Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart (Sebastian) novel Chapter 2096

Chapter 2096

A miserable expression flashed across vireo's face, who was he? He was very lost, and yet, he also seemed to be very clear. At that moment when he saw Sebastian, he also felt a sense of familiarity. He felt a kind of strong kinship as if he had met him before.

Therefore, when Sebastian asked him who he was, he felt very lost in his heart. Was he Holden Payne?

Ever since he had regained his senses, vireo had been asking himself this question in his heart. Prior to that moment when he met Minerva, Isadora, and Aino, he vaguely felt that he had been dreaming or it may have been a side effect his condition had left him. However, after he had met the three girls, he suddenly felt emotional that nothing was too strange in this great big world.

There were endless wonders in this universe and it was something that nobody could figure out. Any kind of mystery could happen in this universe. For example, him, Vireo Payne.

vireo's hometown was in an incomparably underdeveloped county in the central region of the country. Although he had lived in a very undeveloped place, Vireo's family was quite wealthy. They were considered one of the most well-doing families around the Merchant Lane area in Chever County. When Vireo was still very young, the Payne family had no less than twenty storefronts in the whole Merchant Lane. At that time, the Payne family truly was living the luxurious lifestyle and all of the business owners at the Merchant Lane were jealous of the Payne family.

Logically speaking, being a boy born in such a family, the boy’s status in the family should be like a little king. However, it was not like that for vireo. It was not until he turned eight that he learned that he was adopted. He was not the biological son of his father, Lucius Payne. He already had three sisters before him, and when his mother gave birth to his third sister, Abigail Payne, she was no longer able to carry a child anymore. 1

Back in that era, divorce was not common. Also, the mindset of the small country was mainly very conservative. If there were no sons in any of the families, even if it was a big family with huge businesses, it was also very difficult for the family to be supported. Without any choice, the master of the house, Lucius, entrusted someone to help him adopt an illegitimate child from another place.

The adopted child was truly an illegitimate child. It was said that the child's father was a very prestigious businessman. The child's mother was just a small secretary by the side of the child's father. When she was involved with the child's father, his company was still growing on an upward trajectory, and he and his wife were building their business together, so the man was very afraid that his wife would find out about this matter. He then gave the secretary a sum of money and asked her, who had just gotten pregnant, to disappear without a trace.

The secretary could not bear to get rid of the child, so she wanted to wait until the child was born, and then bring the child to his father and ask for some compensation. However, she learned that that was impossible. The secretary was also just a hair's breadth away from death in that kind of situation at that moment. It was already a great blessing to be able to escape with her life and with the child.
