Chapter 211 âNo, I didnât, youâre looking at it wrong.â
After a while, Madeline just realized, her face blushed more, and hurriedly turned her head away from him.
âYes, you did. I just heard it.â
âNo, I didnât.â
âAlright, alright. you didnât.â
âI did!â Madeline continued to retort but then realized something was not quite right.
âWell, thatâs what my wife said by herself, after all, noted on thatâ Noah felt satisfied.
......â Ah, that was awkward.
The same feeling was also on Wayne, who was driving in the driverâs seat at the same time.
Looks like Mr. and Mrs. Quincyâs relationship is improving a lot, itâs just their IQ were not as their childrenâs... Oops, did he reveal some kind of secret?
Yeah, he should not be in the car, third wheeling their romantic moment!
âJust say I am worrying you, previously we had agreed that if you are going to avenge grandpa, you have to count me in!â
Madeline brought the topic back with a serious manner.
âFine, but I have a condition.â
âWhat is it?â
âYou canât do anything dangerous.â
*â*âT......
âIf you canât agree, Maddie, we can just stop the conversation here.â Noah insisted.
âDeal!â
âJoseph, that man is extremely dangerous, can you please stay away from him in the future?â
âWell... how did their conversation come back to this issue?
Seemed like there was another story between both of them.
Madelineâs curiosity instantly grew.
âOf course, I will stay away from him, but I have to know why right? Why donât you tell me, the grudge between you two?â
âYou want to know?â
âYes.â
âI canât tell you clearly for now, why donât I tell you a bedtime story at night?â Noah suddenly came over and hugged Madeline into his arms.
âHuh?â Madeline, who was suddenly swept into his arms, was a bit confused.
But she quickly reacted to the fact that Noah was teasing her.
âAfter all, this involves family secrets, so itâs especially suitable to discuss in bed.â
âNoah.â
âI am.â
âDonât be such a shameless guy.â
Wayne secretly agreed in his heart.
At this moment, how he wished he was deaf!
Why did he need to suffer with those words?
Brunoâs Apartment.
Bruno was just released from the police station, looking disordered.
His clothes were torn and dirty, and he lost more hair due to anxiety.
Kingsley helped him to sit on the sofa, and get him some water. However, there was no clean drinking water in this house anymore.
Bruce did not speak a word since he returned from the police station, He just blankly stared nowhere like a lifeless soul, which was worrying Kingsley.
*Sir, you canât continue to be like this, the Grant Family still depends on your support!â Gu Zhong looked at Bruce and couldnât help but encourage him.
âItâs over, itâs all over, the Grant Family is over now,â Bruce spoke without any expression, like a machine without any feelings.
âMaster, it is not yet the end, there is still some time, why donât we think of another way?â
âWhat else can we do? The start-up capital for the Shallow Bay Development, the initial stage alone will cost at least five hundred million, where am I going to get such an amount?â
Bruce leaned back on the sofa in despair, feeling that the end of the world was coming soon.
âKingsley, just leave me alone, find another master to serve.â
He knew clearly that Kingsleyâs loyalty was more reliable than his wife and children. Hence, he did not want to drag Kingsley with him.
The issue of the Grant Family had nothing to do with him.
As a professional butler, he could get a better job somewhere else.
This was Bruceâs real thought at this moment, perhaps he did not realize that he was still a kind-hearted person deep in his heart.
âSir, Iâm not leaving. Iâve been with you through thick and thin for so many years, we can definitely think of a way!â As soon as Kingsley heard that Bruce asked him to leave, he immediately knelt in front of him with tears.
He grew up homeless, and it was the Grant family that took him in.
He had served Bruce since he was a child, and his whole life was to pay back Bruce.
Thatâs why heâs not going anywhere!
He must help Bruce!
âActually, there is another way, although itâs risky, but you can get a large amount of money quickly.â Kingsley nervously provided Bruce with his ideas.
âWhatâs that?â Bruce remained expressionless.
He knew that Kingsley was comforting him, so he didnât have any hope at all!
âI bought accident insurance for myself previously, the coverage is one hundred million. As the beneficiary, you will definitely get the money as long as I died in an accident.â.
Kingsley spoke with grief and anger, this was the last plan he prepared for Bruce after the incident happened.
He had long made up his mind that if Bruce was pushed to his edge one day, he would use his life to help Bruce.
âNo way! Kingsley. No matter how desperate we are, you absolutely canât do anything foolish!â Bruce warned Kingsley. He seemed to be upset by Kingsleyâs words and immediately sat up straight.
Itâs not that he didnât hesitate when he heard that there was such a huge amount of compensation. But he couldnât do it.
âSir, this is the fastest way for now. Anyway, if it wasnât for the Grant family back then, this life of mine wouldnât have lived until now, itâs enough for me to live for these years!â
âKingsley, letâs think of another way, another way! If you die, I donât want to be left alone!â Bruceâs hand was trembling, and he grabbed Kingsleyâs hands. His mind was racing.
He only had one thought right now, that he must think of a way, and must not allow Kingsley to die.
âSir!â Kingsley was relieved that Bruce seemed to be motivated.
âKingsley, rent a house on the outskirts, then sell both this apartment and the burnt villa. Yes, sell them all, at least we need to get some money first, donât you think so?â
Bruce thought about it and made a decision.
He could hardly afford food now, but this house could get a good price.
Although that villa was burned down, the location was good, someone will take it if the price was reasonable.
*Sir, this is the only residence you own now, do you really want to sell it?â Kingsley was shocked.
âSell it, sell it all. Plus, please help me to prepare an auction, we are not going to continue the Shallow Bay Development!â
