Ch. 2151..2160

Chapter 2151 He felt just as relaxed at that moment as how nervous he was earlier on. After he lay on the couch for a while, vireo unexpectedly had a dream. In that dream, he met that face that was exactly like his again. That face was beaming from ear to ear, and he was very satisfied.

"You...your name is Holden? You are the younger brother of Sebastian, the director of the Ford Group?" asked vireo.

The man did not answer. He just smiled. Vireo repeated himself again. That man, however, floated backward and got further and further away. It was after Vireo's vision was blurred and he could no longer see clearly that he heard a distant voice.

"That's you. You're talking about yourself. You are me, and I am you..."

"Don't go. Don't you go away. Tell me what the hell is going on. Why is this happening? You..." That figure was no longer visible anymore.

"Take care of them..." In the end, that voice said that again when it was on the verge of vanishing.

"Don't you go..." Vireo abruptly woke up from his dream.

The first thing he smelled when he woke up was something burning. It was that kind of burning smell that came from the kitchen and was food-related, why would there be a burning smell?

Before vireo came to his senses, he was stunned again. Everywhere that his sight could reach looked brand-new. It was very clean and also very tidy. It was just that the room was lacking in potted plants and greenery. He had to make some time to buy some home. That way, the house would seem even homier. That was great. However, what was with the burning smell? Vireo then followed the direction where the burning smell was coming from and looked towards the kitchen. Only then did he hear the clanking in the kitchen that sounded like a performance of an orchestra.

He got up and tip-toed out of the living room, while walking, he looked around at the same time. The clothes racks and hangers, all sorts of things, and the bathroom essentials that were originally messily stacked along the hallway from the living to the bedroom were already gone. The whole hallway was so cleaned that a person's shadow could be reelected off it. vireo was initially attracted by the burning smell in the kitchen, but he actually turned around and went to the bedroom. The huge bed in the bedroom was already made. There was an ash gray quilt blanket covering the bed and a corner of the blanket was lifted. It was as if he had always been living there. How cozy. 1 He then turned around and went to the bathroom. All the toiletries, toothpaste, bathroom cups were neatly placed in the bathroom. Vireo simply leaned on the side of the bathroom door and quietly enjoyed this feeling for a while.

He was thinking that the only thing lacking was to hang a picture at the end of the hallway. It would then be perfect. But, what to hang? The first thing that came to his mind was actually his and Isadora's wedding photo. If Isadora was all dolled up, she certainly would be very beautiful, vireo thought that when he was off duty, he would then accompany Isadora to buy all sorts of beautiful clothes to wear at home and outside. All kinds of it. He had to especially design a walk-in closet for Isadora in the future.

Since he had decided to support her for the rest of her life, he had to let her be pretty for the rest of her life. 1 While thinking of that, Vireo suddenly wondered where Isadora was. She was not in the living room, bedroom, and also bathroom. Oh, right. The kitchen! she was in the kitchen. Vireo then recalled the burning smell that came from the kitchen, shit!

vireo turned around and ran straight to the kitchen, when he got to the entrance of the kitchen and saw everything in there, he was stunned.

After Isadora, who was fumbling around in the kitchen, heard a voice behind her, she turned her head. "Well, Holden, I..."

"Pfft...haha!" Vireo, who had always been very calm and composed, suddenly burst out laughing so hard that had to bend over.

Chapter 2152 When Isadora saw vireo laughing, she felt even more embarrassed. "Holden, I'm sorry. I feel that I am a woman, so I should know how to cook. I wanted to cook something good for you and I'm afraid that you'll be hungry, but..."

However, she had already finished using all the ingredients in Holden's fridge. In the end, she did not even manage to make a single decent dish, she was thinking that he had seen Jane making gnocchi when she had nothing to do at home. She had put tomatoes and some vegetables in it and the gnocchi was extremely delicious. Gnocchi were easy to make. It was just mashing and mixing some flour, potatoes, and egg, and it was all done after just boiling them. In the end, Isadora failed at making gnocchi even after she had finished a small bag of flour that vireo had bought.

Instead, her face, hair, and apron were all covered in flour.

