Chapter 255
Patrick’s eyes lit up. “Yes, yes, that makes sense! Instead of waiting here for a Mr. Foster who might not even show up, we should go ask Mr. Blackwood for help p>
Hailey watched the black Maybach draw closer, her heart pounding and her cheeks flushing. She feigned coyness. “But… but I’m already with p>
“Don’t you dare mention that wimp Adrian!” Marianne fumed at the very thought of him.
The Wynn family’s current predicament was directly tied to him!
She pouted, her face full of disdain. “That Cole boy is a coward. The moment trouble started, he tried to wash his hands of it. He has no sense of responsibility. How can he even be compared to Mr. Blackwood p>
She patted Hailey’s shoulder again and advised her earnestly, “Hailey, you need to learn to tell the difference between a rock and a diamond p>
Of course, Hailey wanted to catch Nicholas’s eye.
He was a man so far above her she didn’t even dare to dream of him!
But her previous attempts at flirting and subtly seducing him had all been completely ignored.
Seeing Nicholas now still made her nervous.
But then she had another thought p>
This time, her parents were with her.
In a way, they were Nicholas’s elders, weren’t they?
Surely, Nicholas would have to show some gentlemanly courtesy and respect them.
As long as he was willing to acknowledge her, that would be a great start!
“Dad, Mom, stop daydreaming. Mr. Blackwood, he Logan began, unable to stand his parents’ excited expressions.
He hadn’t even finished his sentence.
“Logan p>
Hailey’s voice rose sharply, cutting him off.
She bit her lower lip.
She knew what Logan was about to say.
It was nothing more than that ambiguous relationship between Nicholas and Serena!
She didn’t want her parents to know that Nicholas and Serena were close!
She didn’t want them to think she was inferior to that bitch Serena!
If Serena could hook up with Nicholas, why couldn’t she?
“Forget it. Pushing Hailey out there like this. it’s not..” Benedict
deeply,
feeling this war beled
was highly inappropriate.
Hailey quickly interjected, “Dad, Mom,
Wynn Brother, for the sake
belet
family… I’ll do my best ase Mr. Blackwood! sŵnovels
As she spoke, she ran a hand through her wavy hair and flashed ap even sweeter smile. As long as it helps the Wynn family, I’m willing to do anything p>
The black Maybach came to a smooth stop at the entrance of the Obsidian Palace.
Hailey immediately began swaying her hips, her face adorned with the sweetest, most appealing smile as she hurried forward.
She even turned slightly to the side, striking a pose that best showcased her figure.
As soon as Nicholas opened his car door, his gaze would fall upon that expanse of p>
The Wynn parents followed gleefully behind her, their faces plastered with fawning, obsequious smiles.
Nicholas… was a figure they could normally never hope to meet!
How could they possibly miss such a golden opportunity p>
The door of the black Maybach slowly opened.
Hailey immediately struck her pose.
But the first thing she saw was a leg, clad in black cargo pants, stepping out crisply onto the polished ground.
The leg was long and slender.
Following it, a slim, tall figure came into the view of Hailey and the rest of the Wynn family.
