Chapter 140
It would have been fine had Greg not said anything. Unfortunately, he nearly caused Valerie to choke on her rage when those words left his mouth.
"Future daughter-in-law!? Abigail Kain!?"
"Huh? Didn't you choose her yourself?"
He had yet to notice that there was something strange about her tone. All of a sudden, he suddenly heard her say, "Well, I'm regretting my decision now. I won't allow you to take her as your wife anymore. Will you do as I say?"
"Mom, what are you talking about?" His heart skipped a beat. He had finally noticed the anger in her tone. Why is she angry? What ridiculous tantrum is she throwing?
"Come back. I'm not feeling well."
"Alright. I'll bring Abbie along to examine you."
He spoke subconsciously only to hear her cold answer. "If you want me to die faster, then feel free to bring her along."
Her words immediately made his eyebrows furrow deeply. What is wrong with her today?
"Alright, I'll be there soon." Putting down the phone, his eyes darkened slightly.
Mom rarely loses her temper nowadays. Not to mention, Abigail is her savior. Her current tone does not reflect how one speaks to their savior. Mulling over it, he picked up the phone and called Troy. "Find out who visited my mother today."
"Understood, Mr. Buckley. I will get back to you in three minutes."
After hanging up the call, he did not dare to procrastinate. He changed into a fresh set of clothing and left the house.
Standing at the entrance, he glanced toward Abigail's room door. He knew that she might be working hard right now, so he did not tell her he was leaving and drove straight to Valerie's place.
Not long afterward, he received another phone call from Troy.
"Mr. Buckley, Young Master Jonathan visited Old Madam Buckley today. He didn't stay for long and left a short while before you called me."
"Jonathan?" Greg leaned back in his seat, his falcon-like eyes flashing coldly. "That brat must be tired of living."
After saying that, he ended the call.
Hearing what Greg said, Troy thought to himself, I don't know what Young Master Jonathan did to anger Mr. Buckley, but it probably has something to do with Old Madam Buckley.
With that thought in mind, he quickly called one of the subordinates working under him. "I recall there being a project to be signed with the Fraser Family today."
"That's right, Mr. Adams."
"Put it on hold for the time being. Just claim that there are some unresolved problems at the moment. We will discuss this matter again during the next appointment."
With just a single word from him, the project with Jonathan immediately failed to proceed. He could not be blamed for this. Even though Jonathan was Greg's nephew, he had understood Greg's intentions just from listening to the coldness of his words just now.