Since she failed at making gnocchi, she thought of making custard pudding. Isadora had often seen Jane making custard puddings for the children. It was very delicious and was very smooth, when making custard puddings for the children, even though she made it for the children, Jane always made some for Isadora as well. It was just a few eggs, but Isadora enjoyed it very much every time she had it. Custard pudding was so easy to make. It was just whisking some eggs and milk and boiling it over medium heat. In the end, the custard pudding that Isadora made was blackened and was covered in bubbles. How could it have the slightest sense of smoothness at all?

Isadora was so dejected. Seeing that it had already been more than an hour, she was thinking that vireo should be waking up soon. What should she do? What should she do? Isadora was so anxious that she was on the verge of crying. However, she had to do what she said she would do. she had said that she was going to cook for Holden.

Screw it! she was going to go all out! she put the pan on the stove, and then she imitated the way Jane fried eggs, she poured some oil in and then directly cracked the eggs into the pan.

'This must work! Haha!

Isadora then put the lid on the pan and waited while standing in front of the pan. she wondered how long it would take for the eggs to cook. She waited and waited. In fact, it had not been that long. It was just a few minutes, when she took 1 the lid off, she saw the eggs were all burnt, oh! Isadora truly felt so embarrassed that she did not know if she should cry or laugh. Just as she was clueless about what she should do, Holden had unexpectedly woken up and came to the kitchen. She had turned the entire kitchen into a huge mess as if it was the ruins after a war.

"I'm...sorry, Holden." Isadora hung her head and was very embarrassed.

After Holden was done laughing, he came to the front of Isadora, and he carefully looked at the girl with a face full of flour, soot, and eggs. He suddenly thought about how she could be so cute, she was so cute that his heart had completely melted, she was so great that he could not bear to let her go. He put the girl in his arms in one fell swoop and put his chin with ashy stubbles on the top of her head. Then, he mumbled softly, "Isadora, you truly are the priceless treasure that God has given me. My girl. From now on, you're my girl, my life, and my everything."

Isadora was so touched that she cried, she nestled in his arms. " But, Holden, I am so stupid. I thought that I could cook. I am already in my thirties. How could I not even know how to cook? I can't even make such simple dishes."

"You don't know how to cook, but I do," said the man gently.

Isadora looked up at vireo with her teary eyes. "You...don't need me to cook for you?"

"Silly girl, have you forgotten we had just come home from the restaurant? In fact, I'm not hungry at all," said Vireo.

"I saw that you did not eat anything at all at the restaurant, and you had already slept for almost two hours after coming home. I was afraid that you'll be hungry, but I don't know how to make anything. I truly have embarrassed myself big time." Isadora had a nasal voice and was particularly embarrassed.

Chapter 2153 The way she looked was extremely cute in Vireo's eyes. It was so heartwarming and it made him want to squeeze her tightly in his arms very badly.

"Are you hungry?" the man asked gently.

"Mm-hmm." Isadora was truly hungry, when she was at the restaurant, she was so focused on listening to vireo talking about his past that she did not eat much at all. On top of that, she had spent more than an hour tidying up all the things in the rooms after she had entered the house, so she really was a little hungry.

"Come on, I'll take you to wash your face. After that, you can just sit and watch television in the living room and wait for me. I'll be done with the cooking in half an hour." The man led Isadora toward the bathroom. He could not bear to clean up her dirty little face, but he knew that Isadora would be shy.

As expected, when Isadora saw herself in the mirror, she first lowered her head shyly, then she bent over laughing, and moved around in his arms. Her movements instantly ignited the burning desire within Vireo, but he could not act too rashly. He was afraid that he would frighten Isadora.

After he personally washed and cleaned Isadora's face, he took her to the living room again before going to the kitchen. The kitchen was in a huge mess, but he was able to clean it up very quickly. The ingredients in the fridge were almost all ruined by Isadora, but there was still more or less a little bit left. As long as there were still some ingredients, then he would not be worried that they had nothing to eat. 1 Cooking was something easy and familiar to Vireo. He could make all sorts of home cooking, while he was busy in the kitchen, Isadora could not sit still in the living room. She then tip-toed to the kitchen, when she stood at the kitchen door and looked at the man with an apron skillfully managing everything in the kitchen, Isadora felt that that was a kind of enjoyment. The man's back was lean but also appeared to be broad and powerful.

She hugged Vireo from behind, and she pressed her face against his back. "Holden...," she whispered.

The man said gently, "Hmm? Are you hungry? I'll be done soon. Just wait a minute."

