Chapter 216
“Uncle Zach, please throw it away,” Naomi requested.
“Throw it?” Uncle Zach widened his eyes. “But this is the memory between you and Colin…”
“No matter what kind of relationship we had, he still betrayed me without any hesitation.” Naomi smiled bitterly as she interrupted with a sarcastic look. The relationship between humans was too fragile. If you could not even trust your back with the person who had been thru hell with you, let alone those promises you made with them. “Miss Green…” Uncle Zach sighed while feeling pitiful. “Colin was just an individual case. Plus, he was forced to make a choice. But trust me, Mister Hough is absolutely different from Colin.” NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
There were sparkles appearing in Naomi’s eyes but they disappeared very quickly when Uncle Zach mentioned Jack. ‘I bet Stinky Daddy has lots of secrets that I don’t know!’
“Uncle Zach, enough talking of Colin. Do you have other matters?” Naomi asked. “Oh, the cops called just now. Although we had made a report on Clarissa, Lilian had bailed her out with her lawyer.” Uncle Zach finally remembered this important piece of information.” Miss Green, should we send over the important evidence so Clarissa would not be able to escape her punishment?” “No.” Naomi shook her head and said meaningfully. “I still need her to be around for other purposes.” She swayed her hand and looked at the checkerboard on the left side of her table. Coincidentally, her phone rang. It was from Scott. “Look. Here it comes.” Naomi curled up her lip sarcastically and accepted the call. “What’s up?” “Naomi! I’m ordering you to come home right now!” Scott yelled out coldly with a commanding tone. Naomi frowned unhappily, “You better think about how you should be talking to me.” Before Scott could answer, she hung up the phone immediately. A minute later, Scott was calling again. This time it was Lilian on the other side of the phone trying to suck up at Naomi. “Naomi, your dad was behaving badly. You know this is the way he is. Don’t take it personally. Let me apologize on behalf of him.” Naomi rolled her eyes and could not be bothered to put on act with Lilian. “Just spill it.” On the other side of the phone,
Lilian was so angry that her face started to turn red. However, she could only force herself to calm down and treated Naomi like a baby. “The thing is, we haven’t had a family meal for quite a while. Are you free this afternoon? Do you want to come back home to eat together?”
“I don’t have it in me to eat another meal in Green Mansion. It could probably be my last meal! “Naomi sneered sarcastically.
Lilian suddenly felt awkward and guilty as charged. She faked a laugh, “Hahaha…that’s not gonna happen. Primarily, we wanted to apologize to you. Do you think you could come over please?”
Deep down, anger flooded Lilian’s veins and Clarissa who was at the side was furious! After living in Green Mansion for many years, they had never positioned themselves so lowly after Naomi.
“Okay, I’ll be there in an hour.” Naomi could not bother to talk further and hung up the phone.
“Miss Green, I bet they are really out of ideas to be acting so humbly with you,” Uncle Zach vented out his anger.
Naomi picked up a piece from the checkerboard and slammed it into a new position on the checkerboard to jump on the opponent’s checker to remove it from the board. “They are running out of’moves. Uncle Zach, prepare the car for me.” “Should I arrange a few people to follow you?” Uncle Zach asked with worried. He knew Scott, Lilian, and Clarissa were not kind people and it was not the first time that they had tried to harm Naomi.
Naomi waved her hand to reject Uncle Zach’s offer. She had a sarcastic look on her face, “They said it was a family gathering. It’s inappropriate for you or others to join. Besides, if I die now, then who is going to settle their sh*t?”
Uncle Zach stood at the entrance of the factory. He saw the car Naomi was in driving off while feeling worried. After thinking for a while, he took out his phone and dialed Jack’s number. This number was
given to him by Jack when they were moving Langdon. Jack said to call him anytime when Naomi was in trouble.
The phone rang for a couple of seconds when Uncle Zach was waiting for Jack to pick up the call. Suddenly, a robotic woman’s voice answered the call, “I’m sorry. The number you have dialed is busy…” Jack rejected the call!
