Chapter 583: Chapter 583 His Back Is Quite Like That Man’s

This was a button-shaped positioning, which had been sewed under the pattern of the swallow’s body in the companion’s gift early before.

There was a positioning in every companion’s gift.

Furthermore, in order to prevent from accidentally touching it, she had used a very difficult cross-shaped embroidery technique. Only by using the embroidery technique that Alena knew would she be able to trigger it.

Ignoring the gunshot wound on his shoulder, Marlon immediately took the laptop and turned on the GPS tracker.

Five seconds later, he figured out that the GPS was located in Keith’s house!

So it must be the basement where he had hidden her.

Now as long as they knew where the mechanism for opening the basement ws, they could find her.

Marcus immediately came up with a plan to explore Keith’s villa again.

On the day of the execution, Marcus didn’t manage to get in because he had received reliable news that Keith had suddenly invited famous royal tomb craftsmen to install the famous "Firesand" in the villa a few days ago.

The "Firesand", as its name implied, could devour the entire villa in an instant.

He was turning his home into a graveyard.

Keith was a lunatic!

Marcus hesitated because it was not only related to the lives of the people who went in, but also Alena’s life, which was hidden in the basement.

Everyone was shocked by what Keith had done!

What kind of person would install the "Firesand" in his own home?

What on earth happened to make him so extreme...

In this way, the search for her could only be postponed.

Marcus had sought out many old craftsmen to understand the characteristics of the "Firesand", hoping to find a way to break through.

After a few days, he found that there was no breakthrough. The only breakthrough point was to lure Keith out and enter his house to quickly investigate.

However, Keith hadn’t gone out for many days in a row. No matter who invited him, he refused.

This made the crowd even more anxious as to what they should do.

Because of this, Yvette had been feeling uneasy for many days.

Stephen could tell that she was in a bad mood. Marlon also needed to rest recently, so he proposed to take her to the restaurant for dinner.

She didn’t have much interest, but he had helped her a lot and spared no effort to help her with her mother’s matter.

She didn’t want to disappoint him, so she agreed.

Today was the day of the Witchcraft Festival. Legend had it that Witchcraft and Mabel, a mortal, had fallen in love with each other and broken through their difficulties, and then benefited the human race together.

As a result, many young men and women of the right age in Iceland would go on dates on this day. Those who were married would also go out this day. Consequently, the Witch Festival was somewhat similar to Valentine’s Day in the West.

The reason why Stephen called her out for dinner today was that there would be some local activities that were very special. The more people there were, the better Yvette’s mood would be.

The streets were decorated with lanterns and ribbons, which were very beautiful.

Looking at the lively scene in front of her, Yvette had indeed forgotten her worries for a while.

The two of them walked along the bustling street for a while. Stephen was afraid that someone would bump into her, so he held her hand tightly and protected her with his other hand.

When Yvette was shopping, she inadvertently glanced around and saw a familiar figure standing on the stairs outside the store.

She was stunned and looked up again. There was a man standing there. Except for his height, he did not look like him at all.

She felt that she must have been dizzy. How could Lance appear here when he was recovering in home?

Logically speaking, he still needed another month of rehabilitation, and it wasn’t as if he had recovered completely.

In the next few months, he had to be careful that he couldn’t do heavy work, and he had to avoid it.

"What are you looking at?" Stephen saw her staring at a place and asked her.

Yvette shook her head. "Nothing."

She didn’t know why she thought of another man as him, so she didn’t dare to think too much about it.

Recently, because of her mother, she felt that she hadn’t thought of him for a long time.

It should be a good sign.

It turned out that it was this kind of feeling to slowly forget someone...

This feeling of slowly forgetting something did not hurt. It was just like at this moment, she stood at the corner of the street, and her heart felt as if it had been twisted by a needle because of a familiar figure, .

When they arrived at the restaurant, Yvette’s face was covered in sweat.

