Chapter 772
But he still couldn’t shake this from his mind.
He initially thought Mason’s grandpa, like his classmates, despised him because of his humble background
As he started his own business after graduation and achieved significant success in his field, he began to grasp the truth
Mason’s grandpa wasn’t a fan of his origins. Even though he worked his way up to his current status, in the old man’s eyes, he was still from a lowly background and not worthy of his attention
To him, aristocrats like Liam were noble, while self made people like himself, no matter how high they climbed, were always lowly
The reason he wasn’t as close to Mason as he was to Liam had a lot to do with Masoris grandpa.
One summer he went to catch fish in the river with Mason
At that time, Mason was involved in many extracurricular activities and had homework to do every day
Nobody ever cared much about Nicolas’s studies, and he was always at the bottom of his class before high school
So he persuaded Mason to skip school, and they went fishing for an afternoon
When they got back to the Fletcher family, Mason’s grandpa refused to let him in
He asked a servant to bring a knife and said. “Since you love fish so much, get a closer look at what they’re really
He made Mason use the knife to gut each fish they caught
The sight of Mason gutting fish and crying was still etched in his memory
For him, gutting fish was no big deal since that’s how his family earned their living.
But for Mason, it was a devastating blow
Mason later developed a dislike for fish, which he guessed was probably due to that incident
That was a long time ago, and with Mason spending so many years abroad for treatment, the memory gradually faded
Liam clenched his fists and stayed silent for a long time
Nicolas said again, I’m having drinks with Mason this weekend, come with us!
Liam replied, “I’m not going”
“Enough with the act, we’ve been friends for years, let’s just talk it out‘
Nicolas walked over and patted his shoulder “By the way, don’t tell Trisha I didn’t help her investigate Helen
Liam glanced at him and said, ‘Got it”
As soon as Nicolas lett, Liam sent the audio he had just recorded to Trisha’s WhatsApp, and then carefully typed a message.
“Although Nicolas is my good friend, I don’t want you to be deceived”
Message composed
Sent
Nicolas getting Trisha’s forgiveness so quickly made him uneasy
The moment Nicolas got in his car, Trisha called
Nicolas smirked “Did you miss me?”
“Yeah, I miss you!”
Trisha looked pissed She was furious
This annoying guy! He’s been lying to her for the past month!
“When are you coming home?”
Trisha asked
Nicolas replied with a laugh, “What’s with the question? Worried I’ll be home late?”
“Tm cooking tonight. if you come home late, I won’t cook for you”
