Chapter 875

Niamh's face turned pale. "Uncle..." This man was humiliating her!

"If you're calling him uncle, shouldn't you call me auntie?" Sylvia elegantly walked over and linked arms with Franklin.

The handsome couple standing intimately together deeply stimulated Niamh's eyes.

Why did such a handsome man have to be with this woman? She must be clinging onto him and not letting go.

"Mr. Maskelyne, what happened?" Clare walked over with a glass of wine in hand.

"Uncle..." Niamh's voice sounded aggrieved as she pouted her lips and looked at Clare pitifully. When she was younger, Clare had always doted on her. He would definitely support her now.

Clare didn't notice Niamh's thoughts as his attention was focused on Franklin and Sylvia. "Mr. Maskelyne, this is my niece Niamh. If she has disturbed you in any way, I will take her away immediately." Take her away...

Niamh was shocked by Clare's words.

She had come specifically to meet this incredibly handsome man but now her uncle wanted to take her away?

Was he kidding?

"No, she seems interesting." Sylvia smiled mischievously making herself even more charming. "She just said that she wants to call Franklin uncle."

"I'm friends with Mr. Hipps so it's alright for her to call me uncle." Franklin saw the cunning glint in Sylvia's eyes and quickly agreed with what she said.

The two of them exchanged words leaving Clare stunned speechless from their conversation.

He frowned at Niamh, "It has been so long since we've seen each other yet you still don't understand manners? How could you act so impolitely in front of Mr. Maskelyne?"

Tears welled up in Niamh's eyes as she felt wronged, "That wasn't my intention... Uncle..."

She wanted to explain but then heard Clare speak seriously, "Mr. Maskelyne is my friend; from now on when you see him, you must respectfully address him as 'uncle'. Seeing him should be like seeing me; do you understand?"

Niamh thought that her uncle would support her but instead...

Clare solemnly requested that she address Franklin as 'uncle'?