"Holden, I...I love you," said Isadora.

Vireo was speechless.

"Holden, let me marry you and be your wife, г 11 carry your child and we'll have a bunch of them, alright, Holden? I love you..."

Isadora's voice was even gentler than before.

The man gently turned around and looked at her. He did not answer her, but he pinched her little nose. "Aren't you hungry? Have some food first."

Isadora nodded. "Mm-hmm."

She was very obedient to him. She would do anything that he had asked her to do. Even if she was asked to go to hell, she would also be willing to do so.

The dishes that the man prepared were healthy and delicious, and he had used all the ingredients that she had scrapped. He picked up and cleaned all the undamaged leaves of the vegetables that she had thrown all over the place, and then made a simple vegetable dish. He then fried the three remaining eggs with ham and it smelled amazing. There was a little flour left over at the bottom of the bowl as well. The bowl that she originally intended to wash had not been cleaned, so the man used that bit of flour to make a soup. He cracked some eggs into the soup and put some corn in there. A deliciously sweet soup was then ready.

With some pasta, two dishes, and a soup, that was the most delicious home cooking Isador had ever had in her life.

That was the first time both of them had a meal together and they actually finished both the dishes, the soup, and also the pot of pasta. Nothing was leftover at all. Isadora was stuffed, she sluggishly laid on the couch while the man went to clean up the kitchen.

After everything was cleaned up, the man came to the couch. He bent over and with a single scoop, he carried Isadora in his arms. Isadora was so frightened that her voice was choked up in her throat. She also subconsciously wrapped her hands around the man's neck before she asked, "You... What do you want? why did you suddenly...carry me?" 1 The man laughed with a deep and husky voice. "Silly girl, didn't you want to marry me? Didn't you want to have a bunch of babies with me?"

Isadora was speechless. Her face suddenly turned blood red.

Before she regained her senses, the man had already carried her directly into the bedroom. Isadora's heart was pounding like crazy. She felt that the man certainly was able to hear it.

The man did hear it, but he pretended not to know. After they got into the bedroom, he gently put her down. Immediately after that, he got on top of her.

"Do you know how to kiss?" the man asked gently.

Chapter 2154 Isadora did not know how to do that. She knew nothing. She had been wandering everywhere with her brother, and she was dressed like a man for most of the time, she did not even have the chance to fall in love, much less kiss. Her life truly was very empty after living for more than thirty years, she looked at vireo with a clear and confused, and also expectant and pitiful gaze.

She did not know how to answer him.

Vireo smiled, "what a silly girl."

She knew nothing, so he suddenly felt guilty. She was so pure. He, on the other hand, had been married before, so he actually was very experienced in that aspect. He felt that she truly would be at a disadvantage if they were to get together. However, when he saw that she loved him so much through her eyes, vireo felt that he certainly had to be even better to her in this life to compensate her.

That night was filled with passion and it was perfect. Also, there was no doubt that it was vireo who was taking the lead. He could not be too aggressive because he was afraid of hurting her. He had been holding himself back so he was not too pleasant for him. However, when he saw her tossing and turning and blooming bashfully like a little lily, he was then very satisfied.

Later on, she was exhausted so she nestled in his arms and slept very soundly. He, on the other hand, could not bear to sleep.

He kept looking at her. The woman, who had fully blossomed, was truly beautiful. The woman was still smiling sweetly in her sleep. " Holden, I've finally become your woman. It's really great being your woman. It's especially good. I am also finally a woman.

Holden, you have to protect me in the future. I am already your wife, right?"

Vireo hugged her even tighter. "Yes, you are my wife. You have to have a bunch of kids with me in the future."

"Mm-hmm." She snuggled happily in the bent of his arms and continued to sleep.

They did not sleep for a very long time, but it was very beautiful. Both of them slept very soundly, when they got up early in the morning, they were both hugging each other. The woman's clothes could not be worn anymore. It was fortunate that there were already a dozen dress shirts that Vireo had already prepared in his closet. He then took one for her to put on. After that, he carried her to the bathroom to take a shower. After they came out of the bathroom, he put her on the bed again.

"What are you doing? I am not that lazy. The day has dawned, so I can't stay in bed," Isadora asked shyly.

