Female Novel
Chapter 210
Not only Olivia but even Thomas didn’t believe it. Helpless, Declan didn’t explain much either and leftthe Northpine Villa. He could sense a hint of killing intent in Thomas’ eyes earlier, especially after hementioned Olivia’s grandmother had returned.
Thomas didn’t kill Declan, but that was mainly for the sake of Olivia. If Declan dared to disturb herpeaceful life and try to deceive her into returning to the Pearson Family with various excuses, hewouldn’t mind killing another core member of the Pearson Family.
“Ophelie, this is your grandmother I mentioned to you,” Declan said to Ophelie.
Hearing that, Ophelie tilted her little head and stared at Leah curiously, her cute face filled withcuriosity. She was aware of what had happened in the Pearson Family, but she didn’t react much.Whether it was Terrence or Norman, they were no longer her family, so their lives and deaths hadnothing to do with her.
“Ophelie, come here. Let me take a good look at you.” Leah stood up, excited. She had only seenthese juniors in photos before. Now that she saw one of them in person, how could she not be excited?
On the contrary, Ophelie stood still, not moving. Since her childhood, her grandmother had never beena part of her life. She hadn’t even heard anyone mention her grandmother. If it weren’t for Declansuddenly approaching her and telling her that her grandmother had returned, she would have thoughther grandmother had passed away long ago. Now, facing this unfamiliar ‘family member,’ she hadn’trecovered from the shock.
When Leah saw her like that, she forced a bitter smile. Right, I appear all of a sudden. It would bedifficult for anyone to accept it instantly.
Declan sighed and took Ophelie’s hand, walking toward Leah’s direction. Since she’s already here, shecan’t just stand here. They have to recognize each other eventually. I should take the initiative and
break this somewhat awkward standstill.
“Hey, you two just stay there. My sister and I are resting. You’ll only disturb us if you come here. Don’tget too close to us. We don’t know who you are,” said the young man sitting on the couch, his faceshowing undisguised disgust.
“Huh?” If he hadn’t spoken, Declan and Ophelie wouldn’t have even noticed his presence. Disturb hisrest? How are we disturbing his rest? And he wants us to just stand here? What’s with him? Does heown this hotel or something?
Declan was usually mild-tempered, but that didn’t mean anyone could bully him. Although the PearsonFamily was practically nonexistent, the pride of a Pearson man was still present.
Meanwhile, Ophelie was taken aback for a moment, then her eyebrows furrowed. What? Didn’t you askus to come? Now that we’re here, you’re telling us to stay away and just stand here? Is this how theydo things?
“Who are these two?” Declan asked his mother.
“Oh, right, I completely forgot to introduce you to each other. I was too excited just now. They are mygrandchildren. Both of you, come up and say hello.”
“Grandma, we don’t even know these two bumpkins. Why should we say hello to them?” the youngwoman said, pouting. She looked down on Declan and Ophelie from the bottom of her heart. To befrank, she didn’t even hold the people in this city in high regard. This is such a backward place. Howcan there be any good people here?
“I think you’re the bumpkin here!” Ophelie had a fiery temper. She had already been suppressing it bynot saying anything earlier, but now she couldn’t hold back anymore.
“Tch! How dare you talk back? Don’t be too arrogant. Being too arrogant can get you hurt!” The youngman immediately threatened when he saw that Ophelie dared to insult his sister.
“Are you trying to scare me? I wonder how you plan to hurt me.” Ophelie stood with her hands on herhips. Doesn’t he realize where we are? This is Irieson. How dare he threaten me? “Don’t say I didn’twarn you. If you dare lay a hand on me, I’ll make sure you regret it.” The Pearson Family is no longerreliable, but I still have Grandpa Harrison. The Denver Family is also prominent in Irieson. Also, I haveOlivia, and Thomas is an extraordinary person too.
“Haha!” The young woman chuckled. “Who in the world gave you the courage? Is it this rundown city orthose insignificant small families behind you?”
“That’s right. Just listen to us and stay quiet. How dare you talk back? You don’t know your place,” theyoung man echoed.
“Let’s go, Grandma. I don’t want to stay in this lousy place for another minute,” the young womancomplained to Leah coquettishly.
“Enough, both of you! Keep quiet. If you don’t want to stay here, then go out and play.” Leah glared ather grandchildren. These two have been spoiled. I won’t be staying in Irieson for long anyway. Oncethe matter is taken care of, we’ll naturally go back. They were the ones who insisted on coming with mein the first place, claiming they wanted to relax and get away. But now that we’re here, they’recomplaining and wanting to go back.
“Fine,” the young woman grumbled with a pout, feeling wronged. She realized that her tactic of actingcoquettishly was no longer effective.novelbin
At the same time, the young man stood up and led his sister out. When they passed Ophelie, hepushed her aside. “Get out of the way. Even a dog won’t block someone’s way.”
“Hey!” Ophelie stumbled from the sudden push. I’ve reached my limit. It doesn’t matter who he is. Ihave to let out all this pent-up frustration. She then took out her phone and dialed Harrison’s number.“Grandpa, someone hit me.”
“What? Tell me where you are now, Ophelie.” Harrison was furious. Someone actually dared to hit mygranddaughter within Irieson? This is absurd!
Ophelie provided the address. After all, there were only a few five-star hotels in Irieson, and she knewthem.
“You wait there, Ophelie. I will come and take care of them for you.”
“Tsk tsk tsk! Brat! Calling for someone, huh?” The young man and his sister stopped in their tracks,looking at Ophelie with disdain. They didn’t care who Ophelie sought help from because no one in thisworld dared touch them. So what if her grandfather comes? If he dares to come looking for trouble,we’ll take care of him and you too!
Ophelie glared fiercely at him. “I dare you not to run.”
“Fine, I won’t go anywhere. I’ll just wait right here.” He crossed his arms and nodded in agreement.
“You shut your mouth!” Leah shouted in anger.
