Chapter 1930
“That’s not true!”
At the most critical moment, a slender figure dashed into the room. She was just like a gigantic hand that had suddenly appeared in the stormy seas, stabilizing the boat that was just about to capsize.
“That isn’t it, Ian. Indeed, that gene runs in the Soprano family. However, Aunt Sabrina is fine. Also, there isn’t anyone in the Soprano family who is like Uncle Sebastian. Haven’t you realized that?”
That person was Susan, who had been listening to the conversation outside.
She stood next to Ian while holding his hands which were trembling slightly.
Even though it was already summer, his hands were so cold that Susan could not help but shudder.
Ian was rather stunned to see the woman as he had not expected her to appear suddenly.
“I… It was just a casual remark.” A look of panic flashed across Ian’s eyes as he did not want to continue discussing that topic.
He tried to retract his hand, but Susan tightened her grip on his hands as she said, “No, Ian, hear me out. What happened to Uncle Sebastian has got nothing to do with genetics. Well, perhaps there’s a slight connection, but it’s mainly because of his childhood experiences and other things that he had encountered as an adult.”
Taking a pause, she continued, “But you’re not the same, right? You grew up in a loving environment with so many people caring about you. There’s no reason you would be like Uncle Sebastian. If a person walks down the wrong path, most of the time, it’s due to their own choices and factors other than genetics. Ian, don’t you understand that?”
Susan started choking up at the end of her sentence.
In fact, she was so scared that tears started streaming down her face.
That was because she knew what that meant to the young man in front of her. When she first heard the truth, she had a hard time accepting it as well, not to mention Ian, who was directly affected by it.
Besides, he was in so much agony that he had even chosen to forget his memories.
Susan looked up at Ian, her teary eyes filled with fear and unease. She was grabbing Ian’s hands so tightly that her fingers had turned white.
“Ian, you-”
“All right. Let’s go out first and let them talk.” Before Vivian could finish her sentence, Kurt quickly interrupted her and dragged her out of the bedroom.
Vivian did not mean to hurt Ian. She had only revealed the truth as she was too worried about her brother.
However, even if she had not said it, it was just a matter of time before Ian would find out.
