NovelEnglishChapter 764 Steven followed Zachary into the bedroom, only to freeze in place the moment he stepped inside.
The walls were completely covered with photos of Annalise.
On the desk, a small robot suddenly spoke in Annalise's signature gentle voice. "Welchome, my dear son." Steven stared in disbelief. Zachary, seated in front of the robot, smiled and responded, "Yes, Mom. I'm home." "Welcback." Annalise's voice sounded soothing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZachary continued, "But we have an unwelcguest today." The robot offered a solution in the swarm voice, "Should we call someone else over to get rid of him?" Zachary looked at Steven.
He had managed to endure his longing for Annalise through the robot and the countless photos surrounding him, but what about Steven? When he saw Steven staring at his treasured robot, Zachary's expression darkened. "Did you hear that? You're not welchere. Leave." Steven stood frozen for a moment before finally asking, "Can I ask who gave you this robot?" "No." Zachary's expression remained stony.
Steven averted his gaze, shifting his focus to Zachary instead. Initially, he was shocked, as he had no idea where Zachary had gotten such a robot-he had even considered getting one for himself.
However, seeing how fiercely Zachary guarded it sent a chill down his spine.
Only then did Steven realize that Zachary's condition was worse than his own.
He said seriously, "Zachary, I think we really need to talk." Zachary laughed at that. "And in what capacity do you want to talk to me?" Steven replied, "As your father, of course!" Zachary said calmly, "But you already made it clear a long tago that you're not my father anymore.
So, do you have any other identity to use? If not, then you should leave." At first, Zachary didn't mind talking to him. But then, something in Steven's gaze made him uncomfortable, and he lost interest in continuing the conversation have other things to do. I don't have tfor this nonsense." At that moment, the robot's voice chimed in, puzzled, "Sweetheart, you don't sound very happy. Are you upset?" Zachary sighed, sounding aggrieved. "A little. But don't worry, I'll handle it." Steven silently observed their interaction, and for a brief moment, he thought maybe having a robot like this wouldn't be so bad. It wouldn't change the fact that his emotions were a mess, but at least it could ease the loneliness of Annalise's absence.
He asked, "Can you givethis robot?" "Absolutely not," Zachary refused without hesitation.

Having the robot by his side made him feel like his mother's was still present and that he was loved.
Steven wanted to push further, but before he could, Zachary raised his voice and shouted, "We have an unwelcguest! Please see him out."
Steven barely had tto react before Hannah, Harry, and Portian arrived. All three of them wore unfriendly expressions. Portia's expression darkened as she said, "I'll escort you out." Steven glanced at the robot one last tbefore reluctantly following her.
Portia walked behind him until they reached the hallway. "Let's talk downstairs." Steven nodded. "Fine."
The moment they stepped out of the elevator, Portia said, "Back then,m when you said you wouldn't raise Zachary, I made everything clear to you, didn't I? Youve et agreed to all the conditions I set. So what are you doing?"
