Chapter 1141
Yorrick kept silent.
Nolan chuckled and said, “I have to say you’re good at pretending. For the Persian Gulf project, why don’t you-*
“You’re so annoying.” Yorrick interrupted as he turned around to look at Nolan. His face was drenched cold as he
frowned annoyingly.
Nolan walked into the ward and sat down on a chair. “I didn’t expect that the womanizer Mr. Hathaway would end
up like this for a woman.”
Yorrick leaned against the window. His heart was so cold that he couldn’t feel the coldness seeping into him from
the cold rain.” Ridiculous, isn’t it? I also find it ridiculous.”
He said, “It’s ridiculous that I would let a woman into my heart after only knowing her for three months, right? She
isn’t very pretty either. Although I have to admit that she has a nice body shape, she has a nasty personality. She
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmay look smart on the surface, but she’s just a naive and innocent girl deep down.” While playing with his watch,
Nolan lifted his head to look at Yorrick but didn’t say anything.
He set his gaze at the world outside the window, and his eyes were dull. “I care for her because she’s as innocent
as Sharon. Initially, I was just teasing her,”
He came to an abrupt stop before he could finish his sentence.
Yorrick took a deep breath and tapped on the windowsill in a regular tempo. Water droplets dripped from the
corners of his eyes, but no one could tell whether they were raindrops or tears. Nolan slowly rose to his feet and
asked.” The daughter of the Nixes is dead. Do you know about that?”
Yorrick was stunned. He lowered his head without saying anything, his expression calm and cold.
Meanwhile…
The Nixes had come to the St. Donnor Estate to confront the Hathaways. The man standing in the front of the
group was Mandy’s father. His face was stern as he looked at Madam Hathaway, who was sipping on her tea. “What
do you mean by this?”
Holding her teacup, Madam Hathaway smiled at him and replied, “I’m sure I’ve made myself pretty clear. Ms. Nix’s
death has nothing to do with Yorrick. What’s more, what does what Ms. Nix has done or who she has offended have
anything to do with the Hathaways?”
Mr. Nix smacked the table and snarled, “Yes, Mandy harmed Yorrick’s woman, but who knows whether Yorrick has
or hasn’t taken revenge on Mandy for that woman!”
Madam Hathaway scoffed coldly. Although she was old, she was still as confident and calm as she used to be when
she was young. “Mr. Nix, I’m sure you yourself know very well how many enemies your Nix family made when you
started to work with the underworld.”
Master Nix set his jaw tightly and frowned.
Madam Hathaway slammed her teacup on the table and replied confidently, “If
Yorrick wanted to avenge that woman, he would’ve done it himself a long time ago. Yorrick was injured because of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthis incident as well. If those people were his men, would they hurt their own master? What would they get for
doing that?”
Mr. Nix clenched his fists tightly.
Madam Hathaway glared at Master Nix and said sternly, “Mr. Nix, if you want to be unreasonable, then the
Hathaways won’t be reasonable to you either. The choice is yours, Mr. Nix. You can choose to end this in a peaceful
way or a rough way.”
Mr. Nix harrumphed and went away with his men.
Holding Xyla’s luggage, Maisie came to a farm in the suburbs with a cab. The air was filled with the scent of mud
after rain. There were many chained cows on the grassland, and the endless aspen trees and grass made this place
look like a paradise.
At that moment, a middle-aged man in a denim jacket with a bearded cheek walked out of the warehouse with a
cigarette in his mouth and grains in his hands.
Maisie approached him with the luggage and asked, “Hi, I’m sorry, but may I know if the girl you saved here?”
The bearded man put the grains down and took a drag from his cigarette. He turned his head around to study
Maisie and asked expressionlessly. “You’re her friend?”
