Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 400

Nell was completely shocked and embarrassed.

She really could not figure out why Old Master Garrett’s attitude towards her had suddenly changed.

Beside her, Joel was also confused and could not react to what was going on until Old Master Garrett and Joseph left.

He turned to look at Gideon. “Second Elder Brother, what are they doing? Why do I feel like the Old Master’s attitude towards little sister-in-law is somewhat strange?”

Nell did not say anything because other than Joel, Nell also felt the same.

The look in Gideon’s eyes deepened.

However, he did not continue the topic and simply said, “Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s go.”

Then, he pulled Nell along to leave.

On the way home, Nell asked curiously, “What could Grandpa Garrett and Second Uncle have to tell me?”

Gideon looked at her. “Who knows?”

Nell nodded.

“You’ll know if you go there tomorrow.”

“Huh?” Nell revealed a disappointed expression. “I thought that you already know. If I have to go to the Garrett family to find out, then I’d rather not know.”

The man smiled at her disappointed face and his gaze grew deeper.

“Nelly, can you tell me why you reject the Garrett family so much?”

Nell was stunned. “Rejecting the Garrett family? Me?”

“Yes.”

The man answered with absolute certainty.

Nell snorted. “It’s probably because our eight characters don’t match. I’ve always felt that there was something weird about the Garrett family, but I just can’t tell what. In any case, I just don’t like them.”

Gideon mused, “Is it because of your impression of Jim Garrett and Celine Jennings?”

Nell frowned and looked at him suspiciously.

“Why are you always defending them? Is there something you’re not telling me?”

Surprised, the man quickly said, “No.”

Nell looked at him. “Really?”

Gideon nodded. “Cross my heart.”

The truth was that he was not sure about his guess. He could not help but think about that after seeing Old Master Garrett and Joseph Garrett’s attitude.

“To be honest, Second Uncle Garrett isn’t bad. He’s a good person and I don’t dislike him, but as for Old Master Garrett… Hm, I’ve always felt like he’s a crafty man, so I’ll keep my reservations.”

Gideon chuckled. “If you are able to tell this, then that means Grandpa Garrett hasn’t been up to par these decades.”

Nell blushed at his praise.

“Alright, let’s not talk about them anymore. It feels like we’re saying bad things about them behind their backs.”

“Hm, okay.”

The two stopped continuing the topic.

The next day, Nell naturally did not go. Although Old Master Garrett was disappointed, there was nothing he could do about it. He was just about to tell her the truth directly but he was stopped by Joseph.

Joseph meant that because of the previous incident, Nell already had certain opinions of the Garrett family. If they were to rashly tell her the truth now, she might not be willing to accept this identity and acknowledge him as her grandfather.

After all, Nell’s character was clear to them after this period of time.

She had clear likes and dislikes, and was not a social climber. Furthermore, she was the Young Madam of the Leith family now, so she might not be interested in the identity of a granddaughter of the Garrett family.
