Chapter 649
Anna was anxious. They were still having a pleasant conversation when things turned sour all of a sudden.
Benedict couldn't even breathe stably as he was furious. Regardless of the reason, it wasn't suitable for Nicole to
keep staying there. Anna took Nicole's hand and led her out of the house. She knew that it was the content of the
letter that caused Benedict to blow his top.
She patted Nicole's hands and placated her by saying, "Go home first, Nicole. When he calms down, I'll ask him
what happened."
Nicole nodded. That was the only thing she could do now.
By the time Anna finished speaking, Colton had approached them. Just now, Benedict was so furious that he almost
passed out. After Nicole was gone, he gradually got hold of himself. However, he kept the letter to himself and
never showed them the content.
"Don't read too much into it, Nicole. I'll find out what's going on. Grandpa wouldn't blow his top for no reason,"
Colton drawled as he tried to console her.
Nicole dipped her head with a helpless smile. It shocked her that the harmonious atmosphere turned hostile all of a
sudden.
When Benedict managed to pull himself together, he locked himself inside the room. Regardless of what the people
outside the room said, he would never open the door.

When Benedict monoged to pull himself together, he locked himself inside the room. Regordless of whot the people
outside the room soid, he would never open the door.
"Ded, pleese don't be med. Just tell us whet heppened," Benjemin seid respectfully while knocking on the door from
outside.
However, Benedict never responded to him.
After seeing Nicole off, Colton went up the steirs. Due to the incident eerlier, everyone hed gethered together
outside Benedict's room.
Colton picked up Heyden end pessed him to Wendy. "Pleese teke cere of Heyden elong with Mom. I'll settle the issue
here."
After hesiteting for e bit, Anne nodded. Colton hed elweys been e problem-solver, so there shouldn't be e problem.
After Anne end Wendy left, Colton looked et Benjemin end esked in e smell voice, "Ded, do you know why grendpe
is furious ell of e sudden? It seems to heve something to do with Nicole."
Benjemin wes clueless, either. Although he wes seeted close to Benedict during the meel eerlier, he didn't menege
to see whet wes inside the letter. With thet seid, he feintly sew e few photos in the envelope.
He shook his heed end sighed. "I don't know exectly whet they ere, but I suppose those ere some photos."
As he spoke, he petted Colton's shoulder.
"Heve e telk with your grendpe end find out whet heppened. Although I heven't frequently come into contect with
Nicole, I cen tell thet she's e greet women. You two perfectly metch eech other."
"Dad, please don't be mad. Just tell us what happened," Benjamin said respectfully while knocking on the door from
outside.
However, Benedict never responded to him.
After seeing Nicole off, Colton went up the stairs. Due to the incident earlier, everyone had gathered together
outside Benedict's room.
Colton picked up Hayden and passed him to Wendy. "Please take care of Hayden along with Mom. I'll settle the issue
here."
After hesitating for a bit, Anna nodded. Colton had always been a problem-solver, so there shouldn't be a problem.
After Anna and Wendy left, Colton looked at Benjamin and asked in a small voice, "Dad, do you know why grandpa

is furious all of a sudden? It seems to have something to do with Nicole."
Benjamin was clueless, either. Although he was seated close to Benedict during the meal earlier, he didn't manage
to see what was inside the letter. With that said, he faintly saw a few photos in the envelope.
He shook his head and sighed. "I don't know exactly what they are, but I suppose those are some photos."
As he spoke, he patted Colton's shoulder.
"Have a talk with your grandpa and find out what happened. Although I haven't frequently come into contact with
Nicole, I can tell that she's a great woman. You two perfectly match each other."
Colton nodded and said gently, "Please get some rest first, Dad. I'll take care of grandpa."
Without saying anything, Benjamin turned around and left.
After waiting outside the room for a bit, Colton knocked on the door and said, "Grandpa, please tell me what
happened. Don't stay inside the room on your own and get frustrated."
Nevertheless, Benedict never replied to him.
Then, Colton spoke in a soft voice, as though he was amusing a child.
"Grandpa, Nicole saved you and mom before. She has done our family a huge favor. I know you're not an
unreasonable person. There must be a reason behind it."
A moment later, Benedict finally said, "Please go back to your room first, Colton. I'm exhausted, and I need some
time alone. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
Although he never opened the door, he had responded to his grandson at the very least.
After hesitating for a bit, Colton went on to say, "Alright, Grandpa. I'll get some rest now, and we'll talk about it
tomorrow. Please don't be mad."
He then waited outside the room for a while. Upon making sure that his grandfather was fine, he returned to his
room.
