Chapter 185 He Would Be Lonely
In order to acquire the acknowledgment of Kelly, Sian subdued her hatred toward Nova and admitted she
was a
part of the King.
But there were subtle differences between the acknowledgment of Nova and Kelly.
Nova now was Mabel’s granddaughter so she was an undisputed member of the King. But Kelly was not
a daughter or granddaughter of them, which meant that she could only be someone–in–law, namely,
Henry’s
wife–to–be.
To Sian’s surprise, Mabel not only didn’t make her objection clear but also said flatly, “Let’s not talk about
it
till she marries Henry.”
Mabel didn’t set her face against the marriage of Kelly and Henry! Sian gazed at Mabel in horrified
disbelief. Previous to this, Mabel always denied Kelly baldly and stuck up for Nova firmly, but today…she
made no
objection!
Is there a chance for Kelly to marry into the King?
Mabel’s shift in attitude was too sudden to astonish Kelly as well. What happened to her in Sulaimani
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAbbey? Then, almost at the same time, Sian and Kelly cast their eyes at Nova and the hostility in their
eyes seemed to
have reduced somewhat in view of Mabel’s transformation.
Sian even gave her a rather polite smile. “Where is Henry? Seeing no sign of Henry she asked.
Kelly turned an inquiring look toward Mabel instantly.
“He has gone,” Mabel responded drily.
Kelly bit her tongue.
She was annoyed to miss Henry again. Nova was here and distasteful, perhaps that was the reason for
Henry’s
absence. Thought Kelly.
Sian’s voice interrupted her train of thought. “Well, let’s go and get washed up before dinner.”
But Mabel just brushed her off and walked toward the toilet with Nova. “Grandma, I love my life now
cause I
have to care about you, my mere family, and no one could walk all over me. Don’t you think I have visibly
blossomed over the last few months?”
Reading between the lines, Mabel understood that Nova didn’t take the present Bushs as her family.
With her eyelashes trembling for a while, she patted Nova’s hand consolingly. “Nova, you will always be
my
good girl.”
In this way, they four sat at the table with various things weighing on their minds.
Nova, surprisingly was the one who ate at leisure since she didn’t take a blind bit of notice of Sian and
Kelly.
“Grandma, more vegetables are good for your health. Taking note of what Abbot Houng has told you,
don’t
fuss and imagine things, you are blessed with excellent health and lovely grandchildren, so just enjoy
your
happy life.” Nova bantered with Mabel while serving her dishes.
Mabel beamed with nods. “Well, well, it figures.”
“Yes, grandma, there are countless nice days with happiness and health, so you just rest yourself.”
Added
Kelly.
“Umm.” Mabel made no clear and sincere response.
Although she would not dwell on the past further, the thing that had happened the previous day was still
the
sting of salt in her wound. Mabel used to think Kelly was of affectation and the accident of gift last night

With a smile freezing on her lips, Kelly swallowed hard.
By this time Sian rescued Kelly from such an embarrassing situation by serving Mabel more lamb. “Mom,
there
is something justifiable in what Kelly said, you just need to savor every moment of your life now.”
“I will if you can obey me without question.” Mabel gave Sian a meaningful glance.
Sian then slouched mute.
Why Mabel took such a profound dislike to them?
Sian maintained her hollow laugh and clapped her eyes on Nova. “Nova, you should prevail on grandma
to not
bother her head about the affairs of children because now she would only hear what you’re saying.”
Nova had rarely seen Sian talk to her in such a mild way.
Impressed by Sian’s dramatic exhibition of good temper, Nova then beat her at her own game and
invited
Mabel. “Grandma, why don’t you come to stay with me for a couple of days? Though not as comfortable
as
here, I can do the cooking for you myself. How about?”
Nova’s invitation pleased Mabel, but she refused with great content. “Thank you, my little lamb. But you
know, I have got you grandpa to accompany. If I leave him alone at home he would be lonely every night
after work.”
