Chapter 172 Protected by the Kings
As Nova walked close, she heard Mabel’s words. She coughed and remained silent.
Mabel said smilingly, “Henry, grandma now ask you to do one thing. I don’t want your relation to go sour
after your divorce. I’ll tell you; Nova is now my granddaughter. My best granddaughter! So, you gotta be
nice to her!
You have to pick dozens suits of outfits for Nova and have them made and delivered!”
Henry frowned at Mabel’s words. “Grandma.”
He sounded unwilling.
Mabel darkened her face. Before she uttered a word, Nova hurriedly said, “Grandma, I have plenty of
clothes.
Don’t need to bother Henry.”
Mabel then said to Nova gently, “Good girl. Grandma know that you got enough clothes. But what he
bought
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou meant more than what you’ve owned!”
Then, she turned to Henry and said fiercely, “I don’t care! You will have to carefully select fifty outfits for
this
season. And I will check them personally! OR! I will hold you responsible!”
Henry was rendered completely blank–faced!
Nova’s expression also changed slightly. Nova and Henry spoke in unison.
“Grandma!”
“Grandma!”
As they heard each other uttering the same word, they subconsciously looked at each other and then
looked
away.
Mabel was amused. She said, “It’s my birthday, and I am the number one! Henry, just tell me, will you
buy it?” Henry was a bit irritated. “I will!”
“Hahahah…” Mabel was delighted. She then looked at Nova. “Will you accept?”
Nova wanted to refuse. However, when she saw Mabel’s expectant look, she finally accepted. “I will!”
“That’s right!” Mabel was satisfied and continued to eat the noodle, and she finished all the noodle. She
touched her belly and said, “Orville, you think I can still eat as much as the younger me? I’m so full!”
Orville frowned. “Then, why do you continue eating when you’re full!”
“If it wasn’t made by you, I wouldn’t have eaten that much!” Mabel was half–grumbling.
Orville was stunned and rendered wordless. After a while, he heaved a sigh and said, “I will cook for you
more
often in the future. But, don’t eat a pig of yourself!”
Mabel laughed. “Alright! You’ve given me your words. And I hope you could keep your words as Henry
and
Nova would.”
Orville said, “Alright, alright. Yes, madam!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMabel felt her birthday rounded off.
She couldn’t help saying, “Over the past decades I’ve lived on earth, I think today is my happiest birthday
ever!
Nova, it all thanks to you!”
Then, Mabel held Nova’s hand. Nova shook her head. “Grandma, 1…”
“Don’t need to say it. Grandma know it all.”
Nova was stunned.
What did grandma know? Why I don’t know?
Mabel’s birthday party rounded off.
After the party was over, Nova, as Mabel ordered that she was one of the Kings, had to stay and see off
the
guests.
Nova felt reluctant but also moved. Because Mabel’s order was making it clear to the public that Nova
was still protected by the Kings even if she had divorced Henry.
And all the guest left in confusion. They couldn’t figure out why they were together now after Nova had
done
two things that was detrimental to the King.
