Howard frowned. His mother was nervous, which made Nina suspicious.
"Bonny, what can I do for you?" Andrea had to change the topic.
"I couldn't get through to Howard on the phone, but he just ignored me all the time. Aunt, how is he
now?" Said Bonny in an aggrieved voice.
Andrea took a look at her son and answered, "he's fine. He's just busy."
Andrea tried her best to cover the cell phone with her hands so that only she could hear the sound from
it.
The show had a great effect. Although Nina was listening carefully, she couldn't hear clearly what a girl
was talking to his mother.
"The day after tomorrow is my birthday. Howard used to be with me seeing fireworks, but I want him to
be with me this year!" Said Bonny.
"Oh, I have to discuss with him about this. I'll give you a reply later, okay?"
"I know. Howard are always obedient to you. Please, aunt!"
Well, that's still the past!
As for now, she was not sure whether he would listen to her or not.
The conversation finally came to an end. Andrea felt her clothes drenched in sweat.
When she saw no doubt on Nina's face, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She had not completely put down her hanging heart. Well, when the mobile phone rang again,
Andrea's heart rose to the throat again. She was like a roller coaster, torturing people!
This time, when she learned to be smart, she directly covered the screen with her hand.
"Dad, are you all right?" Andrea didn't dare to refuse any of Allen's calls.
As soon as Andrea said this, Howard's face turned as dark as thunder.
He knew that it must be bonny who had told his grandfather to put pressure on him.
With that, Howard grabbed her mother's cell phone and quickly walked out.
In the farmhouse, under a big locust tree, the leaves were dense, and moonlight was shining on the
cold ground.
Then he said in cold voice, "Grandpa, it's me."
Bonny was standing beside Allen, whose yellow curly hair straggled over her shoulders. With a delicate
make-up on her face, she was wearing a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Grandpa, is that he, Howard?" She heard the voice of Howard and asked happily.
Allen nodded, "yes."
"You must ask Mr. Howard to come to England. You tell him, if he doesn't come, I'll go to China to find
him."
"Bonny, I will let him come. Ha ha..." Allen laughed cheerfully.
Their conversation was clearly heard by the phone. And it was said clearly by Howard.
Howard answered, "Grandpa, I'm busy with my work. I haven't taken down the land in the south of the
city yet. Now the real estate industry in our country is stagnant. I dare not invest too much money on it,
and I'm still trying to expand the new project, so..."
"Don't make excuses for me. Bonny only celebrate her birthday once a year. Besides, our domestic real
estate companies have been stagnant, so we can invest in the UK. Your uncle Su told me earlier that
he had a project to cooperate with Hua group, and I have agreed. I will wait for you to sign the contract
when you come back. So, no matter how busy you are, you must come back."
"But, Grandpa, i..."
"No buts. Do you really want to send bun to China to look for you?" Howard's voice was not loud, but
full of irresistible authority.
Hearing what his grandfather said, Sherry couldn't ignore it. But he was more afraid that bonny would
come to China.
If she came, then he would have a big problem.
If Howard's real identity was revealed, it would be undoubtedly an unforgivable lie to Nina. He hadn't
figured out how to deal with the consequences yet.
He originally wanted to take some time to understand it and find a way to make her accept it. If Bonny
came now, all this would be messed up.
"Grandpa, I'll go."
"It's Bonny's birthday the day after tomorrow. You must come there tomorrow!" Allen ordered.
"I have something to do tomorrow, the day after tomorrow!" Said Howard with determination.
Bonny was so glad to hear that Howard would come. She said to him in a childish manner, "Grandpa,
we can ask you to come here the day after tomorrow."
"Bonny, you're so nice!" Said Allen.
Then Bonny burst into laughter.
Without saying anything more, Howard hung up the phone.
When he went back to the room, Nina still looked at him with suspicion.
She was simple and kind, but that didn't mean she was stupid.
Just now, Andrea was so nervous and Howard's face was as cold as ice. She felt that Andrea and her
son were hiding something from her.
But she didn't know what it was.
She looked at Howard with her clear eyes. She still trusted him because he was her husband, the man
she loved.
Andrea didn't dare to say anything, or to say, she could not deceive Nina.
Nina was so kind and respected her.
And she liked Nina so much. How could she deceive her!
But for Howard, the only thing he could do now was to keep lying. He also felt sorry for Nina, his baby.
However, no matter how strong Nina was, she couldn't accept the truth.
Nina was still quiet. She was not in a hurry to find out something. She just asked indifferently, "is it from
Grandpa?"
Why didn't the beggar husband mention his grandfather to her!
Howard nodded.
He gently put his arm around Nina's shoulder and said, "honey, grandpa is in B city and he's sick. Let
me go there."
