Chapter 897: Chapter 896

“It’s too dangerous out there. How about I send both of you home?”

Since Avril knew where their father and grandfather were held, Kyle and Juan thought they might be able to develop a plan if Avril went back with them to their mother and sisters, so they agreed.

“Thank you, pretty lady!”

“You’re welcome. Now, let’s go!”

When Avril and the boys reached Nicole’s residence, Nina and Maya were surprised to see her.

“Who is this?” asked Nina after sizing up the woman.

Juan froze when he realized that he had no idea what to call the woman he brought home.

Seeing the blank look on her brother’s face, Nina sighed. “How could you be so careless to bring a stranger home with you?”

Amused by the children’s interaction, Avril introduced herself. “Hello, I’m Murphy’s daughter, Avril, and this is my home.”

Juan and Kyle were just as surprised as their sisters to find out that they had brought an enemy home. It’s a mistake to bring her here!

When Nicole heard the commotion, she stepped out of her room and was shocked when her gaze landed on Avril.

After giving Nicole a once-over, Avril greeted the children’s mother. “You must be Sir Musgrave’s daughter.”

Nicole nodded. “And you are?”

“I’m Murphy’s daughter. My name is Avril.”

Avril then approached Nicole to take a closer look at the woman’s fair and delicate face.

Feeling uneasy, Nicole was about to say something when Avril suddenly asked, “Who’s prettier? You or your mother?”

Nicole was baffled that the woman would mention her mother suddenly.

After a moment of silence, she replied, “My mother’s prettier.”

“Well, that sucks. If your mother’s prettier, that means I don’t stand a chance.”

Nicole looked at the mumbling woman in confusion. What does my mother’s appearance have anything to do with her? Is she right in the head?

“What’s your name?”

“Nellie Musgrave.”

“Let me ask you this, Nellie. Are your parents close? Do they get along well?”

Nicole did not know how to respond to the question about her parents’ relationship. My mother passed away a long time ago. Besides, who asks someone they just met a question like that? What’s wrong with Murphy’s daughter?

“Not well, huh? I knew it! Why else would Lady Musgrave do nothing about her imprisoned husband? It’s obvious that they’re not on good terms.”

Avril then earnestly suggested, “Since they’re not getting along, you should ask them to consider getting a divorce, then they can go their separate ways.”

Nicole looked at the woman oddly. “My parents are getting along just fine! You should worry more about yourself. Do you not have good doctors here who can take a look at your…” She then pointed to Avril’s head, but the other woman could not care less about the insinuation.

Avril grabbed Nicole by the hand and continued with her questions. “Are your parents really getting along? Then, would your mother mind if your father eloped with another woman?”

Feeling helpless, Nicole took a deep breath. What the hell is wrong with this woman!

She then turned to look at her sons and wondered why they brought the weird woman back with them.

Juan quickly explained himself. “Mommy, she knows where Daddy and Grandpa are being held.”

Nicole shifted her focus back onto Avril and looked at the woman warily. “Is that true?”

Avril nodded.

“Where are they being held? Is Levant giving them a hard time?”
