Chapter 186
“Alright, maybe next time when grandpa is on a business trip you can come to live with me,” Nova
observed. “My poor Nova, I know your concern for me.” Mabel smiled from ear to ear. People rest could
learn her sincere happiness from her laughter. The whole dinner, Nova and Mable chattered to each
other pleasantly and made a

harmonious picture.
Kelly and Sian sat opposite them as if they were square pegs in a round hole and Kelly’s attempt to
explain the
mistake of last night failed for Mabel paid all her attention to Nova, laying no look on her throughout the
dinner. Thinking of her parents‘ advice, Kelly kept telling herself to behave gracefully and forbore herself
from
letting her control slip.
This was a trying dinner for them.
Nova and Mabel, instead, enjoyed themselves to the full.

tomorrow I
have to go to work so I gotta go now, I’ll see you again soon.”
“Good girl, said with a smile hovering on her lips, go and get busy. You don’t have to spare time to see
me
especially if you are busy. Grandma fully understood that you have had your hands full on account of
your
promising career. Calling me when you are available is enough.”
Nova was pierced to the heart with guilt. She knew that grandma is badly in need of care from families,
unfortunately, grandpa, Baldwin, and Henry are all occupied with business while Sian is not an eligible
daughter–in–law who always acted against grandma and failed to minister to her.
“I promise I will.” Saying this nova walked out without waving goodbye to Sian and Kelly.
Kelly got something to say with Nova, then she also excused herself.
“Grandma, Mrs. King, I’d better go with Nova, see you next time.”
Mabel nodded impassively while Sian bid farewell to her warmly. “Be careful on your way home.”
But her eyes seemed to imply something about what they had talked about before dinner.
Kelly stiffened slightly after she took Sian’s hint.
Turning around and seeing Nova was in her car, Kelly hastened to get in Nova’s car, but her actions
didn’t
surprise Nova.
“Cousin Nova, would you please give me a ride?” Kelly asked with a deceptively friendly smile.
Kelly was in her car now, and Nova had no choice but agreed.
Before she drove away, Nova gave Mabel a sweet smile.
The figure of Mabel and Sian receded into the distance, Kelly couldn’t resist her doubts anymore.
Turning off
the car DVR aggressively, she was about to open her mouth.
“It seemed that you got something to say.” Nova’s words caught Kelly off guard.
“Nova, why are you doing this?!” Kelly unveiled her true color in front of Nova and glared at her.
Her query amused Nova greatly. Pulling over her car Nova looked her squarely in the eyes. “Then why
are you

“Nova, you did it on purpose! Right?” Kelly said through gritted teeth. “It was you deliberately set me up
at grandma’s birthday party! Nova, do you think Henry will change his mind and remarry you for your little
tricks? No way!”
Nova raised her eyebrows and didn’t utter a word as if she was interested in what Kelly said.
But in fact…
She just disdained to dispute with her. She didn’t kick her out of her car then because Mabel and Sian
were
watching them, but now….
she has run out of patience with her.
“Nova, you used the wrong ruse! Divorcing Henry and defending Chester, all these would only alienate
him
step by step!”
You couldn’t win his heart with three years of marriage. What do you think you can win him back with a
certainly different Nova?!”
“He will never fall in love with you and he will never forgive what you and your father did to him!”
