Chapter 1947: Chapter 435: Daughters Are Better, They Get Taken Home
After pausing for a moment, Hua Nuan added: "No, it should be said that it was guided by you, Madam, since you were the one who fought for Huo Si’s management rights back then."
Hua Nuan’s smile was bright, but her innocent words were like sharp blades piercing straight into Isabella.
Isabella’s face looked extremely unpleasant.
Hua Nuan curled her lips, feeling a bit better seeing Isabella’s disgruntled expression.
"By the way, Huo Si came knocking today, acting all arrogant, as if he couldn’t wait for the Huo Family to perish."
Isabella: "..."
Isabella was at a loss for words in response to what Hua Nuan had said.
Huo Zun slightly curled his lips as he watched the little girl’s sharp tongue.
Just like Jian Ran, Hua Nuan was the kind of person who always retaliated and never let anyone take advantage easily.
It was getting late, and Huo Zun didn’t want to argue with Isabella for too long, so he pursed his thin lips.
"Grandma, it’s getting late. If you don’t have anything important, I’ll arrange for someone to take you back first."
"Butler, send the old lady back."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
"Wait, Huo Zun, I don’t want to go back."
Isabella looked at Huo Zun’s distant and cold manner and said, "Huo Zun, I want to ask if you have any feasible strategies. Otherwise, at this rate, Huo Si might use Europe’s power to swallow you up."
After all, he was the grandson she valued.
Until the critical moment, Isabella really didn’t want to listen to Huo Si’s words and make a choice between him and Huo Zun.
"I just told you that Huo Si has blocked all paths. I don’t have any good strategies. You can see that the Huo Family’s stocks are clearly falling, and the Huo Family is gradually entering a desperate situation."
"Grandma, are you planning to help me out?"
Huo Zun raised an eyebrow and asked back. Seeing Isabella’s evasive eyes, a faint smirk crossed his lips.
Isabella felt a bit embarrassed and extremely uneasy.
She couldn’t respond to Huo Zun’s direct question.
After all... she had to weigh the pros and cons.
If she wanted to help Huo Zun, she would undoubtedly have to go against Huo Si.
Currently, the most powerful person was Huo Si. If she offended him, there was no hope of revitalizing the Huo Family.
Hua Nuan looked at Isabella’s hesitant demeanor, and the sarcasm in her heart spread.
It was really over the top.
What kind of grandmother was she?
Not wanting to help her own grandson, still hesitating here, weighing the pros and cons.
Hua Nuan felt a bit of sadness and melancholy inside, knowing that Huo Zun’s heart must be feeling heavy as well. She slowly reached out and held Huo Zun’s large hand, intertwining their fingers intimately, to soothe the man’s inner anger.
As Huo Zun felt the warmth in his palm, the woman’s soft little hand, and met Hua Nuan’s hopeful beautiful eyes, he slightly curled his thin lips.
With the little girl by his side, this life was enough.
Huo Zun pursed his lips, and his words were more distant than before, calm as water.
"If, Grandma, you don’t want to help and don’t plan to do anything, then please go back."
Isabella saw that Huo Zun was clearly determined, and her heart felt unsettled.
"Huo Zun..."
Huo Zun tugged at his mouth upon hearing this.
"Indeed, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. I once thought that you were the only family I had left in this world. As it turns out, that’s not the case. Since you’ve chosen Huo Si, please make sure to teach him how to take responsibility."
Listening to Huo Zun’s resolute words, Isabella couldn’t help but refute: "Grandma really doesn’t have any options, the Huo Family now desperately needs someone to rejuvenate it. You’re unwilling to help me, but Huo Si has promised to help me."
Hearing this, Hua Nuan sarcastically said: "Madam, your words are really morally coercive. Back then, the Huo Family owed Huo Zun and Huo Zun’s mother Yang Ruo. Now you’re asking for help, isn’t that a bit unreasonable?"
"Moreover, just because people don’t want to be morally coerced by you, you call it an excuse. It’s truly unreasonable."
Seeing Hua Nuan’s provocative manner, Isabella coldly said: "Hua Nuan, don’t be presumptuous."
Both Huo Zun and Huo Si had feelings for the little girl, and Isabella had long wanted to lose her temper but hadn’t found the right opportunity yet.
"It’s not me being presumptuous, but Madam’s words lack reason. If an elder doesn’t convince others with reason, how can the younger be sincerely convinced?"
Hua Nuan’s words were full of provocation, and Isabella’s face looked unpleasant.
"Since you two couples are saying this, I originally intended to help you, but now that idea has been wholly thwarted by your actions. Let it be this way for now... I’m leaving."
Saying this, Isabella angrily headed toward the villa’s entrance.
Hua Nuan looked at the woman’s back and coldly said: "Madam, if I were you, the first thing I would worry about is not the development of the Huo Family but whether my descendants have gone astray. You are well aware of Huo Si’s actions. Whether they are reasonable and legal, I think... you know better than anyone."
The message had been delivered.
Hua Nuan said no more, successfully seeing Isabella’s steps pause, knowing the woman had taken in her words.
Hua Nuan raised her hand and rubbed her brow.
This Isabella really had some nerve. Clearly, she didn’t want to help, yet she insisted on laying the blame on her and Huo Zun.
...
After Isabella left, Hua Nuan successfully noticed that Huo Zun’s expression was a bit serious. She pursed her lips slightly, speaking quietly: "Huo Zun, are you okay?"
"Mm, I’m fine."
He had experienced the harm given by the Huo Family to him and Yang Ruo more than once.
He was long accustomed to it.
Seeing the young girl’s beautiful eyes full of worry for him, Huo Zun reached out and brought the woman into his arms, his thin lips moving.
"No need to worry, your presence has already filled the void in my past life, and I feel very complete now."
Hearing the man’s words, Hua Nuan felt warm inside.
Nestled in the man’s embrace, Hua Nuan said with pursed lips: "Hmm, okay, I’ll give you a whole bunch of sons..."
Huo Zun’s expression darkened immediately upon hearing the words ’a bunch of sons.’
"Little Nuannuan, I think it would be better for you to give me a dozen daughters."
Hearing the man’s disdain for a son, Hua Nuan spoke without much humor: "What have sons ever done to you? Why do you disdain them so much?"
"Because daughters are so great. Look at Tang Bao, so young, she’s already been taken home by the Qin Family. There’s no need to raise her now; Qin Jin and Qin Song of the Qin Family have their hearts set on her."
Hua Nuan: "..."
Alright.
Being overpowered by Huo Zun.
