Chapter 1007 -1010: The Marriage Partner Who is a Match for Xingluo Gate
“Okay, let’s go and have a look.”
Abbie was defeated by Lulu’s timid gullibility, but what could she do? She was her own twin sister, and even though she felt her sister was foolishly too easy to deceive, she still needed to protect her.
“Don’t worry, even if grandmother likes him very much, grandfather and uncle won’t agree. Come on, let’s go have a look…”
Abbie dragged Lulu along as they walked into the castle.
Along the way, she was figuring out how to pierce through Richard Coldwell’s “scheme.”
However, when the two little kids arrived at the reception room and saw Richard Coldwell sitting neatly on one side of the sofa, neither dared to make a fuss.
Richard Coldwell was truly terrifying.
His expression was indifferent, his features noble and handsome.
Those dark blue eyes were so cold that people dared not look directly at them.
Even while he was meeting the Duke, his face still carried a disdainful indifference.
“Abbie, Lulu, you’ve arrived just in time.”
When Sylvia Scott saw the two little babies, her face was filled with an indulgent smile.
She helped one child on each side climb onto the sofa.
Gathering them into her arms, she lifted their little faces and gave each of them a fragrant kiss.
“Grandmother, fragrant!” Lulu hugged Sylvia Scott’s neck, burrowing her soft little face into grandmother’s neck.
She loved her fragrant grandmother the most.
Duke Redington watched from the side, feeling jealous of both his wife and the two little lads.
Even though he was right beside them, his wife didn’t even bother to give him a kiss, and the two little kids completely ignored him throughout.
He felt neglected, got upset, and was not happy.
Looking at Richard Coldwell sitting opposite him, the Duke’s gaze suddenly became a few degrees colder.
“Cecil, about the matter of taking the two little kids to Eastonia, I must consider it further.”
The Cecil he referred to was Richard Coldwell.
Richard Coldwell’s English name was Cecil Borkin.
Duke Redington was reluctant to part with the two babies and did not wish for Richard Coldwell’s plan to succeed. Thus, using his bad mood as a pretext, he indifferently declined the proposal.
However, the Duke’s answer obviously did not satisfy the Duchess.
Sylvia Scott rubbed Lulu’s head and looked displeasedly at the Duke, “What else is there to consider? I think Cory’s proposal is very good. Taking the children to find their mother, the kids should be with their mother.”
“Lily has been away for too long, and she hasn’t contacted us for such a long time. I seriously suspect she might be hiding something from us. Ken, we can’t leave now, and since Cory is just about to return to Eastonia, why don’t we…”
Sylvia Scott tugged at the Duke’s sleeve, her eyes shimmering with hopeful anticipation.
The formidable Duke Redington, upon seeing his wife’s intentionally softened gaze full of expectation, couldn’t utter any words of refusal.
In a moment of warm-heartedness, the Duke nodded and said, “It would be good for Abbie and Lulu to go to Eastonia as well. The baby is in Eastonia, and these two little lads must miss the baby too. During this time, Cecil, we’ll have to trouble you with taking care of the two children. We’re quite tied up recently, but we’ll come over once we finish here.”
So it was that the two little babies had come with the intention to cause mischief.
Unexpectedly, not only did their mischief fail, but they also roped themselves into the situation.
Cecil Borkin was Duke Borkin’s most beloved grandson.
Just like the Reddington family, the Borkin family was also one of Europe’s ancient families. The Reddington family had a gangster background, and the Borkin family was not inferior—their wealth stemmed from wartime profiteering.
Now, they were the largest arms dealers in Europe.
Because of this, the Reddington and Borkin families could be considered the most suitable match for dynastic marriage.
