A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 479

Rosy Nalan was not upset about her grandfather saying that she wouldn't be able to find a husband as good as Charles; rather, she despised the fact that he was treating her and Linda differently.

Rosy thought that her grandfather was too biased toward Linda. Obviously, Linda was wrong first by an hour late for dinner. Punctuality was one of her grandfather's most upheld virtues. Rosy was just being honest to point it out and to remind Linda of how important punctuality was to the Nalan clan. However, her grandfather didn't side with her, but, instead, he criticized her. How did that make sense?

Tears flooded Rosy's eyes, as she felt so hurt. But Rosy didn't dare say anything more since both her grandfather and her father had opened their mouths to stop her from going against Linda. Rosy, then, had no choice but to shut her mouth.

Linda felt quite joyful to see Rosy's tearful eyes. It was Rosy who attempted to bring trouble to her in the first place. Linda didn't understand why she had put on such an aggrieved look. Was it because Lord Nalan didn't side with her? What did she do wrong to Rosy this time? Was she starving to death because of Linda's tardiness?

"Okay, Rosy, just forget about it. Linda didn't do it on purpose. Stop dwelling on it, and let Linda off this time. Otherwise, people might think that we are too mean and unreasonable if they ever know about this, " Murphy Nalan also stood up and said.

Linda looked at Murphy, who was smiling kindly to her. On the surface, Murphy was helping her, but Linda knew that she had bad intentions inside. Murphy was the most unpredictable person in the Nalan clan.

Therefore, Linda had to be wary of Murphy. She wasn't scared of Rosy, but Murphy, who had always hidden her true thoughts so deeply. She might be the one who would stab Linda someday in the back.

"Linda, your baby will be born in about two months, right?"

Lord Nalan asked as he looked at Linda's belly.

Linda put one hand on her belly and said, "Yes. And it's babies, grandfather. I'm expecting twins. They will come out in two months."

Lord Nalan's face was already red due to the wine he had drunk. When he heard that Linda was having twins, he got even redder out of delight. A dash of joy painted across his face. He touched his beard and said with a smile, "Twins? That's great news! No wonder your belly is so big. If that's the case, then... I have to prepare two presents for my great-grandchildren. Hmm... what should I give them? Let me think about it."

Lord Nalan had only prepared one present for his great-grandchild. Much to his surprise, Linda had twins in her belly, so he had to think about the presents again.

"Grandfather, please don't bother yourself too much with it. I know that your love to me and my babies is enough. Anything would be fine, " Linda said with a smile.

She didn't care about the presents. She just wished that her babies would be born safely.

"No, I can't just randomly pick any present for them. They are my dear great-grandchildren. I have to give them something precious enough, " Lord Nalan said. He paused and then continued to say, "How about this? A land by the seaside wharf in the Eastern District was purchased by the Nalan clan three years ago. We have been building a holiday resort there. I will give the holiday resort to one of my great-grandchildren. And then... For the other baby... Oh, how about the Sky Building? The Sky Building would soon be completed. It's located within the centre of the city, and it would become one of Nalan clan's commercial estates. I will give it to the other baby. The holiday resort and the Sky building. Those should be good enough for the twins."

Lord Nalan kept muttering out his words without giving a chance for the other people to speak. Except Linda, all of the Nalan clan's members were stunned.

The holiday resort and the Sky Building were the most important projects of the Nalan clan's business. But Lord Nalan just gave them both to Linda's babies. The other family members were upset and angry. If Lord Nalan would really do as he had said, Linda would have taken a large part of the Nalan clan's properties.

However, even though they were very furious, they couldn't dare argue with Lord Nalan, especially after the fiasco last time. When Lord Nalan gave Linda two branch companies owned by the Nalan clan as Linda's wedding presents, Rosy didn't agree with Lord Nalan's decision, so she got scolded seriously by him.