"You're not allowed to go anywhere today. You can only stay in bed. I will bring the breakfast to you in a while after I've prepared it. I'll put the medicine on for you after breakfast. It was your first time, so you have to listen to me. Only then will your body not be easily hurt like that."

He was a doctor. He was a surgeon, but he knew a woman's anatomy and every other aspect very well. Besides, he was more experienced than her in this aspect. After she heard the man saying that, the woman instantly became shy. she lowered her head and did not dare to look at him at all.

The man got up and left. Not long after that, milk and a freshly made sandwich were brought in. After watching her finish her breakfast and wash up, the man helped her clean up everything before he headed out with peace of mind. Who would have expected that as soon as he left his house, he saw two people, one big and one small, standing outside his door.

"Why are you two here? How did you find my place? Why didn't you give me a call so I can let you in?" Vireo asked continuously.

The people who were sitting in front of vireo's house were Minerva and Aino. Both of them had been sitting there for half an hour.

"Uncle Holden, we were thinking that you and Aunt Isadora are spending time together and did not wish to be disturbed, so we simply sat outside the door all this time," Aino said with a grin.

Vireo appeared to be slightly embarrassed. "It's my fault."

Aino was still smiling. "Uncle Holden, my dad said that if you're free today, we'll take you to have a look at my grandma's grave."

Vireo immediately gladly agreed. "Sure."

He very much wanted to go and see what this miserable woman looked like. That was Holden's mother.

Chapter 2155 She was a great mother. He especially wanted to meet her. He took both Aino and Minerva downstairs, and once the two children got into his car, one after another, they started to ask him questions.

"Uncle Holden, did you have a good time last night?"

"Uncle Holden, where is Isadora?"

"Uncle Holden, how did you and Aunt Isadora spend last night together?"

"Uncle Holden, when are you and Isadora planning to get married? Do you think I'm too old to be your flower girl? Are there any girls in their twenties who are still flower girls?"

"Uncle Holden, Uncle Holden, I'm only twelve years old. I can be the flower girl. Just forget about Miss Minerva."

"I want to be one! This is my uncle!"

"He is also my uncle!"

"He is my uncle! You brat, if you keep fighting me over him, I'll beat you up!" Minerva had never been gracious to Aino.

Aino had always been Minerva's little follower, she grinned and said, "Alright, alright. I'll let you have it since you're the beauty who is second to none in my eyes. Uncle Holden, look, isn't Miss Minerva the most beautiful lady in all of South city?"

Vireo was speechless. He then coughed awkwardly.

He really did not mind how old the flower girls were. However, that appearance...

After Vireo coughed a few times, he said deceptively, "Of course, Minerva is the most beautiful lady."

Minerva was so happy that she was smiling from ear to ear. All that was left on the little face with a flat nose were freckles. Only then did Vireo notice that Minerva's smile was truly very good-looking. It was a confident and honest beauty that she was unaware of herself.

The man was in a very good mood, so he drove a little faster. Under the guidance of Aino, vireo drove all the way to Grace's grave.

Sebastian had initially wanted to personally pick Vireo up in the morning, but there were some urgent matters in the company that he needed to deal with, so he first went to the company. Sabrina, on the other hand, had to take care of the other two younger children, so she was also fully occupied in the morning. Therefore, the mission of leading Uncle Holden to her grandmother's grave was entrusted to Aino, while Aino was on the way, she sent a text to Minerva asking her if she wanted to go to their uncle's new house. Minerva, of course, was beyond happy.

One and a half hours later, the three of them arrived outside the entrance to the cemetery. After he parked the car, vireo saw both Sabrina and Sebastian, who were dressed in full black, were waiting outside the entrance to the cemetery.

"Vireo, is this taking up time from your work?" asked Sebastian.

Vireo smiled. "Sebastian, you can also call me Holden. I mean it. When I hear the name, Holden, I just feel very affectionate. I had never been happy when my name was vireo in the past few decades, so I might as well not have this name."

At that moment, when Vireo saw Sebastian, he suddenly decided that he did not want to be called Vireo Payne anymore from then on. That was because Vireo had no family. The people around Vireo were all fraudsters and raiders. Vireo was not happy.

However, Holden was different. Holden had a family. He had a brother, a sister-in-law, and two nieces. Even for the woman lying in bed at his house, the man that she wanted was named Holden as well. Therefore, he had decided that his name was Holden.

