Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 980

Nell never knew that Cathy was in the capital before this, but now that she did, how could she let her mother live in someone else’s territory?

Thus, she pulled Cathy and whispered, “Mom, if you don’t mind, why don’t you stay with us these few days?”

Cathy was stunned and confused. “Why would I stay with you?”

Nell laughed. “Look at you, how can you be confused? I’m your daughter. When a mom visits her daughter’s city, where else would she stay besides with her daughter?”

Cathy was at a loss. It seemed like she understood Nell’s words but she was hesitant at the same time.

Sean frowned.

He said in a low voice, “There’s no need. I know you two mean well, but Cathy’s mind hasn’t fully recovered yet. She’s used to living here, so it won’t be good to change the environment since it would easily affect her mood.”

Nell was dumbfounded, not quite understanding of Sean’s meaning.

“But this is Mr. Donnelly’s manor, right? Wouldn't living in Mr. Donnelly’s manor affect her mood too?”

Sean’s frown deepened. However, upon thinking of her relationship with Cathy, he patiently explained, “Although this is Mr. Donnelly’s manor, he has set aside a small courtyard for us, so he won’t bother us if we just stay there. However, your Leith residence is big and complicated, so I’m worried that Cathy won’t be used to it. We’d rather not.”

Nell’s face sank.

“Mr. Miller, I think you’ve misunderstood. Although the Leith residence is big, there’s nothing complicated about it. Besides…”

She paused and looked at Cathy before continuing, “Mom, I actually have two children now, and I have a third one in my belly. Don’t you want to see your grandchildren?”

Cathy was stunned but soon reacted to the joyous news.

She revealed a smile and looked at Nell’s stomach.

“You’re pregnant? Congratulations, that’s really great, but I…”

Forcing a smile, she finally refused. “I don’t want to go, Nelly. How about… nevermind. As for the grandchildren, can I see them next time instead?”

Nell’s brows furrowed imperceptibly.

She felt Cathy’s rejection, but she did not understand the reason.

So she pursed her lips and sighed. “Well, since you insist, I won’t force you.”

Then, she handed Cathy’s handbag to her.

“We’ll part ways here. I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow morning.”

With a nod, Cathy told her to drive slowly before walking into the manor with Sean.

Nell and Gideon stood there, watching their silhouettes disappear completely before leaving.

On the way home, Nell sat in the car quietly, not saying a word.

Gideon reached out to hold her hand and asked, “What’s on your mind?”

Nell said softly, “I’m wondering how my mom’s situation is going to get better.”

Gideon raised his brows.

“What do you mean? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t force her to remember the past?”
