Rural Belle & Three Heirs

Nicholas, who was in the Northwest, was absolutely livid after receiving the video.

He yelled at his butler, "The Martin Family has gone too far... Louis really has poor judgment. How could he have such a daughter-in-law?"

"She disagrees with the engagement, fine, just call it off. But to insult my granddaughter like this, who does she think she is?"

"I can't let this slide. What do you think we should do about this?"

Nicholas handed the phone to the butler, who watched the video and was equally furious.

Holding the phone, the butler sighed, "Mr. Davis, Miss Davis is truly pitiful... She's the precious child you've raised with such care. How could Anissa, that old woman, insult her like this?"

"This won't do. I'll go to Sovereign City right now and bring Miss Davis back."

"How could she endure the Martin Family's treatment? Miss Davis doesn't need them." Nicholas's butler, usually composed, was rarely this agitated.

"By the way, we need to send this video to Louis so he understands why we're calling off the engagement."

The butler reminded Nicholas.

Nicholas immediately agreed, "Yes, send it to him..."

"Tell him I'll be in Sovereign City in a couple of days. He should come over, too, so we can discuss the engagement."

"As soon as the engagement is called off, bring my granddaughter back..."

Nicholas said a lot, but his main point was clear: he didn't want Chloe to stay in Sovereign City and suffer any longer.

The butler calmed himself and began to analyze the situation.

"Mr. Davis, let's not act impulsively. I've heard that Miss Davis and Mr. Martin have developed strong feelings for each other. If we force her to come back, wouldn't we be breaking up a loving couple?"

The butler's words brought Nicholas back to his senses.

Indeed, Chloe and Grant were getting along well. If they called off the engagement because of Anissa, wouldn't that make Chloe even more upset?

Nicholas was torn between his love for his granddaughter and his desire to protect her from humiliation.

But Anissa's attitude towards Chloe was something Nicholas couldn't tolerate. Finally, Nicholas made his decision.

He personally called Louis.

"Louis, let me tell you, if your family thinks the marriage alliance with the Davis Family

is unsuitable, we can call off the engagement. It's not like our daughter has to marry into your family."

"Of course, if Grant still wants to be with my granddaughter, he can come to the Davis Family. Rest assured, I won't treat him the way your family does."

"That's it, goodbye."

Nicholas angrily finished his speech and hung up before Louis could respond.

On the other end, Louis was bewildered by the call.

He had no idea why Nicholas was so furious.

Until Nicholas had his butler send the video to Louis.

Louis watched the video with a dark expression, his aged face filled with anger.

He gritted his teeth, staring at the arrogant Anissa in the video, without saying a word.

Those who had been around Louis long enough knew that when he had this expression, it meant he was truly enraged.

After watching the video, Louis leaned on his cane and sat down.

He muttered, "Looks like she's been living too comfortably all these years!"

"I'm not dead yet, and the Martin Family isn't hers to control. Someone, arrange a

private jet. We're going to Sovereign City tomorrow."

"And, I remember Anissa has a few small companies that are still profitable? Cut off all their business!"

Louis issued his orders with authority.

Anissa didn't come from a high background. Back then, Louis was completely against Quentin having any relationship with her. But Anissa was young, beautiful, and cunning. She schemed to get pregnant with Grant.

For the sake of the Martin Family's bloodline, Louis pressured Quentin to marry her into the family.

Since she married into the Martin Family, Quentin never liked her. Even after Grant was born, Quentin never stepped into her room.

Their relationship had no foundation, and whenever they met, it was either arguing or fighting.

To secure her position in the Martin Family, Anissa used special means to get pregnant with twins, Michael and Liam.

After having three children, her position in the Martin Family was solidified.

But her relationship with Quentin grew colder. Quentin was always a playboy, surrounded by women. He didn't like Anissa, but under Louis's pressure and the constraint of three children, he didn't divorce her.

However, their years of separation were a fact.

Louis worried that Anissa had no support or security in the Martin Family, so he allowed Anissa's sister, Giselle, to work in the Martin group.

He even made her the head of the finance department.

That wasn't all. Louis also gave Anissa a few companies, guiding their operations to ensure they were profitable so that Anissa could have a more dignified life. Unexpectedly, despite his support, Anissa acted tyrannically in the Martin Family.

A daughter-in-law who dared to disregard him wasn't worth keeping.

Louis was furious.

Meanwhile, Grant, with a serious expression, brought Chloe back to his villa. He hadn't spoken a word the entire way.

Anissa's harsh words to Chloe felt like knives in his heart. He resented Anissa but didn't know how to face her.noveldrama

He felt sorry for Chloe and didn't want her to endure such humiliation.

Chloe hadn't expected Anissa to be like this. She felt she had overstepped, trying to mend her relationship with Anissa, but now...

Grant parked the car in the yard of his villa.

After parking, he got out, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and lit one.

Chloe got out of the car and walked over to him.

She reached out, timidly tugging at his sleeve, gently shaking his arm.

"Grant, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone to apologize to your mother."

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have had to argue with her."

"I... I just... I didn't expect this outcome, Grant. I just didn't want you to be caught between us."

Chloe was so upset that she was on the verge of tears.
