"Uncle Carl, are you all right?"
Wisdom turned around and looked into Carlson's thoughtful eyes. His smile was particularly sincere and innocent.
Carlson's heart trembled slightly, but he immediately smiled and said, "Not good, I feel like I'm about to collapse. I don't know if it's because I'm not used to this place."
"Definitely. Although it's only an hour's flight from Ocean City to the Santell Capital, they're not in the same province after all. It is common for people to be unaccustomed to different environments. So Uncle Carl, why don't you return to where you came from?"
Although Wisdom said with a smile, it was obvious that he wanted Carlson to leave.
He was also puzzled. How did he offend Wisdom to the point that the kid hated him so much?
"Well, I'll be fine in a few days."
After finishing his words, Carlson lay directly on the sofa and he did not dare to drink the tea.
Nathaniel looked at them bickering and shook his head.
"Wisdom, Uncle Carl came to protect us, so don't cause trouble for him."
"Oh, I see."
Wisdom answered obediently and he didn't say anything else before he directly walked into the room. He still had to take care of his little brothers, so he didn't have time to accompany Carlson.
Carlson looked at Wisdom's back and said innocently, "Nathaniel, why does your son hate me so much?"
"I don't know the answer either. You'd better think about what you did that offended him."
It was also Nathaniel's first time seeing Wisdom provoking someone, so he could not help but laugh.
Originally, he thought that Wisdom was an honest kid and was afraid that he would lose out in the future. Now it seemed that he was worried over nothing.
Carlson still couldn't figure it out after he pondered for a while. Wasn't it because he wanted to see Nathaniel's twins? How did he provoke them?
"By the way, when will Harris come?" "He said he'll arrive as soon as possible." Nathaniel remembered Harris White and sat down next to Carlson. He smiled and said, "Let's discuss something."
"What for?"
Carlson glanced at Nathaniel and felt that the situation seemed a little dangerous now. He always felt that Nathaniel was scheming something.
"I'm warning you. Don't try to do anything that you shouldn't."
Nathaniel said indifferently, "What's wrong with coming up with an idea? You see, Harris is our best friend, but it's a waste for him to only work as your private doctor. Why don't we let him treat my wife as well?"
Carlson rolled his eyes and felt that Nathaniel was really crossing the line.
"Where's your doctor?"
Bettany's existence was not a secret, but Nathaniel wasn't sure if she was still on his side.
"She went out for business and won't come back soon Just tell me if you'll let me hire Harris."
Carlson was rarely this serious. He looked at Nathaniel and said word by word, "Nathaniel, do you think my father won't have the same thoughts as me? I don't care what Bettany is doing outside, but she has never appeared since you've been isolated. It's fine if you're still being isolated, but you're back now and your wife is in good health. Do you think they won't have any suspicions because Battany isn't here? I don't care what you are doing or what you are planning, but it doesn't mean that others will be the same. Harris can help, but you should think about this yourself."
With that, Carlson went into the guest room.
Nathaniel was a little stunned because he didn't expect that.
After he thought carefully, he found that Tristan's matter was quite major and there must be many people spying on him. Let alone Bettany, it was estimated that the few servants in the Ye's Mansion and his entire family were being watched closely.
Nathaniel's heart pounded when he thought of this. He glanced at Carlson's room and knew that Carlson was giving him a kind reminder. However, Nathaniel didn't dare to ask Carlson about what he knew.
He quickly went to the study and sent a message to Maverick.
When Maverick received the news from Nathaniel, he quickly replied, "It's okay. Bettany will be back in the afternoon. I have already thought about it, so I arranged for someone else to treat that guy. I arranged for her to treat another patient and she should come back with me now."
The name Tristan was a taboo, so Maverick's words were very obscure.
Nathaniel understood. He approved of Maverick's meticulousness and asked, "Who?"
"Your brother-in-law, Newell."
Maverick's words slightly surprised Nathaniel.
"What happened to him?"
Newell had left with his child since Sisella had injured him. Nathaniel did not make things difficult for Newell, and he sent people to follow and protect Newell instead. However, he could not help but worry because he did not expect to hear from Maverick that Newell was injured.
Maverick said in a low voice, "It's okay. I just want to attract attention."
This made Nathaniel understand the situation instantly.
Newell was injured deliberately in order to divert the attention of everyone from Bettany. When Nathaniel thought about Newell's efforts to help him, he felt a sense of warmth in his heart.
