Chapter 37

“Grandfather Piers, I need to rush home for something urgent, I will return as quickly as I can,” Abigail turned around to ask for leave.

After she agreed to Brandon Piers yesterday, she received a card with three million on it.

The Piers family’s wealth was understated but unmistakable.

Moreover, this three million was not simply for Abigail’s one year, but also for the reputation of the Green family.

“Let the driver take you.” Elder Piers, looking serious after Abigail made a phone call, guessed something had happened to the Green family.

“Thank you, Grandfather Piers.” Abigail did not hesitate.

Suddenly, Brandon Piers, who was lying in the rocking chair, opened his eyes, “Pullan, take her.”

“Young Master…” Just yesterday because he escorted Miss Green, it gave Uncle Piers’s people an opportunity.

Brandon Piers cast an unhappy glance at Pullan.

Pullan immediately closed his mouth, obediently walking towards Abigail.

However, Abigail rejected, “It’s enough if the driver takes me.”

Pullan was obviously no ordinary person. His soldierly aura was intense and unsettling, far more than just an ordinary bodyguard. When Pullan escorted her yesterday, Brandon Piers was injured that night.

She didn’t think this was a coincidence.

Recently, she had learned some information about the Piers family from a detective. Brandon Piers’s parents had died young, and he had an older sister who lived in M Kingdom.

Brandon Piers had been frail since childhood, with a congenital heart disease. He had been taking medicine to prolong his life for years, with some doctors predicting that he would not live past thirty.

However, she observed last night that Brandon Piers’s heart problem was not congenital.

Only an old man and a frail patient guarding such a business empire as the Piers family, it would be strange if nobody coveted it.

Fighting with knives and guns had probably been going on for more than a day or two since Brandon Piers seemed so calm.

He had likely been through a lot of these experiences over the years.

Brandon Piers ignored what Abigail said, “Pullan.”

“Miss Green, please.” Pullan respectfully gestured for her to proceed.

Abigail felt helpless. This man seemed like a gentleman, but was truly domineering.

After Abigail left with dissatisfaction, Brandon Piers’s eyebrows raised slightly. Turning his head, he met his grandfather’s probing gaze, “Hm?”

“Kelly, take the child upstairs to sleep.” The old man didn’t pay heed to his grandson and turned his head to instruct Kelly.

Seeing this, Housekeeper Piers quietly withdrew from the living room.

“Injured?” The old man dropped his previously gentle demeanor, his eyes suddenly as sharp as a hawk’s.

“A minor injury.” Brandon Piers didn’t seem to care.

However, the old man was even more angry, “What are you planning?”

“Uncle Piers has been growing increasingly ambitious over the years. How can I disappoint him? Don’t you think?” The afternoon sun streamed through the hollow-carved glass, making the excessively handsome face look exceptionally righteous. However, the words he spoke did not carry an ounce of warmth.

The old man looked at his grandson’s deceptive face and sighed softly, “How is the surgery preparation going on? It can’t be negligent.”

“It will be.” Brandon Piers said, although he knew himself, finishing this operation smoothly wouldn’t be easy. As for the success of the operation that was another matter to consider.

Naturally, Elder Piers understood the danger. His usually lively complexion showed a hint of fatigue, luckily, Teddy’s arrival brought new hope to the stagnant Piers family.

Just didn’t know if the child was lucky or not, “Miss Green is not the best choice, whereas Abigail is a good girl.”

Brandon Piers lying on the chair suddenly opened his eyes, “Grandfather, have you lost your mind?”

Grayson Piers’s beard twitched, “I think you’re the one who lost his mind! Don’t you think Teddy and Abigail are more compatible? This girl may be a bit chubby, but she’s pure-hearted, more suitable to be a mother. If your surgery succeeds, you can even have another one.”

The old man felt better the more he pondered on his idea.

“Is that just slightly chubby?” Brandon Piers replied indifferently, his earlobe slowly turning pink.

“Vulgar.” The old man sneered.

Brandon Piers didn’t know why he suddenly thought of the chubby girl saying, “I want someone in good health.”

Overtly despising that he can’t perform!

“No, I’m afraid she’ll squash me.” Brandon Piers got up, leisurely walked upstairs.

Grandfather Piers was stupefied for a while, then laughed and scolded, “Useless!”
