"Pull up the surveillance from the underground parking lot and check what the hit-and-run driver looks like today! Find the car with license plate T.74E60 by any means necessary!"
After hanging up the call, Arlo Seys’s eyes emitted a cold and chilling indifference.
Someone dared to hurt his wife, child, and sister. He’ll see who has the guts!!
-
Ariel Morris’s hand was in a cast and bandaged, as Arlo Seys drove the three of them home.
Nicole had twisted her ankle, and to make walking easier, Arlo Seys had Callan Walkers buy her a cane.
Nicole spent two quiet days at home, only troubled by Dominic Seys’s worsening health, which weighed heavily on her mind.
On the third day, despite not venturing out, Nicole realized that some shameless people will still seek you out and flaunt themselves right before you.
Nicole set aside the book she was reading and looked at Aunt Forest who had come to speak, "Did you say Olivia Summer came? What is she here for?"
Aunt Forest replied softly, "She said she came to visit the Young Madam. I told her the Young Madam wasn’t home and had gone to the hospital for a check-up, but she didn’t leave, saying she’s willing to wait for the Young Madam’s return."
Ha—- What a convenient excuse.
Nicole sneered internally and spoke mildly to Aunt Forest, "Then invite her in. If she wants to wait, let her wait. Serve her a pot of tea while she waits."
Olivia Summer once helped Jorge Saxton and Ariel’s mother, Cherry Morris. She claimed she was visiting Ariel, knowing full well she used Ariel as an excuse to see Nicole, yet Nicole had no justifiable reason to refuse and leave her outside.
As Olivia Summer entered, Nicole resumed her reading, completely unaffected, as if she hadn’t seen her.
"Miss Seys, you certainly know how to enjoy leisure, reading books at home," Andrea Greenwood greeted with a low laugh.
Seeing Nicole seated calmly and relaxed, reading at the Seys Family’s home, Andrea Greenwood felt a chilling coldness inside!
Failed once again! Nicole truly has a tough life!
Nicole felt uncomfortable hearing Andrea Greenwood’s voice, and without looking up, spoke to Aunt Forest standing nearby, "Aunt Forest, we’ve had quite a few flies in the house lately, buy some insect repellent to deal with them. They’re annoying."
Aunt Forest, who has worked as the Seys Family’s housekeeper for ten or twenty years, has exceptional insight and intelligence, protecting each family member deeply in her heart. Seeing her own Miss’s expression, she immediately understood the discord with the two women present and respectfully replied without a change in her demeanor, "Understood, Miss."
Andrea Greenwood was furious with the two’s play-acting but couldn’t tear into them in front of Olivia Summer, forcing her to hold back.
Nicole swept a sidelong glance at the frustrated Andrea Greenwood, her lips curled slightly.
Olivia Summer and Andrea Greenwood sat on the sofa opposite Nicole.
Olivia Summer glanced around, relieved to find no Seys members present, and spoke quietly to Nicole, who was indifferent and reluctant to engage with them, "Nicole, long time no see, have you been well?"
Nicole responded coldly and indifferently, "As long as I’m away from your Seal Family members, I’m overwhelmingly comfortable. Eating well, sleeping well, and no need to worry about crossing through death’s door."
Nicole’s sarcastic retort instantly soured Olivia Summer’s face.
She knew Nicole was ridiculing the incident where saffron nearly caused her to bleed to death.
Nicole couldn’t be bothered with their emotional reactions, holding her book and reading quietly.
Andrea Greenwood was very displeased with Nicole’s aloof appearance, sipping the tea in front of her, feeling troubled. Yet, as she touched the tea, a gleam flashed through her eyes.
Andrea Greenwood suddenly exclaimed jokingly, "Oh dear, recently I shouldn’t be drinking tea. My sleep has been poor during this time; drinking tea will further affect my sleep..."
