My Second Husband novel Chapter 1052

Naomi asked curiously, "What about her?"

"She... She is actually plotting to bring down the entire Granger family. She's just targeting you because of convenience. That's why you're in quite some danger recently. You must listen to me and protect yourself."

Naomi nodded and continued asking, "Wait. But, how do you know so clearly?"

Nelson grew nervous. In the end, he still didn't tell her the truth.

"That's because she is my neighbour. I found something wrong with her, so I decided to look her up beforehand. Your father knows about it too."

Naomi remembered that day when Amos mentioned Monique's name in the study room. She gasped in realization, "He didn't even tell me!"

"He is afraid that you might be worried, and he doesn't want you to be involved in the underhanded clash with her. With regards to this, I agree entirely with him. I wouldn't have told you all this if it weren't because I had no other choice."

Naomi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Hey, I'm not someone who needs protection 24/7. I can fight alongside you!"

Nelson insisted, "But, I only want to protect you. So, please don't make me worry!"

Naomi flashed a bitter smile at him and rubbed her head on his nose, saying, "Okay, let's go home!"

When they arrived at Nelson's house, the bodyguards instructed by Richard were already waiting there. He introduced them to Naomi and ordered them to send her back to her home.

As of now, the Granger family's mansion was still safer than his place.

After Naomi left, he got up and went to the window. The very second he stood straight, his phone started to ring furiously.

It was from Monique.

"Nelson Luther, how dare you betray me?"

Now that they had a fall-out, Nelson was no longer afraid of Monique. Hence, he was oddly calm.

"The same goes for you!"

Monique sneered, "Do you really think I can't do anything to you now?"

Nelson stopped speaking.

Currently, Monique truly couldn't do anything to him. After all, all her assets had been gravely affected by the incident with Amos previously.

The only exception was the Inchee Group, that was currently in Nelson's hands.

If Monique dared to do anything to Nelson, it was very likely that she would lose this piece of property too.

It was a substantial amount of money. Even if she went bankrupt, it was possible for her to get back on her feet by utilizing this amount of money.

Monique scoffed loudly.

"If I were to know earlier, I shouldn't have saved you in the first place. I could've prevented you from biting me in the back today!"

Hearing this, Nelson smiled and replied, "Miss Monique, it seems that you are a little forgetful. You have colluded with my mother and inveigled me into taking revenge on Amos Granger. However, is he really my enemy?"

"You keep saying that it's for my own good when in truth, it was nothing but your mendacious propaganda to mislead me. You even made use of my mother's age and senility to achieve your own goals. You're really despicable!"

"Oh, so you knew all along! Very well, I expected this much from the person I thought highly of. Nelson Luther, I'll get you back for this, just you wait!"

After that, the phone was hung up.

Nelson frowned as he looked at the phone number flashing on the screen. Seconds later, he immediately switched on the tracking device.

When he knew that Monique had returned, he ordered Richard to install a tracking program in his phone just in case.

Now, it was the time to use it!

However, Monique was rather cunning. She didn't use her own phone to call him. Eventually, Nelson's efforts to locate her failed.

After the trial, even though there wasn't sufficient evidence to release the suspects, it was proven that the Granger family was not involved in the scandal.

Very soon, the shares of Valiant East quickly improved in the market.

The cherry on the cake was that Harley made a call to them, saying that Benedict had finally awoken.

As soon as Naomi entered the house, she saw her parents rushing out. Seeing her, Eudora quickly hugged her.
