"Do you know the phone number of the Brook Family?”
Nicole thought it was time to have a good talk with Rachel Brook, the old lady of the Brook Family.
The secretary hesitated for a long time, and finally gave the phone number to Nicole.
Nicole knew that without the approval of Rachel, the secretary would never disclose the telephone number of the Brooks’. The reason why she hesitated was that Allen did not let her speak.
Allen never wanted her to bear the criticism and burden of the Brook Family.
In her life, she couldn't fall in love with a man like Allen.
Because he was too perfect, too gentle, and too considerate and people could not find a trace of shortcomings. He was admirable and people dared not blaspheme.
Such a man should have a woman who loved him wholeheartedly, instead of her, a woman with someone else's children and living with another man. She was not worthy of him.
Looking at the phone number in her hand, Nicole took a deep breath and dialed it directly.
The phone was answered by a servant.
Nicole introduced herself and the servant quickly transferred her call. Soon, a commanding voice came.
"Miss Nicole, I'm Rachel Brook.”
Lady Rachel was so serious, indifferent, and dignified.
Nicole took a deep breath and said, "Lady Rachel, I'm calling you for Allen.’
"You should know that Allen loves you. You have delayed him for five years. My grandson is no longer young. He is 29 years old this year, and will soon be 30. Although there are many descendants of Brook Family, Allen is the only one who has made great achievements. Miss Nicole, do you understand what I mean?"
Nicole had never felt ashamed before. She had always thought that she had the ability to support herself. Even though Allen was willing to take care of her, she had also tried her best to match the position and salary that Allen offered. But at this moment, under the pressure of Rachel, Nicole suddenly felt ashamed.
"I'm sorry, Lady Rachel.”
"I don't want to hear your apology. Five years ago, Allen insisted on bringing you back. At that time, you were injured all over, and you were even pregnant with another man's baby. We_ did not agree with your relationship and Allen. After all, the Brook Family is a well-known family, and Allen's wife must be a girl from respectable family. In any case, a woman like you is not worthy of him.”
Nicole felt ashamed.
Five years ago, Allen protected her and her children, but also angered the Brooks. So, Allen had a bad time in the Brook Family in the past five years. However, he never complained in front of her. He still treated her as well as usual.
Nicole thought she did not deserve such a deep feeling. She had been thinking about how to do to repay Allen for his kindness, but had not found it so far.
Nicole didn't say a word. Lady Rachel continued, “Allen is a stubborn man. He has done so much for you in the past five years. He tried his best to raise your children, and even refused all blind dates. In the past five years, I have also seen your efforts, and I can see that you are not a woman who is snob. Although I do mind that you have two children, Allen is not too young and I am old. I just want to ask you, if Allen marries you, do you agree or disagree?"
Nicole was shocked by Lady Rachel's words.
What was going on?
Wasn't it that the Brook Family was forcing Allen?
How could Rachel ask her this question?
"Lady Rachel, I...”
"Don't rush to answer. I know what you're going back for. You did this for your daughter. I know you will do anything for your daughter. But Nicole, I can accept you now, but I can't accept that you become embroiled with other men. I don't care who you were with before, but if you really want to be with my grandson, you should think about it carefully. The Brook Family can give you everything you want. Even if it's the bone marrow your daughter needs, we will make every effort to help you find the right
one. But the precondition is that you have to give me an accurate answer. You must tell me whether you have had sex with that man this time.’
Rachel's questions were very abrupt, and people couldn't bear it. However, Nicole knew that this was the biggest concession of Rachel.
It had been five years until the Brook Family finally accepted her and even agreed her as Allen's wife. However, for Nicole, none of this was what she wanted.
Nicole knew what efforts Allen had made in the past five years, and even knew that Allen was waiting for her reply. But Nicole couldn't deceive herself, not to mention Allen.
She took a deep breath and said, "Lady Rachel, I’m sorry. I can't repay Allen's kindness to me in my life, but I only regard him as my brother. Allen is a perfect man. I am a stain and will let him no longer perfect if he stands beside me. He deserves a better girl.”
When saying this, Nicole knew that she and Allen might have come to an end.
She was very reluctant.
In the past five years, Allen had done more to her and her children than anyone, even Samuel, the biological father of the children!
But she did not love him.
When Rachel heard this, she said coldly, "Miss Nicole, you give up the chance to enter the Brook Family. But I have to thank you. Thank you for giving me a clear answer and letting go of Allen. From now on, you are still the designer of the company, and you can continue the projects. I will also support your daughter in finding the right bone marrow. I just hope that from now on, you will never contact Allen. Since you want to give him a freedom, please let go of him. Thank you."
Nicole suddenly wanted to cry.
"Lady Rachel, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.”
"Take your own road well. Since you have chosen, don't regret it. Although I don't know that man, I have heard that he is also an overlord. Miss Nicole, I don't hope that there is a grudge between the Brook Family and the Green Family in the Seapolis City because of you. Do you know what I mean?"
Nicole knew it.
What Rachel meant was very clear.
She was a siren.
Allen was likely to fight the Green Family because of her refusal. How would Samuel do then?
Would he not fight against the Brook Family?
Samuel had never been a kind-hearted person. Especially now he was the leader of the Green Family. Would he give up the whole Green Family for her?
Nicole struggled with conflicting feelings.