Nina became nervous. She asked worriedly, "Grandpa is sick. Is he seriously ill? Do you need me to go
with you? "
Howard shook her head. He put his hands on Nina's little face and said, "don't worry, honey. He just
caught a cold. He'll be fine."
"What about mom? Will mom go with you? " Nina was still confused. He must be very old, why didn't he
stay with her so that someone could take care of him.
"No, mom. I'll go by myself." Howard knew that Nina had many questions to ask, but he could not give
her the answer she wanted.
Giving him some more time. He must make arrangement to give Nina a perfect life.
Although Nina was confused, he was her trusted husband! If her husband didn't want to talk about it,
there would be a reason. She believed that the beggar husband she loved would never deceive her or
hurt her.
So she gave him a sweet smile and said, "let's go home tomorrow. I'll pack for you."
"Okay, honey." Howard rubbed Nina's hair lovingly.
Andrea felt sorry for her son. She understood what Howard had done to Nina, but she felt more sorry
for Nina who had no idea of the truth.
It was doomed to be an unpeaceful night.
In the dark night, under the moonlight, Howard stared at Nina's sleeping face.
He kissed her gently but was afraid of waking her up.
He suddenly felt himself useless. He loved her so much, but he had to fly to another woman's side
tomorrow night.
He couldn't turn her down, for he didn't want to.
It was not until early in the morning that he fell asleep for the whole night.
When he woke up naturally, his two big eyes became panda eyes.
Nina had prepared breakfast for them. She was chatting with Andrea.
As for Howard, no matter what they talked about, he would always feel nervous for no reason. He was
afraid that his mother would say something wrong accidentally.
So he interrupted their conversation and said, "I'm hungry. Let's eat. After dinner, we have to go back to
the city!"
Nina looked at Andrea sadly and said, "Mom, I have to go back today. I can't accompany you
anymore!"
She said she would stay here for a few more days. Unexpectedly, Grandpa fell ill.
But he couldn't leave grandpa alone since he was ill!
Andrea didn't want to let her go. Although she came back to the city, she felt as far as the horizon. After
she came back to the city, her identity returned to Mrs. Andrea who was the lady of Hua group. She
couldn't meet Nina again.
Andrea's eyes were full of tears. She hugged Nina tightly and said, "Nana, I will miss you."
"I will miss you, too, mother." Said Nina.
After returning to the city, she went to the supermarket and bought many desserts, honey and other
things for her grandpa as gifts. She packed them up and told the Howard to arrange them well.
Howard would take the plane at night. Nina wanted to see him off at the airport, but was refused by
him.
Without replying, Howard gave Nina a long kiss and said, "my sweetheart, take care of yourself at
home. Wait for me to come back."
Nina nodded. She didn't want to leave, but he had to let go.
"Honey, come back early." Nina hugged him and said, standing downstairs.
"I will, honey. Be good at home."
"Yes."
A taxi drove over and Howard got in the car.
Nina stood there until she couldn't see the taxi.
Tears fell silently. She told herself that the beggar husband returned soon.
Maybe it was just a few days, or maybe one morning when she woke up, she saw the beggar husband
sitting in front of her bed, calling her baby like every morning when she woke up.
However, Nina didn't know that they would be apart for so long.
In the Hua family manor, London, England.
An European style ancient castle was located in the middle of the green.
In addition to all kinds of green trees, there were unknown exotic flowers and herbs around.
The lengthened Lincoln stopped abruptly. Howard stepped out of the car, wearing a black tailored
European suit, a dark red shirt with tattoos, a black tie, and a pair of diamond sunglasses. He looked
more dignified and noble than those from royal family.
But there were still scars on her face.
The bulletproof steel door opened automatically, and the several servants moved to two sides. They
bowed respectfully and said in unison, "the young master is back."
Without saying a word, Howard raised his head and looked at the direction of the swimming pool. Allen
was sitting under a beach umbrella and talking with a young girl cheerfully.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, that picture seemed so perfect, but it couldn't warm the eyes of
Howard.
"Hey, Howard, I knew you would come back." Bonny walked towards him, wriggling her slim waist. She
was so excited.
The well thought out tone made Howard very uncomfortable. Bonny was always self-centered and
anything.
She would never replace her position to think, let alone others' feelings.
When Bonny was about to draw nearer to Howard, she dodged aside and gave him a punch.
As Howard leaned back, he reached out and grasped the woman's wrist. "Bonny, don't you feel tired of
such a welcome gift?"
"Howard, it's been a long time since we met last time. I just tried your fighting skills. Not bad, you're still
so agile!" Even though Bonny's wrist hurt, she tried her best to bear the pain.
But it was not easy for Bonny to keep her feet as Howard gently pushed her.
