Chapter 375 Why Dividing Family Properties
Chapter 375 Why Dividing Family Properties
Lenny frowned upon hearing such words from his daughter, so he told Rosy Nalan, "Rosy, why are you
saying such things? Apologize to your sister."
"I am telling the truth." Rosy didn't want to apologize, but she dared not say anything more at the sight
of her father's grim face. She just blurted out those words without thinking too much.
"It's okay, but with your attitude, you must have offended many others! But I won't make a fuss about
it."
Linda decided to be better than Rosy, her smiling eyes curving like crescents. She was pregnant, yet
her mesmerizing beauty still provoked the envy of Rosy.
"It's you who have offended so many others. I did not!"
Lord Nalan had been there for a long time, pretending to take a nap in the chair with his eyes closed.
He was disappointed with Rosy's words, but he said nothing.
"Hey, the star of the night still hasn't showed up. What's going on? We're here to see Young Master Mu,
" Murphy Nalan said as she looked around.
"He is occupied by some business in his company, and he'll be here later." Linda told her honestly.
Murphy seemed to have held back some words.
"Sister, if you have something to say, then just say it out loud."
Linda had realized by now that this Murphy Nalan was not easy to deal with. Her gentle voice would
make you think she was on your side, yet her sarcasm was evident.
"Young Master Mu couldn't arrive on time even if the dinner party is important. It is evident that he
doesn't take you seriously! Haley, you should try harder to hold onto his heart, or else…"
Linda couldn't help but laugh at Murphy's words.
What was she suggesting?
Linda had no choice but to tell her with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, sister. Young Master Mu
treats me very well, and I'm very happy with him. If my memory serves me well, you haven't gotten
married yet, right? I urge you to focus on your own marriage. After all, as you grow old…" Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
"You…"
Murphy's face paled with these words.
As they were talking, a man walked in from the front door. Suddenly, they all stopped talking.
He walked over slowly, impressing every woman present by his handsome face.
For all these times, they only saw Charles on newspapers and financial reports.
It was the first time that Rosy and Murphy saw Charles in person.
'Oh my, Young Master Mu is so handsome!' Rosy thought to herself.
"Welcome, Young Master Mu!" Murphy stood up and stared at him. 'He is truly one of a kind!'
He walked in slowly and glanced around the room with his cold eyes, captivating everyone with his
frosty glance.
Confirming the rumors, Young Master Mu indeed exuded an aristocratic temperament but a cold
disposition which served as a signal to keep distance from him.
He took a glance at Murphy and walked over to Lord Nalan, "Grandfather, I'm so sorry for being late."
The dinner feast started at five o'clock. But Charles got there half an hour later. He was late, so he
made no excuses.
"Yes, you are late. We have waited for you for a long time. How are you going to make it up to us?"
Lord Nalan opened his eyes and looked at Charles.
"Grandfather, I have told my wife beforehand and got her permission. Otherwise, I would have come on
time, " Charles told him calmly.
Linda touched her nose, resisting the urge to laugh. It seemed to her that Charles was so natural and
skilled at using her as an excuse!
When did he ask for her permission to arrive this late? He merely informed her that he would be late for
the dinner feast!
But Linda wouldn't expose his tricks.
Actually, Charles had made Linda sound important to him by those words.
Everyone knew that Young Master Mu was of such a noble character. Many women fought for his
attention, And a lot more wanted to stay by his side, even with no recognized status.
But now, Linda was about to be his wife and Young Master Mu cared for her very much. She must have
saved the whole universe during her last life to get such treatment!
"Linda, is that so?" Lord Nalan asked.
"Yes, he told me beforehand. Sometimes, men should take their career as the first priority. It's all right, "
Linda said with a smile.
"Now that Linda has spoken for you, I will let it go." Then, Lord Nalan nodded his head and said, "Since
everyone is here, we can start our dinner. Today is only a family feast, so just relax, chat a bit, and get
to know Young Master Mu."
Charles didn't want to know these people. He only went for Linda and sat by her side, gazing at her all
the while without talking to other people.
Rosy intended to talk with him, but Charles didn't respond to her calls. Feeling somewhat embarrassed,
she didn't try to speak to him anymore.
Dishes were served one after another. Charles looked at these dishes, selecting Linda's favorites.
Once her favorite dish was served, he would give her a small portion from the plate.
As for the soup, he would cool it with his breath and feed her the soup at the right temperature.
This family feast had changed the perspective of many family members of the Nalan clan toward
Charles.
They had heard that Charles was a decisive person in the business world, and that no woman could
arouse his interests. But it didn't occur to them that Charles would become the husband of Haley
Nalan, the lady of the Nalan clan, and treat her with so much love!
When the feast was about to end, Charles greeted everyone present for the sake of Lord Nalan.
"All right, now that we have dined to satiety, I would like to make an announcement. It's still a secret, so
please do not tell others when you leave here, " Lord Nalan told everyone after the meal.
"What is it that deserved such solemnity?" Lenny asked.
"My granddaughter is about to get married, and I intend to give her half of my properties as a wedding
gift."
All the people present were silenced by Lord Nalan's words.
"Please don't make haste decisions. You can't divide family properties while you are still alive!" Lenny
tried to discourage him at once.
"Why not?"
"You just gave away half of your properties without thorough consideration. What about us? Felix,
Sherry, and I? Will you only leave the three of us and our children with half of your
properties?"