Sebastian immediately corrected himself. "Come on, Holden. Come in with us." 1 "Mm-hmm. Alright, Sebastian." Holden then followed Sebastian and Sabrina toward Grace and Holden's grave.

The few of them then saw a man was sitting at the grave from afar. That man's hair was all white, and there were even a few alcohol bottles in front of him. That man also saw them when they got closer. That man's eyes first lit up, and then he looked at Holden in shock.

"Holden, Hold-Holden. You...you're alive?" Seann absolutely could not believe his own eyes.

Chapter 2156 Right at the moment when he saw Sean, vireo, no, his name should have already been Holden then. Right at the moment when he saw Sean, Holden was also stunned. He had an intense and indescribable feeling toward Sean. It was even more intense than the feeling he had for Sebastian. It was as if Sean was truly his father. However, that feeling was immediately suppressed by Holden. He bowed his head a little and smiled at Sean. "You should be Mister Ford, right?" 1 "Holden, my son..." Sean said.

Holden was speechless.

"I have already wronged your mother enough. Your mother wanted to see you once the most before she died, but she did not get to do that. Ever since you died, I felt even more so that I've wronged your mother. I have never expected it, my son, I have never expected that you're still alive. You...you're actually still alive. " Sean looked at Holden with tears streaming down his cheeks.

Holden shook his head. "Mister Ford, I am not your son. 1 simply looked like your son. However, I have already taken Mister Sebastian as my brother. I am here at the cemetery today to take a look at your son, who looked exactly like me."

"You...Holden, how can this be possible? How can someone look so similar to another person in this world? It's impossible! You didn't die! My son, you didn't die! Son, you simply are not willing to acknowledge me as your father, right?" Sean asked.

"I... Mister Ford, I really am not your son..." Holden said.

"No, you must be!" Sean held Holden's hand and did not want to let go.

At that moment, Sebastian and Sabrina had also arrived in front of Sean. Sean had aged even faster in the past few years. His back was already hunched. His hair was pitiful white as well, when he saw his father being so old, Sebastian's resentment toward his father also reduced quite a bit. His voice also became gentle. "Dad, this Holden really isn't the late Holden. He is not your son. He is a surgeon at the South city Hospital. He had also gone to college in South City back then, and his records are still there in his college. At that time, Holden was still alive. Dad, he really is not your son." 1 Sean was stunned. "Real-really?"

Sebastian nodded. "Absolutely true."

Sean suddenly felt quite disappointed. His back, which was originally already slightly hunched, got even more hunched. He disheartenedly held the alcohol bottle, retreated to the side, and simply looked at Holden with an insatiable gaze. 1 Holden bowed his head at Sean, and then he went to the front of Grace's tomb together with Sebastian. He respectfully bowed and observed a moment of silence. Looking at the middle-aged woman with a smile in front of him, a continuous feeling of pity also emerged in Vireo's heart. However, it was not as strong as the feeling he had for Sean. Holden had no clue what was the reason. Perhaps the dead had already died, after all, while the living was still alive and well in front of him, so maybe Holden felt that Sean was a little more pitiful.

He had also finally met that man named Holden, who looked exactly the same as himself. There was a smile on the man's face, but there was more of a sense of sadness in his smile. In his gloomy expression, there was a kind of unconcealable stubbornness, disobedience, an insufferable arrogance, and also a sense of viciousness. In fact, those were all the temperaments that the current Holden could never possibly have. That was because only a young master from an extremely wealthy family could have such temperament. That was enough to show that even if that Holden from the past never got any love from his parents, he still was a spoiled young master who never had to worry about his basic needs in life.

That innate insufferable arrogance and nobility was something the current Holden did not have, what he had was more of the temperament of an elite among commoners. Therefore, the current Holden was certain that the other Holden from back then truly existed, and he was a totally different person from himself. They only looked similar and shared similar experiences.

Chapter 2157 What they yearned for was the same. That was all. However, at the moment, he simply wanted to live his life well under the name of Holden Payne. He wanted to get along with Holden's family. From then on, they would be his family, while thinking of that, Holden could not help but turn his head back to glance at that old man who was eagerly looking at him.

The old man smiled at Holden. "My son..."

"Mister Ford, I have become Mister Sebastian's younger brother. You're Mister Sebastian's father, so if you don't mind, I'll also come to visit you often. Is that alright?" Holden said gently.

