Chapter 466 Dissatisfied Towards Him
“Don’t worry. No one knows but me,” Sheryl said as she yawned. ” I was worried when I noticed Freddie was gone during the night. I asked the driver about it and he said he brought him here. I thought someone must have asked the driver to do that so I called Uncle Peter. Once I knew you were from Woblar, I started to suspect you were a twin.”
“How did you…” Gavyn still didn’t believe her.
“It’s normal that you don’t believe me. Let me explain. I heard from my father that Nathan saved someone when he was around 10. That person had a weak body so he wasn’t suitable to practice martial arts at all. But the next year, this man went to Woblar and registered under the name Clarkson. Isn’t that weird? A man who was heavily injured from drowning and was on the verge of death was able to join Woblar in just six months.”
“What kind of place is Woblar? It was a heaven for mercenaries. There are countless of powerful men inside. How many of them were in their own element and how many of them died a gruesome death? Uncle Gavyn, tell me how did that man survive? How did he survive 100% of all his missions? Is he that gifted? If that was the case, what was he doing before?” Sheryl smiled slyly like a fox.
Gavyn fell silent.
Sheryl did not intend to let this go. She continued, “So I guessed that was either your brother or your twin. You were saved by Nathan. Your twin entered Woblar and obtained the perfect record so you can make a name for yourself by Nathan’s side. Nathan also used this time to make some changes to your body.”
“What you said is reasonable, but why would sir do this? This takes a lot of time and there’s no assurance my brother could do this. Besides, I am loyal to sir, but won’t he suspect that one day my brother and I…”
“But what if the person who drowned was actually Nathan?” Sheryl tilted her head.
Gavyn’s eyes darkened.
“Ah, did I say something wrong?” Sheryl stood up and said, “I’m going in to see Uncle Nathan.”
“Gavyn, what is going on?” Freddie was at a loss. “Is Sheryl telling the truth? Are you really my father’s brother?”
“No, my brother was the one at Woblar. At that time, it was I who saved sir and not he who saved me.” Gavyn thought of the past with a sharp pain in his heart. “I promised sir, no matter what, we would train together so our muscles would not weaken and not let the condition of our lungs worsen. That was why he was so angry. Because to him, our lives are closely connected to each other.”
Freddie was immediately at a loss for words. “So Sheryl guessed everything correctly?”
“If this little girl was really guessing, then sir, you have to keep her by your side even if you don’t like her.”
“I love her. I will respect her.” Freddie answered very seriously. He stared at Gavyn and said, “Uncle, I can listen to you and father in everything but anything that has to do with Sheryl, I have to listen to my brain.”
Gavyn did not expect such an answer. He smiled with gratification and said, “Good, good, I finally see a trace of your soul in you. It’s a good thing.”
Freddie did not reply. He was lost in thought as he looked in Sheryl’s direction.
He was determined to win her heart.
Squeak, squeak-
Sheryl pushed open the door and closed it again. She said in a childish voice, “Uncle Nathan, did you hear my reasoning just now?”
“Hmm.” The man replied lazily.
“Are you serious about what you said before?”
“Sheryl, do you hate Freddie so much?” Nathan turned around and looked at her with his head propped up in one hand.
Sheryl shook her head and said, “I don’t hate season Freddie. I want you to take him away from me for his own good. He would be pressured to death if he stays by my side. I want a cute boyfriend not a follower.”
“Did your father teach you this?”
“My dad won’t teach me this. I learnt it from watching TV myself.” Sheryl said as she moved closer, “Uncle Nono, actually I like people like you. Although you’re not very smart, you have enough wisdom.”
Nathan didn’t know what to say
Should he thank her for praising him?
Nathan scratched his eyebrows with his other hand. “If you like me, shouldn’t you like Freddie too?”
“No, if both you and I remain by his side, he would never become you. Don’t you think you’re too protective over him? Based on my reasoning just now, you used to be chased down a lot when you were small, right?”
“So?”
“Freddie didn’t. He has never faced death.”
“Isn’t it good to be a smart good-for-nothing?” Nathan asked.
Sheryl was ready to protest but she thought of this sentence again. She shrugged her shoulders and said, “I have no objections if Freddie’s own father says so. I can get a lot of benefits and money from marrying Freddie, so I am very willing to do so.”
“You are just as snobbish as Shane.”
“I’m just accepting circumstances that are beneficial to me.”
Nathan shook his head helplessly.
He was afraid that his son would be played in the hands of Sheryl.
…
The next day.
Sheryl ran into the ward and stayed close to Charlotte and Shane.
Charlotte felt guilty as she looked at Sheryl in Shane’s arms. She touched the back of her head and asked, “How’s your homework lately? Can you keep up?”
“My homework would be fine with Olive here. I also bought a lot of extracurricular books. Recently, I’ve been very interested in calculus.”
“Uh…” Charlotte instantly choked on her words.
“Your mother is a bad student,” Shane said with his pale lips. He looked particularly weak and he was thinner than before. His skin was almost as white as snow.
Charlotte couldn’t bear to argue with him like this. She could only reply, “Sure, sure. Your dad is right. Don’t mention calculus, I’m not even good at addition and subtraction.”
“Then Mommy, you’re too stupid. Let daddy teach you. I won’t bother you anymore. I’m going to see Freddie.”
Sheryl left after she finished speaking.
Charlotte was stunned for a few seconds, then she looked at Shane suspiciously, “Is your daughter going out with Freddie?”
“Isn’t that good?”
“How old is she?”
“They would have more time to learn about each other.”
“You’re going to settle the engagement just like that?” Charlotte smirked.
“Nathan told me that the reason he didn’t object Freddie for bringing Irena back to the country is because of Sheryl. If Sheryl was a boy, they would become business partners. If she was a girl, they would marry. He blindly worships me.”
Charlotte reached out her hand and pinched his nose, “He worships you blindly? Are you not embarrassed to say so? Isn’t Nathan better than you?”
“It’s true that he is better than me, but he is no match for me,” Shane said as he propped himself up. “What’s wrong? Are you so dissatisfied with me? Are you going to pick Nathan between me and him?”
“Who said that I’m going to pick him? Besides, how am I dissatisfied with you?” Charlotte helped him adjust his bed and supported him up. “I’m taking care of you so thoughtfully and I still have to be told off by you? It’s not easy for me, okay?”
“You’re not dissatisfied with me at all?” The man leaned forward slightly as he spoke. He hooked his fingers around her chin.
He couldn’t be thinking about…
A cold glint flashed across Charlotte’s eyes as she directly pushed his hand away.
It was an insignificant move…NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
A gash of blood appeared on the back of Shane’s hand.
She was stunned.
