I'm Richer Than My Billionaire ex-husband

Chapter 881 Not like a sister

At this moment, Nancy only felt as if a large slit had been opened up in her heart, and it hurt so much that her heart twisted in pain.

In the midst of Barney's indifference, and Miriam's warning, she could only leave reluctantly.

Miriam said to Nellie, "Keep Barney company."

"Okay."

Miriam nodded and walked away.

Barney and Nellie were the only two people left in the ward, and Nellie looked at Barney with query in her gaze.

Barney's scalp tingled at her gaze, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Nellie, "The way Nancy is looking at you is not like the way a sister looks at her brother."

Especially in terms of attitude, this is definitely beyond the kind of concern that a sister has for her brother, Nellie would never believe there is no problem in this. Barney froze.

And then his gaze dimmed.

Nellie felt this subtle change in him and naturally knew the situation, "Say it, what is going on?"

She wanted to know exactly what was going on.

Nancy has been not only giving her a strong sense of hostility, more, in fact, there is the danger.

Nancy was trying to get rid of her at all times, as if she would steal Barney, and that made her unhappy.

Barney said to her in a doting tone, "A woman's intuition really can't be ignored."

Nellie raised her eyebrows, "Am I wrong?"

Is it possible that what she feels is really not wrong?

At this moment, although Barney did not explicitly say so, Nellie clearly felt that things were not as simple as she thought.

"She likes you? How can that be?" They were brother and sister.

Nellie felt that in terms of relationship, Andre was already the most heart-wrenching she had ever seen, but she didn't expect such a perverted emotion to exist. Barney, "Nancy was not born to my mother, she is my aunt's adopted daughter."

So she should be a cousin, not actually related at all.

"Then why is she at your house?"

"My aunt died in a car accident with her husband when she was ten years old, she was my aunt's nominal daughter, so my mother took her to my home." So that was the case.

Externally, she is Barney's sister, yet internally, Nancy has long developed feelings for Barney.

It was not a good thing for her.

Barney grabbed her hand, "Don't worry, I will take care of Nancy."

"What are you going to do about it? Throw her out of the house?" Nellie grunted.

Now that it happened, it would not really that easy to resolve.

Barney knew what she was thinking, and since he had already come off the operating table alive because of her, then he would not allow her to back out. Taking a deep breath, he sighed, "When I get better, I'll go live with you in Shirling."

"What?"

Is this really possible?

And the Brooks family...

Barney knew what she was thinking, "Why? Are you touched?"

She was indeed touched.

But at the same time, she felt that she had a lot of trouble on her own, like that bastard Andre, they couldn't live in peace even after going to Shirling, right? The thought of the trouble on each of them started to make Nellie think of backing out.

Before Barney, she and Andre had feud, and by letting go of Andre, she realised that it was actually better for people to live a simple life.

Yet now Barney was in a heap of trouble, which made her instinctively want to run away.

"What's in your mind?" Seeing that Nellie didn't say anything, Barney asked.

Nellie, "I... I..."

"Want to escape? It's too late."

Seeing that Nellie was torn and unable to speak, Barney interrupted her.

Nellie, "... "

Barney said to her, "Nellie, everyone in this world has different levels of trouble and things to do, you can't just run away from them."

Even if she escaped him, the people and things she met later might be even more problematic.

But whatever the trouble, as long as there was no problem with the two people themselves, then there wouldn't be any problem. The biggest problem was the one between her and Andre.

Nellie still grunted, "I don't like troubles."

It's just as well she didn't know what it was like to be simple before, but now that she does, she doesn't want to be so bothered. Barney smiled with an irresistible warmth, "Didn't you tell me before that you loved me very much? Now you think I am troublesome?"

Embarrassment flashed across Nellie's face.

Earlier it was to give him the intention to live and live well, but this man used it to ridicule her.

"Have you seen the gift yet?" Barney asked.

And as soon as the gift was mentioned, Nellie remembered at this time that Barney had given her a box when he came out of the operating room earlier. She never opened it because she was so worried about him.

"No."

"Want to see it then?"

Nellie nodded and got up to get her bag, then took out the flannel box.

And then she walked towards Barney and asked, "Is it a ring?"

"That's not the time to give a ring."

The flannel box does look like a box for a ring, but Barney said it is not.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Proposing outside the ward was actually quite special.

"What's it?" Nellie did not open it immediately, but asked Barney.

She was really curious to know what kind of gift Barney had given her right after he came out of the operating room.

And all the time she was made to wait outside the operating theatre.

Barney didn't answer her question directly, but only said, "Open it and take a look."

Nellie didn't hesitate and opened the box straight away.

When taking a closer look, it appears to be a pendant? A pendant made from a bullet? "This is?"

Nellie was speechless with surprise.

Barney said, "It has been at my heart for nearly ten years, and by giving it to you, I am giving me to you."

Nellie's heart was tugged hard.

She didn't expect Barney to be so moving when she spoke of love words.

He had always acted like a gentleman before, behaving in a courteous manner. She thought he was warm and gentle, but she never thought he would have such a romantic side. "How did you do that?" Nellie asked.

He was in the operating theatre at the time and when he came out of it, he was full of weakness, so how on earth did this work?

Barney, "One of the medical assistants is good at this."

It was improvised.

When Barney said he wanted to keep it, that medical assistant came forward at that time and said that it could be made into a pendant for his favourite person.

Barney thought the offer was good and agreed to it, he didn't expect Nellie to like it.
