My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1292

Whilst being entirely cold toward Nicole, the Edwards Family cheerfully welcomed Anna, Callum, and Cade. The followers of the Group were also very curious about Mrs. Yard, so they followed and entered the room.

On the other hand, Sam unloaded the invisible burden when he stepped out the main gate of the Edwards Family, feeling that everything was worth it!

He held his child as he walked toward his car with pride. Nicole had settled the cat and dog in the car already.

Sam left the family because of her. She was terrified and confused, but at the same time, overjoyed…

She lowered her head to hide the glow of joy that gleamed all over her face.

We do not need the Edwards’ support to prosper. The future is ours to take control!

Lucy’s car arrived right then. She had had a restless night and a busy morning. She did not even take a nap for two to three days in a row, yet the family urged her to come and greet Mrs. Yard. Hence, she took some time out from her busy schedule just to show up.

Sam’s servants were loading his luggage onto his car at the gate. When Lucy saw them, she poked her head out and asked,“Uncle Sam, are you leaving?”

She already got the news about what happened today on her way back. Sam’s choice did not surprise her at all because he was powerful enough to go against the Edwards Family.

His affection toward Nicole amazed her.

Who would have imagined that Nicole would be the reason he left the Edwards Family.

What a man, full of emotion and affection—it was something very rare in the Edwards Family!

Sam approached Lucy, tapped on her shoulder, and uttered, “I am leaving. From now on, I am not an Edwards. Lucy, I cannot protect you any longer, so take care.”

He earnestly looked at her again and left eventually.

Lucy understood what he meant. Sam’s worries and concerns about her were clearly expressed through his gaze.

Lucy was Jordan’s only child. As she was the young lady of the Edwards Group, Jordan handed over everything to her with confidence. Sam liked Lucy as well. She was an extremely intelligent and capable woman who had inherited her father’s courage and vision entirely. She was well considered as the head of the family, with the Edwards Group’s future in her hand.

However, now that Anna had come into the Edwards Family with her sons, the Edwards now had four more young masters. Two of them were dumb*sses, but the twins, Callum and Cade, were no ordinary people. They would be a great challenge for Lucy.

Besides, Anna was not a simpleton either. Once she moved into the Edwards Residence, this stepmother would regard Lucy, the only child from Jordan’s ex-wife, as a thorn in the flesh.

Together with the inheritance issue, things would get even more complicated.

And now that even Sam had left, Lucy had no support anymore. She would definitely struggle to survive in the Edwards Family in the future.

Jordan had left the Edwards Group when Lucy was still young. Honestly, Lucy had not much affection toward her father, while her mother died at an early age as well. The relationship between Lucy and Sam, who was more than 10 years older than her, was surprisingly good. Sam often took care of her since her childhood, so she was closest to him among the whole family. When Lucy had a conflict with Cooper before, it was Sam who interceded.

At this point, Lucy still kept the bright spirit as she said, “Uncle Sam, don’t worry. I am no longer a child, so I could take good care of myself.”

Sam smiled as he rubbed his niece’s head, like when she was little. He then got in the car and drove away from the Edwards Residence. Sam no longer belonged to the family.

Upon hearing their conversation from the side, Lucy shivered.

Are they planning to deprive all my effort and achievement gained in the Edwards Group in the past 10-plus years simply by saying that I would get married at some point and change my surname anyway?

Before Callum and Cade answered, Lucy suddenly said, “Dad, I’m home.”

Earlier, Jordan was smiling, but when he saw Lucy, he put on a serious expression and asked, “How is the fashion week going?”

Lucy answered, “Everything that needs to be done is done. Nothing critical happened in the showrooms.”

“Mm-hmm.” Jordan acknowledged with satisfaction. “Come. Let me introduce you—this is your stepmother, Anna, and these are your two brothers.”

Lucy uttered politely, “Mrs. Yard, brothers. Nice to meet you.”

Anna smiled gently. “We have met.”

Jordan was completely satisfied with his daughter. “This daughter or mine has outstanding abilities. Without her, the Edwards Group would not be where it is now. Callum, Cade, you should learn from your sister.”

On the surface, Callum and Cade nodded and humbly agreed, but in reality, they had other plans in mind.

Lucy was Jordan’s greatest asset in the Edwards Family, so before one could bring Jordan down, it was absolutely necessary to get rid of Lucy!
