Billionaire’s Missing Darling

Chapter 735

Salena seemed to have no intention of talking about her divorce. No matter how Joshua asked, she avoided the topic and only said that she was going back to her country soon.

She requested Joshua to find someone to take over the matters overseas. She needed to rest for some time.

Joshua’s face was cold. He knew that his granddaughter had a stubborn temper. Once she decided on something, there was no way to change her mind, so he didn’t bother to ask further.

But he pointed out one thing. “You’re in your thirties. I don’t care about your personal matters. Whether you get married or get a divorce is up to you. But there’s one thing. Nina is the Phil family bloodline. You have to bring her back.”

Seeing that Joshua was getting angry, Salena took his arm and said in a childlike tone, “Grandpa, Nina is raised by his father. She’s not used to being with me.”

Joshua said with a frown, “I strongly doubt the Dale family’s upbringing. I don’t think it’s a good choice to have them raise Nina. It’s fine if it’s an aristocratic family. Even if it’s not, as long as it’s a good family and the parents are reasonable, I’m okay with Nina living with them.

“However, the Dale family…”

Joshua could not continue.

It was hard to explain the Dale family in a few words. It was merely because Salena insisted on marrying Nina’s father that Joshua reluctantly made a compromise.

“Aren’t you afraid that they will have a bad influence on Nina?” Joshua looked straight at Salena.

Salena was taken back for a moment before she said with a smile, “Nina’s living with her father, after all. I’m sure you’re worried about nothing, Grandpa.”

Joshua was furious, but he could not persuade her stubborn granddaughter.

There were too many lousy things happening before his birthday.

First, there was lan getting married without informing him. Then, there was the issue of the third branch… Now, even his proudest granddaughter was divorced.

Joshua let out a long sigh, his face etched with worry.

He was not in the mood. He waved his hand and dismissed everyone, expressing his willingness to stay alone.

Kelly followed Ian out and asked curiously, “Ian, do you know what’s going on with the Dale family? It seems like Grandpa has an issue with them.”

Ian frowned and said calmly, “I don’t know much about it. I only know that the Dale family’s reputation is bad. Willard Dale, Salena’s ex-husband, is an illegitimate son. His mother was a mistress. Because she raised him outside for more than ten years, he grew sensitive and self-abased.

“When he was engaged to Salena back then, he held himself aloof and thought that the Phil family looked down on him, so he never showed himself at the Phil family.

“They’d been married for four to five years but he hasn’t come even once.”

Kelly found it unbelievable and lamented, “That’s too much. He should at least make a compromise for his wife.”

Ian shook his head. “I don’t know about that. He has always lived overseas. It’s said that he’s a painter. It’s for him that Salena has been overseas all year round.

“The divorce must have taken a toll on her, so she came back for some time.”

Kelly nodded. Suddenly, she thought of the Nina that Joshua mentioned. She asked with concern, “Since Willard is so stubborn, how can Salena leave Nina to him? Isn’t she worried that he will set a bad example for the kid?”

“Maybe she has her concerns.” Ian was not very interested in Salena’s matter. He casually answered and held Kelly’s hand as they walked out.

“Tomorrow is Grandpa’s birthday banquet. I’ll bring you to see the gifts I’ve prepared.” Ian had prepared many gifts, some of which had already been delivered to the Phil family, and some had just been shipped over and were still outside.

Ian wanted to bring Kelly to take a look and share his joy. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“What did you prepare?” Kelly asked excitedly.

She had also prepared a gift for Joshua. She wondered if he would like it.

“You’ll know when you see them.” Ian tapped the tip of Kelly’s small nose.
