Chapter 2033
After saying these words, Eugene left, but Zion was in a mess.
What did he mean by saying that he was Nathaniel's son?
What did he mean by keeping a low profile?
Wasn't he low profile enough?
He didn't beat the drum and say anything else.
All of a sudden, Zion realized something. He took out his mobile phone and turned on the camera function. When the camera was aimed at him, he saw that his neck was full of hickeys.
Well, at this moment, if he had a daughter, he would probably want to destroy that guy.
Eugene got on the plane and asked someone to take off, leaving no chance for Zion.
Sooner or later, he would be his son-in-law. Now, he couldn't bear to see him doing something to her daughter.
Then he looked at the exhausted Evangeline, who was sleeping soundly. Eugene's heart was so cold.
Zion watched the plane get farther and farther away. Finally, he could no longer see it. It was as if something was missing in his heart, and it was no longer complete.
He went back to his villa. It was so empty that he was not used to it.
Zion was about to go back to his room to take a shower when he heard that a certain room had been opened. Esmeralda leaned against the door with her cane and looked at Zion with a complicated expression.
He had forgotten about her.
"Do you have something to ask me?"
"Are you really not my brother?"
The incident with the Laurent family had already been blown up.
It was a joyous celebration in the whole border area, and the legend about Zion was also publicized.
Esmeralda saw it when she played with her phone, and then she was stunned.
How was that possible?
But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the Laurent family could not produce such a good son like Nathaniel.
However, her heart was suddenly filled with disappointment and sadness.
Zion looked at her and said indifferently, "Serena has a cooperation with the Mo family, so she kept you safe. You're not a child of the Laurent family, and you didn't do anything against reason. So it has nothing to do with you whether I'm Klaus or not."
"But you are not my brother. In the future, I will..."
Esmeralda suddenly shut her mouth.
What?
She could no longer stay by his side as his sister.
Esmeralda knew that her feelings for Zion were not romantic. It was really the feeling of being a brother and sister.
She was the only child. Although there were many older brothers and sisters, there was no family affection in the Laurent family. In addition to her mother, Zion and Evangeline were the only ones who had given her family warmth.
She had thought that she could continue to stay by Zion's side as the tenth daughter of the Laurent family, but she hadn't expected that Zion wasn't Klaus at all.
His identity was noble and sacred. It was something that she, a member of a dark family, could not touch.
Esmeralda suddenly felt like crying. Her eyes were red like a rabbit's.
In fact, Esmeralda and Rita didn't look alike at all, but Zion inexplicably thought of Rita.
He didn't know how the girl was doing.
As for her thoughts, Zion could actually guess a few things. If it was someone else, he could ignore them. However, when he thought of Evangeline and the interaction of her and Esmeralda, Zion's heart softened a little.
You can treat me as brother-in-law in the
future."
"Ah?"
Esmeralda was still upset when she was suddenly stunned by Zion's words.
"Brother-in-law?"
Seeing her puzzled expression, Zion said patiently, "My wife likes you, so you can take her as your sister. If I want to marry her later, you have to call me brother- in- law. As for brother, don't think about it. I have a younger sister, a biological sister! I can only give her all my brotherly love for her in this life."
After that, Zion lifted his foot and walked away. After taking two steps, he stopped and said in a low voice, "But if you really want to call me brother, it's not impossible."
Her words immediately lit Esmeralda's eyes up.
She liked Evangeline. It was not a big deal to take her as an elder sister, but she just wanted an elder brother who could protect her.
Now that she heard Zion say that there was such an opportunity, she would naturally not let it go.
"What method?"
Zion's smile suddenly became a little strange.
"Do you still remember the man who beat you up like this?"
Esmeralda gritted her teeth.
How could she not remember?
Now her ribs were still broken.
Zion glanced at her and said with a smile, "That's my brother. Although he’s not my real brother, he's no different from a real brother. He'll probably stay with me in the future, live in my house, and become a family. So if you really want to call me brother, you can consider marrying him and being my sister-in-law. Anyway, sister-in-law is also my sister, right?"
After that, Zion went straight into the room.
Esmeralda was in a complete mess.
Sister-in-law?
Marry Anton?
She wanted to hit him as soon as she thought of the big straight man. However, when she thought of what Zion had said just now, he said that if she married Anton, she would live in the Ye family with Anton in the future and become a family with Zion, Esmeralda was a little tempted.
Sister-in-law was also a sister!
There was nothing wrong with his words!
However, to marry Anton?
Esmeralda was a little conflicted.
She had to think about it.
Zion did not know her conflicted mood at this moment. He simply felt that Anton's parents had died. Now he was alone and pitiful. Even if he lived in the Ye family, he really treated him as a family. However, sometimes, the pain in his heart was not something that he, as a brother, could comfort.
So he might as well let him have a romantic relationship and have a thought. Maybe Esmeralda could make him feel better.
Besides, although Esmeralda didn't have any special skills, she had a mother like Serena, and Esmeralda was simple and lovely. She was also a perfect match for a straight man like Anton, who didn't have any scheming.
Anton still didn't know that he had been sold by his brother. He was exploring the Dark Forest alone and missing his parents by the way. He was very depressed.
Zion went back to his room and took a shower. Then he went to the study and turned on his computer. As expected, he received a message from Mylo.
The other party had already locked Maximilian in a secret place, and the evidence in their hands had been handed over to Zion.
Only now did Zion understand why Maximilian had targeted him from the very beginning.
It turned out that when Maximilian was taking the college entrance examination that year, he performed a task and caused a bus to be blocked for more than half an hour. Maximilian missed the time for the college entrance examination because of this half an hour, and got a zero on his homework.
As a result, the results of Maximilian dropped a lot. Later, when Acoff went to find his son, he also sneered at his failure. If it were not for the sake of keeping him alive, he would never admit that the Maximilian had his blood.
Therefore, he put all the blame on Zion. He investigated Zion and learned of the existence of Evangeline, Zion's partner. Then, he used Evangeline to make Zion lose his mind while performing a mission. His purpose was to let Zion take off his military uniform and leave the military region with an unclear mistake. However, he did not expect that Zion would make such a choice in the future.
Seeing the information, Zion narrowed his eyes but didn't say anything. Instead, he sent a careful message to Mylo.

Mylo's reply stunned Zion.
