Chapter 570
A resounding voice interrupted the beating.
It was only then that the crowd noticed Nigel was at the door with his secretary, Matt Upton.
Bella had been so attention-grabbing that Gregory and Shannon had not realized Nigel had come as well.
“Grandpa.”
“Grandpa Nigel!”
Justin and Bella spoke in unison, though Bella’s voice was much more affectionate..
Shannon’s arrogance was instantly halved, and she broke out into a cold sweat.
“Dad, why are you here?” Gregory was taken aback. The hand he held the whip with trembled slightly.
“Hmph! If I hadn’t rushed over, you probably would have kept beating. my grandson to death!”
Nigel was sitting majestically in his wheelchair. When he saw how. injured Justin was, he began trembling from anger. “Justin! Are you okay?!”
“I’m fine, Grandpa.” Justin smiled comfortingly.
“Matt! Call my personal doctor to come over immediately to treat Justin’s wounds!”
2/7
“Yes, Old Master,” Matt hurriedly stepped aside to make the call.
“It must have been a huge trouble for Ms. Thompson to call Dad all the way here for Justin.”
Shannon tugged on Gregory’s sleeve as she spoke sarcastically,
turning her focus to Bella once more. “Greg, Dad’s health and legs have always been in bad condition. It’s so late, and he had to rush over here in such cold weather. I feel-”
“That’s enough, that’s enough! Stop acting!”
Nigel irritably interrupted Shannon’s performance with a wave of his hand. “I’m in perfectly good health. Anna often visits to help me manage my condition. Are you trying to curse me by saying that?”
Realizing she had messed up, Shannon panicked and tried to explain.” No, Dad-”
“Also, it wasn’t Anna who called me over.”
Nigel did not allow Shannon any opportunity to retaliate and continued to reprimand her. “This was all a coincidence. Anna
happened to be visiting me tonight, and when I heard Justin was
getting beaten by Gregory, I was so angry that I insisted on rushing
here. Anna only followed me because she was afraid something.
would happen to me. If you guys have anything else you’d like to ask,
ask me, not Anna!”
Everyone turned and looked at the pale Shannon with a complicated
gaze.
Shannon’s eyes were red and wide. She no longer dared to say
anything else.
This time, she had really shot herself in the foot. She had been too
rash!
“Bella, you were visiting Grandpa?” Justin looked up at Bella in
surprise.
“Yeah.” She replied coldly, refusing to meet his burning gaze.
“Why didn’t you ask me to come with you?”
