Chapter 95: Shannon Villa.
Nick was annoyed, but his face didn’t show it, “I know.”
Elizabeth heard this, but couldn’t refute it because Mr. Andrews was not well.
She waited for Nick to walk out the living room door before she chased him out.
“Nick, are you really going to see that Daniel?”
Nick stopped and was now standing in the garden of the mansion, Edward was in the parlor and naturally could not hear their conversation.
His eyes were slightly lowered and he pursed his thin lips, his contour lines harboring a sharp chill.
“No.”
Elizabeth sighed in relief, her tone dismissive, “I also saw Daniel during the daytime. He was so well then, he didn’t look like he was sick. I think he just wanted to take advantage of your grandfather’s return, and purposely pretend to be pitiful. Don’t be fooled by them, their family just loves to use this kind of unorthodox tactics, if you really went to see them, you’d be falling into their traps.”
Taking advantage of a sickly Edward was just too much to bear.
“Mom, I know.”
With that, he raised his foot to leave, and Elizabeth added, “I’ve had your things sent to Shannon Villa. I’m worried that your grandfather will go over there to check on a whim. With his health condition, try not to upset him, if he really wants to go to Shannon Villa you’ll just go over there and make a show of it. Anyway Victoria sleeps in the guest bedroom, which is the furthest away from your master bedroom, and I’ve already warned her about that. I’m sure she wouldn’t dare pull any other tricks.”
Elizabeth’s tone was full of boredom when she mentioned the Blackwell family.
“Nick, that Victoria sure is good looking and must be used to seducing men.”
Nick didn’t like Victoria, but he hadn’t heard of Victoria getting too close to other men in the past few years, so he didn’t comment on Elizabeth’s words.
Elizabeth sighed again.
“I shouldn’t have separated you and Claire in the first place. Now that she has decided to come back, you guys get along, and you know that you’re all I’ve had since your big brother died, and I just want you to be okay.”
At the mention of the deceased brother, the coldness in Nick’s body instantly solidified, followed by a face that looked as if it were dripping ice on a snowy winter morning.
His jaw lifted slightly, his voice cold, “If my brother hadn’t died, you wouldn’t have paid so much attention to me. Mom, I’m not his replacement, and trying to get me to listen to you and be at your mercy is not going to happen.”
Elizabeth’s face suddenly turned as white as paper, her fingertips slowly curling up, about to nestle into her palm.
Her lips trembled and trembled before she spoke with red eyes.
“Nick, is that how you think about your mom? I did all this for your own good.”
Nick’s thin lips curled into a cold smile, “If it wasn’t for your goodness, he probably wouldn’t be in trouble.”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Elizabeth almost fainted outright, her breath shaking and shaking, unable to utter a complete sentence.
Not wanting to irritate her too much, Nick softened his tone.
“Go inside, I’m leaving.”
After saying that, he left the mansion with a big stride.
When he got back to the car, Declan was already waiting for him, glancing in the rearview mirror to see that he didn’t look too good and asked.
“Mr. Andrews, back to the hotel?”
Nick had been staying at the hotel lately, he lifted his fingertips and rubbed his brow, “Tomorrow you’ll take some gifts and visit Daniel in the hospital.”
“Old Mr. Andrews asked for it?”
“Hmm.”
Declan stopped talking and was just about to pull up to the hotel when he heard Nick say, “Go to Shannon Villa.”
Edward’s health was so poor that even at dinner he was talking about Victoria, just worried that he would make a sudden trip to Shannon Villa in the morning.
Since he was going to act, he naturally had to eliminate all possibility of being dismantled.
