Chapter 1281

No matter how furious Warren was, Alexander didn't look back. He was certain that Emerald would reach out to him soon and agree to his terms.

At present, she had no one else to rely on. Even the people she could use, she didn't fully trust. Besides, the condition he proposed wasn't that difficult.

After Alexander left, Warren fumed for a while before finally calming down. He then dialed Emerald's number and relayed everything Alexander had said, word for word.

There was a brief silence on the other end before Emerald's cold voice came through. "Ignore him. If he wants to go against me for Nyla's sake, I want to see how long he can keep it up!"

Warren quickly tried to soothe her. "Don't be too upset. Alexander is still young. It's normal for him to act impulsively. Once he thinks things through, he'll come back."

Emerald let out a cold laugh. "He knows exactly what he's doing. If we wait for him to come to his senses, who knows how many years that'll take? I won't let him threaten me. From now on, he's no longer my nephew!"

"Alright, alright. Don't get too worked up. I'll find a chance to talk to him," Warren coaxed.

Then, as if remembering something, he asked, "By the way, how's Brian doing?" Emerald glanced at the unconscious man on the hospital bed and said in a low voice, "Still not awake. We're heading back in the morning."
