Chapter 1155: Dad Is in Trouble
Balthazar Shaw...
Mason Nightshade understood the reason for Aurelia Shaw’s expression.
No matter how many mistakes Balthazar Shaw has made, in the end, he is Aurelia Shaw’s father, even if only in name.
Aurelia Shaw packed her luggage and booked a ticket online for a flight to Country Z tonight, while explaining the situation to Mason Nightshade, "The old butler from home called me, said he was on his way to the hospital for a checkup when he got into a car accident and was kidnapped by a group of people. The kidnappers haven’t made a call, so we don’t know who they are."
Upon saying this, Aurelia Shaw realized her hand was trembling slightly, then she chuckled self-deprecatingly, as the mocking smile quickly faded from her lips.
She continued in a calm voice to Mason Nightshade, "The Shaw Family has been in the business world for years, my father wasn’t a kind-hearted person, and he offended quite a few people. I haven’t been home for a while now, and the business isn’t as good as it used to be, even with Uncle Zhou’s assistance... Inevitably, some people want to take advantage of the situation, seeking revenge for past grievances."
Aurelia Shaw closed the suitcase, "I need to go back and check things out. I asked Sister Man to book a ticket for me, hopefully tonight. I..."
Aurelia Shaw spoke as she walked out.
At the door, Mason Nightshade grasped her wrist.
Aurelia Shaw looked at Mason Nightshade, his hand was warm, always able to envelop her cold heart, causing people to become infatuated and immersed.
"What’s the rush?" Mason Nightshade said, half critical and half indulgent, pulling over Aurelia Shaw’s suitcase. He dialed Gustavo Yates’ phone, "Prepare my private plane, yes, at the hotel where I’m staying, in half an hour on the roof... I’ll fly my plane, what’s the fuss! What’s Adrian Cooper for in the negotiation with M Nation? Go find him!"
Aurelia Shaw: "..."
Is there really such a domineering, unreasonable Major General?
Adrian Cooper probably becomes aggravated by him a hundred times a day.
Half an hour later, Mason Nightshade’s private plane landed on the rooftop of the Venus Hotel.
Aurelia Shaw briefly spoke to Caspian Parker on the phone, then hurriedly boarded the plane.
Mason Nightshade held her hand, pulled her to sit beside him, his slightly calloused large hand gripped hers, not letting go, occasionally squeezing her fingers.
Not sure if it was for comfort.
Yet, Aurelia Shaw’s anxious heart inexplicably calmed down at this moment.
Aurelia Shaw closed her eyes, her mind a bit chaotic, thinking of the Shaw Family, thinking of the father who cared little for her since childhood. She originally thought she had no feelings for Balthazar Shaw, but now recalling the scant memories, they were all of those few pitiful moments when he cared for her as a father.
Sigh...
Aurelia Shaw suddenly laughed.
Mason Nightshade looked at her, puzzled, thinking: Has this girl become confused from the rush? She was just in a murderous mood, how come she’s smiling now?
Aurelia Shaw said, "Actually, Balthazar Shaw is quite pitiful, he just doesn’t know how to treat me. His beloved woman’s child with another man, if it were me... I definitely would have strangled the child."
"What nonsense!" Mason Nightshade said sternly, "That’s not possible."
Aurelia Shaw’s heart felt warm, this wolf certainly wouldn’t create a lovechild with another woman, it’s indeed something she doesn’t need to worry about.
But she was speaking the truth.
A child of a rival constantly appearing in front of oneself, eating one’s food and drinking one’s drinks, isn’t that annoying... She started to understand Balthazar Shaw’s feelings.
And he wasn’t all that bad to her.
When she said she wanted to marry Mason Nightshade, without hesitation, he offered company shares as a deal to marry her into the Nightshade Family.
