A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 613

Chapter 613 Clearing Obstacles

To Nigel, those words felt like a dagger that was stabbed into his heart. At the same time, it cut off the very last chance he had to fulfill his insatiable ambitions.

After plotting meticulously for more than twenty years to seize power, he didn’t expect fate to play such a cruel joke on him in the end.

Instead of being the second son of the Gibson family, he was now a disgraced illegitimate child.

Underneath everyone’s scornful gazes, Nigel stormed off without looking back. novelxo.com fast update

Alistair, too, felt embarrassed by the turn of events. “This is now an internal matter for Timothy’s family, and my involvement would be inappropriate. Timothy is someone who knows what should be done, so I’ll leave this in his hands.”

His words made it clear to everyone that the Gibson family would go through a leadership change.

With that, the rest of the Gibson family was too embarrassed to stay. One by one, they made excuses and took their leave.

Soon, the once noisy hall became empty again.

When there were no outsiders left, Azure’s suppressed rage exploded into the open.

“Timothy, do you think you can disown your own mother just because you’ve reunited with your daughter and have the backing of the Hadley family?” Azure smashed her cup onto the ground. “Who was the one who swore to make the Hadley family pay and exact revenge for Veronica? What good does internal discord within the Gibson family do you?”

Timothy took a sip of tea before glancing at the spilled drink. “Don’t bring Veronica into this. She is not a tool for you to vent your frustration indiscriminately.”

Azure caught her breath while her eyes filled with disappointment. “Even though Nigel isn’t your biological brother, he has always treated you as his elder brother. Let’s not forget everything he has done for the Gibson family. You can’t just get rid of him just because you want to seize power.”

Meanwhile, Christina was staring contemptuously at Azure.

Even though the Gibson family’s last skeleton in the closet was exposed, Azure was more focused on mending the brotherly relationship between Timothy and Nigel than trying to fix the actual problem.

It wasn’t hard to guess her objective. If Nigel wasn’t acknowledged by the Stone family, he would at least still have some place to fall back on.

However, Timothy was dismayed by his mother’s words. “Nigel has undoubtedly ‘done a lot for the Gibson family. In fact, he even tried to kill me for its sake. I have no doubt that he is capable of anything.”

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Azure gave Timothy a stunned look. When the latter didn’t elaborate, the sense of dread within her intensified further.

Meanwhile, Christina came forward to end the sensitive conversation between the two. “The Stone family will definitely welcome the news of having more grandchildren. I’ve already sent news of the glad tidings

to them. I believe they will soon get someone to bring you and Uncle Nigel over.”

Azure asked, “Are you kicking me out of the Gibson family?”

A smirk emerged on Christina’s face. “Officially, you’re still one of us. Whether you want to stay here or go someplace else is your choice. Anyway, it’s common for people to still find love later in their lives these days. I heard that Old Mr. Stone never remarried after his wife died.”

As Christina’s words seemingly struck a chord with Azure, she surprisingly didn’t have a retort ready despite the scowl on her face.

It was then that the butler came over to inform them that the representatives from the Stone family were waiting outside for Azure.