Stephen considerately handed her a handkerchief to wipe her sweat. When she sat down, many of the dishes on the table were seafood.

He knew that she liked seafood and that there were a lot of seafood resources. However, due to her pregnancy, Yvette was afraid of eating too much, so she ate very little.

On the other hand, Stephen had done his work for tonight’s dinner. Pregnant women were allowed to eat as much as they wanted to replenish their seafood.

Hearing this, Yvette was relieved and began to eat boldly.

However, it was troublesome to peel off some food with shells. Stephen peeled a few shrimps for her and picked out some other things. Soon, the plate in front of Yvette was filled up.

Embarrassed, she said, "Stephen, peel it for yourself. This is enough."

Stephen continued to peel the food and piled it up on her plate. He then said, "You can eat today. You won’t be able to eat after the confinement."

There were about two weeks left beforeher due date.

Therefore, this was also a major factor in everyone’s consideration. If sh was asked to go home to give birth at this time, she would definitely be worried.

If there was any danger, it would be beyond their reach.

There were at least so many people here to take care of her. There would definitely be no problem for her to give birth.

They could only postpone the matter of Keith’s house again and again.

Seeing her eating happily and contentedly, h didn’t feeel that there was a smile on his face.

After thinking for a while, he still told her what he wanted to say.

"Yvette, after getting along with me for a while, I find that I seem to have changed from having a good impression of you to liking you more."

This sudden confession stunned her.

"Stephen, you..."

She didn’t know what to say. The last time he said that was in New York.

But at that time, what he meant was that he lacked a marriage partner.

Unlike today, when he said that he liked her.

Yvette felt that his solemn attitude today could be considered a confession...

A sense of burden arose spontaneously.

Stephen didn’t want to put her in a difficult position, so he explained, "I want you to give me a chance to pursue you. Of course, you can refuse, but I still want to fight for myself."

He paused for a moment and said, "Let me praise myself first, okay?"

His tone was humorous, and it seemed that the psychological burden on her had been greatly reduced. She smiled and said, "Okay."

His intention was to adjust her nervous mood, but after she said she could listen to it, he became a little nervous.

Being single for thirty years, it was the first time that he had such feelings.

"Although my native family is not very compatible, I have already separated from them. I will not have any bad habits in the future, nor will I cheat on you. I only love you in this life. If we can set up a family, I will work hard to become a good father for the family. As for the children, if you don’t want to, we will not have children. Isabel, Eric and Dylan are the only children in my life."

Eric and Dylan were the nicknames that she gave to the baby in her belly.

The name didn’t have a literal meaning like formal personal name, but she still remembered that her grandmother, who had raised her when she was a child, had said that a baby with lowly name was easy to raise.

Just like the boys in the village were called tony, girls would call tiny tot.

It was all for the sake of a good life.

She also believed it and gave them a very ordinary nickname.

She hoped that they could grow up safely like ordinary people and live a good life.

To be honest, his last offer was very tempting.

He was willing to treat her three children as his only children instead of having his own children. This kind of determination was not something an ordinary man could achieve.

However, she had always felt that she might never fall in love again.

It was said that love was very likely to be sad.

She had gone through so many difficulties and obstacles, but in the end, she didn’t have a good ending.

She suddenly thought of Ellen Robbins. Back then, her so-called love severed her wings and she fell into the abyss, doomed eternally.

But now that she was out, she seemed to be living a good life.

She thought about the three children again. She was confident that she could raise them well, but would it affect their personality if they lacked the role of fathers since they were young?

Seeing that she was troubled, he said, "Yvette, you don’t have to answer me now. Everything needs time. Let’s get through this first, and then take it slow. It doesn’t matter even if you refuse me in the end."

The more he said, the more she felt embarrassed.

"Stephen, my situation is different from that of ordinary people. I’m very afraid that it will delay you in the end..."

What she said was true. Stephen had a good character, but she was not sure if she could try to develop any special feelings for him.

