A Miracle Fault novel Chapter 74

There were a lot of dishes on the table, including both delicacies and home-cooked dishes.

It was the first time that the four men had had a meal in the presence of Emmeline.

Stefan kept serving dishes to Emmeline like a mom who was afraid that her child didn't have enough to eat. And Jaiden, Arthur and Asher watched him doing that.

It made Emmeline embarrassed.

So, she whispered to Stefan, "Stop it. I'm full."

Jaiden, Arthur and Asher couldn't believe this man was Stefan who was cold usually. The man in front of them was totally different from the man who had endured humiliation for years in order to make accomplishments.

They also thought Stefan started slobbering over Emmeline when he was in love.

Jaiden, Arthur and Asher who grew up with Stefan kept complaining in mind. Finally, they finished the meal.

Since Stefan knew the three wanted to talk with him, he said to Emmeline silently standing beside him, "I need to talk with them. You go to prepare first. I will come later."

Probably because Stefan's eyes and voice indicated his softness, those normal words made Emmeline blushed.

The three didn't want to look at the couple because they were too intimate. They had already got angry.

Emmeline answered him with her head down, "Okay."

She turned away and left hurriedly, which made her look cute.

Jaiden, Arthur and Asher followed Stefan to his study after she left.

Entering the study, Jaiden, who always joked around, suddenly turned into a serious man.

"Stefan, how do you plan to deal with Frank? He is planning something bigger. We don't what kind of mess he will make if we don't stop him."

It was clear for all of them how cruel Frank was. During these years, Frank just wanted Stefan dead. But he had never made it.

Therefore, they wanted to stop him, knowing that Frank was planning something bigger.

They wanted to nip his plan in the bud. It would be better to kill him, who wanted to kill his brother for the position of president of the Byrne Group.

Listening to Jaiden's words, Stefan sneered since he had been clear about Frank's move.

He stood up from the wheelchair and walked to the window, saying, "Take it easy. I want to see what Frank can do. I want to beat him in his best efforts. That will be worthy of my suffering for these years."

"I can't kill him for the sake of grandpa! And my elder brother in heaven wouldn't allow it." Stefan looked at the sun in the sky, feeling cold inside.

The three understood Stefan after listening to his words.

Although they were worried about him, they would respect his choice. They said, "We will keep an eye on Frank's every move from now on. We won't let him do any dirty work."

"OK." Stefan nodded.

He looked out the window, immersed in his thoughts.

For him, Frank, who had been itching to take his life, was not his brother anymore.

But he was worried about his grandpa's health. That was why he hadn't stopped Frank's villainy for these years.

Stefan didn't want his grandpa to watch his grandsons fighting against each other, which might affected grandpa's health. Also, his elder brother Keegan had dissuaded him on his deathbed from retaliating against Frank. If it weren't for them, Stefan would have killed Frank a thousand times. He had the capacity and influence to do it.

It only took several words to made Frank disappear in this world.

Thinking about these, Stefan kept silent beside the window.

Seeing them not talking for a while, Stefan said, "Is there anything else?"

They surely gathered here with concern for Stefen. Stefan put on an impatient face, though he felt warm in his heart.

"Nope." Asher answered. He hadn't said a word just now.

Actually, they didn't have anything to discuss with Stefan. It was Jaiden and Arthur who wanted to find an excuse to see Stefan's sweetheart, which Asher couldn't understand.

The four of them grew up together. They would sleep in the same bed if they were drunk.

Why did Stefan find an excuse to send them out like they were strangers?

Was it because Stefan had a beautiful wife?

But Stefan didn't notice Asher who was preoccupied with thoughts, as his mind was completely occupied by Emmeline.

He said, "I'm going if there is not anything else. Make yourself at home."

He sat down on the wheelchair and moved the wheelchair out towards Emmeline's room.

"Don't you need to discuss things with them? How did you get it done so soon?" Emmeline asked Stefan when she saw him coming in. She was preparing a new treatment for his legs.

She went to push his wheelchair unconsciously. She didn't expect he would come so soon.

Though she seemed light-hearted, she was still moody about what happened yesterday.

Stefan found she avoided his gaze when talking with him.

So, he held her in his arms.

And he asked her softly, "Are you still unhappy about what happened yesterday? What should I do to make you happy?"

Stefan had never imagined he would put aside his pride just to make someone laugh before he met this woman.

"I'm not unhappy. Let me go. I'm pressing your legs." Being held by Stefan, Emmeline could feel his warm breath when he talked.

She had resisted his getting close to her out of sullenness. Now his words and intimacy made her blush.

She knew deep inside that it was rare that Stefan, with such an indifferent personality, would be willing to comfort her for several times.
