Fall for you novel Chapter 31

Howard frowned. His mother was nervous, which made Nina suspicious.

"Bonny, what can I do for you?" Andrea had to change the topic.

"I couldn't get through to Howard on the phone, but he just ignored me all the time. Aunt, how is he now?" Said Bonny in an aggrieved voice.

Andrea took a look at her son and answered, "he's fine. He's just busy."

Andrea tried her best to cover the cell phone with her hands so that only she could hear the sound from it.

The show had a great effect. Although Nina was listening carefully, she couldn't hear clearly what a girl was talking to his mother.

"The day after tomorrow is my birthday. Howard used to be with me seeing fireworks, but I want him to be with me this year!" Said Bonny.

"Oh, I have to discuss with him about this. I'll give you a reply later, okay?"

"I know. Howard are always obedient to you. Please, aunt!"

Well, that's still the past!

As for now, she was not sure whether he would listen to her or not.

The conversation finally came to an end. Andrea felt her clothes drenched in sweat.

When she saw no doubt on Nina's face, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She had not completely put down her hanging heart. Well, when the mobile phone rang again, Andrea's heart rose to the throat again. She was like a roller coaster, torturing people!

This time, when she learned to be smart, she directly covered the screen with her hand.

"Dad, are you all right?" Andrea didn't dare to refuse any of Allen's calls.

As soon as Andrea said this, Howard's face turned as dark as thunder.

He knew that it must be bonny who had told his grandfather to put pressure on him.

With that, Howard grabbed her mother's cell phone and quickly walked out.

In the farmhouse, under a big locust tree, the leaves were dense, and moonlight was shining on the cold ground.

Then he said in cold voice, "Grandpa, it's me."

Bonny was standing beside Allen, whose yellow curly hair straggled over her shoulders. With a delicate make-up on her face, she was wearing a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Grandpa, is that he, Howard?" She heard the voice of Howard and asked happily.

Allen nodded, "yes."

"You must ask Mr. Howard to come to England. You tell him, if he doesn't come, I'll go to China to find him."

"Bonny, I will let him come. Ha ha..." Allen laughed cheerfully.

Their conversation was clearly heard by the phone. And it was said clearly by Howard.

Howard answered, "Grandpa, I'm busy with my work. I haven't taken down the land in the south of the city yet. Now the real estate industry in our country is stagnant. I dare not invest too much money on it, and I'm still trying to expand the new project, so..."

"Don't make excuses for me. Bonny only celebrate her birthday once a year. Besides, our domestic real estate companies have been stagnant, so we can invest in the UK. Your uncle Su told me earlier that he had a project to cooperate with Hua group, and I have agreed. I will wait for you to sign the contract when you come back. So, no matter how busy you are, you must come back."

"But, Grandpa, i..."

"No buts. Do you really want to send bun to China to look for you?" Howard's voice was not loud, but full of irresistible authority.

Hearing what his grandfather said, Sherry couldn't ignore it. But he was more afraid that bonny would come to China.

If she came, then he would have a big problem.

If Howard's real identity was revealed, it would be undoubtedly an unforgivable lie to Nina. He hadn't figured out how to deal with the consequences yet.

He originally wanted to take some time to understand it and find a way to make her accept it. If Bonny came now, all this would be messed up.

"Grandpa, I'll go."

"It's Bonny's birthday the day after tomorrow. You must come there tomorrow!" Allen ordered.

"I have something to do tomorrow, the day after tomorrow!" Said Howard with determination.

Bonny was so glad to hear that Howard would come. She said to him in a childish manner, "Grandpa, we can ask you to come here the day after tomorrow."

"Bonny, you're so nice!" Said Allen.

Then Bonny burst into laughter.

Without saying anything more, Howard hung up the phone.

When he went back to the room, Nina still looked at him with suspicion.

She was simple and kind, but that didn't mean she was stupid.

Just now, Andrea was so nervous and Howard's face was as cold as ice. She felt that Andrea and her son were hiding something from her.

But she didn't know what it was.

She looked at Howard with her clear eyes. She still trusted him because he was her husband, the man she loved.

Andrea didn't dare to say anything, or to say, she could not deceive Nina.

Nina was so kind and respected her.

And she liked Nina so much. How could she deceive her!

But for Howard, the only thing he could do now was to keep lying. He also felt sorry for Nina, his baby. However, no matter how strong Nina was, she couldn't accept the truth.

Nina was still quiet. She was not in a hurry to find out something. She just asked indifferently, "is it from Grandpa?"

Why didn't the beggar husband mention his grandfather to her!
