“Nellie.“
When the little girl was agitated, Neil grabbed her hand.
“I’m sorry, she’s too agitated.“
The little guy held onto Nellie then turned and looked coldly at Joshua. “Since you already made this decision, we don’t have the right to oppose you.
Children’s words are not worth much anyway. But you have to promise, Aura won’t appear in front of us ever again for the rest of our lives. Otherwise, we won’t acknowledge you as our father.“
Then, he pulled Nellie’s hand and went upstairs.
Alice narrowed her eyes and watched the two siblings retreating backs, then smiled wryly. “This child.“
Joshua sighed, “You really plan to… send Aura to Europe?“
“Yeah.“ Alice smiled faintly. “Aura has been spoiled by our parents, she stopped studying after graduating middle school. Why not enroll her in a boarding school, let her catch up on her education, maybe she’ll then become more cultured?“
Joshua sighed, “Your plans are still the most well-rounded.“
Not only could they ensure his in-laws’ feelings were not hurt, but they could also make Aura experience life as if she was in prison, and stop her from causing any further trouble. It was a perfect plan.
But…
It could not compensate for the pain and suffering Nellie and Neil went through.
“Neil, why did you stop me!”
Back in the children’s room, Nellie was so angry she started crying. “She did it on purpose, she wants to release Aura! I want to threaten her, to make her change her mind! “
“Nellie!”
The little boy furrowed his brows tightly. “We’ve already threatened her and made her release Mommy! Now, she has Mommy in the palms of her hands, we don’t have much choice! “
Nellie cried and bit her lip, “Then we are just going to let Aura go like that?”
“Of course not.”
Neil narrowed his eyes.
“Don’t forget, once she’s in Europe, she’s in our godfather, Malcolm Quinn’s stronghold! “
