Doted by My Seven Brothers novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52 Growing Vegetables

But they wore sickly smiles when they saw Nancy go out of the car. After all, Nancy was the daughter of the influential Brook family.

"Woof! Woof!"

Adolph barked and ran over, wagging its tail. Nancy faintly heard someone complain out of dissatisfaction.

"Where did this disgusting dog come from?"

"Where's the butler? The dog is annoying." One of the teenagers even kicked Adolph in disgust.

Adolph dodged the kick and growled at those people who appeared at the Book's villa suddenly.

"Woof! Woof!" Adolph didn't bite anyone because Nancy didn't allow it to do that. But it barked to scare those people.

"Go away! What a disgusting dog!"

Nancy pursed her lips unhappily and Marcus also put on a sulky expression.

"Adolph, come here."

Nancy said softly. Those who cursed Adolph before felt embarrassed, especially when they saw Nancy hugging Adolph. A hint of disdain and sarcasm flashed across their eyes.

They were certain that Nancy had grown up in a village since she was a child because Nancy regarded such a rude yellow dog as her pet.

"Are you Nancy? We are your uncles and aunts. Let me introduce Liz. This is your elder female cousin, Liz. Liz was of a similar age as you. In the future, you can play with Liz."

The middle-aged woman was enthusiastic and talkative. If Marcus didn't stand beside Nancy, she would hug Nancy.

The middle-aged woman appeared warm and kind, judged by her tone and actions. But Nancy was vigilant and hid herself and Adolph behind Marcus. She hugged Marcus' leg tightly and kept silent, her eyes lowering and her mouth tightened into a thin line.

Nancy didn't like these people. They were smiling, but Nancy could feel a strong current of malice from them. Besides, they kicked and cursed Adolph, so Nancy didn't want to forgive them.

Nancy stroked Adolph's fur and didn't say anything.

The middle-aged woman shut up embarrassedly under Marcus' icy gaze.

"Why is Nancy so introverted?"

Marcus said coldly, "Excuse me, I can't get by."

He said "Excuse me" in a domineering manner. He had no patience with these so-called relatives who were thick-skinned.

Marcus was surprised by Nancy's attitude. This was because Nancy was always good-tempered and easy-going even when she was teased by Adam and Louis. But now, Marcus knew Nancy would also be aloof when she met people she disliked.

Instead of being displeased, Marcus was gratified by Nancy's attitude.

"Let's go."

Marcus stroked Nancy's fluffy hair and said gently. His voice softened only when he spoke to Nancy.

Nancy realized Marcus was not angry about her attitude towards the middle-aged woman. Now she was relieved and raised her head to smile at Marcus.

"Marcus."

Nancy was touched because Marcus, as her elder brother, was on her side.

Marcus bent down and carried Nancy in his arms. Those relatives thought it was incredible. Marcus oozed tenderness despite his expressionless face. All the people present knew Marcus was only gentle with Nancy.

The middle-aged woman glared at her daughter, Liz. If Liz could ingratiate herself to Marcus, their family would live a good life.

After all, Marcus was the successor of the Brook Group. The value of its assets was inestimable.

The girl standing next to the middle-aged woman was Yvonne Brook, who was looking at Nancy jealously. Attracted by Marcus' gentleness, Yvonne went forward and shouted at Marcus.
