Their purpose was to dig out more news to increase traffic.
Niamh changed her clothes decisively. When she looked back and saw that Kendrick was also going downstairs, she stopped him. “Do you remember what I said just now? Wait for me here.”
Niamh’s eyes were extremely firm. “Trust your wife, and trust that no one can spread rumors at the gate of Waldburg Manor.”
Niamh turned around after speaking, but Kendrick grabbed her hand.
“Nia.”
Kendrick’s eyes were gentle yet firm. “Call me if you need me.”
“I will.” Niamh nodded and smiled before leaving.
Karen also hurriedly followed her. “I’m going to keep an eye on Eveline. If those people dare do anything out of line, I will have the bodyguards kick them all out! ”
Kendrick looked at Karen’s back figure as she hurriedly caught up to Niamh. Deep down, he was deeply moved.
It had not been like this at the beginning. Karen would have gotten annoyed at the sight of Niamh.
Presently, however, Karen was always defending her daughter-in-law, Niamh.
Everything was certainly unpredictable.
Kendrick slowly got up. He walked to the balcony and could clearly see Hannah standing at the gate playing the victim. Not far behind her, many reporters were waiting for the matter to blow up.
After a while, Kendrick saw Niamh wandering into his line of sight.
She had a graceful figure, and the coat draped over her body gently swung with each of her elegant and steady steps.
Niamh’s aura was powerful, and her majestic walk beheld an invulnerable edge.
Since Kendrick’s eyesight was very good, he could clearly see that Hannah’s eyes went cold when she saw Niamh.
Kendrick’s cold eyes narrowed slightly; he was prepared to go downstairs at any time.
In front of the gate of the old house.
Hannah’s pale-looking face looked calm as she stared straight at the approaching Niamh.
Niamh walked up to Hannah very calmly and she said directly, “If you have any ideas and motives, just spit it out. Don’t waste everyone’s time.”
As she spoke, she did not forget to glance at the reporter in the distance.
“The weather today is cold. Just get on with it lest everyone needs to watch your performance while standing in the cold wind.”
Hannah clenched her fists. The thing she could not bear the most was Niamh’s constantly indifferent attitude.
She glared at Niamh and suddenly sneered. “I know in your heart that you’re very bothered by this, but you have to pretend to be indifferent.”
Hannah started to approach Niamh as she spoke in a mocking tone.
“Don’t get any closer to my daughter-in-law!” Karen stopped Hannah from approaching. “What the hell are you doing with these reporters in my house, you crazy woman? Just spit it out immediately!”
Hannah paused and stared at Karen in dissatisfaction. “Daughter-in -law? If she’s your daughter-in-law, what am I? I’m a traditional woman. Since Mr. Waldburg and I already have an intimate relationship, he needs to give me an explanation and a name no matter what. Otherwise, this matter will never be resolved.”
Upon hearing this, Karen’s face fell.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Why would Kendrick have such a relationship with you? How dare you fantasize about joining our family. You’re simply delusional.”
“I’m delusional? Hmph. You’re the number one rich family in Glendale, huh? Do you think just because you’re rich and powerful you can use your power to stop me from talking? I’m telling you. I won’t back down out of fear!”
“You…”
Karen was so mad that she was speechless for a moment.
“Mom, don’t be mad, ” Niamh comforted, then she turned her head and smiled at Hannah confidently.
“Since you came prepared, Miss Bolton, then we’ll not beat around the bush with you. It’s very windy here, so if you don’t mind, come inside for some hot tea and we’ll sit down to talk.”
Upon hearing that, Hannah hesitated for a while, but soon after, she smiled confidently.
“There are so many reporters here, so I don’t believe that you’ll do anything to me once I’m inside.”
After Hannah said that, she took the lead and strode through the door as if she was the matriarch of the house.
Niamh looked at the frowning and confused reporters before turning around to go inside.
Baffled, Karen stopped Niamh. “Eveline, why are you letting her inside?”
Niamh raised her eyebrows and glanced in the direction where the reporters were. “Mom, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
“Of course, I know you know what you’ re doing, and you have your own ideas, but I feel that we’re letting her take advantage of us.”
Niamh smiled lightly when she heard that. “ It’s not about taking advantage or not. Just treat her as a normal guest.”
“Guest?” Karen’s eyes were full of contempt.“ If I hadn’t seen a video of her making a fuss at the company, I would’ve treated her as a guest.”
Karen muttered in annoyance. Still worried, she then warned, “Eveline, women like her never come with good intentions, so you have to be careful.”
Niamh lowered her eyes and glanced at the gauze wrapped around the back of her hand. “ I was at a disadvantage once, so there won’t be a next time.”
“That’s good.” Karen breathed a sigh of relief.
The reporters who stayed not far in front of the door could not help but feel a little perplexed by the situation.
They were here to find more news and they wanted to watch Hannah make a big fuss about this, but now Niamh was letting Hannah into the house.
They could not wrap their heads around this. Why was Niamh being so polite with Hannah?
However, they could not do anything even if they did not understand. They could only stay here and wait. They dared not simply enter the gates of Waldburg Manor.
As soon as Karen entered the house, she asked the servant to carry Niamh’s youngest son upstairs.
Niamh was very generous. She even asked the servants to prepare tea and snacks.
“Miss Bolton, you should be tired after making a fuss for so long? Have some black tea and some snacks. We can start talking again after we’re recharged.”
After hearing what Niamh said, Hannah glanced at the snacks and tea on the coffee table dismissively.
“I didn’t come here to have tea and chat with you. I’m here to seek justice for myself.”
Niamh nodded and smiled. “Well, Miss Bolton, please tell me, what kind of justice do you want?”
“I want Mr. Waldburg to be responsible for me!” Hannah stated her intentions and then her eyes turned sharp. “I don’t need money! I only want Mr. Waldburg to be responsible for me.”
“Hmph.” Karen snorted coldly and glanced at Hannah lightly. “You mean you want to be part of the Waldburg family by becoming our daughter-in- law?”
With a serious face, Hannah looked at Karen and asked, “Isn’t Mr. Waldburg supposed to be responsible for me?”
“Yes, ” Niamh said, giving a very surprising answer to everyone present in the room.
Hannah and Karen looked at Niamh in shock. They were both wondering if they had heard wrongly.
However, Niamh smiled, her expression very serious. “Miss Bolton, you can state your requirements, but I hope you’ll be realistic.”
“Realistic?” Hannah frowned. “Are you saying you want to compensate me financially?”
As she said that, she rolled her eyes disapprovingly. “Eveline, what I want to tell you is that I will not accept anything else aside from Mr. Waldburg taking responsibility for what he had done to me.”
Niamh smiled and shook her head. “You’re wrong. What I mean is, the Waldburgs will not compensate you a single cent.”
Hannah was stunned and confused. “Eveline, what do you mean?”
“I mean I won’t give you any financial compensation. You want my husband to be responsible for you, don’t you? I’ll grant that.”
Bewildered, Hannah looked at Niamh who spoke, and Hannah could not believe what she just heard.
Niamh actually wanted Kendrick to be responsible for her?
Did this mean that Niamh was agreeing to let her be part of the family?
There were many doubts in Hannah’s mind.
While she was in a state of confusion and shock, she saw Karen pulling Niamh to the side.
She then saw Karen whispering in Niamh’s ear, but she could not hear what Karen was saying to Niamh.
“Eveline, what are you talking about? Are you agreeing to take this woman on Kendrick’s behalf?”
Karen looked at Niamh in confusion.
