Chapter 200: Chapter 176: I Only Have One Way to Die (2nd update)

It had been a long time since Evan Taylor, who hadn’t left the mountain, single-handedly took on everything.

Although Chuck Taylor was blocked in the rear position, he also carried a lot of responsibilities, which was a little comforting.

When this matter spread to other families, everyone sighed, saying that the situation was unpredictable.

The Taylor family, which stood at the top of Sheffield City, declined overnight into a medium-sized family.

However, even in this state, their medical skills remained unrivaled by others.

Although they had fallen to the status of a medium-sized family, they were still a bit stronger than other medium-sized ones.

Pierce Stephens sat in the large office of Building 1. After listening to the report, he asked about the situation with the Taylor family, "Has anyone from the Taylor family approached us?"

Elliot Xenos said, "The Taylor family is very busy right now. I’m afraid it’ll be a while before they come to ask for help."

Both the Stephens family and the Fisher family had received the Taylor family’s favors.

With such a big incident happening to the Taylors, they would eventually seek assistance.

However, the rankings of the three major families had not changed.

Actually, everything had changed.

"Many families, including ours, owe the Taylor family favors. We don’t have to refuse if they ask for help."

Elliot Xenos took note of this.

"What have the people in Building 3 been doing lately?" Pierce Stephens casually asked.

As if he had expected Pierce Stephens to ask this question, Elliot Xenos was well-prepared, "Adam Stephens is still running between the company and home, occasionally taking Rowan Stephens to learn in the back hall. He hasn’t slacked off on his training. His relationship with Yvette Foster has also improved significantly, and they are often seen going out alone to eat. After the incident last time, other people in the family rarely invite Yvette out alone."

That incident referred to Freya Leonard’s injury.

Everyone suspected that Adam Stephens was behind it.

Furthermore, the ladies of the Stephens family didn’t want to get involved with Yvette Foster, only remembering her when there were conflicts of interest.

Pierce Stephens just listened and did not say anything.

Elliot Xenos observed Pierce Stephens’ reaction and continued, "As for Miss Chloe Stephens... nothing special seems to be happening; she’s just going to school. Regarding the middle school exam results last time, it’s been verified that there was no fraud. Miss Chloe Stephens really ranked first in the nation."

That one point not scoring a perfect score was actually Chloe’s deliberate decision.

Pierce Stephens was slightly surprised.

"She seems to have improved a bit."

"It should be because the environment in the mountain county suits her," Elliot Xenos thought for a moment, then asked, "Family leader, should we have Miss Chloe Stephens undergo a thorough examination at the hospital?"

Pierce Stephens glanced at Elliot Xenos, "Being able to score high doesn’t mean she can walk into the core of the Stephens family."

Elliot Xenos lowered his head, "I overstepped my bounds."

After a moment of silence, Pierce Stephens speaks again, "Any descendant of the Stephens family has the opportunity."

A thought crossed Elliot Xenos’s mind.

*

One morning, Adam Stephens let Rowan go to the company first and stayed behind to take his daughter to school.

Yvette Foster stayed at home, talking on the phone with Nicholas Lincoln in the mountain county about the development of their company.

Elliot Xenos approached Adam Stephens before he got in the car to leave.

Adam told Chloe to get in the car first and handed her a bottle of milk.

As Elliot Xenos walked over, he saw the girl holding the milk while slowly sipping it in the car, looking harmless and obedient.

Elliot Xenos was Pierce Stephens’ assistant, and no one who saw him dared to show contempt.

Elliot Xenos wouldn’t easily come out and find someone alone unless there was something important.

Adam Stephens sensed that something was wrong and asked, "Has something happened in the main family?"

Elliot Xenos glanced at the girl in the car and replied, "the family leader has something he wants me to pass on to you."

Adam frowned, "Is it related to Chloe?"

"You could say that," Elliot Xenos added, "It’s my personal conveyance."

Adam wanted to sneer but held back.

What personal conveyance? It was obviously the old man deliberately throwing out words for someone else to deliver.

No matter what, Adam Stephens would bear it.

But if someone touched his daughter, he would make the other party pay, even if it cost him his life.

"The family leader said that anyone from the Stephens family’s descendants has the opportunity to compete for the family’s things."

