Chapter 876
Blake was livid, “You dare to argue with me?”
Cedric quieted down, fearing he might really piss grandpa off.
The Laurence family began to bicker, apparently demanding an explanation from Bernard.
Bernard, seated on the sofa, was losing his patience with the noisy crowd, “What my wife said is all
true. The Pine family’s issue has nothing to do with her. If you don’t believe it, check it out yourself. If
you still want to hold grudges against her, don’t blame me for not showing mercy”
In short, even if the investigation results contradicted with what Eleanor said, he would firmly protect
Eleanor. The Laurences seemed to have seen through his mind. But as the family patriarch, was it
really a good thing to act like this for a woman?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtArlene anticipated that this woman would eventually exploit Bernard’s vulnerability Once a person in
power revealed their weakness, they were bound to be taken advantage of. She eagerly awaited the
day when he would regret his actions
Unfazed by their thoughts. Bernard confidently raised his hand and signaled to his bodyguards. “Escort
them out,” he commanded.
The Laurence family members who had come seeking shares couldn’t simply leave without a response
“Blake, say something! We can’t allow this woman from the Pine family to dismiss the Laurences‘
grudge as if it has no relevance to her,” one of them implored.
The wife of Blake’s brother, Beck squinted her weary eyes, fixing her gaze on Eleanor Blake,
regardless of the circumstances, she is a member of the Pine family. You must handle her just as you
did before. Otherwise, I won’t keep your secret any longer!”
Heaning this, the Laurences started to ask, “What secret, Beck?”
Becl didn’t respond, her silent gaze shifted to Blake.
Blake felt a little panicked inside, but kept cool on the surface, “Don’t ask about thing you shouldn’t
know!”
They respected Blake and kept silent. Only Arlene looked thoughtful at her grandpa
After Blake calmed everyone down, he promised the lady. “Don’t worry, I’ll handle this You take the
others back first.”
Having received Blake’s promise, Beck leaned on the sofa, suppressing her physical weakness, and
left with the Laurences
As they walked away, they could still be heard asking, “Is this really it?”
Beck stopped and turned back to look at Blake in the living room, “He will handle it. Let’s just wait…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter they left, Blake straightened up and told Bernard and Eleanor seriously. “You two must divorce!”
Cedric was the first to react, “Why, grandpa? It’s been so long, don’t ruin their marriage over this!”
Blake glanced at Arlene sitting next to him, “You should leave too.”
Arlene sensed that grandpa was about to reveal a secret but didn’t want her to know. Clearly, he didn’t
trust her. She was a bit pissed off, grabbed her bag and prepared to leave, “You’re always like this, only
caring about your grandson and ignoring me, your granddaughter.”
For the first time, Blake felt that having too many descendants was not necessarily a good thing, as it
was impossible to satisfy everyone. “It’s in your best interest
not to know about this.”
Arlene didn’t quite believe him, but Blake was her biggest support in the Laurence family. Even if she
didn’t believe him, she had to listen, “Fine, I’ll leave then…”
After Arlene left, Blake became extremely serious, “Even if there’s no feud, you can’t be with her…”
Bernard rested his forehead in one hand, clearly annoyed, “Just spit it out, stop talking in riddles.”
