Chapter 818 - 817: Charles Northwood’s Test
Nia Mitchell sat by the dining table, looking visibly upset."I can live wherever I want; after all, I’m not your wife."
Alright, she admitted she was a bit angry.
Listening to these words filled with complaints and jealousy, the CEO’s footsteps paused for a moment.
Um...
His wife was jealous, and it felt great.
"Stay right where you are; I’ll come to you immediately."
After saying that, a click, and he hung up.
Nia Mitchell was speechless, sitting there still visibly unhappy.
He calls when he wants and hangs up when he wants; how could he be so capricious?
Next time, she definitely wouldn’t answer his call.
"What’s the matter?"
Charles Northwood looked at Nia Mitchell sitting there, a bit curious.
"It’s nothing, Maxwell Peary called."
Mentioning Maxwell Peary made Fiona Sutton frown as well.
"Did something happen between you and Maxwell Peary?"
Even the straightforward Fiona Sutton sensed something was a bit off with her.
Nia Mitchell was taken aback, but in the end, she told Fiona Sutton what happened yesterday.
"That’s too much! How can Belinda Swan be so shameless?"
Fiona Sutton had never met someone like this; she was simply a rarity.
"People like this deserve to die."
Fiona Sutton shouted angrily.
"Watch your emotions!"
Seeing Fiona Sutton so agitated, and the pancakes freshly made, Charles Northwood immediately brought them out.
"I get it, got it."
Fiona Sutton seemed to revert to her old self.
With a glance at Charles Northwood, Fiona Sutton reached out and took a piece of the pancake.
"You’re such a big guy, can’t you act like a man should?"
She had previously wondered why she liked a guy with this kind of personality.
She should admire men like soldiers, liking men like them.
Of course, that extraordinary guy was an exception.
Seeing Fiona Sutton like this, Charles Northwood felt much relieved.
"Belinda Swan is quite lucky; I was about to deliver her a fatal blow, but she found another protector."
This protector is too formidable, he couldn’t withstand it.
That’s why he couldn’t do anything now.
However, if there was even a slight chance, he wouldn’t hesitate.
Since she did such things to Nia Mitchell, he would never let her go.
"Protector?"
Nia Mitchell was a bit confused, but she typically didn’t understand these things.
"Yes, she got someone else’s protection, and I couldn’t find out who that person is."
Speaking of this, Charles Northwood felt extremely frustrated.
If not for leaving the Northwood Family, he wouldn’t be so passive.
Hidden Aristocratic Families, although not many people knew about them, still had their networks and methods.
For so many years, although they claimed to be hidden, they were not in secret.
If he could leverage the family’s power, Belinda Swan could definitely be taken down.
But...
He didn’t want to, and for this, he felt terribly sorry for Nia Mitchell.
"It’s fine if you can’t find out, it’s normal."
To Nia Mitchell and Fiona Sutton, Charles Northwood was someone of similar status to themselves.
How could he possibly have a way to investigate such far-fetched things? After all, they were just ordinary people, while Belinda Swan and her kind were wealthy for generations.
Charles Northwood knew what the two of them were thinking and could only nod according to their thoughts.
"If... if my identity wasn’t simple, would you..."
Charles Northwood suddenly wanted to test them, to see their reactions.
