Chapter 725
When | returned to the room, Steven was still sitting on the floor, covered by the sblanket.
Resigned, | asked, "Isn't the floor cold?"
He was deliberately sitting on the floor.
Was he planning to sit there all night long if | had returned late? Was he doing all this just to guilt-trip me?
With teary eyes, Steven looked atbegrudgingly and said, "My legs are numb

numb?"
Steven's ears turned red. 'You're so shameless now, Stephie-'
| couldn't help but tease, "Am | shameless, or are you the perverted one here?"

He then said softly, "It won't. My brain doesn't have the tto wonder about my leg now-it's occupied enough
worrying about your safety."
He managed to makelaugh. | looked away and wiped my tears, asking, "Are you a lovestruck fool?" Steven
gave it sserious thought before nodding. 'I'm only lovestruck for you, Stephie."
| burst out laughing helplessly. "I hope Ashton doesn't inherit your romantic mindset." Speaking of which, Andy
wasn't a lovestruck fool either. So, who did Steven inherit that trait from?
"I only belong to you, Stephie.' He leaned against the wall for support and huggedtight.
Irested my chin on his shoulders. It felt good just to stay quietly with him.
"I'm afraid to let Michael get in contact with Jimmy. Jimmy is the only person who can reach the person backing
Sarah up. Michael might be able to help us if he's smart enough,’ | said. My biggest concern now was that he

Rachel would use her own way to protect her loved one, as she should.
"As for Eason, he wouldn't die with Joel around," he said softly.
| felt relieved. Everyone had someone they wanted to protect.
"If anyone has to sacrifice, | hope we'll both die together, Steven," | whispered as | held Steven's hand.
