Chapter 143
Nicola Clinton rarely returns home early, and Laura Kent and Elena Kent both felt very surprised.
Elena Kent had just finished bathing in the morning and couldn’t even blow dry her hair before she hurried out. She came to Nicola Clinton’s side in an Amelia Wytte-like manner and reached out to pick up the jacket he had taken off.
“Why did you come back so early today? The company is busy with things…”
Nicola Clinton conveniently avoided her movements, and the person slightly leaned aside half way, just widening the distance from her.
Elena Kent’s movements stopped, and her smile completely froze.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely solemn and awkward.
All the servants in the family buried their heads tightly, wishing they had just seen nothing.
Despite working for the Clinton family for so long, they can see that Elena Kent, the future of the Clinton family Amelia Wyttee, clearly does not match her current status with her name.
At least for the time being, Nicola Clinton doesn’t seem to have the intention of promoting him to the new Amelia Wyttee of the Clinton family.
However, anyway, she has Laura Kent behind her, and it’s all their servants who can’t afford to offend her.
“Ah… Nicola…” Elena Kent’s heart was filled with hatred, but she could only look up innocently and weakly, looking at Nicola Clinton with a timid expression. “Am I… did I do something wrong?”
Nicola Clinton frowned slightly and handed her coat to the servant beside her. After all, she said, “It’s nothing, just that you’re a guest of the Clinton family, so in the future, you won’t need to do
Guest
Elena Kent nearly crushed one of her silver teeth.
“She has been living in the Clinton family for so long, or has she been living as Nicola Clinton’s fiancee for so long, and in the end, in the eyes of Nicola Clinton, she is just the remaining guest?”?
But
“She took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, and swallowed back the sullen breath in her heart. ‘Yes, since you don’t like it, I won’t do it in the future.'”
After speaking, his eyes turned and he seemed to want to find some topic to pester Nicola Clinton to continue talking.
Before he could speak, Nicola Clinton had taken the lead in the direction of the restaurant and said, “Dinner is ready, let’s go eat.”
Elena Kent almost reached the end of the night with his arms bent and his hand suddenly empty again, her face almost numb with laughter.
As Nicola Clinton entered the dining room two or three seats behind, she suddenly turned her head and looked bleakly around a group of employees in the hall.
If anyone dared to show even a faint smile on their face, she would definitely make them eat their own fruit!
Fortunately, the servants at home buried their heads low, which did not further provoke Elena Kent’s displeasure.
The two people smoothly entered the restaurant, and Laura Kent was already sitting in the front seat.
“When the servant set the dishes and sat down at the table, Nicola Clinton suddenly casually said, ‘I remember Mom, you seem to have a lot of private property under your name?'”
Laura Kent was originally serving vegetables, but when she heard this, her hand shook and she couldn’t hold a single chopstick firmly, so she fell straight off.
The so-called speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.
Laura Kent didn’t know whether Nicola Clinton was speaking intentionally or unintentionally, but she really felt guilty when she heard it.
After all, Nicola Clinton didn’t ask anything, but instead asked about the property under her name.
You know – Amelia Wytte is normally in her West Mountain villa.
“What’s the matter with Mother? Is she uncomfortable?” Looking at her slightly trembling hand, Nicola Clinton gently raised her eyebrows.
Laura Kent’s body trembled even more violently.
“I don’t know why, but she always felt that when Nicola Clinton looked at herself, her eyes were full of meaning, and even what she said was hidden.”.
“I…”
Elena Kent pinched Laura Kent’s leg heavily on the side and said, “Auntie, what’s wrong with you? Didn’t you get well last time? It’s all my fault that I didn’t take care of you…”
Laura Kent reacted and avoided Nicola Clinton’s gaze with a fake smile. “How can you be blamed for this?”
He sighed again and said, “Speaking of it, I’m older myself, and my reflexes and everything else are not as good as before. Even my physical condition is not as good as before, alas.”
Nicola Clinton just looked at these two women.
After two people spoke, after a while, seeing that the man hadn’t spoken for a long time, she couldn’t help but feel a little hairy. Especially when Laura Kent was on the side of his head and looked at him with deep meaning, I suddenly felt even more guilty.
“I… Cough.” I coughed lightly for two times to hide my inner guilt. “Nicola, what did you say just now? I’m old here, and my ears are not good enough to hear clearly.”
“It’s nothing,” said Nicola Clinton as if she didn’t know. “I just suddenly remembered that there seems to be a lot of real estate under my mother’s name.”
“Yes, there are quite a few properties under my name, all of which were given to me by your father before I married the Clinton family. Why are you interested in these properties?” She tried to shift the topic in this way.
“Of course not.” Nicola Clinton smiled gently, “It’s just that I remember that with so many properties under my mother’s name, it should be easier to arrange for one or two people.”
Laura Kent clenched her chopsticks and said, “What do you mean by that?”
On the surface, he is fierce and insincere, but in reality, he is extremely insincere.
He always thinks Nicola Clinton knows what?
Otherwise, without mentioning anything, how could she suddenly mention the property under her name and say that she could let someone go? If it weren’t for suggesting Amelia Wytte’s whereabouts, she couldn’t remember what Nicola Clinton really meant.
“It’s not interesting, I just casually asked.” Nicola Clinton put down her chopsticks. “I’ve finished eating, mother, please enjoy yourself.”
After that, she got up and left the restaurant.
When he returned to his study, the old housekeeper followed him.
“Nicola Clinton motioned to him to close the door before ordering, ‘Arrange for people to keep an eye on them, and report to me immediately if there is any disturbance, regardless of who she has contacted or where she has gone.'”
“Yes.”
Nicola Clinton did say that on purpose.
He is too clear about the personalities of Laura Kent and Elena Kent. If it were true that the disappearance of Amelia Wytte, as his assistant said, was indeed related to them.
After feeling their suspicions, they will definitely act immediately.
The fact is exactly what Nicola Clinton expected.
As soon as he left the restaurant, Laura Kent couldn’t even eat any more. She placed her chopsticks on the table and asked urgently, “What did he mean by that? Why did he suddenly ask about my property? Did he know anything?”
