Chapter 521: Chapter 521: Feeling Jealousy Towards Them
Chapter 521
"It’s nothing, just that Madam was asking about Ruth’s guardianship. Ruth said it’s in your hands, but her tone wasn’t very confident, so I came to ask you just to be sure."
As she spoke, she continued, "The flower field and the entertainment venue combined must have a market value of 40 or 50 billion, right?"
Tristan Collins replied indifferently, "More than that."
"So, these two properties must be in your hands since you’re Joy’s husband and she’s gone now."
Tristan Collins lifted his eyes, the look in them cold and distant: "Not after the child turns twenty."
Tessa Collins exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? What?"
Tristan Collins said in a deep voice, "Her mother had arranged everything long ago. These two properties will be inherited by our child. I am merely acting as a trustee until they turn twenty."
"Both properties are going to her?"
Tristan Collins silently acknowledged.
Tessa Collins frowned, "That’s too partial. What about Heng’er? He’s her son too, isn’t he? She’s not leaving him anything?"
Tristan Collins took a deep breath, "Alright, leave now. I have some matters to deal with."
Tessa Collins got up, "Okay, you go ahead and do that."
She left Tristan Collins’ study room and walked back to her bedroom.
When she was halfway there, she saw Raine Nolan, who had just come back from outside.
She asked in surprise, "Raine, shouldn’t you be at school attending evening self-study at this time?"
Raine Nolan’s expression cleared, and she quickly replied, "I finished my tutoring sessions and felt a little tired, so I came back early."
"Oh, right, you have the final exam this week, right?"
"Yes, I’ll go on Sunday."
"How long will it take?"
"A week. The winter camp will end next Sunday."
Tessa Collins said with satisfaction, "Once you win an award, you can get admitted to Capitol University directly, and then you’ll be free during the winter break. Once you pass the re-examination at the Fragrance Alliance, your bright future is just around the corner."
Expectation and sadness filled Raine Nolan’s eyes.
Tessa Collins noticed and asked, "What’s wrong? Is something bothering you?"
Raine Nolan lowered her eyes and smiled, "It’s nothing, Aunt. I’ll go back to my room now."
With that, she crossed the courtyard and headed towards the side building.
Tristan Collins still hadn’t allowed her to move back to the main building.
At school, she practically had no friends and had become an outcast.
Her mood had been quite good tonight, but when she ran into Cherry Foster while going to the bathroom, she tried to make peace by greeting Cherry, only to be ignored.
Raine Nolan knew that Cherry Foster would never acknowledge her again.
She didn’t want to continue trying to cozy up to someone who gave her the cold shoulder, but her mood turned gloomy, so she told her teacher and left school early.
Besides that, she discovered something inexplicable about herself.
She suddenly felt jealous of Cherry Foster, especially when she saw Anders Spence kissing her.
For a moment, she was burning with rage.
She could tell that this jealousy was different from the jealousy she felt towards Chloe Collins. Although both made her furious and uncomfortable, she knew there was something different about it.
After returning to her room, she sat at her desk, thinking about this matter until the night was dark and silent.
-
At around eleven o’clock late at night, Chloe Collins and Robert Foster returned to the Fosters’ residence.
Evelyn Thompson knew they had been studying hard lately, so she had specifically prepared some late-night snacks for them when they returned.
As he walked in, Robert Foster asked, "Mom, is my brother back?"
Alexander Foster had been on a business trip for over a week and still hadn’t returned.
Evelyn Thompson glanced at her watch and clicked her tongue, "No, he should have been back already, but I couldn’t get through to him when I called. His phone is turned off."
"What?" Robert Foster bit into a sausage and couldn’t help but take out his phone to send a message to Alexander Foster.
