Chapter 659
The bodyguards were dumbfounded upon hearing Wyatt’s words.
One of them asked to confirm, “Mr. Todd, what do you mean?”
“Don’t you understand me? I am no longer the heir of the Todd family. So go back and don’t bother me again.”
Wyatt looked very calm. The expression on his face showed that he didn’t regret giving up his billion- dollar family fortune.
The bodyguards were at a loss, not knowing what to do. They could only look at each other.
Under the puzzled eyes of the bodyguards, Wyatt led Kyra into the door.
As soon as they entered the house, Nicole walked up to them with a long face.
“Wyatt, do you know what you’re doing? Can you give up the succession of the Todd family just like that? You are simply irresponsible!”
Nicole had clearly heard the conversation between Wyatt and the bodyguards just now behind the door.
Wyatt sighed deeply, “Nicole, you know that I’m not suitable for doing business at all. Giving up the succession of the Todd family is the best choice.”
“Who says so? Aren’t you running Moonlight very well?” Nicole was angry and anxious at the same time. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Wyatt explained patiently, “Nicole, you don’t understand. The money I have earned so far is only enough to run the restaurant. I tried my best, but this was the best thing I could do. It’s my mother who
always has the inappropriate illusion that I can be like Maurice. But some things just don’t work, even if you have good intentions. Just like you, you are trying your best, but you can never improve your cooking skills. I’m also the same in business.”
Finally, Wyatt was able to open his heart to Nicole.
Through this, he also wanted to tell her not to feel guilty and uneasy about it.
Actually, he did not make the decision to give up the Todd family’s succession on impulse. He decided about it after careful consideration.
Nicole saw that Wyatt was determined about his decision. She didn’t know what else to say.
She didn’t know how else to persuade him. Whether it was in the past or now, she really had no power to convince him.
When Wyatt saw Nicole’s gloomy face, he deliberately spoke his mind in a joking tone.
“Nicole, I have nothing now except the restaurant. Are you interested in being with a restaurant owner?”
Nicole’s heavy heart suddenly lightened up. She pulled a wry face. “You… Why do you never behave properly?”
How dare he say that in front of Kyra!
For a moment, Nicole’s face flushed at Wyatt’s bold confession. She didn’t dare to look at Kyra’s expression at all.
Kyra actually had a knowing expression. She pretended not to have heard Wyatt’s confession just now and said, “Oops! I just saw that the kitchen is in a mess. You guys talk first. I’ll go clean up the kitchen.”
After she left, Wyatt asked Nicole the same question again. Obviously, he was nervous.
“Nicole, what do you think? Are you willing to give me another chance?”
Nicole was stunned for a moment. She unconsciously squeezed the hem of her shirt tightly.
The man in front of her was her first love. He was someone she couldn’t let go of, even if she wanted to.
They were forced to separate for five years because of their status. Wyatt’s family was rich, while she was not.
This time, for Wyatt to be with Nicole, he almost gave up everything. So he only hoped that she could give him a chance to start over.
Nicole couldn’t help asking herself if she was willing to be with Wyatt again.
And her heart said yes.
Of course, she was willing.
At this moment, Nicole’s hard-earned defenses collapsed when she was faced with Wyatt’s sincere confession.
She slowly took Wyatt’s clenched hand and said between sobs, “Yes, I am willing. I have always been willing.”
Wyatt’s eyes widened in shock. He couldn’t believe his ears.
“Nicole, is it for real? Wait! Did I hear you right? Can you say it again?”
Nicole smiled brightly. “You fool, you heard me right. I am willing to be with a restaurant owner. No matter what happens in the future, I will face it with you.”
Maurice was busy with his work in the Moran Group when he suddenly received a call from Wyatt.
“What’s up?”
On the other end of the line, Wyatt answered in a relaxed tone, “It’s nothing serious. I just want to give you a heads-up. There will be big news from the Todd family in the next few days. But don’t worry. The projects that the Todd family and the Moran family are cooperating with will continue. It’s just that there is a high probability that someone else will coordinate with you instead of me.”
