Chapter 901

It had to be said that this was a big thing, and it was something that they could not solve immediately.

After a long time, Gideon Leith finally said, "Alright. Let me think about it first, I'll give you an answer later."

It seemed that Gregory had not thought that Gideon would be able to make a decision right now.

Thus, he nodded and said, "I've arranged a room for the two of you upstairs, so you can go and rest after dinner. Let me know if you need anything."

After a pause, he added, "Although we had many grudges in the past, please think about all the times I’ve saved Nelly's life, and please consider it well this time."

Gideon glanced at him.

This glance contained too much of the two men’s secret rivalry.

In the end, they finally looked away. Gideon then said in a soft voice, "Alright."

The couple went upstairs together.

Needless to say, the dinner that evening was also at the chateau.

Gregory had ordered someone to cook a feast for them and also opened two bottles of fine wine.

At the dinner table, he also did his best as a host and carried jovial conversations with them.

However, Nell could still tell that he was very unhappy, or even, to put it another way, very depressed.

She did not know what the reason was. This time when he had called her and Gideon over to deal with the Chinese Association, she felt a little wary.

After all, such a thing was not that imminent, but his tone on the phone seemed to be very urgent when he had called earlier.

He had to be hiding something from her.

As soon as this thought popped into her mind, she could not stop thinking about it.

Therefore, after dinner, Nell declined his invitation to take a walk with the couple and turned around to go back to the room to rest with Gideon.

As soon as she entered the room, Nell said, "I don't feel right."

Gideon looked at her. His posture was rather leisurely and said, "What do you mean?"

Nell frowned and said in a flat voice, "He's hiding something from us."

Gideon immediately smiled at the words.

He reached out and lovingly gathered her slightly messy hair for her as he said, "Tell me."

Nell did not notice his eyes and frowned.

"I somehow feel that he's not being entirely honest with us. Think about it, the Chinese Association started the war between the Dragon Regiment and the Vermilion Bird Organization. It's been four years since this happened, and that time, although the Chinese Association had made many moves, he may not be so eager to get back at them right away.

“The two organizations have been fighting back and forth for so many years, there would always be a score to settle since they kept on fighting.

"But now, he's so eager to get a result. It's not like he wants to get rid of the Chinese Association right away, but there's some other reason."

Gideon listened and laughed lightly.

"You just missed one point."

"What?"

Nell was a bit confused.

Gideon said, "He mentioned that Vickie Thomas had been captured."

Nell looked at him and blinked her eyes.

She did not know Vickie Thomas. Back then, even when she was still in the Dragon Regiment, she had never seen or heard of this person around Gregory.

Therefore, when he mentioned it just now, she had only assumed that she was some random person.

After all, apart from mentioning her that one time, Gregory had never mentioned it after.

When she listened to Gideon's words, the two had some kind of untold relationship?

Gideon looked at her perplexed expression and laughed again.

“Vickie Thomas is a woman who grew up with Gregory. They’re childhood sweethearts."

Nell was shocked.

To say that she was not surprised would be a lie.

In the past, Nell only knew that Gregory was an inexplicable person with an unpredictable nature. His eyes were always cold, which made others stay away from him.

Only at that moment did she know that he had a childhood sweetheart.

She grunted and asked, "So, he's suddenly so eager to deal with the Chinese Association to save his childhood sweetheart?"

Gideon nodded, "Well, it should be."

Nell laughed at once.

"I can't tell that he’s actually such a romantic!"

At the same time, her heart relaxed all of a sudden.

In the past, she had always felt that Gregory's attitude towards her was a bit strange and there was a kind of warmth that she could not explain.

She did not know if she was overthinking it, but to say that he was interested in her, every time they were getting close, he would immediately avoid her.

However, as soon as she let her guard down, he would come over again.

That was why she was so repulsed by him.

Now, it seemed that she was indeed overthinking everything.

Since he had a childhood sweetheart, it was perfect.

When she considered this, Nell could not help but smile.

"Then how do you feel about this? Is it workable?"

Gideon was silent for a moment.

Immediately afterward, he said in a light voice, "As the saying goes, without the lips, the teeth would feel cold. We’re interdependent no matter what.

Although the Graham’s and the Leith’s have been somewhat at odds, in the end, we’re all members of the Four Great Clans. If the Chinese Association really annexed them step by step and got themselves in the country, they definitely wouldn't be able to set off any big waves in a short period since foreign forces back them. It would be easy for them to progress, and there's only a fear that they’ll become more powerful later. When that happens, our Leith family won't be able to deal with them."

Nell had this same impending feeling.

She then nodded and said, "So we’ll work with him?"

Gideon nodded.

"But I still feel that there's something strange about this."

"How so?"

Nell explained, "Think about it. When that group of people came after me, they wanted me dead. They even tampered with the plane, so what else won’t they do?

"They were determined to get me killed and take my life, but this time when faced with the woman Gregory loved, they just captured her. Don't you think it's strange?"

Gideon frowned.

Once Nell said this, it did feel a little odd.

However, no matter how weird it felt, it would be impossible to get an answer.

Gideon said in a deep voice, "We just need to pay attention later, but for now, I still feel like I can promise him. Even if it's just a try."

Nell nodded as well.

"Alright, then we'll go down and talk to him later."

"Mm."

After the two of them discussed it, they went downstairs together.

Spoiled by the President Chapter 900 Mutual Benefits Wrong Ride, Right Lover Chapter 1980 Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around!

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 When they went downstairs, they just happened to see Gregory playing with his dog on the lawn outside.

It was already nighttime.

The lights in the chateau were lit up and illuminated the surroundings brightly.

The two large dogs were running on the lawn tirelessly, picking up the Frisbee he had thrown to a distance over and over again.

Nell smiled and said, "You’re in a good mood! Did you raise them?"

When Gregory saw them, he stopped what he was doing, and with a command to the servant beside him, he gave the servant the Frisbee and let him take the dog away.
