Chapter 2243
"I do love vireo."
Elsa shook her head. "I know. You are his adoptive mother, so you indeed had loved him. However, that was you loving your adopted son. That has nothing to do with me at all. I will not look into the matter of you buying your son anymore. We have nothing to do with each other anymore from now on. My son's name is Holden Payne. He was the child that I had with the man I once loved. As for your adopted son, whether you had abused him to death or not, it's up to the police to solve the case. It has nothing to do with me. I am here today because I want to see my son. He had just finished performing an operation. He truly has worked very hard. I want to take him home. I've already made some food, and I'm waiting for him to come home to have dinner."
After that, Elsa raised her gaze and looked at Vireo with an affectionate expression. "Holden, let's go home. You're tired and you need rest. From now on, you're Holden. There will not be any so-called adoptive mother coming to harass you anymore. Nobody would be coming to harass you anymore."
vireo wrapped an arm around his mother. "Alright, Mom. Let's go home."
After that, he left with his mother while his arm was still wrapped around her. He drove when came over, so of course, he would be driving his mother in his car when they were returning home.
When the mother and son walked past Sean, Sean looked at them with an ingratiating expression. Elsa did not look at Sean. Vireo, however, looked at Sean and bowed deeply at him. "Thankyou!"
He still did not address him as his dad, but Sean did not mind at all. He also did not blame Vireo. "Quickly, my son, hold your mother and take her home. Don't let her be too sad. Take care of your mother after this."
"Alright," said Vireo. After that, one by one, Vireo said goodbye to Sabrina, Sebastian, Gloria, and also Ruth. He wanted to first leave this place because he did not want to see the police putting handcuffs on his adoptive parents. He was afraid that he would go soft on them. In fact, he truly was already feeling sorry for them.
The Payne family's cries at the of their lungs could be heard coming from behind him. "Vireo, vireo, you can't just do nothing and not save US."
"Vireo, we know that we're wrong..."
"vireo, I am your eldest sister."
"vireo, I am Abigail. You have doted on me the most when we were still a child. Have you forgotten? Vireo..." Abigail was covered in tears.
However, no matter how much they cried, it did not help their case at all. One after another, the Payne family was then taken away by the police in the police car. As for how the police were going to deal with the Payne family, that was not something everyone who was present was able to control anymore. Once the police cars had left, all the onlookers also dispersed.
It was only at that moment that Sebastian came to his father and said gently, "Dad, thank you. If you hadn't appeared, we truly don't have a foolproof way to deal with the Payne family."
"This is something that I should do. I know that you are actually here to see Sabrina's mother today, so I'll take my leave now. Let your drive send me home. If your driver is not willing to give me a ride, I can take a cab as well," Sean said with an extremely humble and sincere tone.
Sean was already going to leave after saying that, but Sebastian called out to him from behind him. "Dad!"
Sean turned his head around to look at Sebastian. "Son, if there's anything else that you need my help with, just tell me. I will do as you say."