Since he had no loved ones anyway, it was a great thing to him for every additional loved one he got.

Sean shook his head and his tears instantly streamed down his face. "No, no, my son. You must be my son. You simply are my biological son."

Holden was speechless. He did not know what he should say. He did not mind being the old man's son, but deep in the old man's heart, the person he wanted was his biological son and not him, the son who had no blood relations to him. Holden's thoughts were very clear. "I'm sorry, sir. I really am not your son. However, don't worry. I can be just like your son. I can take care of you, accompany you, and have a casual chat with you. what do you think? Is that alright?" 1 "Not alright!"

Holden was speechless.

"I only want my son! I want my son! I want my Holden! I had never given him any love as a father in this life. I want to love him properly. I only want my son. Because the person that I've wronged is my biological son."

The old man kept rambling on as if he had been possessed, but also as if he had been senile. That made the person, who had just changed his name to Holden Payne, get caught in a pickle. He helplessly looked at Sean, and then he looked at Sabrina and Sebastian.

Before Sabrina and Sebastian said anything, Sean had already grabbed onto Holden's wrist. "Son, I know that you're blaming me and I know you hate me. That's why you're using this method to punish me, right? It's my fault! I'll apologize to you, and I'll use the remaining years to atone for my sins, alright? No matter what, you have to admit that you're my son. Look at you, your last name is Payne, and your name is also Holden.You look exactly like my Holden. How could you not be Holden? Tell me, what other reasons can you give to escape from this?"

"But... I really am not your son. I can't lie to you. Because you and I are not related by blood, if I were to admit it, I would be lying to you. I can care for you like a son should do. However, I can't admit that I am your son. The Ford group is a big family with a huge empire. I can't lie to you."

Holden was not a greedy person, and he also had his principles. If they were not related by blood, then they were not related by blood. He was not going to admit to being his son.

"Related by blood?" The old man burst out crying miserably. " When it comes to the matter of blood relations, whatever you say isn't valid. Whatever I say isn't valid as well. Only the result of a medical test is valid. Am I right, son?"

Once a medical test was mentioned, Holden's eye suddenly lit up. He immediately said, "Alright, we'll get a medical test done tomorrow. This way, you will know for sure that I am not your son. It A ray of hope was also radiating out of the man's eyes. "Son, is it that as long as the medical test determines that we're father and sons, biological father and sons, then you'll admit that you're my son?"

Holden smiled, "of course, sir."

However, he knew that it was completely impossible. How could that be possible? Yet, fate truly would joke with people sometimes.

The following day, both Holden and Sean found a third-party organization while being accompanied by Sebastian, Sabrina, Isadora, Minerva, and a few others. The DNA paternity test was then done in a very transparent manner. However, when the result of the test came back, everyone was stunned. Only Sean smiled. " Look, son, it turns out that you really are my Holden."

Holden, however, had a gloomy expression on his face. "You... you're actually my biological father?"

Chapter 2158 Sean seemed like he had gotten ten years younger. His son was not dead. He actually did not die. Everyone had lied to him.

They could not lie to him anymore. His son actually was not dead. The punishment given to him by God was not too bad. That was great. He had lost everything, but he still had two sons. Two of them. Life was still not too miserable for him.

Sean was covered in tears as he looked at Holden. He raised his hand and grabbed Holden's strong arms. However, what none of the people present had ever expected was that Holden, who had always been gentle and elegant, suddenly swung his arm and he unexpectedly made the old man fall straight to the floor. Sean was in so much pain that he did not get up for a very long time.

"Holden!" Sebastian immediately scolded Holden.

However, it was as if Holden did not hear him. He simply glared at Sean with his bloodshot eyes, and then step by step, he walked toward Sean who had fallen on the ground. That gaze was as if he wanted to murder someone. Isadora, who was behind him, was scared silly. She grabbed Holden's shirt. "Holden. Holden, don't do anything rash. I'm scared. I had just been reunited with you. Don't do anything rash. I can't lose you, Holden."

It was after Holden, who had almost already lost his mind, heard Isadora's shouting that he suddenly regained his senses. He turned around and put Isadora in his arms tightly. He just hugged her tightly. "You're right, Isadora. You need me. For your sake, I can't act on my impulse. For your sake, for your sake..."

