The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

"But look at what's going on now. You no longer have a place in Old Master Nigel's heart. He speaks every word with wariness
and apprehension toward you. They're all enjoying their time as a family in Savrow. But they've never cared about how you
endure those long, painful nights alone. Everything Justin has now rightfully belongs to you!"
Grant took another pill, popped it into his mouth, and chewed it slowly. With his eyes closed, he chuckled softly, murmuring,
"Grandpa, you said he was just a child back then, but you seem to forget I was just a child back then, too."
Justin and Bella had planned to stay and accompany Nigel, but the old man insisted they head back home.
"Are you both insane? Why would a young couple want to spend all their time with an old man like me? Do you guys have
nothing to do?!" Nigel pushed them toward the door, "Go, go... It's enough that you visited! Staying too long will just disturb my
peace! Matt, send them off!" Bella pouted pitifully, "Grandpa Nigel, can you really bear to see us go?"
"I can."
Bella was at a loss for words.
"Don't worry, Young Master Justin, Ms. Thompson. I'll keep you updated on Old Master Nigel's condition," Matt reassured them.
The young couple reluctantly left, looking back wistfully.
When Matt returned after sending them off, he came back to find Nigel's face clouded with worry.
"Mr. Salvador, didn't you want the kids to stay longer? Nowadays, you rarely get a chance to spend time with them together. Why
did you..."
"Do you think I'm in the mood for that now?"
Nigel clutched his chest, taking a deep breath. "Matt, I'm deeply unsettled right now. I was afraid if they stayed, they'd notice my
distress and worry even more." "Is this because of Young Master Grant?"
"There are many things I can't say outright. You know that."
Nigel felt agitated and uneasy. "Right now, I'm more worried about Anna than about Justin! Maybe I should go to Hatchbay in the
next few days and personally talk to Chairman Thompson about their marriage. We can't afford to delay any longer. The longer
we wait, the more things could go wrong!"

"Old Master, please calm down."
Matt quickly advised him, “Although Young Master Justin and Ms. Thompson are very close now, their relationship has only
recently stabilized. After all the chaos, Ms. Thompson has lost the chance to be a mother because of our negligence. Her painful
past was only temporarily put to rest through Young Master Justin's efforts, and the Thompsons' attitude has only just started to
soften. If we rush to talk about their marriage now, Chairman Thompson might think we're being presumptuous and taking
advantage of the situation, which could backfire! Chairman Thompson is a complex individual and difficult to predict!"
Upon hearing Matt, Nigel scratched his head in frustration. "Ugh! What should I do then? I'm afraid someone else might take
Anna away!"
"That's unlikely. Their bond is strong and unbreakable. The issue lies within the relationship between the two families, which
requires a gradual approach. Also, Young Master Justin and Ms. Thompson mentioned Mr. Hoffman and Ms. Carrie's
engagement during the dinner earlier. I think you should pay attention to this matter as well."
Matt could not help but feel compassion for Carrie. "Ms. Carrie is genuinely an unfortunate child. It's hard to find someone like
Mr. Hoffman who is devoted to her and would not give up on her. If she misses out on him, it would be a lifelong regret."
Nigel sighed heavily and slammed his hand on his chair's armrest. "They're all my grandkids, and I care deeply for each of them.
Even if it means risking everything, I want to ensure they all find happiness in the end."
