Chapter 292 She Doesn’t Like Me

Olivia looked at the sobbing Hayden, and her expression did not get better. Instead, she pointed at Nicole and said, “Dad, goodness knows where this b*stard came from, yet you’re allowing him to enter our house?! You’ve really been tricked!”

Benedict’s face became a little unpleasant after what he heard. He looked at her haughty and irrational appearance and retorted, “Olivia, since when did you become so arrogant and unreasonable? Is this what I’ve taught you to be?”

Hayden, who heard the anger in Benedict’s tone, stopped sobbing and sniffed, his eyes slightly red.

“G-Great Grandpa, you can’t put the blame on her. She doesn’t like me. That is why she treats me this way.”

Hayden’s pitiful yet sensible character pulled at people’s heartstrings.

Then, he took a deep breath and continued, “I know she looks down on me because I grew up without a father.”

After saying this, he leaned into Nicole’s arms and murmured, “Mommy, let’s go home. She doesn’t like me here.”

When Benedict noticed how rational Hayden was in comparison to Olivia, he was more than upset.

“What the hell are you doing?! We were chatting heartily before you came in and interrupted us!”

This turn of events was not what Olivia expected; she did not think that Benedict would speak on behalf of Nicole and her son. Hearing this, Olivia was even more upset, and she pointed to Nicole and Hayden, thereafter wailing, “They are not qualified to be a part of the Gardner Family at all!”

Benedict’s face sank when he heard this. He sat upright as his sharp eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared straight at her.

Then, he raised his voice and said, “Olivia Gardner, you’d better shut up and leave!”

This riled her up even more when she saw how he was standing on Nicole’s side.

“Dad, don’t be deceived by them. This woman is cunning. She must covet the Gardners’ properties. That is why she’s here. Colton is still so young. There are many more women out there that are suitable for him. Why—”

Before Olivia could finish speaking, Benedict interrupted her by picking up a pillow from the bed and throwing it at her.

At this point, his face was red with anger. “You ungrateful child! Get out!”

Colton noticed Benedict’s angry appearance and hurried over.

“Grandpa, don’t be upset. The doctor mentioned that you shouldn’t be so riled up during this time.”

Benedict was almost out of breath because of Olivia, and Colton had to quickly help him calm down.

Then, Colton looked up at Olivia coldly and said, “Aunt, the doctor warned that we shouldn’t provoke Grandpa at this time. If you really care about him, please leave.”

Initially, Olivia had more to say but upon hearing a violent cough from Benedict, she was shocked. This made her purse her lips and left without saying what was on her mind.

After watching Olivia leave, Hayden walked toward the old man and said, “Great Grandpa, don’t be angry.”

In the face of Hayden’s comforting words, Benedict turned to look at the child, noticing that his face was still stained with tears and his eyes were a bit red from crying.

Although Hayden had been wronged, he still came to comfort Benedict. The way this child was acting was pulling at his heartstrings.

Benedict took a deep breath as he looked at Hayden and said softly, “I’m not angry. Hayden, you’re such a good boy. I will teach that aunt a lesson.”

However, Hayden shook his head and said, “Actually, I don’t blame her. It’s normal for her to dislike Mommy and I.”

As Hayden said this, his eyes were downcasted, and there were still tears hanging on his long eyelashes. NôvelDrama.Org © content.

“If she doesn’t like you, then she can leave this place! Hmph!” Benedict was still enraged by what Olivia had said.
