    Chapter 1987


    On the same day, Emily Flowers held a press conference and said that she would never acknowledge


    the baby in Lina’s stomach as the Stephenson family’s future heir. She also openly doubted that the


    baby in Lina’s stomach was not her son’s. At the same time, Emily Flowers stated that Lina was only a


    vain woman who thought she could get to the top with the baby in her stomach and she hoped her son


    would not be deceived again.


    If her son persisted, she would use her ten percent shares in Stephenson Group to join forces with


    other shareholders to oppose her son from remaining as Stephenson Group’s president.


    It was because a man fooled by a woman was no longer fit to


    be president.


    Emily Flowers made an impassioned speech at the press conference, saying that she must protect


    Stephenson Group, which was left by herte husband. Even though Hadwin Stephenson was her own


    son, she could not sit idly by and watch her son destroy thepany.


    In the office, Hadwin Stephenson looked coldly at the video of the press conference on theputer


    screen and smiled sarcastically.

    ‘But she seems to have forgotten that I gave her that ten percent of shares. Since I could give it to her,


    I’ve thought of all possible consequences!


    Lina, who was resting in Stephenson Residence, saw the press conference too. When Hadwin


    Stephenson came home, Lina said uneasily, “I’m sorry. You and your mother are in this state because


    of me.”


    Although she disliked Emily Flowers, she was his mother, after all.


    Hadwin Stephenson said, “You’re just a trigger. Even without you, my mother and I would havee to


    this point sooner orter.”


    There was a look of confusion in her eyes.


    He said sarcastically, “To my mother, I’m just a pawn for her to gain power and wealth. The most


    important thing for a pawn is to obey. If it stops obeying, she would need to get a new


    one.”


    Lina’s face was full of shock, not expecting the mother and son’s rtionship to be… this way. Although

    However, she felt a little heartbroken after the shock.


    When they met in a foreign country, he looked like a simple young man to her, innocent and sunny.


    However, she never expected him to carry so many burdens.


    “Alright, don’t look at me like that. It’s as if I’m pathetic.” Hadwin Stephenson looked at the woman


    before him, who seemed like she was about to burst into tears. He said, “I don’t mind being a pawn.


    Even if I’m going to be someone’s pawn someday, I’ll probably be willing.”


    After so many years, he was used to having his mother treat him like a pawn. They had never been


    close anyway.


    Even now, how was he not Lina’s pawn? Even though she said nothing, he was willing to fight for her. If


    she was going to use him one day, then… all she needed to do was ask him. He would be willing to do

    The next moment, those slender arms were wrapped around him with such force that her melodious


    voice broke a little.


    “You’re not a pawn. You’re you, not anyone’s pawn!”