Everyone could tell that Holden was doing his best to control his rage. After he repeated "For your sake" a few times, he continued walking toward Sean. Sean was scared silly. He was dumbfounded for a very long time. "Son, I know that you hate me..."

Holden lifted Sean in one go and asked fiercely, "I'll ask you! why did you give birth to me and then throw me away? You let me suffer so many years of misery! I'm asking you, why? why? why?"

He originally wanted to kill that old thing with a single stomp. However, because of Isadora, he was not so impulsive anymore, and yet, that hatred at the bottom of his heart was still there. He shook Sean so much that Sean simply wanted to throw up. In the end, it was Sebastian who forcefully pulled Holden away.

Holden looked at Sebastian like a furious lion. Sebastian did not say anything. Right at that very moment, even Sebastian felt like he was in the wrong for some reason. He knew what kind of person his father was. Sebastian was also one of the victims of the sins that his father had committed many years ago when he was a young man. His father was able to cruelly abandon his mother and two children on that isolated island, so his father should have also done things like abandoning other women. Up until that point, even Sebastian had never known how many women his father had abandoned back then. He really did not dare to think about this ill- fated relationship at all.

At that moment, Sebastian also finally understood why Doctor Payne and his younger twin brother would look so much alike.

Genes were a very fascinating thing sometimes. In fact, Holden did not look that much like Sean. He also did not look that much like his mother. He only looked a little bit like Sebastian. They were not identical twins, but fraternal twins. Therefore, Sebastian and Sean looked more similar while Holden looked less like Sean. However, that did not mean that Holden had inherited less of Sean's genes. That was not the case.

Rather, Holden's appearance should be similar to Sean's forefathers such as his father, grandfather, great-grandfather, or even his mother, grandmother, or great-grandmother. He simply looked similar to one of them. It was the same for Doctor Payne. That simply was what genes were. The case with Holden and vireo's genes was simply the phenomenon of atavism in the Ford family.

The most coincidental thing was that Holden and Vireo were very much alike. They were exactly the same. That was the greatness of the power of genes, without a doubt, the person in front of them, who had just changed his name from vireo to Holden, certainly was Sean's son.

Chapter 2159 He certainly must be his son!

Sebastian felt an indescribable sadness. How many more sins had his father committed? How many sins had his father actually committed? However, what more could he say? when he was facing Holden, who was incomparably furious, Sebastian sympathized with him. However, no matter how much he sympathized with him, Sebastian also could not just let Holden beat his own father to death. He looked at vireo while feeling unjustified, but the name he called out was Holden.

"Holden, Holden, calm down. Calm down for a moment, alright? Listen to me. Even if you were to beat him to death right now, it wouldn't help with anything. On the other hand, your future, your lover, and your everything would all be in vain, Holden!"

Sebastian said.

Holden looked at Sebastian with his bloodshot eyes. "Sebastian! I know that you value relationships and loyalty! The rumors said that you kill without batting an eyelid and that you are coldblooded and vicious, but that's not true at all! You are a good person!

However, what the hell had this person, our father, done? Do you know what I've been through growing up? Do you know how I manage to pull through? The only thing I knew was that since he did not want me, then why did he have me? After he had me, he sold it off! Such a father should be imprisoned! He has to be imprisoned! He has to rot in prison!"

Sean still did not understand what was going on, so he looked at his son with tears streaming down his face. "Holden, if you'll feel better with me being imprisoned, then I'll go to prison, alright?" Holden sneered. "Ho! Haha!"

At that moment, Sebastian helplessly helped his father up. Sean looked at his son again while looking old and pitiful. "Sebastian, go...and persuade Holden. Don't let him be so angry. I...I really am willing to atone for my sins."

"Dad! Calm down for a moment. I have something serious to tell you!" Sebastian said coldly and flatly.

His voice was not loud and also not fierce. However, Sean was afraid of this child of his. whenever Sebastian said anything to him, he simply could not feign madness and stupidity. He immediately stood up straight, wiped his tears away. "What do you want to say, Sebastian?"

"This Holden in front of you is named vireo. He is a doctor. This is an absolute fact. That Holden whom you speak of had already died for a few years. However, now, Vireo is also your son. So, dad, tell me, who is Vireo's mother? He had been a child who was sold off when he was a baby. He has the right to know who his biological parents are! As Vireo's biological father, you have the obligation to tell him! You have an obligation. Do you understand?"

