Nicholas stood up, saying, "Dad, but I'm gonna dump Mia when Grandma is cured. She used to be Ethan Windsor's girlfriend, and I'm not gonna spend the rest of my life with used goods!"
"Haha… That's not a problem!" Matt replied with a guffaw. "You might as well kill her after this as long as the matter gets solved successfully, no?"
Only then did Nicholas feel reassured; he stepped straight out of the ward with his car keys in hand. Then, he drove all the way to the Wynn Manor at full speed, reaching there in just over ten minutes. Screech! With a grinding squeal of the brakes, he brought the car to a halt in the courtyard of the Wynn Manor.
Upon hearing the noise, the Wynns immediately opened the door and came out. Standing in front of them was Clarence, who looked really thrilled the instant he saw Nicholas as though he had taken a stimulant. "Young Master Nicholas! Young Master Nicholas!" He walked up to Nicholas excitedly while spreading his arms. "Oh, Young Master Nicholas! I can't believe you're actually dating my daughter!"
Mia looked all shy and bashful beside him. "Dad, this is Nicholas' first time visiting our home, so what are you waiting for? Hurry up and invite him in to take a seat, will you?"
"Yeah, you're right!" Clarence clapped his hand over his forehead. "Look at me; I got carried away with excitement. Hurry and come on in, Young Master Nicholas! This way, please!"
Other members of the Wynn Family said enviously and respectfully, "That's right, Young Master Nicholas! Please come on in!"
Sitting in the living room, Ysabel craned her neck and looked out the window. She swore in exasperation, "F*ck, I wonder what kind of tricks Mia's learned to seduce men. Why are all these wealthy dandies dating her one after another?" As she spoke, she turned to look at Reene. "If only you had half her capabilities! That way, your dad and I wouldn't have to be snubbed by Clarence and his family every single day!"
Reene opened her mouth to speak, but before she could say anything, Kingsley retorted impassively, "Can't you make a comeback after I give you 150 million? Not even over 20 Clark Corporations together are worth that amount, no?"
"Haha! Just shut up, you little b*stard!" Ysabel shot a glare at him. "Young Master Nicholas is coming in here very soon, so what's the point of you bragging in front of me?"
Kingsley curled his lips into a smirk. "Just Nicholas alone isn't worth my attention!"
Ysabel rolled her eyes dramatically. "What a blowhard! If you have the f*cking time to talk big, you might as well go out and work for a living instead! Stop living off Reene every single day!"
While they were talking, the Wynns welcomed Nicholas, as if they were rolling out the red carpet for him, into the house.
Nicholas spotted Kingsley at a glance as soon as he entered the living room. Just when he opened his mouth to speak, Mia complained loudly, "Honey, he was the one who bullied me just now. Had I not mentioned your name, he'd probably have raised a hand against me!" Then, she looked at Reene smugly, saying, "My boyfriend has arrived! Reene, you and this little b*stard are gonna have a hard time today!"
She had thought that Nicholas would avenge her right away. Much to her astonishment, though, he actually nodded to Kingsley, saying, "It's been a while, Dr. Nicholson."
Hearing Nicholas' words, Clarence and Mia exchanged a brief look in puzzlement. The Wynns were absent when Kingsley performed acupuncture on Joshua the other day, which was why they were momentarily puzzled as to what Nicholas meant by calling him 'Dr. Nicholson.' "Honey, what did you call him?" Mia asked with a baffled expression. "Why did you call him Dr. Nicholson? He's just a little b*stard who lives off a woman."
Nicholas let out a soft chuckle. "Seems like you guys have yet to hear about Dr. Nicholson's superb medical skills," he said while walking up to Kingsley. "Dr. Nicholson, you haven't shown up for a while. My grandma's anxiously waiting for you."
Kingsley curled his lips into a smirk. He replied impassively, "I still remember Old Mrs. Fox's illness, but I'm still waiting for Matt Fox to kowtow and apologize to me!"
