You, Me and Our Genius Twins

Chapter 60 Nothing at All

He ended the call and massaged his temples before standing up and walking out of the study. His assistant cum bodyguard immediately greeted him. “The flight is ready, Young Master Sam.”NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

“Let’s go,” Sam uttered with a nod. Just moments before receiving Cedric’s call, he had received a call from Isabel. In the call, Isabel was sobbing uncontrollably. She told him that their father and brother had chased her out of the house. Sam was shocked to hear this—their father and Dan were the two people who were the fondest of Isabel. Sam suspected that there was something wrong with his hearing when he first heard that they had chased Isabel out.

Sam asked for a reason, but Isabel didn’t tell him anything. She simply cried and begged him to help her. He quickly comforted Isabel before ending the call and calling his father instead. However, his father wasn’t willing to explain anything in the call and insisted that they only talked after they met.

After that, Sam gave Dan a call. Dan was crying and cursing at the same time—it sounded like he was drunk. Something huge must have happened, Sam figured. Sam was worried, so he quickly ordered his men to prepare a private jet. He had handed his orders to his staff and was just about to leave when Cedric called him. He already told Cedric whatever he wanted to say, so it was up to Cedric whether Cedric wanted to take Sam’s advice. Crystal, Michael, Jonathan, and Joseph were all people who could handle their own issues, so Sam wasn’t too worried. He decided that he had to check on his own family instead.

The trip from Worrick to Dusktown took about two hours by flight. Sam found his father in the study once he arrived at their pied-à-terre. Nigel wore a dejected look on his face. It had only been a few days since Sam last met Nigel, yet Nigel looked like he had aged 10 years. “What is it, Dad? Did something happen?” Sam was shocked.

Nigel was a famous figure in the business industry—he was known for his exemplary looks, figure, skills, and charisma. Sam had always perceived his father to be a calm and determined individual. He had never seen his father this dejected and helpless in the past. Nigel didn’t say anything and simply passed the files on the table over to Sam. Sam hastily took the papers into his hands.

Upon reading the content of the paper, Sam finally understood what was going on. “That b*tch!” Sam cursed as he flung the documents onto the table. No wonder my dad is in such a bad state. He must feel disgusted. They had all thought that Bryan was Dan’s savior—that was why Nigel got married to the ugly and useless Phoebe. Nigel even had a daughter with Phoebe. In the end, all of it was just a scheme. Anyone in Nigel’s position would have been just as disgusted.

Nigel let out a bitter laugh. “Cameron was right. All of the Taylors are idiots!” If the public knew about this matter, Nigel would be the largest joke of the century. He would be the largest idiot, and his sister and brother-in-law would take second place. They would no longer be able to stand tall in front of others.

“You shouldn’t think about things that way, Dad. The ones who should feel guilty and embarrassed are Phoebe and Isabel. Both our family and my aunt’s family are merely victims.” Sam tried his best to comfort his father.

Nigel chuckled bitterly. “But people are going to laugh at us for being idiots!”

“We are just kind. We didn’t expect someone to be as evil as them,” Sam uttered as he gave his father’s shoulder a squeeze. “Dad, kind people like us would definitely empathize with our situation. Only the evil ones would laugh at us for being dumb. We don’t have to care about what evil people think.”

Nigel gazed up at his eldest son before laughing and shaking his head. “Forget it… I’m fine. I need some time to process this, but I’ll be fine in a few days… By the way, your uncle called earlier. He said that the DNA test results are out…”

“Are you talking about Uncle Michael and Madeline’s DNA test?” Sam asked.

Nigel nodded. “What did the results indicate?” Sam held his breath after asking the question.

“It’s no surprise.” Nigel sighed. “It has been proven that Madeline is your aunt and uncle’s biological daughter…” Nigel pinched the bridge of his nose as he let out a bitter laugh while shaking his head once more. “What is this? You know how Madeline spent the past years of her life in our household. How am I supposed to face Madeline in the future? How should I look your aunt in the eye?” Nigel slammed his fist against the table. “I hate this! I hate this so much! Phoebe and Cameron are both evil people. I’ll never let them go. I have to make sure that they suffer. I have to!”

“Madeline is a kind girl, Dad. She’d never blame you for this. We still have a lot of time, so we can compensate her in the future.” Sam soothed his father.

“You’re right. From now on, both you and Dan will have to take good care of Madeline. By the way, you shouldn’t let your Aunt Crystal find out about this matter for now. Your uncle still doesn’t know how to tell her about it. He’s really troubled by this matter, and he’s worried that your aunt’s heart might not be able to handle the truth. Sigh… What did us Taylors do in the past to deserve such bad karma?”

“I got it. I’ll give Madeline a call and ask her if she’s free to bring Joel and Quincy over for dinner sometime soon,” Sam uttered.

“Okay…” Nigel muttered. “Anyway, both Dan and I owe her an apology. Sigh…” Nigel heaved another long sigh before shaking his head. If he knew that Madeline was his niece, he would’ve taken better care of her. How did he end up making her suffer so much?

Then again, if they knew that Madelyn was his biological niece, Crystal and Michael would have treated her as their daughter from the very start. Then, Madeline would have never stayed in his home, and she would have never been bullied by Isabel.

“By the way, Dad. Isabel…” Sam thought about Isabel all of a sudden.

“I don’t want to hear this name now. I don’t want to see her either. Both she and Phoebe are evil women. Whenever I see her, I think of Phoebe. Both her and Phoebe are the reason I feel so ashamed!” Nigel waved his arm around weakly.

“I got it,” Sam replied gently. “I’ll arrange for her to study overseas.”

“You can do whatever you think is right. You should send her as far away as possible. It’d be better if she never returned. I never want to see her again!” Nigel hissed.

Sam let out a quiet sigh. I guess a part of Dad’s hatred for Isabel comes from his hatred toward Phoebe. He might not have loved Isabel as much as he loves Dan and me, but he still treated her with care. Now that he knows of Bryan’s evil scheme, he doesn’t even want to see Isabel at all. I guess it makes sense. Isabel used to bully Madeline all the time. Now that it’s proven that Madeline is Uncle Michael’s biological daughter, Dad would never forgive anyone who bullied Madeline in the past. Isabel and Phoebe are, of course, the two largest culprits. It’s definitely a good idea to send Isabel far, far away.

Upon leaving the study, Sam contacted Isabel to tell her his plan. “What? You want me to leave the country?” Isabel exclaimed in surprise. “I don’t want to leave, Sam! What would happen to my mother if I left? You need to help me, Sam. I don’t want to leave. I want to stay with my mother!”

If she left the country for a foreign place, she would be nothing at all. How could that be better than her staying home and living comfortably as the young lady of the Taylor Family?