At least for now, she was sure that she had always regarded him as an existence similar to her brother.

There was a kinship between them.

She was not sure if this relationship would change because she was willing to try to get in touch with him.

Giving any response now would be irresponsible.

Therefore, she was in a dilemma...

Stephen said with a smile, "Yvette, it’s all my choice. You don’t have to worry about it. I’m attracted by you, so I’m naturally responsible for my own efforts."

"Anyway, don’t feel burdened. I don’t want to use the fake marital relationship as an excuse to get close to you. It’s very dirty."

"I hope to express my feelings openly, but you have the right to take a step back at any time."

"..."

Not to mention Yvette, anyone who heard this would be touched.

It was not about love, but about Stephen’s frank and good character. She was touched.

He was such a frank person, Yvette didn’t even think that she was worthy of his love.

She thought for a moment and said, "Stephen, thank you very much for your love..."

Her words were mostly a refusal template.

Stephen’s eyes darkened slightly. The reason why he didn’t need her to answer now was that he didn’t want to hear her refusal so soon.

In this way, he wouldn’t even have the right to like her.

"I’ll think about what you said," said Yvette.

He didn’t expect her to say that. He was stunned and didn’t know what to say.

She felt that at least she did not dislike him. If she wanted to establish a family, he would definitely be a good choice.

Moreover, she also wanted to be a better person who could guide the children.

With the help of a stable partner, she would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

When she had only one child in the past, she might not have considered these things and felt that she could do it alone. But when the baby in her belly was about to be born, she thought more and more about it.

Obviously, Stephen was a man with a stable mood, but he was not a man who could say sweet words.

After holding it in for a long time, he said, "Thank you, Yvette."

She found it interesting and wittily replied, "Thank you too, Stephen."

Since she wanted to try to change the way she addressed him, the first thing she did was to change the way she called him. If she kept calling him Stephen, it was really easy to call him the same kind of person as Marlon and not a high-quality man.

Stephen felt that the joy in his heart was about to overflow.

When they came out of the restaurant, it began to snow again.

Everything was good in Iceland, but it was too cold. Every time Yvette wore thick clothes and wrapped herself up, she could go out.

After Stephen helped her put on the furry gloves, he led her back.

Tonight, there were too many people on the street. If they didn’t hold hands, they would easily bump into each other.

But tonight, as if she had been possessed, she saw the man’s figure not far away. This figure was even more familiar than before.

The outline of his back was very prominent. For a moment, she felt that it was that man.

When Stephen saw that she was absent-minded again, he followed her gaze and looked forward. With just one glance, he understood.

That figure looked quite like that man.

However, Yvette quickly adjusted her mood and pulled his hand, saying, "Stephen, let’s go."

Stephen had thought that he could go forward and take a look, not because he was generous, but because of the relationship between Lance and Yvette. It was not something that could be avoided without talking.

It was better to be frank. In the face of their relationship and the child, as the child’s father, it was impossible for Lance not to meet her for the rest of his life.

He wanted to get used to it in advance.

In order to be natural and not embarrassed when they met in the future.

However, since she had said it like that, he could not say anything else and nodded.

"Okay, let’s go."

On the way back, she was not in high spirits, probably because she had mistaken passers-by twice.

She didn’t know what was wrong with her. Why did she always think of that person?

After returning home, Stephen sent her to the gate of the manor and took out a bag of calming plant incense for her.

This was what he asked from the elders who had raised children. They all said that it was very peaceful and had no side effects on pregnant women.

After getting it, he showed it to the doctor. After confirming that there was no problem, he gave it to her.

Recently, she didn’t have a good rest. As she got more and more pregnant, sleeping became more and more difficult for her.

He noticed that there were dark circles around her eyes.

Yvette took it, thanked him, and went in, ready to see her brother first.

However, as soon as he entered the hall, the herb in her hand suddenly fell to the ground!
