Chapter 290
Chapter 290
Once Colton was done reprimanding the bodyguards, he waved them off without saying much. "You're dismissed."
The bodyguards left without much fanfare.
After being insulted by Colton like that, Olivia's face twisted into an ugly expression. However, she held back and looked at him
calmly as she asked with squinted eyes, "What are you trying to do? Are you trying to piss Grandpa off?"
As Colton turned to face her, he pursed his lips and said, "Aunt, because you are older than me, I don't mean any disrespect.
However, Nicole and Hayden are my mother's guests. Therefore, I don't think it's acceptable for you to do this."
Her face changed as soon as she heard what he said. Then, she curled up her hand and pointed at Nicole accusingly, "Could it
be that you really want to accept this child as your own, Colton? You're the heir to the Gardner Family, and she is nothing! You
should find a woman that is on par with you!"
This made Colton's face turn dark; his following sentence was filled with displeasure as he spoke
coldly, "Aunt, for the sake of Grandpa, if you want to stay in the Gardner
Residence any longer, I'd advise you to keep quiet."
Immediately, Olivia's eyes widened in disbelief. Did he mean that she would be kicked out if she did not accept Nicole and her
son?
How absurd!
Was he choosing an outsider over her?!
At this moment, Anna had also come out. So, when she saw the scene in front of her, she could guess what was happening.
Thus, she stepped forward and stood in front of Olivia.
"I've told dad about Hayden and Nicole, and he has no objections. So, I think it's best that you leave our family affairs alone
now."
After she said this, she motioned Colton to bring both Nicole and Hayden in.
Colton nodded and quickly ushered the two into the
house.
At this point, Olivia's face was burning with anger. She initially wanted to step forward to stop them, but Anna blocked her.
By now, her eyes were bloodshot as she looked at Anna with gritted teeth and said, Anna, what the hell are you doing? Although
he is of
Colton's flesh and blood, honet
been living outside for years Who knows what he has become? Yet, you just allowed them into the
Gardner Family like this?!"
Olivia's questioning didn't provoke Anna as she answered with a polite smile,
"That is Colton's personal business. We shouldn't interfere."
"Do you know what that woman has in mind? What if she's here to use her son to rob us of our properties?" Olivia exclaimed
Finally, Anna's face darkened as she warned in a low voice, "Olivia, that's enough. Not everyone is as bad as you make them out
to be."
Once she was done speaking, she did not want to argue with Olivia any longer, so she turned around and left.
Inside, Colton held Hayden in one hand as he led the two into Benedict's ward.
All this while, Hayden's eyes were
opened wide as he looked at Colton;
his eyes
were filled with
expectations. Finally, after a while,
he muttered, "Uncle, are you really my father?"
This stupefied Colton as he did not expect Nicole to tell Hayden about this. He
paused for a moment before he nodded and agreed.
When Hayden saw this, he lowered
his gaze, and his face looked slightly upset. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Uncle, although. would love for you to be
my father, the woman just now is too fierce. She also tried to attack my mommy. Because of that, I will not accept you as my
dad!"
Although Nicole was amused by what she heard, she did not expect her son to be
so protective. He knew how to fend for himself at such a young age!
Colton did not expect these words to come out from Hayden as well, and he smirked.
"If your mommy marries me, I will protect her and protect you as well."
As his low, husky voice rang in the air, it somehow made Nicole blush!