Whether you want to compete or not, it’s up to you.

After leaving these words, Elliot Xenos left.

*

On the way to school, the obedient girl finished the last sip of milk and began speaking softly, "The Stephens family is giving you pressure."

Adam was preoccupied with his thoughts and didn’t immediately react when he heard his daughter’s words.

"If you need any help, just say the word."

Adam: "..."

Chloe glanced over and saw that Adam Stephens didn’t react, so it probably wasn’t something she needed to get involved in.

"Chloe," Adam felt that his daughter indeed had the right to make choices, "Your grandfather means that you can also compete for Rowan Stephens’s current position."

Chloe looked at Adam without emotion and asked, "What does Father think?"

"My thoughts?" Adam smiled and said, "Father, of course, hopes that Chloe will live happily her whole life. Family struggles for power are very cruel. Father doesn’t want you to experience those things. When you grow up, Father will find a good husband for you, and you can live an ordinary life."

This is his wish.

Every parent has the hope their children will be successful.

But he wanted even more for his daughter to grow up safely.

And not like those disciples, living every day in fear.

"I won’t marry."

Upon hearing that, Adam laughed, "Even if you don’t get married, Father hopes you can be happy."

His daughter was still young and didn’t understand the feelings between men and women yet, so she could say such things, but when she understood these things later, she wouldn’t think like that.

"If Rowan Stephens succeeds, I’ll have a dead end."

Adam suddenly looked at his daughter and stared for a long time.

He heard the girl continue, "If Rowan Stephens is out, there will be a second one."

Whoever it was, as long as the person who succeeded had no connection with Chloe, the final result would be the same.

Because Adam was standing in the rightful leader’s position.

It was destined from the beginning.

Even if you have no desire for power, it doesn’t mean that others won’t covet and resent you.

Some hatreds can always be inexplicable.

*

Adam stared at his daughter’s receding figure for a long time.

As Chloe entered the school campus, Adam was still thinking about his daughter’s words just now.

Unbeknownst to him, he realized that his daughter wasn’t actually disabled in the brain, as the Taylor family’s diagnosis had suggested.

Then, he found that he seemed to know less and less about his daughter.

*

Chloe said those words not without reason, but to give Adam a wake-up call.

Entering the classroom, Abigail Wilson ran up to gossip, "Cecilia Taylor is back to school, like nothing happened."

Chloe didn’t care about such matters.

"And, Mason Sullivan and the others were discharged from the hospital, where did you go on the weekend?"

"Just hang around."

"Chloe, bring me with you next time!" Abigail Wilson was about to say something else, but her peripheral vision caught sight of a figure by the window, and she poked Chloe with her finger, "It’s Oliver Gordon, the campus idol!"

Many people in Class 11 looked outside.

Oliver Gordon sent a message asking Chloe to come out for a moment.

Chloe ignored him.

Abigail Wilson secretly gave Chloe a thumbs-up!

Oliver Gordon frowned and didn’t stay much longer before leaving.

But at noon after school, he deliberately stopped Chloe and handed her a box from his hand, "Chloe, this is the cloth doll you used to like..."

Chloe bypassed him directly.

Many people around thought Chloe was going too far.

"The campus idol gave it to you, and if you don’t want it, just refuse. Being so arrogant is a bit too much."

"Yeah, others want such an opportunity, and they don’t have it."

"What’s so great about her? She’s not that good-looking."

Abigail Wilson was furious, "Hey, not wanting a gift is a crime? What is wrong with you? Chloe is prettier than all you toads. What, not convinced?"

Chloe had left but came back.

Her gaze swept coldly.

The people who had spoken loudly just now suddenly felt inexplicably guilty.

"Mind your own business, and care for your own parents."

Chloe’s indifferent words came out, and those people’s faces instantly turned pale.

Abigail Wilson chuckled, "Yeah, you guys aren’t Oliver Gordon’s parents. Why do you care!"

Oliver Gordon was somewhat shocked. The previous Chloe was quiet and timid.

The Chloe that followed was cold and didn’t like to talk. This time her words came out, which really didn’t match her character.

Chloe looked at Oliver Gordon: "Too full of yourself."

Oliver Gordon’s handsome face turned pale in an instant.
