Chapter 2199: Chapter 2199

Outsiders in the quiet small town always manage to quickly spread the news throughout.

Although the concept of a confinement period doesn’t exist abroad, the nanny Norman York hired for Skye Brown in the town is an extraordinarily witty and kind Eastonian old lady.

She took excellent care of Skye Brown, though didn’t confine Skye to the bed under a blanket, forbidding her from getting up.

However, when there was any work that required physical effort, she would assume full responsibility.

Even when Skye wanted to hold her child and soothe her, the old lady feared Skye might tire herself during the postpartum period and left behind old injuries, thus insisted on not letting Skye touch the child.

In essence, this Eastonian old lady had a kind heart and was very friendly towards Skye, Molly, and Little Allen, making her one of Skye’s close friends in the small town.

The old lady, having finished grocery shopping early morning, rushed into the bedroom to find Skye Brown.

"Miss Brown, Miss Brown... do you know a family of Eastonians with the surname Wellington?"

The old lady wasn’t instructed by Dylan Wellington because she was hired by Norman York, unaware of Dylan’s secret care for Skye Brown.

She only guessed from Molly Wellington’s name that Miss Brown had fled to foreign lands, giving birth to her baby alone, perhaps to avoid her past husband’s family.

Upon hearing the name ’Wellington,’ Skye, who was sitting on the bed feeding her child, abruptly lifted her gaze.

She looked at the old lady with slight anxiety: "I know them... What’s the matter, why mention them all of a sudden?"

The old lady replied: "Miss Brown, today I went out grocery shopping and overheard people talking in the supermarket, saying that a group of Eastonians suddenly arrived in our town, all dressed in suits and ties. I heard they followed an old man here... That old man is very dignified and is staying in the town’s most luxurious hotel. I heard people say that the guest’s surname is Wellington, and it’s said that... as soon as he arrived, he started inquiring if there was an Eastonian woman here, with two Eastonian kids."

Surname Wellington, very dignified, the old man.

Furthermore, he’s deliberately gathering information about her, Molly, and Little Allen.

Without needing to ask more, Skye instantly thought of the Wellington family’s old man, who had always been harsh and critical towards her.

She hid for half a year, thinking she had hidden well and hoping the Wellington family was finally willing to let her go.

It turned out everything was just wishful thinking on her part.

Indeed, how could the Wellington family possibly let her go?

With Molly beside her, along with the newly born Allen, the Wellington family would undoubtedly use all means necessary to snatch the children away from her.

At this moment, Skye felt like a hedgehog, with all her sharp spikes bristling.

She clenched her hand, saying: "I know who they are; they are here to take Molly and Allen. Aunt Collins, please help me watch Allen while I make a call."

Skye would never let Mr. Wellington take her children away.

She wanted to call Lily, asking for her help.

Just as Skye was fully prepared, ready to fight to the bitter end.

Inside the Presidential Suite of the town’s top five-star hotel.

A man shrouded in gloom, seemingly plunged into darkness, appeared before Mr. Wellington.

"Ian Moore..." Seeing the once suave and unmatched handsome grandson standing before him, Mr. Wellington had a moment of distraction.

Was this gloomy and melancholic man still his grandson, Dylan Wellington?

Compared to his previous outrageous and rebellious self, the present Dylan was like a cold, dark ice peak covered by snow that would never melt.

His eyes, akin to ice shards, were still filled with a deep and profound sorrow.

"Grandpa, leave here." Dylan’s voice, cool and devoid of warmth, quietly resonated.

He didn’t exchange pleasantries with the old man nor elaborate further, but straightforwardly stated his position.

"I’ve said before, if you or anyone from the Wellington family dares to appear in front of Skye and disturb her... then I will drag the entire Wellington family down into the abyss, never to recover."

"You know... I hold the foundation of the Wellington family in my hands. If you disturb her and her children, I will immediately all Wellington shares to welfare organizations."

"You..." Mr. Wellington stammered, almost unable to speak.

He never anticipated that Dylan would go to such resolute lengths for a woman.
