Chapter 69
Jacob still had some concerns.
“Don’t worry. Nathan had a lot on his plate today, dealing with all that chaos. He’s unlikely to return to the Miller
mansion!”
As long as it wasn’t Noah ordering Nathan to come back, Emilia doubted that he wanted to return to the Miller mansion. “But let’s not dwell on that. I’ll buy a gift for Mr. Miller and return home as soon as possible!”
Emilia thought it best to buy some presents, considering Noah’s health. If she waited any longer, she might not return in time. So, she regretfully hung up on Jacob.
Meanwhile, at the Miller mansion…
“Wayne, go tell Fiona and Caroline to come back! Why are they still in the hotel? What can they do? Are they waiting for more embarrassment?”
Noah immediately called Wayne, wondering how both the daughter–in–law and the descendant of the Miller family could be as clueless and obtuse as pigs.
He could feel his blood boiling and thought he might even spit out old blood at this rate.
“All right. I’ll bring Mrs. Miller and Ms. Miller back. But… what about Ms. Bennett? Wayne asked.
“Kick that woman out! It’s best if she leaves Radford and stays out of my sight!”
Noah’s anger flared up at the mention of Jessica’s name. He hung up the phone angrily.
He remembered how Fiona and Caroline had defended Jessica earlier. Noah felt a surge of frustration.
Fortunately, Nathan had grown up under his care. He wasn’t foolish. He hadn’t lost control of the situation, but…
“Grandpa.” When Nathan received Noah’s call, he seemed to have anticipated the storm he was about to face. “Are you all right?”
Noah responded angrily. “Why do you care? When you insisted on marrying that woman, did you ever think you would piss me off?!”
Noah continued, “Are you satisfied now? Are you happy? Have you gained your respect? In my opinion, I’ve been raising you for nothing all these years!”
Noah loved Nathan very much, especially since Nathan was exceptionally talented. But that made Noah feel more frustrated and angry.
He also felt sorry for Nathan for being deceived by a woman like Jessica.
‘Grandpa…”
Nathan didn’t know where to start.
“I told you from the beginning that she wasn’t a good woman. Was it embarrassing today? In my opinion, you yourself in the foor!”
The more Noah talked, the angrier he became. He slammed his designer walking cane on the floor, making a resounding thud.

Chapter 69
Nathan knew he was wrong, so all he could do was remain silent. He feared that saying more would only enrage Noah further, so he remained silent and endured Noah’s torrent of anger.
I’ll give you 20 minutes to come back! Otherwise, I’ll let you experience the Miller family’s disciplinary measures!”
Worried that he might be infuriated by Nathan and wouldn’t be able to hold on until Emilia arrived, Noah hung up the phone abruptly after a passionate outburst.
There also seemed to be a hint of anger in the beeping sound on the other end of the phone. Nathan’s thin lips pursed, and he tapped the remains of his cigar with his long fingers.
“Harvey, you don’t have to cook. I’m going back to the Miller mansion. You’ve worked hard.”
After a quick goodbye, Nathan changed his clothes and left the house. As he descended the stairs, he couldn’t help but look up.
In the past, when he returned to the Miller mansion, he would often see Emilia running down from the second floor with a cheerful smile. But now…
He was truly in a daze..
Nathan pinched the center of his eyebrows and turned away, striding out of the mansion.
“Mr. Smith?
Emilia arrived at the entrance of the Miller mansion looking fresh and well–groomed. She handed her car keys to the guard at the gate and turned to see Wayne waiting at the door.
“Ms. Saunders! You’re finally here!”
Wayne smiled broadly when he saw Emilia, His face, marked by numerous wrinkles, seemed to form a landscape of its own.
He had always liked obedient, sensible, smart girls like Emilia. Most importantly, she had genuinely cared for the Miller family during her three years of marriage to Nathan
“Mr. Smith, you’d better just call me Emilia.”
Emilia smiled as she handed over the gift she had prepared. “It’s been a while, and this small massager is just a token of my appreciation for you in taking care of me all these years.”
Wayne accepted the gift graciously without any hesitation. Then, he looked at Emilia with concern.
“No matter what, you will always be a member of the Miller family in my heart. Look at you. You’ve lost some weight lately…”
As he spoke, Wayne arranged for someone to carry Emilia’s belongings, not wanting her to be burdened. “Mr. Miller has been expecting you for some time. Please allow me to escort you inside.
Just then, another car stopped outside the Miller mansion.
It was a Porsche sports car, and Emilia could tell at a glance that it was one of Nathan’s many vehicles.
Nathan was leaning against the car’s window frame, looking out a bit absentmindedly. Coincidentally, Emilia turned her head at the same moment…
