Chapter 110

Connor and Liliana looked at Renee in shock. “Why is she talking nonsense with such a serious look?”

they wondered.

That piece of emerald belonged to Caroline.

But realization soon dawned on them. Even though Shirley had been exposed, they still had Renee.

They couldn’t bear the thought of letting Caroline have her way.

“We’ll be frank, Mr. Faraday. The emerald is not Shelley’s but Renee’s.”

“We didn’t educate Shelley well. She stole Rence’s emerald and tried to marry into the Faraday family.

She even threatened us with her life. We had no choice.”

Nathan glanced at the two of them, then at Rence before he asked slowly, “Is the emerald really yours?”

The man’s gaze was sharp and cold, like an X–ray that could see through people. Rence. looked at him and nodded. “Yes.”

“Are you King?”

Rence was smart. She smiled and said mysteriously, “I’m sorry, Mr. Faraday. That is my personal business, and I’m not obligated to tell you.”

Nathan was silent for a while. “Take Shirley back.”

“Okay, thank you, Mr. Faraday. But when will you marry Renee? Both our families were engaged. Since your marriage with Shelley is void, Renee is now Mrs. Faraday,” Connor said.

Renee kept her gaze on the man, a passionate look visible in her eyes.

But Nathan said nothing. The indifferent look on his face made people wonder what he was thinking.

“Send them off, Alfred.

Hearing that, Alfred immediately said, “This way, please.”

Shirley was released. She was delirious after being tortured for days.

Besides, she had undergone/plastic surgery. Having been treated so roughly in the few days, her face was ruined, and she looked utterly hideous.

past Only then did Connor understand why Nathan had let her go so easily. He had already tortured her enough, and she was rendered useless now.

“Go away! Don’t touch me. I’m Mrs. Faraday!” Shirley shouted.

Liliana’s heart broke as she held Shirley in her arms. “Shelley, it’s your mother. Don’t be afraid.”

Renee was expressionless. She couldn’t understand why Shirley was born and felt that having an excellent daughter like her was all the Sullivan family needed.

Nonetheless, she comforted gently, “Mom, I know many famous doctors abroad. I’ll get Shelley treated.”

Connor sighed angrily. “Mr. Faraday’s reputation is fully justified. Those who offended him will never end up well. Our plan has backfired this time. Renee, you must win him.

over.

“I understand, Dad. Mr. Faraday didn’t say he’d marry me, but he also didn’t say that he wouldn’t marry me either, didn’t he?” Renee said with a smile.

Meanwhile, in Penningcoll Residence, Yuliana appeared right in front of Nathan and blocked his way while he was leaving the study. “Uncle Nathan, are you really going to marry Renee?”

Nathan frowned. “Who said you could eavesdrop on our conversation?”

“Uncle Nathan, I don’t want you to marry anyone else. I want Carol to be my aunt–in- law!”

Speaking of Caroline, Nathan glanced at the time. “It’s already nine o’clock, but she’s still not home.

What is she up to?”

Right then, the door of the mansion opened. Caroline was back.

“Carol!” Yuliana immediately ran over and said, “Something bad has happened!”

“What’s wrong?” Caroline asked.

“Uncle Nathan is going to marry Renee!”

Nathan stared at her, wanting to see if there was any change in her expression.
