CHAPTER 977
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 977
As soon as Granny Lynch stormed up the stairs, Nellie quickly sprinted to Nigel’s side.
The two of them raised their hands in unison and gave each other a high-five. However, as soon as
they did, Nellie lifted her head to gaze in the direction of the stairs, looking somewhat concerned.
“Nigel, do you think Great -Granny will be able to convince Daddy?“
Nigel shrugged. “It’ll be challenging to do that.“
Nellie scrunched her face in displeasure. “Since you know it’s impossible, why did you let me play
along with your act?“
Nigel curled his lips into a smirk. “Well, you clearly didn’t think too deeply into this. Daddy is concerned
about Mommy’s supposed mental illness, so he won’t let us return to Mommy’s side. At the same time,
he can’t let Mommy move into Orchard Manor, lest she and Fiona get into more conflicts, but…“
He narrowed his eyes and continued, “Granny Lynch doesn’t know this. Now that she’s gone to talk to
Daddy, do you think she’ll blame him if he rejects her suggestion?“
Nellie lifted her hand to smack her forehead in realization. “You’re right. Great-Granny would never
blame Daddy for this since he’s always been her precious grandson, so the only person she’ll blame
is…Ms. Blake! “
Nigel nodded, then lowered his head and fiddled with his glass of milk, smiling at the same time. “
Today’s only the second day that Granny Lynch has been staying here, but she and Fiona have already
gotten into a disagreement. The longer she stays, the more she’ll grow to detest Fiona.“
If that happened and Granny Lynch eventually exploded in anger, Fiona would never know what hit her.
Therefore, she would be too preoccupied with salvaging the situation that she could not toy with Luna
anymore!
Nellie gave her brother a thumbs-up and said, “Neil was right. Even though you’re the quietest one
among us three, you’re the one with the most wicked ideas.“
Nigel lifted his head to glance at Nellie impassively. “ Do you think I’m wicked?“
Nellie immediately shook her head. “No, that’s not what I meant! I don’t think you’re wicked at all. I was
just saying that—“
“That’s okay, “ Nigel interjected curtly. “Although, now that you brought up Neil…“
He narrowed his eyes but did not finish his sentence.
Nigel could not help but suspect that the boy who had impersonated him while he was unconscious
and accused Luna of being mentally unstable and committing domestic violence was none other than
Neil.
As for Neil’s reason for doing this…
The only way to get to the bottom of this was to find Neil.
Upstairs.
A loud commotion rang out from Fiona’s room.
A short while later, Granny Lynch stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind her.
Joshua handed Fiona, who was leaning against the headboard, a piece of tissue and said rather
helplessly, “Here. For you to wipe your tears.“
Fiona took the tissue from him, still sobbing. At this moment, her upper lip was covered with a foamy
mustache from the warm milk and hot tears streaming down her face.
“Joshua…“ She bit down on her lip as she wiped her tears away. “Granny doesn’t seem to like me at
all. Can’t you ask her to leave?“
Joshua let out a sigh, then lifted his hand to gently pat Fiona’s head in an attempt to comfort her. “
Granny Lynch came here to be with Nigel and Nellie. She used to have something against Luna, so
when Nigel and Nellie were staying with her, Granny didn’t get a chance to visit the children at all. Now
that they’re living here, however, she wants to spend more time with them. You have to understand that
she’s their great-grandmother, after all. She loves and adores them.“
Joshua rubbed his brows as he continued, “I hope that you can compromise in the future, since she’s
your elder, after all. Since you’re such a kind and gentle woman, I know you can do this.“All rights © .
