Chapter 1250

Adriana examined the small wounds on her palm and reflected on her shoulder injury, which made her sigh in frustration.

“I had hoped to provide you with a peaceful life as a girl, but your uncle insisted on passing the family’s leadership to you, exposing you to numerous dangers and repeated attacks. I can’t believe he… If you weren’t safe and sound now, I would have definitely argued with your uncle.”

Neera’s heart was warmed by these words, but she also found them amusing.

“Don’t worry about that. You’ve come a long way to be able to live happily with your love. I don’t want to be the one to ruin your relationship.”

Adriana snorted. “Regardless, this position was forced upon you by him. If anything happens to you, I will definitely confront him!”

Neera smiled faintly. “Look, I’m fine. Besides, I want to help both of you. You and Uncle Chad have missed so many years together. Now that you finally have the chance to be together, it would be a shame if he’s still entangled with the Gordon family’s affairs and can’t break free. I can see that he wants to spend all his remaining time with you. I also want you two to live happily and undisturbed. So, this is my own choice, not something he forced upon me.”

Adriana looked at her, her eyes soft and gentle. “My dear girl… you’re always so sensible.”
