The Triplets My Ex Never Knew About novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115: Chapter 115: If You Pick Me Up, You Can’t Pick Up Noelle Lockwood

Liam Sloan hesitated. "Should we... look into it?"

Nathaniel Sloan was silent for a long time.

After quite a while, he finally rose calmly. "It’s fine. No need to investigate."

’He knew Estelle Lockwood still had many secrets,’ he thought. ’She had been gone for five years, and if she wasn’t willing to talk... he couldn’t force her anymore.’

...

The banquet ended at eleven o’clock at night, and rain began to fall.

The Sloan Family had arranged guest rooms for anyone who wished to stay the night.

Iris Sloan suggested that Estelle Lockwood stay, but Estelle had to take her three little ones to kindergarten the next day, so she declined.

Estelle Lockwood arrived at the entrance of Sloan Manor, where she received a message from her driver.

[Miss Yara, I’m so sorry, my daughter suddenly has a fever. I need to take her to the hospital. As for you, I...]

The driver worked for the Kendrick Family. His daughter was only eight, and a child’s fever couldn’t be ignored. She quickly replied: [It’s alright. Go to the hospital.]

[Thank you, Miss Yara!]

Estelle Lockwood didn’t think much of it and prepared to call a car for herself.

...

Not far away.

Nathaniel Sloan watched Estelle Lockwood calmly and suddenly asked, "Is Leo Sloan going home?"

Liam Sloan was taken aback. "Huh? Oh, right. She said the old manor is too stifling, so she’s definitely going home."

Leo Sloan had come alone today. Her parents were still abroad, and she had her own house in Crestfall.

Nathaniel Sloan nodded faintly. "Have her come over. I’ll take her home."

Liam Sloan: "...?"

’Bro, my dear cousin, has your brain malfunctioned?’ Liam was stunned.

Although Leo Sloan was technically Nathaniel Sloan’s cousin, they had met fewer than a handful of times in their entire lives.

Besides, the children from the branch families like them wouldn’t dare ask Nathaniel Sloan for a ride, even if they couldn’t find a driver!

Nathaniel Sloan naturally noticed the shock in Liam’s eyes. "What, is there a problem?"

Liam Sloan snapped back to his senses. "No, no, no, no problem! Right away, right away!"

When Leo Sloan heard Nathaniel Sloan was taking her home, she was ecstatic. After bragging to her clique of friends for a good while, she ran up to Nathaniel, unable to hide her smugness. "Mr. Slo... Nathaniel!"

She rarely dared to claim a close family connection, usually addressing him as Mr. Sloan. ’But he’s offering to take me home himself!’ she thought. ’He must really care about me as his cousin!’

But Nathaniel Sloan only gave her a slow, deliberate glance. "Get in the car."

Nathaniel Sloan’s car was exceptionally luxurious. Luke White wasn’t there, so it was just him and the driver.

The front passenger seat was empty, as was the back. Typically, the front seat was for the driver and an assistant, so without a second thought, Leo Sloan opened the back door.

Just as she was about to get in, she heard the man speak again. "Sit in the front."

Leo Sloan’s expression froze, but she didn’t dare say anything, obediently getting into the passenger seat.

’It’s okay,’ she thought. ’Even if it’s the passenger seat, I’ve still got one up on all the other branch family members!’

Nathaniel Sloan nodded, signaling the driver to go.

Liam Sloan watched the car drive away, baffled. Zane Grant, however, just clicked his tongue. "So damn subtle."

Liam Sloan: "Huh?"

Zane Grant: "You don’t get it?"

Liam Sloan shook his head. "I don’t get it."

Zane Grant scoffed. "Just watch. You’ll get it in a second."

The car drove about fifty meters, just reaching the main gate of Sloan Manor, when Nathaniel Sloan suddenly said, "Stop the car."

The driver quickly stopped. Leo Sloan was confused.
