Secretly Married to a Wealthy Husband - Chapter 490:
Chapter 490: Chapter 490: Do You Really Want Her?
As they were always so solemn and cold, their sudden quarrel in such a tone seemed… childish, not quite fitting their masculine image.
To the outside world, both men in the Stuart Family were intimidating and frightening, but who could have imagined their squabbles could be so childish when it came down to grandfather and grandson?
“Enough!” Just as Zachary Stuart’s cane was about to fall, Baron Stuart’s stern shout managed to stop his own grandfather, somewhat turning the tables for a moment.
“Grandpa, you can do whatever you want, but don’t touch her.” The look in Baron Stuart’s eyes suddenly became serious, “I’ve respected you for decades, don’t force me to challenge you repeatedly.”
Both grandparent and grandchild had their own temperaments, and a real conflict between them would only damage their affectionate feelings for one another.
It was something neither man wanted to happen.
After half a moment, Zachary Stuart’s cane gradually came down, “For a woman, you would defy me?”
He gazed at his grandson, whom he had personally nurtured and taught, in deep pain. Now, this grandson was going against him for the sake of a woman?
“It’s not me defying you, you should know my temper.” No one could touch what was his, not even his own grandfather.
The beast within him was dormant, but do not carelessly provoke it, because it was merely asleep, not… dead!
Zachary Stuart quietly looked at his grandson in front of him. Was he determined not to let him touch her?
He too knew that his grandson also had a streak of stubbornness like him. Once he made up his mind about something, not even a thousand-horse army could pull him back.
But there were so many daughters of prominent families, why did he have to choose this little girl?
Zachary Stuart glanced up at the little girl hiding behind Baron Stuart’s arm.
She didn’t look all that objectionable, but she was a woman with an agenda!
“You have to have her? No matter what her intentions are for getting close to you?” Zachary Stuart looked at Baron Stuart, his tone filled with deep helplessness.
Baron Stuart’s face was cold as he breathed out a single word, “Yes.”
Upon hearing this, Zachary Stuart took a deep breath, fixed a steady gaze at him, and then turned to leave.
Seeing him leaving the villa, Emily Walker, who had been gripping Baron Stuart’s arm tightly, finally let go.
A moment ago, she was truly afraid he would strike downward with his cane.
Baron Stuart turned his head and saw the look of relief on her face, a faint smile curling up at the corners of his mouth, “Scared?”
Emily Walker looked up and then shook her head, “Why did you come back at this time?”
She was genuinely curious because it was such a coincidence that he came back at this time. Surely, he didn’t rush back because he sensed she was in danger?
She didn’t believe in the existence of telepathic connection!
At her question, Baron Stuart raised his left hand, looked at the platinum-edged diamond watch on his wrist, then looked back at the person in front of him, “I have another meeting, I have to go.”
After saying this, he didn’t wait to look at the person in front of him and turned towards the front door.
In fact, he had already been in the meeting room when he came back, he only left suddenly after receiving a call from Mrs. Noelle.
At this moment, presumably everyone in the meeting room was waiting for him to return to the meeting.
Watching his hastily retreating figure, Emily Walker wanted to say something, but Baron Stuart’s figure had already disappeared at the front door.
