Nathan’s main purpose in visiting Niarak was to investigate the King of Poison case, which involved national security. His own business was a secondary concern. He had limited contact with the various bigwigs in Niarak.
He dared not disturb Flynn too much and was unaware of their divorce.
Thus, it was perplexing for Nathan when Madeline called him for help.
On the phone, Madeline, hearing silence on the other end, became anxious and said, “Mr. Fletcher, I am at my wit’s end, please help me.”
Upon hearing this, Nathan chuckled and responded, “Miss Kaur, you are too formal. Our relationship isn’t one where you need to ask for help.”
“Your concerns are my concerns. I’ll make some calls for you.”
Although he was puzzled why Madeline would call him, he felt obliged to assist since she had asked.
After all, Flynn was his mentor, and Madeline his mentor’s wife; helping was simply the right thing to do.
Madeline, hearing Nathan agree, felt her heart pound excitedly and said shyly, “Thank you, Mr. Fletcher. Do you think I’m useless, bothering you again…”
“Ha ha… Miss Kaur, you are too polite.”
“How can you speak so dishearteningly? In my eyes, you are like the stars in the sky, deserving only respect.”
“It’s my honor to do this for you, don’t worry, I’ll make the call right away.”
Nathan then hung up the phone.
This relationship…
Your concerns are indeed my concerns.
In Mr. Fletcher’s eyes, I am like the stars, infinitely respected.
It’s an honor to serve you!
It’s confirmed!
Nathan loves me!
He even regards me as a goddess high above!
His words are full of respect.
Mr. Fletcher, such a prominent figure from Eahta, has turned into a humble admirer in front of me!
Isn’t this the expression of love?
Madeline, looking at Nathan’s number, almost jumped up in excitement.
Just as her heart fluttered with excitement, Matteo hurried over in a frenzy.
Following him were relatives from the Kaur family, each one tensely worried. Seeing that Madeline was not greatly harmed, they finally relaxed, sighing with relief.
After all, Madeline was the future of the Kaur family, destined to become Mrs. Fletcher; nothing could go wrong.
“Madeline, how is your mother?” Matteo asked anxiously.
He had just returned home from Jessica’s and found that both mother and daughter were not there. A phone call revealed they had gone to the hospital.
He quickly called Frank, and a group of them rushed to the hospital.
Everyone was terribly worried on the way, anxious like ants on a hot pan.
Frank was even scared to tears.
Matteo was puzzled by this.
Last year, when he had heart issues and stayed in the hospital for a long time, the Kaur family members didn’t visit him.
Now, they were acting as if they had lost a daughter, pale with fright.
It was utterly baffling.
Could it be that everyone now knew of Flynn’s capabilities and started to suck up to him?
“Dad, Grandpa, it’s nothing serious, just a simple stitching surgery. She’ll stay in the hospital for observation for a day and then eat liquid food at home for a few days,” Madeline reassured with a smile.
Frank held Madeline’s hand, asking with concern, “And you? Are you alright?”
A relative also stepped forward, “Madeline, you can’t have any problems. Wherever it hurts, we’ll check; you can’t have any complications, otherwise Nathan…”
“Shut up!” Frank’s face changed, and he quickly scolded, “Madeline is blessed with good fortune; how could she have complications? If you can’t speak properly, then get lost!”
After that, he quickly signaled to everyone with a look, and the relative understood Frank’s meaning.
Frightened, he shrank his neck and lowered his head.
Frank was warning him not to speak carelessly!
Matteo had just recovered from his heart disease. If he found out about the divorce, given his fondness for Flynn, it could trigger a relapse of his illness.
For now, they had to keep it a secret, waiting to reveal it when Nathan confessed his feelings to Madeline.
Matteo was sure to be angry initially, but seeing Nathan’s excellence, he was bound to accept it.
Once Matteo calmed down, he asked, “What about the Stewart family matter? Did you call Flynn?”
The room fell silent at the mention of Flynn’s name, disgust evident in everyone’s eyes.
Indeed, Matteo trusted Flynn unconditionally!
How foolish! Does he have a brain disease?
Your nephew is just a waste!
If it weren’t for his connection with Nathan, he wouldn’t even be worth dog shit!
Two idiots, utterly disgusting!
“I’ve already made the call,” Madeline sighed inwardly.
When Flynn was young, Matteo believed he would achieve greatness.
The Kaur family scoffed at this.
Yet Matteo remained steadfast in his belief.
However, reality harshly slapped Matteo’s face.
Flynn had gone to prison at eighteen and stayed there for ten years.
This turned Matteo into a joke among the Kaur family.
Perhaps because of that incident, Matteo harbored a sense of defiance.
He wanted Flynn’s success to prove the Kaur family wrong.
Now, Flynn had earned some respect from prominent families by being Nathan’s lackey.
This pleased Matteo, who indulged in it, unwilling to accept that Flynn was just a failure.
Perhaps he doubted this deep down but was reluctant to delve into it, his hopes for Flynn’s success being too great.
But dear father, mud will never stick to a wall!
Flynn is just an ordinary person, and once the business war is over, he will end up a lost dog, living in constant fear!
Madeline, not wanting to discuss this with her father, simply placated him with a response.
“Just made the call?” a younger relative muttered suspiciously, “But I passed by the Stewart family an hour ago, and Flynn was there.”
An hour ago?
Madeline frowned, then relaxed, a hint of disdain appearing in her eyes.
An hour ago, she and Paulina were treating wounds and undergoing a physical examination.
She hadn’t told anyone about the beating.
How did Flynn know?
He must have been secretly watching me, saw me getting bullied, and then went to trouble the Stewart family!
Ha-
Flynn, aren’t you the one who acts tough, pretending to be a bystander? You didn’t help with Marcel’s issue or the Break Alliance Pill matter, thinking I would fold and come begging to you?
Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. You became desperate.
Knowing I’m too proud to bow down, you turned into a lackey, solving problems for me, hoping to move me and then remarry.
What a joke!
If after our divorce, you weren’t so childish, keeping Marcel from targeting the Kaur family, we might still be friends.
But you embarrassed me publicly and still hoped for my forgiveness?
Dream on!
Even if you knelt before me, crying and apologizing, I wouldn’t forgive you, much less remarry!
Who would step in the same pile of dog shit twice?
Do I look like I have a problem?
Yet inside, Matteo was delighted, proudly saying, “Need I say more? It’s definitely Flynn silently protecting Madeline, hearing she was bullied, he immediately went to the Stewart family.”
“Madeline, see how good Flynn is to you, you shouldn’t snub him anymore, you know?”
At his words, the Kaur family rolled their eyes in disgust.
In their view, Flynn was just a sycophant, groveling and fawning pathetically.
Trying everything to make Madeline remarry him.
Such a disgraceful piece of trash, best treated like a dog, why shouldn’t she snub him?
As Matteo kept bringing up Flynn, everyone felt annoyed. Seeing that Madeline was alright, they found excuses to leave.
As for Paulina, who cared?
Better off dead, to spare her the future chance to command respect through her daughter in their presence!
