Chapter 259 Your Precious Niece is not Simple
After the meeting, the Shelton family and the Ford family bade goodbye to everyone. Then Wayne took them to the airport. The Evans family left shortly afterwards.
Caroline was so worried about her sister that she rushed home to take care of her. When she arrived home, Caia was locking herself in the guest room. Caroline knocked on the door, and then Caia opened the door.
She smiled at her sister and said, “Big sis, I decided to be on three days of fasting. I need clarity from the Lord.” Caroline hugged her baby sister and replied, “I am so proud of you, Caia. I have faith that the Lord will come through for you.”
At His Grace Hotel, Mr Martins bade goodbye to the Taylor family, and then he left. However, he didn’t go back home because he didn’t want to see his wife. He decided to go to His Glory Hotel for a couple of days.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
When Mr Martins was resting in his Presidential Suite, he received a call from his son, Aiden. He smiled and said, “Hello, Aiden. Is everything alright? Yesterday, I tried to call you several times, but it went straight to voicemail.”
Aiden replied, “I am sorry, Daddy, about that. Mom, take my phone away after we arrive home. She also forbade me to use the landline to call you. Daddy, do you mind if I work beside you to learn?
I was over the moon when you told me that you wanted to establish a company for me, but Mom asked me to turn you down. I regret loving Mom unconditionally because she doesn’t deserve my love. She has destroyed my life.
During breakfast, Lily asked my mother to divorce you, Daddy. When I tried to defend my family, Mom slapped me. I am tired of my mother choosing Lily over us.
I also want to move out and leave her with her precious niece. Sometimes I wonder if we are her biological children because she has never shown us any love or support. In her eyes, only Lily is her child.”
His father sensed that his son was so disappointed in his mother and asked, “Son, why don’t you come to His Glory Hotel for a couple of days to calm yourself down?
Your mother will always defend Lily because she is her late brother’s daughter.” Aiden was overjoyed when his father asked him to stay at His Glory Hotel. He quickly packed his luggage, then he headed downstairs.
He met his mother on the ground floor waiting for the lift. His mother was heading to her son’s bedroom to apologize for slapping him.
She looked at her son with a confused expression and asked, “Where are you going, Aiden?” Aiden looked at his mother and asked, “Didn’t you ask me why I am still staying at home? I decided to take your advice and leave your house.
I don’t care anymore, Mom. Should you want to divorce my father, go ahead, but don’t regret it. Your precious niece is not simple.”
Then he dragged his luggage and left with a heavy heart. He never thought that one day his beloved mother would chase him away from his home because of Lily. His heart was overwhelmed with bitterness.
Her mother was so shocked she didn’t see it coming. She wanted to run after her son and stop him from leaving.
She took a few steps towards him, but Lily grabbed her arm. She hid her hatred in her eyes and said, “Auntie, don’t worry. Aiden will come back when he calms himself down.”
She was overjoyed when she saw Aiden leave his home. After her aunt’s divorce was finalized, she would ask her aunt to transfer the mansion to her name. Then she would chase her aunt away.
She looked at her aunt with eyes full of tears and said, “Auntie, my face is painful. Please take me to the hospital.”
Her aunt looked at her niece with concern on her face and replied, “I am sorry, my precious niece. I do have a swelling ointment in my bedroom. Let’s go.” Then Lily pressed the second-floor button.
In the blink of an eye, it was Wednesday. The Taylor family was in the dining room eating. Mrs Taylor told everyone that Caia would be leaving the following day.
After Avery had finished washing the dishes, she went to Aunt Caia’s room to see her. Caia smiled brightly at her and said, “I am sorry, my beautiful niece, that I will not be able to attend your betrothal ceremony.”
Avery smiled at her aunt-in-law and replied, “It is alright, Aunt Caia. Promise me that you will attend my wedding.” Caia nodded her head and said, “Absolutely I will be there. I will meet your mother and your brother at your wedding.”
Avery shook her head and replied, “I don’t think Aunt Elizabeth would be there because I don’t have a good relationship with her. My parents are married in name only. They can divorce anytime.”
When Aunt Caia heard Avery’s words her heart leaped with joy. When she was praying, she asked the Lord to take the pain away and remove the love she had for Mr Martins, to no avail.
Unbeknownst to her, the Lord had sent Avery to deliver the answer. She hugged Avery tightly and thanked her. She told Avery that she wanted to be alone to break the fasting with a prayer.
Avery smiled brightly at her, and then she left. A few minutes later, Caia headed to the kitchen in high spirits to eat. Her sister was still in the living room with her husband and her son.
John looked at his wife and said, “August is scared that his wife, Elizabeth, might embarrass us during the betrothal ceremony. I told him that he should divorce Elizabeth because she was such an embarrassment.
I was overjoyed when August told me that he would divorce Elizabeth after the wedding.” Caia was so happy when she heard her brother-in-law’s words and asked, “Brother-in-law, when is my nephew getting married?”
Her brother-in-law smiled brightly and replied, “They are getting married on the 15th of June, beautiful Caia. Are you done with your fasting?”
Caia was beside herself with excitement and said, “Yes, brother-in-law. I just broke my fasting and my prayers were answered.” She would confess her love to Mr Martins after her nephew’s wedding.
Caroline was so happy to hear that the Lord had answered her sister’s prayers. She made a silent prayer thanking the Lord. Caia held her sister’s arm and said, “Big sis, I am hungry.”
Caroline was overjoyed. She rushed to the kitchen and started plating for her baby sister. Caia told everyone that she wasn’t leaving anymore. Avery was over the moon. She liked Aunt Caia very much.
