Chapter 181

Chapter 181 It Was Because Of Nova!

After preening herself in front of the mirror, Kelly set off.

She had been thinking all evening about how to greet Mabel and she even primed the opening line for

their

meeting again for fear of getting off a bad start.

But…

When she arrived at King Mansion, she didn’t see Mabel.

“Bates, is grandma at home?” She looked at the butler with doubts.

“Yes, Miss Kelly.” Bates nodded.

Kelly was wondering where Mabel is. “Where did she go so early in the morning?”

Bates had only to tell her truthfully. “Young master and Miss Nova came together early this morning to

collect

Old Mrs. King to Sulamani Abbey.”

“Sulamani Abbey?” Kelly was confused at his answer. Why did they three go there?!

And!

Why did Henry come here to pick grandma and why did Nova the bitch go with them together?

The butler just dropped his eyes to the ground and said no more.

Kelly took a deep breath to tame her anger and managed a smile. “Then… Bates, do you know when

grandma

will come back?”

“Sorry, Miss Kelly, I really don’t know exactly.”

Hearing this, Kelly twisted the handles of her bag and the gift–wrapped gift in her hands. The gift was

handpicked by her especially to please Mabel because she must ingratiate herself with Mabel so as to

win all

the families of Henry around.

At first, she thought with grandma’s favor, she could get around Henry’s father easily.

But things got difficult now! How could grandma recognize her if there was a Nova around her?!

Damn!

She was getting more and more irritated at the thoughts but given the butler, she didn’t expose her

anxiety and insecurity. “Well, I see. Thank you, Bates.” On the surface, she still looked meek.

Just when she was debating with herself what should she do next, there was a sound of footsteps

sounding upstairs. Kelly instantly raised her eyes and saw Sian walking down the stairs. Seeing her

chance, Kelly looked

up at Sian and said in an aggrieved tone, “Mrs. King…”

Recognizing her grievance in Kelly’s voice, Sian felt sympathy for her.

She sighed helplessly. “Good girl, sorry for that.”

Kelly hastened to shake her head. “Don’t have to be. I’m here just to visit grandma, but I didn’t bargain

on

finding she was not at home.”

Anger flashed in Sian’s eyes. “It was because of Nova!”

Kelly was going to mouth, but Sian pre–empted her. “You don’t have to excuse her for that. Come with

me,

your mother called me yesterday and told me that we have something more to discuss.”

There was something strange flickering in Kelly’s eyes when she heard Sian’s words. But she hid it well

with

her adorable smile. “As you like, Mrs. King.” Nodded she.

Sian was satisfied with her response and then they went upstairs.

The butler watched them upstairs until they were out of sight, then he took out his phone and texted

Henry.

“Master, Miss is here for Old Mrs. King. Yesterday Mrs. Sabina has called Mrs. King and they seemed to

have

something to scheme.”

When Henry received the message, the three had just arrived Sulamani Abbey.

After checking the message, he led Nova and Mabel into Sulamani Abbey.

There was someone waiting for them for a while since Abbot had known they would come. As soon as

the friar

saw them, he walked ahead and greeted them politely, “Follow me please, Abbot has been waiting for

you.” Mabel was excited right now and she gave a nod eagerly. “Thank you for leading the way for us.”
