Chapter 2754
Amelia’s natal family was too powerful and aggressive, preventing Arthur from holding his head high in front of others. That was why he remarried a year after Amelia’s death and even endured all the scolding that the Winslets threw at him for being an ungrateful husband That was until Cooper forced him to let Nick inherit the Wickam as a whole, and the more the Winslets persecuted him, the more unwilling he was to compromise
‘All I wanted was to prove to Cooper that even without his family’s help and Nick, the Wickams would still thrive

“But Noel has really messed up big time this time around. Why would I go to Nick if it weren’t for him?”
Martha jerked his arm. “Then, did Nick agree to the plan? He’s also your son, so no matter what, he won’t refuse to help, right? Anyway, just get Nick to bring Noel back.”
“Did he agree?” Arthur shunned her away and rebuked angrily, “If you had managed to educate Noel properly, would he have gone out there and brought home such a hot potato?”
Martha gnashed her teeth.
“Why is Noel not as good as Nick in all aspects? If Nick succeeds this time around, will Noel and I still have a future in the Wickams?”
On the other side of the city, in a Southeast Eurasian restaurant…
Mahina poured Sunny and Nick a cup of tea each. “I just asked around town. Noel had a fight with Travis in the clubhouse last month because of a woman, and Noel had someone break Travis’ leg. Since then, Python took Noel away, saying that the Wickams had a week to provide them with an explanation. If not, they will break Noel’s leg too.”
Sunny snorted. “This is the son that Arthur Wickam has brought up.”
Nick picked up his teacup. “Python dotes on his only son very much, and he’s a very vengeful man, so he’ll not let Noel go so easily this time.”
Sunny nodded. “Even if your Uncle Cooper were to come forward with you, Python wouldn’t even necessarily back off for your sake. After all, the person that we’re talking about now is his only heir That’s why I told you that if you were to have made a rash decision the other day and anger Python, you’d be the one who has to shoulder all consequences as soon as the matter went out of the Wickams’ control.”
The three of them finished their lunch in the restaurant and rested for a while before they went to the Winslet manor.