Just like before, Sebastian's voice was still not loud. However, that kind of intimidating power and his suppressed anger made Sean's heart skip a beat. He instantly stopped talking. He hung his head very low as well. His expression made Sebastian understand everything instantly. His father still had something hidden from everyone all along.

"Dad!" Sebastian shouted coldly again.

Sean suddenly shuddered. "Her...her name...is Elsa Stewart, she was ...she was... When I had just taken over the Ford Group, she was my secretary..."

Both Sebastian and Vireo were speechless.

Sean's face went red and he continued, "she told me back then that she was pregnant. I...1 didn't quite believe her. It so happened that I was very busy during that period, the company was in a crisis at that time, and I was also busy with the matters on star Island as well, so I didn't manage to care much about her. she was a very introverted person, she simply told me that she was pregnant, and seeing that I ignored her, she...resigned and left on her own."

II Vireo grabbed Sean's collar and then asked him word by word, Then, where is she now? Tell me!"

Chapter 2160 Sean shook his head. "I don't...know." "You shameless ass!" vireo raised his palm and slapped Sean across his face.

Sean was stunned by the slap. Sebastian and Sabrina, who were behind him, were also stunned. Nobody had expected that vireo could slap someone at that moment, and the person he slapped was his biological father whom he had been searching for his whole life.

"Holdem, he...he is your father," Isadora quietly called out behind him.

"Stay out of this, Isadora! stand back a little, otherwise, you might be affected when I beat him up later." It looked like vireo still wanted to beat somebody up.

After saying that, he already made a move. This time, both of vireo's hands were still grabbing onto Sean's collar while Sean was still in a daze, vireo then shook Sean violently. "Monster! You're worse than a monster! How can you be such a jerk? How can you be so irresponsible? How can you still be alive right now? Why didn't you go to hell? She was a pregnant woman! she was a woman who was pregnant with your child! You actually were indifferent to her and you let her leave on her own? Do you have a conscience? May I know if you have a conscience?" 1 Sean became very dizzy from being shaken by vireo. However, he heard everything that Vireo said very clearly. All those words were heartbreaking. Vireo was right. Where was his conscience? As Sean got older and older, he often found it hard to sleep at night. He did not feel it when he was young, especially when he was in his thirties. He was full of vigor and he was in charge of a large group of companies. He was almost as powerful back then as Sebastian at that moment. The only thing different was that the Ford Group back then was not as large as when it was in the hands of Sebastian.

Back then when Sean was in his thirties, he was good-looking, tall, and powerful. The women in the entire South city who wanted to marry him truly could circle the entire city if they were to stand shoulder to shoulder with each other. The way Sean looked at women was even colder and more unkind than him looking at a piece of clothing.

Sometimes, some companies that wanted to collaborate with the Ford Group would send an incomparably delicate little girl in her early twenties, who had yet to experience anything in life, to his bed. He may not even take another glance at her, and he did not even take any necessary measures when doing the deed. Because he was lazy and felt that it did not feel good. After he was done with his business, he still would not take another look at the girl. "Take the necessary steps yourself. Don't let yourself get pregnant. If you got pregnant, then the trouble would only be on you."

Upon saying that, without waiting for the girl to reply, he had already picked up his pants and left. It was such a casual matter to him. At that time, Sean had never had to worry about matters in that aspect.

He had never taken another glance at any beautiful women. Even if he had been standing in front of the most popular celebrity at that moment, he also would not be bothered. Also, he never slept with any celebrities. He would only sleep with the pure ones.

He absolutely did not want any defiled women.

That was back then when he was young. Later on, as he got older over time, he was not capable of sleeping around anymore.

Also, his children were all grown-up, and they even started their own families. On top of that, Rose's control over him was getting more and more strict in this aspect. Therefore, after Sean entered his forties, he never fooled around out there anymore. As for how many women he had slept with in his thirties, could he remember it himself? He truly was not able to remember it anymore.

The reason why he remembered that secretary was that she had always been diligent and obedient in front of him. Unlike other women, she had never deliberately sought his attention and seduced him. That secretary had never done anything like that, she had always put a huge distance between herself and the director. After she had finished her work, she absolutely would not spend another minute standing in front of the director and would immediately leave. However, she had always been great with her work. She was the best among the group of secretaries.
