While she continued to stare at Noah, Andrea slowly sat down on the rosewood chair. Then, she took a sip of tea before saying, "Well, Noah, I have been wanting to talk to you."
Upon hearing those words, Noah's brown eyes suddenly flashed dark. But he immediately covered it by smiling gently as he sat down on the chair beside Andrea.
"Mother, whatever you need to say, just say it. You can be direct with me," Noah told her sincerely.
Andrea asked the servant to pour him a cup of tea too. Her graceful and gentle temperament always made her look dignified and beautiful. After a while, she explained comprehensively, "Noah, I know you're not satisfied with your father's will.
But your father is not here right now and I have the right to redistribute shares. I promise to be fair and just. I won't be biased towards anyone. I want you and Callie to share our assets equally. The two of you will have 30 percent of shares each. This way, the whole Hua family will belong to both you and Callie."
Noah lowered his gaze a little while a soft smile made its way on his face.
"Mother, do you have any hesitation about our marriage? Are you worried about your daughter?"
Andrea shook her head and sighed softly. Then, she said, "Noah, among the Hua family's descendants, you are the most capable and I'm very proud to call you my son."
She paused for a while before placing her hands on top of his. She held his hand gently then stated, "Although you are my adopted child, you know that I have treated you like my own over the years.
If Callie loves you, I would be the happiest person in the world to see the two of you get married. But we both know the truth. There is no denying that she loves someone else and this marriage is against her will."
While she spoke, Andrea slowly lowered her head. After all, Callie was her biological daughter. She had nursed Callie and took care of h
a cruel and ruthless one. He even intends to have the Hua Group all to himself, ' Andrea thought to herself.
"I see. I will go to JA City immediately and come back with Callie. I will have our servants arrange a car that could take me there,"
after a while, Andrea said while she sighed.
"There's no need to do that, mother. The car has been waiting outside for a while now. I hope you can return as soon as you can. Callie needs to try on wedding dresses when she comes back tonight," Noah firmly stated.
Then, he stood up, nodded at her and continued, "Mother, you can rest assured that I will be nice to Callie."
Andrea smiled bitterly and said nothing.
She just got up from the sofa quietly, went to her room to change her clothes and set off for JA City.
Meanwhile, in JA City, Carla was completely unaware of the confrontation that just happened between her mother and Noah.
As if a reflection of what was happening in their lives, the waves outside of the Seaview Villa were in a turmoil. One after another, the waves surged after each other. The vast sea seemed restless.
But no matter how turbulent the waters were, they never seemed to reach the villa. They could only reach so close, but not close enough to drown the people inside.
