Chapter 1501
Jared glanced helplessly at her and said, "That's quite hard. I guess Mr. Riddle Sr. might have learned of something
some time ago..."
Nicole could not help but look at him. "What do you know?’
He gave her a deep contemplative look. "The Riddle family is probably the ancient houses that came before the
Johnston family."
Those words caused Nicole's face to turn gloomy.
'What do you mean by that?" 'Could the Riddle family, too, receive news of the distribution of the family crest?'
"You'll find out soon enough..." Jared looked outside, not wanting to shock her.
But Nicole's mood was already in the gutter. 'If Grandpa found out about this, it'll be a mess back home..."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe looked at her local phone that had been turned off and did not even dare to turn it back on.
In the evening, the Riddle family was in turmoil.
Mr. Riddle Sr. suddenly fell sick after receiving some unknown shock and had been unconscious for two whole days
now. No one knew what had happened. The doctor only knew that he had suffered a shock but had no way to rouse
Mr. Riddle Sr. back up.
Everyone came home and kept vigil for two days, but Mr. Riddle Sr. never woke up.
In the hall, all four family households were there. Even Chloe, who was struck off the family register and chased out
of the house, was called back by her family.
Seeing that Miley had taken the opportunity to call Chloe back, Karen could not help but cast barbs, "Ah, I see
someone who had been struck off the family register coming back here knowing that the old man might not make
it. Is it so she can claim a share of her inheritance? Even if Dad survived this, he'd probably keel over the dead
seeing a certain someone here."
Miley could immediately tell that Karen was mocking her daughter and spat back. "You think everyone's like you,
only thinking about the inheritance? Chloe is only here because she's afraid she might not be able to see her
grandfather for one last time!"
Karen and Miley's words forced Daniel to speak out the words he had been suppressing. "Karen, Miley. Dad is only
unconscious. Why the heck are you two quarreling here?"
'These two women. They are so eager for Dad to die so they can split up his property!'
When he heard Daniel's words, Damien, too, lost his temper as he shouted at Karen and Miley. "Enough! Shut up,
both of you! Are the two of you that oblivious to your surroundings?! What are you quarreling for?"
Seeing that everyone was in such turmoil, Gloria was also uneasy. She held Sean’s hand anxiously as she asked,
"Have you managed to get hold of your baby sister? Why isn't she back yet?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the past, Mr. Riddle Sr. would fare much better when he saw Nicole. But this time around, they were unable to
contact her. They were worried that she might not be able to make it back in time should something happen to him.
Raine was also out for a trip and only came back today. When she heard that Nicole was later than them, she
sneered. "Why is that brat not back yet? When Grandpa was doing okay, she stuck to him like glue. Now she's
nowhere to be found when something happened to him? What a filial granddaughter she is!"
Hearing Nicole being mocked, Samuel spat back. "Look in the mirror, please. No matter what Nicole is up to, she's
still far better as a person compared to the two of you who go missing for days on end."
Raine, of course, did not take that retort lying down. "And now, who's the one missing? Nicole is an ungrateful brat,
that's what!"
Just as she said that, the main door suddenly opened.
Alfred immediately went to receive the guest in surprise. " Miss Nicole, you're back!"
When everyone heard his voice, all of them turned their heads around.
