Married the Sick Uncle – Just Waiting to Inherit His Fortune

Chapter 83: Chapter 83: The Fate of Sylvia Warren

It was just like when they were together—she had secretly wished for his death, yet she had always feigned concern.

Nathan Fawcett said, "Yes, he did. He said if I ever saw you, I was to tell you that you could find someone you love and spend the rest of your life with them. He didn’t mind you getting together with Charles Prescott."

Anne Sutton looked at the man before her in disbelief. "Did he really say that?"

Nathan Fawcett nodded. "Yes. After he was gone, weren’t you with Charles Prescott, Ms. Sutton? I heard you couldn’t even save his child. But he wouldn’t blame you. He has no right to stop you from living the life you want; after all, he’s dead. It’s just..."

Anne Sutton listened to Nathan Fawcett’s words. He spoke as an observer, but his words made her heart ache.

The child, in particular, was a constant ache in her heart.

It was true. She hadn’t been able to save their child.

Anne Sutton looked at Nathan Fawcett and asked, "Just what?"

She wanted to hear the rest of what he had to say.

Nathan Fawcett said, "You were so fond of Charles Prescott, so why have I heard he’s getting engaged to another woman? You came to Veridia this time because of that, didn’t you, Ms. Sutton?"

Anne Sutton was a little surprised. "You know about Charles Prescott’s situation too?"

Nathan Fawcett nodded. "I do."

"Why are you paying so much attention to him?"

Nathan Fawcett looked at Anne Sutton and fell silent for a moment.

His mother had no interest in the Fawcett Family’s affairs. In the years since his father passed away, the Prescotts—father and son—had been in charge of everything.

Nathan Fawcett hadn’t intervened precisely because it would displease his mother.

When Anna Linden married Chairman Fawcett back then, her family had strongly disapproved.

At that time, Chairman Fawcett was just a capable man from an ordinary family.

She and Chairman Fawcett attended the same school. After they got together, her family objected, so she gave up everything at home to be with him.

She even defiantly told her father that she hadn’t made a mistake in her judgment.

However, the reality was that she had alienated her father, only for things to not end well.

After getting together with Chairman Fawcett, she bore him two children, but he barely cared for them and even had affairs with other women.

She, a woman of such pride, had trusted him with all her heart...

But later, she came to regret it!

In truth, no matter how good you are to a man, he will never remember your kindness.

He’ll only think: ’You love me so much because I’m just that charming!’

Only after seeing the scumbag for who he truly was did Anna Linden return to the Linden Family.

Although Chairman Fawcett was capable, successfully establishing the Fawcett Group and becoming one of the country’s largest and most famous auto manufacturers, it was nothing compared to the Linden Family.

Anna Linden was the Linden Family’s only daughter, so now that her father was old, the new Family Head was Nathan Fawcett.

As for the Fawcett Family’s affairs, she had no interest and wouldn’t let Nathan Fawcett get involved.

Naturally, Nathan Fawcett did not meddle in the Fawcett Group’s business.

If he hadn’t seen Anne Sutton last night, why would he have paid any attention to the news of Charles Prescott coming to Veridia to get engaged to Mia Shaw?

Seeing Nathan Fawcett remain silent, Anne Sutton added, "What I mean is, you and Nathan Fawcett are brothers, so that makes you a son of the Fawcett Family, right? Why don’t you go back to the Fawcett Family and take over the Fawcett Group? Are you just going to watch everything the Fawcetts own fall into the hands of the Prescotts?"

It had been three years. For three years, Anne Sutton had watched helplessly as Miles Prescott and his son took control of the Fawcett Family.

But she couldn’t accept it!

She had begged Charles Prescott so desperately, yet he hadn’t saved her child.

He had done such an utterly unconscionable thing. What right did he have to possess everything the Fawcett Family owned and live with a clear conscience?

Now, seeing this man before her, Nathan Fawcett’s brother, she thought, ’I can finally see a glimmer of hope.’

But to her surprise, Nathan Fawcett simply said to Anne Sutton, "I have no interest in the Fawcett Family’s affairs, and neither does my mother."

Hearing him mention Anna Linden, Anne Sutton remembered just how much Anna Linden detested the Fawcett Family, which was why she wanted nothing to do with them.

Anne Sutton clenched her fists tightly. "But I really want to see the Prescotts taken down."

Nathan Fawcett said, "Charles Prescott is capable. He can run the Fawcett Group very well. Besides, he was the successor Chairman Fawcett designated from the beginning. To hate him this much just because he’s marrying someone else... isn’t that a bit excessive?"

’He had trusted her too much back then!’

’And in the blink of an eye, she was with Charles Prescott.’

’How amusing.’

’She’s been wronged again, and now she wants to drag me into her grudge with Charles Prescott?’

’But this time, why should I help her?’

Anne Sutton stared at the man before her and realized...

’He was no longer the man she knew!’

’If this were Nathan Fawcett, she wouldn’t have needed to say any of this.’ fгeewebnovёl.com

Anne Sutton said, her voice tinged with disappointment, "My apologies, Mr. Linden. I was getting ahead of myself. I thought because you look just like Nathan, you would be on his side too. But it seems that even brothers don’t always stand together. Even though he’s dead, his own brother doesn’t care about what he lost."

’This man didn’t grow up in the Fawcett Family, so of course he doesn’t care about any of it.’

Nathan Fawcett watched Anne Sutton. As she spoke, her eyes glistened with tears she was struggling to hold back.

For all these years, not a day had passed that she didn’t think about revenge.

She was filled with hatred, but right now, she was too weak!

Nathan Fawcett looked at Anne Sutton and said, "So, from what you’re saying, you want to take down Charles Prescott because of Nathan?"

Seeing the doubt on his face, Anne Sutton replied, "Even if I said yes, it seems you wouldn’t believe me, Mr. Linden. I just think Nathan’s life was truly pitiful. There’s no one left in this world who cares about him. He wasn’t as fortunate as you, to have a mother watching over you."

Nathan Fawcett stared at her, her words stirring a complex mix of emotions within him.

Anne Sutton said, "I was presumptuous today, bringing up the Fawcett Family’s affairs in front of you."

With that, she left her WeChat contact information on the side, saying, "Add me, and I’ll transfer the money to you. I’m going to head back for today."

’How ridiculous of me,’ she thought.

’To think that just because he’s Nathan Fawcett’s brother, he would stand up for him.’

’Then again, even Anna Linden treated her own son like that. Why would anyone else give a damn about Nathan Fawcett?’

Anne Sutton changed her clothes and left.

Talking to this man, she always had the feeling that he was looking down on her.

She walked out, went downstairs, and saw Henry Underwood. Sylvia Warren was with him, exclaiming, "Where’s Leo? I want to see Leo!"

After the incident yesterday, Leo and Mrs. Prescott were taken away. Sylvia Warren herself was put to one side and hadn’t seen Leo since.
