Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 624 Biting The Bait 

Hearing that, Barnaby accidentally knocked over the wineglass beside him, causing the red wine to spill all over his body. Embarrassment washed over his face, leaving him momentarily speechless..

Throughout the years, the Stone family had witnessed Barnaby and his late wife, Constance Baker, maintain a reserved yet amicable relationship. They had never engaged in arguments or disputes. However, prior to Constance’s passing, an unexpected shift occurred. Constance confronted Barnaby, issuing a stern ultimatum that compelled him to make a solemn pledge.

Barnaby promised her that he would never enter into another marriage after her demise, and regardless of Sheridan’s competence, nobody would have the power to strip him of his rightful position as successor.

Constance’s insistence on Barnaby making that vow in front of the entire Stone family left them pondering the significance behind her request.

Following his retirement, Barnaby adopted a more relaxed lifestyle, dedicating his time to caring for his beloved plants. Occasionally, he would indulge in tea sessions and engage in friendly games of golf with his circle of friends.

Initially, when the rumor circulated about Azure being Barnaby’s old flame and that she gave birth to a son for him, the Stone family dismissed it as a fabrication.

However, their skepticism was shattered when Barnaby eagerly went to meet Azure, providing undeniable confirmation of the rumor’s authenticity.

Sheridan was smart enough to mention Constance, so Barnaby would dismiss his idea.

Indeed, Barnaby caved in. “I won’t go back on my word. I’ll go and get changed, so you can enjoy dinner without me. Don’t wait for me.

He rose from his seat, abandoning both Nigel and Yerek behind.

Sheridan shot them a sarcastic look. “I’m afraid outsiders are not welcomed at our family dinner. I’ll get someone to see you off.”

“No need for that. We can see ourselves off!” Nigel declared. He had hoped that this family dinner would serve as an opportunity for him to regain his status, but instead, he found himself being treated as a fool. He couldn’t let this slide.

Naturally, Yerek saw no reason to stay back either.
