from Stephen. With her face nestled against Stephen's chest, she tuned in to the rhythmic heartbeat of the man who had captivated her with his charm and prowess the previous night. In her heart, Fiona wondered, "Will this happiness remain the same until death separates us?" Frank Geoff's daughter let out a soft sigh. She didn't know why, but ever since her conversation with Stephen in the helicopter about his revenge plan, she felt restless. The brunette woman clung tightly to Stephen's body, as if preventing
After the conversation with Mr. Lee, that morning felt busy as Stephen hurriedly had breakfast with Fiona to ensure she wouldn't be late for campus. Afterward, Fiona, along with Oliver and Alyssa, went to Rosewind to follow her schedule.William approached Stephen, who was standing in the yard after Fiona had left. Politely, he said, "Young Master, there's something I'd like to discuss about your parents."Stephen turned to the white-haired man beside him without turning his body. "Go ahead, William!"The man in the black suit spoke, bowing his head, "I'd like to discuss this matter of significance at your parents' grave."The bright morning suddenly froze. Something he had been wanting to find for a long time. Of course, his parents' graves. There was a rush of sadness and longing in Stephen's heart. Unconsciously, the blonde man's hands clenched tightly.With a soft voice and a neutral expression, Stephen said to his personal assistant, "Take me there now!" The old man nodded obedie
Stephen's eyes narrowed as he looked at William. Then he spoke with a curious tone, "Injection?" he grinned. William nodded decisively. "Yes, you'll receive an injection derived from the eggs of a three-headed eagle." Stephen pondered in his mind. "Alright, I'm willing." The white-haired man looked relieved as Stephen agreed to accept the injection from the three-headed eagle's eggs. With a brighter expression than before, William said, "Good. Now we need to meet Professor Adriel Ayala." Stephen furrowed his brow. The name sounded so unfamiliar to him. "Who is he?" Walking together with Stephen towards the Rolls-Royce parked in the laboratory yard, William answered, "He is the only scientist who worked for your father and managed to survive." Once inside the car, William immediately drove the luxurious vehicle eastward, towards the outskirts of Windvista city. As they rode, Stephen's mind couldn't escape the image of the ruined laboratory. As far back as he could remember, he nev
Adriel pressed the buttons on the wall, entering a code to unlock the door. A moment later, the door opened, revealing a spacious laboratory with well-maintained and clean lab equipment. A man wearing a blue t-shirt entered, inviting Stephen and William to come into the laboratory. "Please come in, Young Master!" Once the three men had entered the laboratory, the door closed automatically. With a slight smile on his face, Adriel said, "You don't need to feel hesitant in this place, young master" Stephen appreciated Adriel's friendly attitude. Next, the thin-bodied professor spoke, "I will show you a serum that will change your lives forever." He smiled mysteriously. Adriel opened a drawer and took out a black remote control about the size of a hand. Without hesitation, he pressed the red button on the remote. A second later, the laboratory floor opened up, revealing a small staircase. With the secret passage now revealed, Adriel said, "The three-headed eagle egg serum is inside th
Chapter 185Stephen and Adriel's attention was drawn to the white-haired man who looked frustrated as he answered a call from someone. Stephen couldn't help but wonder who William was talking to.William spoke while clenching his fist, "No matter what happens, make sure Mr. Fabian doesn't find out that Young Master is with me!" he said with a serious tone.The voice on the other end of the phone sounded shaky, "William, they keep pressuring us to say something about Young Master! They're even threatening to fire all of us!" Unbeknownst to William, the woman who had spoken to him was hiding in a corner of the room, crouching down to avoid being noticed by Fabian Hudson's men.William's patience was wearing thin, but he couldn't afford to be reckless. Stephen and Fiona's safety was his current priority.With a calm and firm tone, William stated, "Then hold him for now! I'm heading to the Mansion. As long as you keep quiet, I'll try to save all of you!"The woman on the other end of the
The doorbell rang, startling Stephen and Adriel who were deep in conversation. They paused their talk. Stephen, curious, muttered, "What's happening? Why is William back?" Adriel didn't immediately respond to Stephen's question; he was also puzzled. The black-haired man rose from his seat and walked to the monitor screen on the table. He opened the CCTV recording and saw a pizza delivery courier wearing a cap, so his face wasn't visible. Stephen inquired curiously to Adriel, "Did you order pizza, Adriel?" The slim man in the blue t-shirt shook his head. "No." Afterward, he clasped his hands together, looking worried. On the monitor screen, the pizza delivery courier appeared impatient. He pressed the doorbell again, or rather, he was pestering the doorbell. This made him look like a mischievous child playing with the doorbell of a stranger's house. Stephen commented, "Goodness, he looks like a man with mental disturbances." The slim man in the blue t-shirt monitored the camera, f
Stephen welcomed Morgan's offer warmly. Then, Morgan led Stephen and Adriel to their VIP restaurant named the King Room. What makes the King Room at the Nuuslaq Hotel special is how its interior design blends touches of ancient Egyptian style.The room had partially white walls, while the other walls were a light brown with hieroglyph decorations that were well illuminated. The room exuded a luxurious Egyptian vibe with its black pillars accented by gold rings, and the gold color connecting the arches of the pillars to the very high ceiling.On various sides of the walls, there were statues of Egyptian gods, pharaohs, and others. Additionally, the fireplace, carpet, lamps, and candles all had an ancient Egyptian style."Welcome, Mr. Stephen, to the King Room," a waitress dressed in the traditional attire of ancient Egyptian women greeted them warmly.The woman presented the food menu and invited Stephen and Adriel to place their orders.The blond-haired man glanced at the menu briefly
