Nellie went straight to the hotel, the room butler was already waiting at the door of the room, and when he saw her, he respectfully came forward, “Miss James.”
“All set?”
“Yes, it’s all ready as you requested.” The butler said respectfully.
Nellie nodded, “Many thanks.”
“You’re welcome, can we help you?”
The butler looked at Nellie’s expensive outfit and the fact that she had booked the presidential suite, he was worried that she won’t be able to cook at all.
Nellie shook her head, “No, I think I can do it.”
Although she rarely cooked before, she had been in the kitchen before, and even if she was not a good cook, she was not a complete novice.
The butler nodded, “If you need anything, just let me know.”
“Okay.”
Nellie nodded and entered the house.
After closing the door, she found her way straight to the kitchen.
Although she only wanted to make a porridge, the hotel had prepared a lot of fresh ingredients for her and the fridge was stuffed to the brim.
Nellie cleaned the pots and pans and cutlery first, she was mysophobia, even though they were all brand new, she was still unsure.
As she had just put the rice and water in the pot, her phone rang. She picked it up though her hands still had water on it.
“Hello.”
“It’s me.” Hazel’s voice came from the other side of the phone.
Nellie’s face sank, she did not want to talk to Hazel.
Hazel said, “I have left the country alone, you will return those things to me, right?”
She went abroad, really did leave Catherine behind.
This did not surprise Nellie at all, after all, Nellie knew very well what Hazel’s nature was like.
It was no surprise at all that she did that.
Laughing coldly, she said, “I only promised that I wouldn’t make you pay for your legal responsibilities, when did I say I would give those back to you?”
“You…”
“Besides, are those things yours?”
At this moment, even through the airwaves, Nellie could feel the ups and downs of Hazel’s emotions.
Yes, those things were never theirs, it was George who was shameless enough to leave everything to them.
Using her mother’s property to make a will? In what position?
Hazel said in a tight tone, “Dad has passed away, you are disrespecting him like this.”
“I know, but he can’t make a will that’s valid because my mother’s will was made first.”
Her mother left everything to her back then.
So after that, no matter how much money George earned with that money, it could only belong to Nellie alone.
Before she didn’t care.
But now, no one should try to get a half of what belongs to her mother.
“He’s just as greedy as you are. If you hadn’t thought of hogging everything my mother had back then, there would still be something he could leave to you and your mother today.”
Back then George ignored the will made by her mother and kept everything under wraps.
He thought that some truths could really be hidden? Shame on him.
Hazel didn’t expect things to go this far, but she was out of options.
“And what price will you, then, make my mother pay?”
It was natural that she should pay for what she had done over the years.
“That depends on what the law is going to make her pay.” Nellie thought, not answering directly.
Hazel knew that she would not have an answer, and there was some painful blockage in her heart.
After all, that was her mother.
But Nellie was so aggressive that she had no way to fight back.
“You want to come back to keep her company?” Seeing that Hazel didn’t say anything, Nellie mocked out.
Hazel shut up instantly.
Let her go back to Shirling to be with Catherine? She can’t do that.
How could she, who had lived a privileged life for long, bear it? She could not bear this revenge now.
Nellie did not want to continue talking to her and hung up the phone.
It was true that Hazel would leave alone, as she had expected, but she still did not feel comfortable with Catherine was now alone.
After all these years of bad deeds, it would be a real mercy for Catherine if she really still paid the legal price.
…
Troy inquired about Nellie’s whereabouts and when Andre knew she was at a nearby hotel, he frowned.
“What’s she doing in a hotel?”
She was with Barney all last night. He thought she was so in love with Barney, but now she is…
Troy’s face was very grave.
Andre saw that he did not speak and frowned, “What is going on?”
Troy, “Sidney went to that hotel too.”
Andre’s face was instantly gloomy.
The most fundamental conflict with Nellie all these years started with Sidney.
Even though it had been found out clearly that there was another reason for Nellie’s departure back then, but now when he heard the name Sidney, he still can’t help but associate the two people.
“Find out her room number.”
“Okay.”
Troy nodded his head.
…
Nellie watched the porridge in the pot thicken little by little, revealing a satisfied smile.
In the past, she used to boil porridge and it always tended to fail, either with too little or too much water, and the cooking came out as a failure.
This, today, was clearly the first success.
The sound of the doorbell rang, Nellie turned off the fire first and turned to open the door.
She thought it was the hotel butler, her face changed when she pulled the door open, “Why you are here?”
“What? You didn’t contact me even when you came to Yupto? What a heartless woman.”
Nellie subconsciously had to close the door.
However, the man’s strong arm spread out, full of reserve, but invisibly gangly.
Nellie’s breathing heaved, “What do you want?”
Sidney forced his way in.
Nellie once again sank her face, “What are you doing?”
Sidney acted as if he hadn’t heard her words and walked straight to the sofa and sat down, that leisurely look made Nellie’s brain hurt with anger.
He looked at her seriously.
Nellie was nervous at his stare. The hand that was gripping the door handle was tightening.
Sidney lit a cigarette, saw her standing in the doorway all the time and raised his eyebrows, “What, afraid I’ll eat you?”
Nellie was so angry that she slammed the door.
She came and sat down opposite Sidney, “What’s the matter? Just say it. I am busy.”
“Busy with what?”
Nellie, “What does it have to do with you?”
She looked at the man in front of her with eyes full of anger. God really favoured him, even after all these years, he had still changed in the slightest.
Sidney saw that she was always angry and put on a smile, “Still blaming me?”
Nellie didn’t say a word.
If he hadn’t forcibly taken her away and trapped her for six months back then, there wouldn’t have been all those things between her and Andre later on.
