Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Before the Storm Comes
The next day, Brandon Piers went to the Bell family.
After that, Eva Bell found herself confined.
The entrance was guarded, her phone lost signal, and the hotel room became a temporary prison.
Initially because of the failed plan, coupled with the anger accumulated from being slapped by Abigail Green, Eva finally erupted after being stopped from going out for the Nth time. She could no longer maintain her image as a noblewoman and made a scene, but still didn’t get to see Brandon.
This made Eva even more furious, but the Bell family had no intention of helping her, which made Eva realize that Brandon must have gone to the Bell family.
She lost again, lost once more!
This realization made Eva collapse. She just couldn’t understand why her own son couldn’t understand her, why he had to marry that woman’s daughter.
Even if their mother-son relationship wasn’t good, she was still his mother. How could he be so cruel to his own mother?
Unable to understand, Eva could only put all the blame on Abigail.
It must have been that woman, Abigail, whispering in her son’s ear, making Brandon disregard their mother-son relationship.
Eva’s obsessive thoughts made her even more convinced that her decision was right.
And the news of Eva’s confinement quickly reached Oliver Piers.
"I knew he was a wolf cub. Since he has already started attacking Eva, he definitely won’t spare us. How are things on your end, Daniel?" Oliver knew that without taking Brandon down this time, he would definitely retaliate.
Last time, that brat easily put Nathan Moses in, and put Maurice Moses in the news, forcing him to cut off an arm. Originally, Oliver wanted to take advantage of Eva’s madness to separate Brandon and Abigail. While Brandon was distracted, he planned to have Daniel take over the company.
But now, not only had the plan failed, they also had to face Brandon’s retaliation. This made Oliver anxious, so he urged Daniel without caring about public opinion.
"Everything else is ready, except for an accident with Second Uncle. He only agreed to sign a shareholding partnership agreement." Daniel didn’t expect Second Uncle to make such a demand at this time.
Oliver frowned. "That idiot must have been instigated by Adam again. But it’s okay, as long as he supports you, we can deal with other problems later. While the entertainment news is overshadowing Maurice’s affair, take over the company."
Although the news of Director Locke marrying an 18th-line actress had helped Brandon suppress the rumors of his union with Swift, it also temporarily overshadowed Maurice’s scandal.
"Okay, I’ll get on it right away." Daniel also knew that although the current situation seemed fraught with danger, it was also the best opportunity.
Once Brandon recovered, it was uncertain who would suffer.
That day, Daniel signed a cooperation agreement with Mason Piers.
Despite Adam’s several attempts to dissuade his father, he could only settle for second best and turned the transfer agreement into a cooperation agreement.
As soon as the agreement was signed, Adam hurriedly drove to Moon Lake Manor.
Upon reaching the main house, Adam heard bursts of laughter, and he was stunned. While things were catching fire, how could they be so relaxed and leisurely?
"Uncle, Uncle..." The first to see Adam was Teddy.
The little one had recently become more fond of walking. May was the most beautiful season in the manor, and the old master had laid out an extra-large carpet in the rose garden to play with Teddy, letting the little one walk barefoot on it.
Brandon, worried about Abigail’s injuries, stayed in the manor with Abigail to help her recover after visiting the Bell family. At this moment, he and Abigail were sitting lazily on the carpet watching the grandfather play with his grandson, not noticing the servant bringing Adam in.
Standing under the large archway of flowers, Adam wanted to speak several times but was interrupted either by the old master or by Teddy’s laughter, feeling a bit awkward. It wasn’t until Teddy called "Uncle" twice that everyone looked at Adam.
Adam felt like he could die for Teddy, thinking that his earlier pampering of the little one hadn’t been in vain.
"What are you doing here?" The old master’s tone turned from doting to disdain upon seeing Adam.
Just as Adam was about to take off his shoes to step on the carpet and hug Teddy, he paused and looked at the old master with grievance, "I’m also your grandson."
"Oh, Teddy, come to great-grandfather." The old master responded indifferently and continued calling for Teddy.
Adam, "... alright then."
Indeed, not being a biological grandson meant having no status.
"What’s up?" Brandon asked indifferently, finally shifting his attention from Abigail when he saw Adam being snubbed.
"Third Uncle signed a cooperation agreement with my father today. I guess they might take action in the next couple of days." Adam didn’t hold back and after speaking, he looked at Teddy, "Come here, Teddy. Uncle has candy for you."
Hearing this, Teddy wriggled out of the old master’s arms and toddled towards Adam, holding a rose in his hand. Adam grinned so widely that his teeth showed, feeling a bit acknowledged.
Little did he know, just as he spread his arms to catch Teddy, the little one walked past him and happily reached out to Abigail, "Mama, mama, here’s a flower... flower..."
Just as Adam slowly turned back, ready to reprimand the old master, he saw Teddy stumble to Abigail’s side and hand the flower to her.
Abigail smiled, her almond eyes curving, and she hugged the little one tightly, kissing him on the cheek.
Overjoyed from the kiss, Teddy tried to kiss Abigail in return.
Adam’s mouth twitched. Awkwardly but politely, he retracted his arms, silently denouncing the monster’s child as a little monster, knowing so early how to please his mom, a little genius!
"Go, play with grandpa." In the midst of Teddy trying to kiss Abigail again, Brandon picked the little one up and disdainfully said, "She’s my woman."
"Want mama, want mama’s kiss..." Teddy protested, trying once more to get close to Abigail, only for everyone to hear Brandon’s retort.
Everyone was initially stunned, then looked at him incredulously.
Even Abigail slightly parted her lips as if asking the man, are you serious? My son is not even one year old yet!
Adam felt like covering his face, finally understanding why Oliver cooperated with Eva against Abigail. Recalling the man’s madness when he thought something had happened to Abigail, it seemed that Abigail was truly his Achilles’ heel. Not to mention, he even got jealous of his son, quite peculiar.
Noticing Adam’s gaze, Brandon raised his eyes to him, "Finished talking? Why are you still standing there?"
His tone was full of disdain.
Adam felt aggrieved. Did he not make himself clear? The third branch was about to take action, could this man not be so carefree?!
"Aren’t you worried?" Adam couldn’t hold back.
"Just a bunch of jokers." Brandon replied indifferently.
Adam was fuming. Those jokers almost tarnished your reputation, big brother!
But he didn’t dare retort, only muttering, "I want to play with Teddy."
Brandon glared at him, then looked at his son clinging to his wife, "Hold him."
Teddy and Adam, "..."
