Chapter 1042
Spoiled by the President
âYes, but it canât be a real ice house. I mean someplace as cold as an ice house, like a chilly cellar.â
Sean thought for a moment and shook his head.
âYouâve stumped me. I do have a cellar here, but it isnât chilly. You must understand that weâre in a desert. Itâs impossible to find a cool place in a desert.â
At once, Spencer frowned when he heard Seanâs reply.
âWhat should we do now? Without a proper environment, this thing wonât grow successfully.â
Gideon said in a deep voice, âDoes it have to be planted in that sort of place?â
âYes.â
Gideon pondered and suggested, âIn that case, why donât we change the place? Back in my home country, thereâs a villa with very similar geographical conditions.â
âHome country?â
Spencerâs expression altered suddenly and he shook his head.
âNo, Iâm not going there.â
Gideon was puzzled.
Nell asked, âWhy not?â
Spencer looked upset. Sean seemed to recall something and offered a suggestion. âGoing back to your home country is out of the question. How about this? You take this thing with you. Once youâre done with your research, you bring it back to us.â
Spencerâs eyes lit up.
âThatâs possible.â
At the next second, however, he paused and turned to regard Nell and Gideon.
âBut do you trust me with it? Itâs widely known that this thing is a treasure and priceless. I donât know how you obtained it, but I dare say that hardly any of such things remain in this world. If I take it with me and donât bring it back, youâll suffer a great loss.â
Nell gave it a thought and smiled. âNo worries, since weâve decided to seek your help, we must trust you, Mr. Nolan.â
Spencer beamed with delight.
âOk, itâs settled, then. Donât worry, Iâll take this matter seriously and update you whenever thereâs news.â
âAlright.â
A decision had been made and there was nothing else to say.
Spencer was an efficient man. Once he gave his word, he decided to do it without hesitation.
Therefore, instead of staying overnight, he sent someone over to collect the plant. After that, he boarded the night flight to the city he resided in.
That same night, Nell called Vickie and told her about this incident.
Vickie did not say much, but she agreed with Nellâs decision.
They were not fussy people. Although Vickieâs life was at stake, and this issue had to be taken seriously, they needed to trust someone else when seeking his assistance.
Furthermore, it was not a huge deal for Spencer to take the Money Bead with him.
Vickie and Gregory had already acquired a piece of the Arcane Jade. Soon, they will get the second piece.
According to her, the situation in Southern Yunnan turned out better than expected. They had already agreed with the other party and spent a great sum of money to buy the piece of jade. The transaction could be done at night.
To Gregory and Vickie, whatever that could be solved with money was not a challenge.
Nell listened and nodded her head. She felt relieved.
Following that, she talked to Vickie about Jeff Flinders.
Until today, Nell had no idea why Jeff approached them on purpose.
She did not know his intention.
Vickie was also shocked after listening to her.
Still, she was not familiar with Jeff, so she could not wrap her head around his reason for visiting this place.
Nell sighed.
âOk.â
After hanging up, Nell told Gideon about this matter.
Gideonâs reaction was the same as Vickieâs. After all, every problem had a solution. They just had to take it one step at a time.
She did not brood any longer.
That night, she went to sleep peacefully.
The next morning, it finally stopped snowing.
It had been snowing for a whole day. Although the snow was not heavy, the whole city was still shrouded in white as a result.
It was very cold outside, so Nell and her family decided against going out. They sat in the living room and huddled around the fireplace as they chit-
chatted.
Somehow, their conversation turned towards the subject of Lizzyâs birth.
After spending a few days with Lizzy, Cathy developed a fondness for this obedient child.
She was also saddened by the fact that she did not have a biological mother.
Throughout the time spent with Nellâs family, Cathy could also tell that Gideon treated Nell well.
Thus, she was not so particular about Gideonâs past now.
It was proven that Gideon was a good man to Nell, so Cathy had nothing else to say.
As for Lizzyâs biological mother, there was a high likelihood that she would never show up since she never appeared all this while.
Assuming she did show up, that would not affect Nellâs relationship with Gideon.
Nell relaxed when she found out her mother thought this way.
In fact, she was quite open-minded about the whole thing and did not feel offended.
Lizzy was her child and she loved her very much. She did not care if they were not related by blood.
They chatted for a little longer. Nell was pregnant and sleepy, so she went to her room for a nap.
When she woke up, she received a phone call.
It was from the Old Madam in Country F.
After having fun with the Griffins, the Old Madam and the Old Master were planning to come home.
They made a phone call to inform Nell.
With a chuckle, Nell reminded the Old Madam to be careful when traveling home.
Nell laughed and told her about her current condition to prevent the Old Madam from getting worried.
The Old Madam felt better after learning that Nell was cared for properly and that she had proper meals and rest.
Still, she reminded Nell that she should not go outside, in case she met with any accidents.
Nell did not overthink it and agreed. After that, the call ended.

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 After hanging up, Gideon happened to enter the room. He noticed the phone in her hand and asked, âWho called you?â
Nell answered, âGrandma. She and Grandpa are coming home.â
âSo soon?â
Gideon was a bit surprised, as the Old Madam had not seen Old Madam Griffin in a while. They finally had an opportunity to get together.
