Chapter 828 Do You Think It&##x27;s Appropriate?

"Mr. Shaw, isn't this appropriate?"

Nicole looked somewhat gloomy.

Edwin looked at her and smiled, "Well? You don't even call me Grandpa?"

"I don't know if you are really my grandpa or not. How about this? Since my mother isn't here, I have
Aunt Martha here. Why don't I call her over to confirm your identity?"

When Nicole talked about Martha, Edwin's smile was replaced by an angry face.

"Don't mention that woman. She's not a Shaw."

"Mr. Shaw, you're wrong. She is my mother's biological sister. Since you said that you are my mother's
father, why aren't you my aunt's father?"

Nicole asked rhetorically.

Edwin looked even more sullen.

"Well! Have you ever think that they might have different fathers? Do you think I would let her be out
there if she really was a Shaw?"

"What do you mean?"

Nicole didn't catch Edwin at that moment.

Different fathers? What did he mean? Did Edwin mean that Grandma cheated on another man? And
Martha was not Edwin's child?



It seemed that the answer only made sense in this way, but Nicole felt that it was impossible no matter
what.

In Edwin's time, how could a woman have guts to cheat on her husband? Moreover, just looking at
Edwin, everyone could conclude that he did not seem to tolerate women cheating on him. Since he
knew that Martha was not his own daughter, why did he keep Martha and her mother for so many
years?

Of course, Nicole did not ask these questions, but she was puzzled.

Edwin had no scruples about Nicole. He said angrily, "Back then, when I went out on a mission, I left for
three years. After returning, I found she had been pregnant. Well, I'm not at home, so how could she
get pregnant? No matter what I asked, she refused to answer me, nor did she deny that the child was
not mine. If it wasn't for my reputation, I wouldn't have kept her and the child. Later, it was also her own
initiative to propose a divorce. Her only condition for divorce was to take that child away. She didn't
want anything from the Shaws, not even our daughter. How will you judge such a woman, and who
cares the daughter she has educated? I, Edwin Shaw, will never deceive a little girl like you."

Nicole thought that it was better that she remained silent, so she didn't say anything more.

Seeing that Nicole was silent, Edwin asked coldly, "Why are you silent? No more questions? Or will you
do as I say?"

"What is your relationship with Laurel? Why did you save her? If you've been paying attention to me,
you should know that there are too many grudges between us. Furthermore, don't you know what she
wants to do with the Miller family? Since you can live here, you must be a retired contributor to the
military. Such being the case, why do you still do this?"

"I don't need to tell you why. You don't need to know either. Just do as I say."



Edwin did not intend to talk too much to Nicole.

However, Nicole shook her head and said, "You know Samuel, but why don't you look for him?"

"That brat had a most terrible temper. No one can persuade him. But you're an exception. He really
dotes on you. You probably don't know that Samuel has transferred all his property to you. Do you
know that you're the richest person in the world now? He's working for you."

"What?"

Nicole was completely stunned.

Didn't he give her a portion? How could it be all his property?

Edwin looked at Nicole and smiled, "This brat is also spoony over you. If it weren't for his family, he
might be able to develop better than you now. However, forget it. Everyone has their own way to live.
Do you agree it or not?"

"I can't agree!"

Nicole's decision froze Edwin's smiling face.

"What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly!"

"I said I couldn't agree. Whether it was because of me or others, Samuel would not do that. Moreover,
Laurel deserved it. You should know that. I don't understand. If you know that she is unforgivable, why
do you insist that we release her so that she can endanger others? Besides, I can't find any reason to
persuade Samuel to let Laurel go. She has too many lawsuits involving human lives. It's not that it's
fine if we don't pursue it. So, Mr. Shaw, there's nothing I can do about it. "

Nicole was about to get up and leave when she heard Edwin throw the teacup away.



The water in the teacup splashed all over the ground, and Nicole frowned slightly. What an old man
with a bad temper!

However, she did not compromise at all. Instead, she paused for a minute before raising her foot and
leaving again. However, she heard Edwin say coldly, "If you don't agree, once you walk out of this room
now, I guarantee that you will never see your mother again in your lifetime!"

"What are you talking about?"

Nicole suddenly stopped and turned around to look at the old man in front of her in disbelief.

Edwin didn't seem to be joking at all. Instead, he played a video on his phone and threw it at Nicole.

