Chapter 206 The Past of the Lewis Family
Ziana didn’t dare to think about it anymore, but she couldn’t fall asleep either.
She looked at the ceiling. Her eyes gradually became slack, but her thoughts became clearer.
She didn’t know much about the internal strife in the Lewis family.
The only piece of information was what Ms. Chris told her after Boris was selected as the first choice of her fiancé.
The Lewis family is a hundred–year–old wealthy family, counting up to three generations, starting from the generation of grandfather Zezili who made a fortune.
When Zezili was in charge of the Lewis family, it was a time of social disorder and loose control.
He was in some gray businesses, which was more or less illegal in the current environment.
But at that time, no one cared, and even officials and businessmen colluded to make a fortune together.
Zezili was quite sophisticated and looked like a fish in water in the social circle. He has made many friends and also many enemies.
However, he never put those enemies in his eyes, and he didn’t know that the revenge would make him suffer for a lifetime.
After all, at that time, he had a successful career, married a woman he loved and gave birth to a little boy. He had it all at that time.
He named his son Lucas Lewis, which meant full bloom and vigorous life.
Unfortunately, when Lucas was nine years old, he disappeared.
When he saw him again, he had turned into a corpse.
His short life came to an abrupt end, with no possibility of flourishing again.
The body was packed in a big plastic bag and delivered to the door of the Lewis family.
Grandma Lewis was alone at home. When she opened the big plastic bag and saw her son, she was overwhelmed with grief and fainted.
Grandpa Zezili rushed home when he heard the news, and opened the plastic bag with trembling hands.
His son, the crystallization of him and his beloved woman, had his legs amputated, and his throat was cut. He was tortured to death.
Zezili was heartbroken, but hatred supported him to persevere.
He quickly learned that it was his enemy’s doing and it took him two years to send the enemy to prison step by step.
But at that time, the torrent of the times was rushing forward. It long pasted the time when he can control everything with his money and reputation.
The death of his son and the depression of his wife made Zezili decide to conduct legal business going forward.
He started a serious business and gradually got on the right track, but his wife’s depression became more serious and her health worsened.
He knew that what happened to his son back then was the root of everything, so in order to let her wife get rid of the pain, he began to look for Lucas‘ substitute.
His hard work paid off. Zezili adopted a child who looked a bit like Lucas in the orphanage.
He named him Scott Lewis.
With Scott’s arrival, a family that was on the verge of collapse became full of vigor and vitality again.
Zezili and his wife raised this child with great care, and they completely regarded him as their own son.
Scott turned up well. He grew up to be a wonderful man. He was the son which every parent wanted.
The family of three lived in peace.
Grandma Boris unexpectedly became pregnant and gave birth to a son, Sam Lewis, who was Boris‘ father.
The birth of Sam didn’t make Scott nervous at first, but Sam was outstanding and he inherited all good genes.
He was admitted to university at the age of fifteen, and was an intern in the company in the same year. His performance was outstanding and he was liked by some of the directors.
At that time, Scott was also working in the company under Zezili’s guidance. He did well at first, but compared with Sam, it seemed insignificant.
Gradually, whenever Sam made achievements, someone would mention Scott and look down upon him.
Later, it evolved into rumors that no wonder he was no better than Scott as he was not Zelili’s biological son.
For various reasons, the relationship between the two brothers got worse, but the outside world didn’t know exactly why..
After all, it was a matter of company’s secret.
All was known was that Sam sent Scott to manage a subsidiary far away from the headquarters, and later sent him abroad.
The power of the Lewis family then fell into Sam’s hands.
Sam was ambitious and professional, and his wife, Mary Lynn, Boris‘ mother, was also career–driven.
After Sam and Mary got married, the Lewis family’s business expanded.
After they sent the Boris who was a bad luck to her mother abroad, they were busy with their careers, and the Lewis family was the formidable in Japera City.
Everything changed five years ago.
Zezili was seriously ill, Sam died, Mary went mad, and Boris‘ plane crashed.
Scott went back to the country to seize power, then Zezili’s younger brother Chris came to power, and then Boris returned.
She didn’t know exactly how those people from the Lewis family seized power.
After all, it was a family matter.
Given the status and reputation of the Lewis family in Japera City back then, no media dared to mention the family matter without approval.
But Boris‘ eyes went blind after the plane crashed during the civil strife was something that Steven had slipped up and told her
not long ago.
The relationship between Steven and Boris was unbreakable, so the credibility of what he said was very high.
Boris‘ eyes were blinded in the plane crash during the civil strife, and because of this, he met the love of his life, Vivi.
As for that dream…
How could she dream of such a thing?
The scene in the dream, at first glance, was that she was kidnapped.
But who was Vivi? She was the daughter of the Scott family, and she lived on the small island until she was eighteen.
The island was full of mountains and minerals. She was surrounded only by her family members and maids.
How could she be kidnapped with Boris?
That was impossible.
In her memory, she was not kidnapped and even scolded.
Sure enough, dreams were the most ethereal, and illusory.
After Ziana cleared her mind and determined that it was just a nightmare, her mood immediately lightened up.
She slowly thought of Boris‘ eyes, which were cold and undeniably alluring. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
She still remembered that when she came to him to fulfill the marriage contract three years ago, she was deeply attracted at
the first sight of him.
His eyes seemed to be able to speak. When he stared at her, he seemed affectionate, and when he stopped looking at her, he
was also affectionate.
She was amazed back then.
How can there be a man who had such a pair of affectionate and flirtatious eyes? They didn’t seem strange, either.
After being married to him for three years, she didn’t even know that his eyes were injured, and she never noticed that his eyes
were uncomfortable.
Looking back now, she only remembered that he always seemed to be staring at her with those eyes.
His gaze was sometimes deep, sometimes passionate, and sometimes mixed with obscurity and silence that she couldn’t
understand.
But every time she noticed that he was looking at her, he will become indifferent and alienated in a short time.
She was deeply confused back then..
She didn’t know whether he loved her or not.
If he loved her, why didn’t he tell her?
And if he didn’t love her, why would he look at her with those passionate eyes when she was not paying attention to him.
During the three years of her marriage, she repeatedly fell in love with him and forced herself to stay away from him.
This was all because of his unpredictable attitude.
It was very difficult for a woman to give up on someone she loved, especially this kind of unpredictable man.
It was Boris who made the decision for her and forced her to divorce before she was in it too deep.
Otherwise, she would still be trapped in love and try to prove that he was in love with her.
But she didn’t expect that after divorce, she would still be influenced by him.
He must have noticed how she was passionate about him after the divorce.
If he was really in love with her. he would not let her go in the first place
So she should stop thinking about it.
Ziana secretly told herself that it was true that he jumped in the sea to save her and performed the rescue breathing for her.
But he didn’t do it out of love.
It was because he wanted to save her, to save his face, and to impress her, so he would choose her again.
She squeezed her fingers tightly. The pain woke her up.
“Ziana, don’t make the same mistakes again. Move on.” She said to herself.
