Chapter 292: Chapter 265: Chloe’s Intention (2nd update)

Building 11 of the Stephens Family was empty.

People living behind it stared at the building.

Quite a few people had already gone to Pierce Stephens to discuss the matter.

The occupants of Building 11 were barely gone, and these people were eagerly competing for the right to live there.

Building 3 did not pay attention to this issue.

Instead, Adam Stephens quickly went to Pierce Stephens to bring up the matter of adopting Alex Stephens. Everyone’s attention was focused on seizing Building 11, and Adam took advantage of this opportunity to adopt Alex.

"It’s not the best time for this adoption. The Elder Council might not approve this."

"I wasn’t very satisfied with Rowan Stephens in the first place. Now that he’s made a mistake and hurt himself, I need a successor. After comparing various aspects, I think Alex is the most suitable. Please support me, Father."

Pierce Stephens stared at him quietly, "It will be very troublesome if you want to put him in Building 3."

"As long as Father supports me, it won’t be a problem," Adam thought that this was the right time.

"I will mention it to the Elder Council. As for the subsequent problems, I cannot guarantee anything."

His son was trying to adopt a child, and he should be happy, but in his heart, he was still hoping that his son could have another child.

Thinking of Chloe, Pierce Stephens’ expression became complicated for a moment.

After mentioning his request, Adam went to talk to Charlotte Richardson.

*

There was some distance between Charlotte Richardson and Adam. They only exchanged a few words before parting.

Pierce Stephens came out of the study room and sat with Charlotte in the pavilion. "Adam has proposed to adopt Alex. Do you think there are any other candidates?"

Charlotte replied, "If that’s what Adam wants, let Alex come."

Pierce Stephens looked at his wife and said, "It was Chloe’s idea."

"Oh?"

Charlotte was surprised, "She suggested it?"

Pierce Stephens nodded, "If Chloe hadn’t specifically named him, Adam would probably not adopt any child."

As a father, he knew his son very well.

Charlotte pondered for a moment, "Chloe is a good kid, but she is somewhat..."

"There is something I didn’t tell you. Chloe’s situation has changed somewhat. Last time, she saved Alex’s life, and many people at the scene saw it. Although there’s an inspection report from the Medical Institute, it’s impossible to keep it a secret from those people."

Charlotte listened, baffled.

"What happened to her?"

"Nothing is beyond the realm of possibility in this world. Perhaps due to some factors, her talent was stimulated."

Charlotte nodded, "That’s possible. In that case, let the child stay with me for a while."

"Stay with us?"

"Having the child living with us will help us understand her better."

"Knowing Adam’s protective nature towards his daughter, he might not agree."

"I’ll persuade him," Charlotte looked at Pierce Stephens, "Now it’s up to you to agree."

Pierce Stephens was not used to having a third person living with them. If he were not the family leader, he would have lived like the others with three generations under one roof.

Ever since he became the family leader, he had been living in Building 2. As the son of the family leader, Adam had been allocated a separate Building 3. Although the distance was not very far, they did not bump into each other when both were out and about.

It was as if they were completely separated.

Charlotte suddenly suggested letting Chloe live with them, and Pierce Stephens wasn’t used to it.

"If you have this idea, let’s give it a try. I guess there shouldn’t be any problems on my side."

Charlotte nodded, "I’ll go to Building 3 for dinner today, and I’ll take Alex with me."

Pierce Stephens was startled, "What about me?"

"Don’t you usually eat by yourself?"

Pierce Stephens fell silent.

After leaving the Trial Hall, Alex ran into Ella Stephens.

Ella nodded slightly to him and walked away from the other side.

One of Charlotte’s servants just passed by Ella and walked towards Alex.

"Young Master Alex, the madam asked you to accompany her to Building 3 for dinner in the evening."

Alex was stunned, "Is it the family leader’s wife?"

The person nodded.

With the message delivered, the person left.

Hearing this, Ella frowned and looked at Alex.

It was obvious that Building 3 had chosen Alex as the next stepson.

Now that the orphan Alex had become Adam’s stepson, he would also rise with the tide.

*

Returning to Building 10.

Ella could see other members of the Stephens Family walking around near Building 11.

Entering the living room.

Sophia Fox just hung up the phone and called out to her, "Little Grace."

"Mom."

"The Fisher Family just called and asked about your marriage with Filbert Fisher."

Ella frowned slightly and said, "Mom, let’s just delay our matter for now."

Sophia Fox was surprised, "Didn’t you like Filbert? You get along well with him both inside and outside."

"Mom, that’s not the problem. It’s just that he broke off the engagement with Building 3 not long ago. If I, as his cousin, get engaged to him now, what will that look like?"

"What’s the problem?" Sophia believed Filbert was the most outstanding among their peers and a perfect match for her daughter. "If it wasn’t for your cousin having problems with her brain, would the Fisher Family have called off the engagement?"

"Mom, let me think about it. After all, we are family, and we can’t tear each other apart."

"Their faces were already torn when they called off the engagement, so what are you still worried about?" Sophia didn’t think there was any problem with this.

Ella said, "Let’s see how it goes. I’ll develop a relationship with him first, and we’ll deal with the future when it comes."

"You child..."

"Little Grace is right," Kenneth Stephens came in from outside and heard Sophia’s last sentence, agreeing with his daughter’s idea.

"I was going to have you persuade her. If we miss out on someone as outstanding as Filbert, someone else will seize the opportunity," Sophia still thought it would be better to settle the matter.

Kenneth spoke, "Little Grace has grown a lot in Imperial Capital, and I think the young masters of those noble families there are more suitable for her."

Sophia suddenly understood, "Is there any news from your father’s side?"

Hearing this, Ella thought of the person she brushed past in the Imperial Capital.

What could Sheffield City’s Fisher Family compare to those powerful families in the Imperial Capital?

Kenneth said, "There is no news for now, but Little Grace is right. We should wait and see. Given the current situation of the Stephens Family, let’s find an excuse to stall them for now."

Seeing that her husband and daughter shared the same idea, Sophia nodded.

"Building 3 chose Alex as their next stepson."

Kenneth’s expression turned cold, "It was expected."

"Don’t we need to stop it?" For some reason, Ella felt vaguely worried.

"No need. Do you really think Adam will treat an orphan warmly?" In Kenneth’s eyes, Adam was trying to control this orphan.

Ella pursed her lips but still felt somewhat uneasy.

However, seeing her father’s expression, Ella didn’t say anything else.

*

In the evening, Chloe returned from outside and saw Alex and Charlotte getting out of the car.

Charlotte personally went to pick up Alex, who was overwhelmed by the attention.

As soon as the two got out of the car, they saw Chloe returning and looked at her.

Alex nodded slightly to Chloe.

Charlotte couldn’t help but look at Chloe, "Today is Saturday. Why weren’t you at home studying with everyone?"