In the video, Audrey was trapped in a room surrounded by guards. She was anxious to get out, but
ended up in vain.

Outside the room, Nicole saw a familiar figure.

It was Morgan!

Why was Morgan at Audrey's place?

She suddenly felt that the scenery here was a little familiar, but she couldn't remember anything for a
moment.

Seeing her like this, Edwin said coldly, "Don't you remember where it is? Do you remember that you
went to a small town in Bordeaux and chased after Morgan for a long time, but you didn't catch up to
her in the end?"

Nicole suddenly remembered everything.



Edwin continued, "Morgan went out to buy food for your mother that day. She happened to meet you.
She was afraid that you might know her whereabouts, so she left quickly. I didn't expect you to catch up
with her. If it weren't for my help, she would have been caught up by you. Do you have any impression
now?"

Nicole was indescribably sad.

It turned out that she was only one step away from her mother. She was so close to Audrey!

If she had kept searching, if she could search thoroughly, would she have rescued her mother?

But what should she do now?

Her mother was far away in Bordeaux, and she couldn't save her!

Nicole's eyes instantly became a little wet.

"Why? She's your daughter! Your biological daughter! How can you treat your own daughter like this
just for Laurel?"

"Because she didn’t listen to me, just like you! If she had listened to my words and done what I told her,
she wouldn't be like this. Back then, I disapproved of her relation with that Don. She insisted on going
her own way. In the end, she was hurt badly. She went abroad to treat her injuries alone and had been
away for so many years. I thought she had put down. But even if she returned to the Seapolis City, she
didn't come to see me. She didn't even give me a call when she left. She also didn't tell you about me.
Are these a daughter should do? "

Edwin was also angry. It seemed that he was especially mad when he talked of Audrey.

Nicole looked at him sarcastically and said, "If you really are a competent father, how could my mother
pass through her home but not enter? How could she not tell me about your existence? My mother has



a sense of right and wrong with positive values. She will not listen to you no matter what you say just
because you are her father. Neither will I. So are you going to put me under house arrest, like what you
did to my mother? "

"If you don't listen to me, I may do so."

Edwin did not conceal his intentions at all.

Nicole felt that Audrey was a little pitiful.

Audrey had lost her mother's love at a very young age, and her only father was so arrogant, stubborn,
and even somewhat unreasonable. How did she go through all these years?

Nicole missed Audrey even more.

"Alright, if you insist on doing so, just lock me up with my mother."

Nicole's words irritated Edwin.

"You'd rather be locked up than agreeing, right?"

"Yes!"

"Alright, I'll satisfy you! But do you think that I can't do anything else if I lock you up? You're pregnant
with Samuel's child now. Even if you don't plead for mercy, as long as you're in my hands, I don't
believe that brat is disobedient!"

Hearing what Edwin said, Nicole immediately understood.

"You're threatening him with me, aren't you?"



"You can say that. If you agree, you are still my good granddaughter. Everything is fine between us. If
you don't, I can only force Samuel to agree. No matter what, Laurel must come out!"

Hearing Edwin's words, Nicole shook her head with a bitter smile.

"Why are the people who hurt and persecuted me always my relatives? Do you all feel that with
kinship, I will surrender and listen to you? Or do you really think that this kinship can be invincible? You
are always using my kindness to force me to do something that I don't want to do. You keep saying that
you are my family, but what you do hurts me every time. How can you talk about 'good granddaughter'
with me? "

Edwin was embarrassed with Nicole’s words.

"This is my first time coming to you!"

"That's right. This is the first time you've come to me and forced me like this. You even want to use me
to coerce Samuel into doing something unreasonable. Do you think it's appropriate?"

"I don't care if it's appropriate or not, I just want Laurel out! By the way, I forgot to tell you. I've already
had Bella and Cornell released on bail. Unfortunately, their son is an idiot. He insists on investigating
me. I can only let him stay in the hospital for a few days. You don't have to worry. He won't die. After all,
only with him, Bella will listen to me. If you still refuse, it's hard to say whether your best friend will get
home safely. "

Nicole was finally enraged.

She suddenly took a step forward and glared at Edwin coldly, saying word by word, "It's fine if you hurt
me. If you dare to hurt Olivia, I won't let you get away with it!"

"Really? Then I want to see what you can do to me."



After Edwin finished speaking, he directly grabbed Nicole's wrist.

Nicole felt her entire arm go numb, and she was unable to use any strength at all.
