Chapter 46 Are You Waiting for Me?


    He didn''t understand Keegan''s meaning at that time. Many yearster, he finally learned that his


    brother was trying to protect him and didn''t want him and Frank to fight each other.


    But he really didn''t fight with Frank. It was just that in the year he turned sixteen, Frank wanted to kill


    him. He withdrew from the family feud, but Frank still wanted him dead.


    During the years he moved to Soul Ind, Frank attacked him several times. Finally, he was freed


    when he had Pes. He went to France for three years. To others, he had been there to heal his legs,


    while in fact, Archer got his legs recovered within six months.


    He spent the remaining two and a half years training day and night in the organization. He wanted so


    badly to listen to his brother and notpete for the family business, but if he was going to stay alive,


    he had to be strong.


    Frank wanted to kill him, so how could he not fight for it? And now his mother was once again asking


    him to give up the presidency to Frank. If he agreed, maybe he would soon be put to death by Frank!


    Could he still take that risk? Even so, he now had Emmeline by his side. He seemed to have seen a


    good future ahead. He had to be strong to protect his woman and the people he was supposed to


    protect.


    "Mother, Frank, and I are both your children. Why is it that only Frank can be the president and I


    can''t? Grandpa dered personally that the presidency belongs to me. How could I give this position to


    Frank?" There was mockery in his eyes, but more precisely, depression.


    "Stefan, Frank has made a great contribution to thepany for so many years. He should be the real


    candidate for the president of the Byrne Group. Grandpa only gave you this position because he loves


    you. You can''t possibly be qualified for this position. You''d better give it back to Frank." Ciara could no


    longer resist exposing what was on her mind.


    It seemed that she was concerned about Stefan''s health and was afraid that he would suffer for the


    Byrne Group, while on the other hand, she was trying to get Stefan to give up his position as president.


    "Mother, didn''t you hear that Grandpa asked me personally to be the president of the Byrne Group. It


    hasn''t even been a day, and you''re asking me to give the position to Frank. What would Grandpa think


    of me, the grandson he had such high hopes for, if he knew?"


    He looked at Ciara with sharp eyes, "I will not disobey Grandpa. Mother, please forgive me!"

    "You ..." Ciara red at Stefan. She hadn''t cared for him for years, and she didn''t expect him not to be


    the same obedient andpliant little boy anymore.


    He kept calling her mother and asking her for forgiveness. He didn''t call her mom, which meant he was


    distant from her. He rebuffed politely, and there was nothing she could do about it even if she was


    partial to Frank.


    "Well, Stefan, since Grandpa has given you this responsibility, you should manage the Byrne Group


    well." Callum finally spoke up.


    "I will, Father." Stefan wheeled to leave. He didn''t even look at the people in the conference room, but


    walked out with Paul and Chand and went straight into the president''s office.


    Stefan''s sess as president at the shareholders'' meeting created an uproar throughout X City.


    And Emmeline didn''t know anything about it on Soul Ind. In the evening, Paul and Stefan returned to


    the ind.


    Emmeline waited on the beach and saw the car stop on the beach from afar. She walked over quickly


    and pushed the wheelchair.


    Stefan opened the car door. Seeing the girl''s soft little face, his tiredness disappeared instantly.


    "Are you waiting for me? Ma''am."


    Emmeline smiled and nodded, "I''m waiting for you toe back for dinner. You should be back at this


    hour if there are no social engagements."


    Stefan got into his wheelchair and took Emmeline''s hand, "I will be very busy in the future. Don''t wait


    for me to have dinner if you are hungry."


    Emmeline pushed his wheelchair towards the vi, "I can wait. Are youfortable with your first day


    at the Byrne Group today?"


    "Yes, ma''am. Don''t you know your husband? In every way, I am the strongest." He looked into her dark


    blue eyes.


    He decided in his mind that he would not let anyone hurt his girl.


    He had wanted to let his grandfather know today that his legs were healed. He had thought that if the


    shareholders of the Byrne Group made a scene today, he would just stand up and deal with them one


    by one.


    But nothing happened today. He remembered Emmeline''s words: I''ll leave when your legs is healed.


    The reason that he didn''t want his legs to "recover" was also because he was afraid she would leave.


    So he would not let her know that his legs were healed until he had to.


    Back at the vi, Emmeline carefully helped him eat and bathe.


    Then Stefan went to his study to take care of his work. A whileter, he called Asher, "Get someone to


    clean the Sweedal Residence. I''ll be moving in in a couple of days."


    "You''re going to live in your own house in X City? Didn''t Mr. Byrne ask you to live in the Bryne


    Mansion?" Asher asked in surprise.


    "I don''t want to live there. I''ll just live in Sweedal Residence."


    "Okay, I''ll get someone to clean up. By the way, Stefan, do you want to live alone with your wife? No


    wonder you don''t live at the Byrne Mansion since you are cuddle your beautiful wife every day."


    Asherughed. Just as he finished speaking, Stefan saw Emmeline carrying tea and pushed the door


    in.


    He hung up the phone and waved to Emmeline, "Come here."


    Emmeline walked up to him, "Are you going to workte? I made tea for you. You should not drink


    coffee at night, and I''ll massage your legs while you sleep."


    Stefan didn''t say anything, but pulled Emmeline onto hisp, "Honey, you’ve been working too much.


    We''re going to stay in X City for a few days. If there''s anything you want to do, just let me know."


    Emmeline looked at his gentle face, "Is it inconvenient for you to go to the office every day, so you are


    going to stay in X City?"


    "Well, yes. Once we go there, I''ll have Paul to take care of me when I go to the office during the day,


    and then you can go to school." He reached out and stroked her long, soft hair.


    "But, honey, even if you go to school, you have to remember that you are married and have to keep


    your distance from the men. Understand?" His eyes were soft.


    He gently squeezed the girl''s shoulder with his big warm hand.


    Emmeline stared at him. He really let her go to school!


    "Well, if you don''t feelfortable, I''ll stay home. It''s okay if I don''t go to school." She just said it


    casually that day, and he actually took it seriously.


    If she did go to school, how would she face Agnes and the others? And did Antonio go to America?


    She was actually afraid to see them.


    "I promised you that I would let you go to school." In fact, he was not at ease with her going to school.


    Not for anything else, this time Frank did not take the presidency, and he believed that he would fight


    with him for all the days toe.


    He just wanted to reassure her and didn''t want her to be in danger where he couldn''t see her.


    Emmeline did not speak. In fact, he had given her the greatest reward by convincing Edison not to


    me the Campbell family. Even if he didn''t let her go to school, she wouldn''t me him.


    Stefan hugged the woman in his arms and suddenly felt full of energy. He had to take the next step well


    and give this girl happiness.


    "Go to bed. I still have some business to deal with. I''lle to you when I''m done." He gently patted


    her on the back.
