Chapter 47 – Until You Say Sorry Novel

This was the first time she hung up on him.

“Why didn’t you answer?” Felipe asked curiously.

Niamh smiled lightly. “It’s just a scam caller.”

After she said that, the lift arrived on their floor. When the door opened and Niamh was about to walk out, she saw Kendrick dressed in all black standing in front of her with cold air around him.

When he saw Felipe standing with Niamh, a cold chill immediately appeared in Kendrick’s eyes.

He lifted his head to look over and Niamh could feel her heart skip a beat.

Even though he was not the man she cared about, her body was still hinting to her that she still could not get away from his shadow.

“Kendrick?” Felipe walked out of the elevator in surprise. “Are you here to pick Niamh up?”

“It’s none of your business.” Kendrick’s tone was cold. His eyes landed on Nevaeh’s face. “Why did you hang up on me?”

“So you’re the one who called Niamh just now?” Felipe said with a laugh. “Niamh joked that it was a scam caller and hung up. Did you two fight?”

After he said that, Niamh saw Kendrick’s face darkened.

He stared at her. “What are you waiting for? Let’s go.”

Kendrick said and grabbed Niamh’s hand.

It was already winter so it was very cold. However, Niamh could feel that Kendrick’s hand was burning.

She fantasized about him holding her hand to cross the road considerately so many times before. However, this searing heat was not what she longed for.

“I’ll just go with uncle.” Niamh got out of Kendrick’s grip and walked toward Felipe.

Kendrick felt his hand slipping from hers and then he was stunned.

“Uncle, please, let’s go.”

Felipe frowned slightly. Two seconds later, he nodded and looked at Kendrick. “So, we’ll get going now, Kendrick. Niamh, let’s go.”

“Okay,” Niamh replied and turned around following Felipe.

She was scared that she would hesitate if she delayed this. She was scared that she would follow the other man absent-mindedly.

“Niamh, are you sure you’re not coming with me?”

Before she could leave, she heard Kendrick’s questioning voice.

Niamh grabbed her bag tighter with both hands. Her nails dug into her palm.

She stopped and turned around. He saw Kendrick standing there alone. His tall and slender body looked lonesome for some reason.

However, the unhealed wounds on her body started hurting dully. She felt as if a million bugs were gnawing on her skin.

It was this pain that made her reply, “I’m sure.”

Niamh said without hesitation. After she said that, she quickly caught up to Felipe.

…

The moment Niamh and Felipe arrived at Waldburg Manor, Kendrick arrived as well.

The moment his car stopped, he walked quickly to Niamh and wrapped his long arms around Niamh’s tiny and thin body. He was holding her so tightly and she could not get out of his hold.

Niamh’s heart started beating frantically. “Kendrick, what are you doing?”

“What do you think I’m doing?” Kendrick questioned. His deep eyes were staring straight at Niamh. “Grandpa longed to see us being all lovey-dovey. Don’t you want to make him happy?’

“…” Niamh had no words. In order to make grandpa happy, she was more than willing to improve her relationship with Kendrick. However… “You don’t have to hold me so tightly.”

When Felipe saw this, he said, “Kendrick, even though you’re in a fight with Niamh, you don’t have to do this. Didn’t you notice that Niamh was very uncomfortable?”

Kendrick chuckled lowly. “How do you know whether my wife is uncomfortable or not? You two have such an extraordinary relationship.”

There was double entendre to his words. He lowered his head and saw that Niamh was feeling reluctant to be held by him. He felt anger rising in his chest. “This is between us. Don’t try to meddle in our business.”

Kendrick said that and went in while holding Niamh.

Niamh looked at Felipe awkwardly. She could only let Kendrick have his way with her.

It was a family dinner but Nevaeh was also in the dining room while making no secret to her presence. On the other hand, the old master was in his room and did not come downstairs as he did not feel well.

When Nevaeh saw Kendrick and Niamh walking in together, she was so mad her hands were already in fists. There was something sinister in her eyes but she could not do anything about it.

However, when she saw Felipe, she was utterly shocked!

That man was Kendrick’s uncle!

She was feeling extremely uneasy. She did not expect that Kendrick’s uncle was the person who stood up for Niamh that day.

Plus, this man even gave her a lawyer’s letter to sue her!

She looked at Felipe nervously. She stood at one side and pretended nothing happened.

Felipe saw Nevaeh as well. He averted his eyes calmly.

Niamh was dragged by Kendrick to sit next to him. On the other hand, Nevaeh sat on Kendrick’s other side. The moment she sat down, she poured wine and took food for Kendrick like a perfect little wife.

Niamh felt that she was being an eyesore. There were all kinds of food on the table but she did not have much of an appetite. Plus, because of her health, she could only eat bland things.

“This is my mother’s best dish. You’ve never tried this before. Here, try it.” Kendrick suddenly put some curry into her bowl.

Niamh knew he was just putting up an act when he made such a considerate gesture. She wanted to cooperate but her body would not allow her to eat such spicy food. Plus, she was not a fan of curry.

“Thank you, darling, but I don’t like this.”

Kendrick’s face fell when Niamh rejected it.

“Niamh, Mrs. Waldburg made this dish. Why don’t you support her a little? Plus, you love curry, so why are you lying?” Nevaeh said innocently.

Niamh wanted to laugh. When did she start liking curry?

On the other side, Mrs. Waldburg’s face turned extremely dark. “Do whatever you want. Do you think I want you eating my food?”

“Niamh.” Kendrick looked at her in annoyance. “Are you eating or not?”

He was forcing her and Nevaeh was smirking at one side secretly.

Niamh held her spoon. She did not know how she should do this.

She really did not like this, plus she also could not eat this.

“Niamh is tired from work and she didn’t eat much during lunch so she can’t eat such spicy food. It would be better for her if she eats something bland.” Felipe smooth things over just in time. Then, he took some vegetables or Niamh. “You should eat this.”

Niamh was taken aback, then she thanked him. “Thank you, uncle.”

Kendrick was already enraged when Felipe chose to sit next to Niamh.

Now, when he saw Felipe taking food for Niamh, a dark wave started crashing over in his eyes.
