The Killer Queen ( Noella Briony ) novel Chapter 399

"Hey, kid, let go of my hand."

"Not happening! Uncle, you're so lame. You don't protect Aunt Noella, I will! Aunt Noella, don't marry Uncle. Marry me, I'm the most responsible man in the family!"

Noella burst into laughter at the child's words.

This kid, he's something else!

Palmer and his youngest nephew were in a stare-off.

Instant headache!

"Gavin Vaughn, are you asking for a spanking?"

"Is it illegal to spank kids here?"

"Nope."

Gavin immediately screamed and lunged into Noella's arms!

"Aunt Noella, save me!"

"Just take him along, it's no big deal."

Since Noella agreed to take the troublemaker, Palmer turned to seek the child's mother's opinion.

"If it's not too much of a hassle, take him with you. This child adores his uncle the most! Last time, he even said his dream is to be just like his uncle!"

Gavin suddenly became shy, his face flushed as he buried it in Noella's shoulder, his little hands covering his face.

Palmer nodded in agreement, "Okay, we'll take good care of him."

Gavin wasn't exactly light. Last year, Sexton even strained his back picking him up, which says something about his weight.

Worried he might be too heavy, Palmer set Gavin down and led him by the hand.

Gavin immediately grabbed Noella's hand, clamoring to play with Aunt Noella!

Kitai looked at his boss leading a child by the hand, feeling a mix of awe and fear...

Their boss had such a tender side?

Erek emerged from the bushes, his hair tangled with weeds.

"Kinda looks like a family of three, doesn't it?"

"Sort of... but our boss is too young to have a kid that big, right?"

Erek spat out a straw he was chewing, "Let's get to work. Otherwise, the boss might make sure you never get the chance to have your own family of three."

Kitai hurried after him!

...

Inside the warehouse.

A staff member led Noella and Palmer to an empty room, pulling out a document.

Feeling the door lock behind them, Noella subtly squeezed Palmer's hand.

As she reached for the document, Gavin read it out loud in a childish voice.

"Why's it in Italian? I know this! It's asking Aunt Noella to donate her factory for free, and all her fabrics to this person named Or. Who's that? Aunt Noella also needs to give away all her designers to Or."

"That's so shameless, what's this about?"

The staff member clearly didn't expect a child to understand Italian!

They quickly tried to snatch the document back, placing it roughly in front of Noella.

"To get your fabrics back, you need to sign this."

Noella raised an eyebrow, "Sign this donation agreement?"

"No, it's all the child's nonsense. This document is fine, just sign it to take your fabrics."

Noella calmly scanned the document.

They were after her brand, Azure, and its production line, including all designers under Azure!

Especially noted, Azure herself had to be included.

Was this all for her factory?

"What's wrong with my fabrics?"

"We received a report claiming your fabrics were contaminated with foreign pathogens, needing another round of disinfection. If they fail the tests, they'll be destroyed!"

"Considering Azure's brand impact and tax contributions, just sign this contract, and you can take your fabrics."

Noella's lips curled slightly.

"Oh, is that so? Well, if the fabrics are contaminated, I wouldn't want to bring them in and disrupt our healthcare system. If it introduces pathogens, that would be a grave mistake. Better to destroy them."
