Chapter 96 A Call From The Moore Family
“Mom, are you back home? What did dad say?”
“Nothing much, he was just throwing a tantrum. We aren’t getting divorced. Your dad’s just angry since
his specialty counter is facing some problems. Don’t worry about me, you can stay there for as long as C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
you want.”
“Mom, I’ve persuaded Madame Moore to return to Mainland. When we arrive, we will live in the
Moore’s Manor. The specialty counters that were rejected by Bryan Moore? They will rise again once
we return. Mom, hold on for a little while longer, I will be back soon.” Sabina said confidently to her
mother.
As Olivia Thomas heard her daughter’s words, she can’t help but cry in joy. She covered her mouth to
not let her weeping voice slip out.
After some time, a woman’s voice was heard from Sabina Thomas’ side, “Go in and look after him.”
“Got it.” Sabina said to that voice, and quickly hung up the call.
Just then, Butler Hood came back from outside the house, “Mrs. Thomas, I’ve already called the
ambulance.”
Olivia’ head fell to her side, and she immediately fainted.
The next day, Bryan was woken up by the noise of his phone vibrating on the nightstand.
He reached for his phone and looked at the screen. The instant he saw the name on the screen, his
expression darkened.
Without hesitation, he hung up the call. As he looked at Shirley Thomas, who was still sound asleep,
his dark expression slowly turned gentle.
The way she scolded him resembled that of an angry cat, and the way she slept also resembled that of
a cute kitten.
She’s his very own cat, and she could never escape from his grasp.
The phone rang again.
Bryan frowned unhappily as he heard the vibration again.
It was around seven that time. For him, if he was able to sleep for the whole night, and wake up at
seven, he’d consider that a very good night’s sleep. That day, however, he hoped that no one was
going to disturb him and Shirley.
He checked his phone again, and saw that it’s Jordan Hill this time.
Bryan deduced that it must be about stuff at work, or else Jordan would never call him at this time.
He sluggishly got down from the bed, walked to the balcony and picked up his call.
“Yes?”
“Mr Moore, Madame Moore called us just now.”
Bryan clenched his fingers and took on a dark expression again.
Jordan added, “She wants us relaunch the specialty counters from the Thomas family that we
previously rejected. Other than that, she also wants us to relinquish the ownership of the auction house
at South area to Miss Thomas.”
Upon hearing that, Bryan got extremely angry.
He was going to strangle whoever mentioned Sabina in his face, let alone suggesting that he go
against his own principles, even if the one asking him was the woman-in-charge of the Moore Family.
“Alright, got it.” said Bryan coldly.
Confused, Jordan asked him, “Mr Moore, what are we going to do?”
“If George Thomas wants it, give it to him.”
“Then, how do we deal with the auction house in South area ? From what I understand, that auction
house will be used by Master to hold the perfume auction. If its ownership is given to Miss Thomas,
Master will be unable to hold the auction.”
“Sabina Thomas!” Bryan said her name one by one, angrily, “Where the hell is she now?”
Madame Moore had always thought very highly of herself. How did she know Sabina, who reigned from
a small family?
It seemed that in the same period that he got close to Shirley, Sabina had made her moves.
“Miss Thomas had been healing her wounds in Africa.”
“Which hospital is she in?”
“Earl Edwards!” Jordan suddenly recalled something, and he said in a shock tone, “They are also at
Earl Edwards!”
“These days, keep your eyes on Sabina and her child.”
Having said that, Bryan hung up his call, went back into his bedroom. Shirley slept soundly on her side,
and her left hand was pressed under her chest.
He shifted his gaze on her left hand.
His brows furrowed again, walked towards Shirley, grabbed her left arm and flipped her body over.
The back of her hand was red, with some blisters on her wound. A few of the blisters were broken
when she flipped around on the bed, and the wound was stained with disgusting pus.
He grudgingly grabbed and shook her hand, and said, “Paisley, wake up!”
If that hand was left untreated, its condition was only going to worsen.
Shirley sensed that someone was calling her. She opened her eyes and saw that Bryan was squatting
in front of her.
And her left hand was being held onto by Bryan.
He saw that she’s still sleepy-minded, and said in a gentle tone, “Come on, get up. I’ll bring you to the
hospital after breakfast. There are blisters on your wound.”
Shirley heard what he said, sat up straight immediately and looked at the back of her hand.
At that point, her white hand could be described as being absolutely dreadful. It was red and swollen,
with some blisters sprinkled on top, some of the blisters had even popped.
She sighed, frowned and said, “Oh no, I didn’t expect it’d be this bad.”
“I should had brought you to the hospital last night. I will not allow you to be stubborn anymore. Hurry
and get up.” Bryan said, as he saw her pained expression. He’s pitying her even more thanks to that.
This time, Shirley did not decline his offer, and got up to wash herself.
She tried her best to not use her left hand for anything to prevent breaking more blisters.
After that, she got to the hall on the first floor, and she heard Scarlett Moore’s angry voice coming from
the living room. She turned around and saw that Scarlett was tossing a phone handset.
Jasmine Gomez was right next to her, and comforting Scarlett by patting her in the back.
Shirley witnessed that, she took out a perfume from her bag while walking towards them.
“Madame Moore!” She called out to her.
Scarlett and Jasmine turned and saw her, they were both unable to hide their unhappiness that came
from the phone call in time.
Especially Jasmine, who lowered her head unnaturally as Shirley approached them.
Shirley sensed that something’s not right, raised her brows in confusion and asked, “Madame Moore, is
something wrong?”
Scarlett waved her hands, and replied, “Nah, it’s nothing. Just a bunch of disobedient kids, I’ll get over
it in a minute. Come and sit next to me.”
Scarlett put on her happy face, and patted the empty seat next to her.
Shirley walked there and placed the perfume in front of her, and said, “This is the perfume you used
last time.”
She put some perfume on her palm and let Scarlett take a sniff.
Scarlett sniffed the perfume. The fragrance was not as strong as other perfumes on the
market,and she had to pay attention in order to capture the fragrance.
She felt peaceful and happy after smelling the perfume.
Then, she saw Shirley’s hand and asked, “Bryan said that your hand was hurt, he’s waiting for you in
the dining hall. You should hurry and have your breakfast, I’ll get him to get you to a hospital
later.”
