Perfect Secret Love: The Bad New Wife is a Little Sweet

2228 Can“t give it to you

The girl looked at the elderly man in incomprehension. Even if Grandpa didn’t care about Father’s life, what about Mother…? She was his real daughter…

“Worriless, I never told you this, but do you know what your parents did?” The elderly man looked at the girl a moment later as he tried to calm down.

The girl shook her head.

She always thought this hostility originated from Grandpa disagreeing with Mother and Father’s marriage.

“You should know that I managed the Nie family single-handedly, right?” the elderly man asked.

“I do.”

“Back then, the Nie family declined, and I used everything I had to drag the Nie family out of the mud. At that time, the Ling family caused all sorts of trouble for the Nie family. Since the previous generation, the Nie family and the Ling family have been enemies and your grandma was killed by someone from the Ling family during one of our battles…” the elderly man explained calmly.

The girl was clearly startled. She really didn’t know about this incident.

“After your parents got married, your mother actually handed the position of the Nie family head to your father… and the two of them teamed up to kick me out of the Nie family… What right do disloyal, unfilial, and corrupt people like them have to be worthy of being my children and your parents? Tell me.” The elderly man looked at her.

The girl was silent. She hadn’t known about these past events.

However, no matter what, Father’s surname was Nie now. Even if her parents got married, it didn’t mean the Nie family had fallen into the hands of the Ling family, especially since Father had severed his ties with the Ling family.

Before Ye Wanwan could continue, the elderly man seriously said, “Give your ring to me.”

“The ring…”

The girl frowned deeply.

The ring she had represented the most supreme leadership in the Rose of Death… It absolutely couldn’t fall into Grandpa’s hands.

“Grandpa… I can’t give this ring to you…” The girl shook her head.

Once this ring ended up in Grandpa’s hands, the consequences would be inconceivable.

“Worriless, if you don’t want to die, then hand the ring over to me.” The elderly man marched toward the girl.

“I can’t… Aunt gave this ring to me. Aunt said no one else can get a hold of this ring…” The girl gritted her teeth and moved back.

“I told you to give it to me!”

The elderly man was enraged and made to grab her.

The girl swiftly evaded him.

“I heard you went under the tutelage of a master on the outside. Your martial arts skills have indeed improved rapidly these past two years.” The elderly man pensively surveyed the girl.

“Grandpa… Don’t force me. I really can’t give this ring to you!” the girl cried.

If she allowed Grandpa to have this ring, it wouldn’t only be a disaster for the Independent State; all Twelve of the Independent States would be implicated… She absolutely couldn’t give this ring to Grandpa.

“Worriless, are you bent on opposing Grandpa?” the elderly man asked.

“Grandpa, I’m not opposing you…” The girl shook her head.

“Nice, Worriless has grown up.” The elderly man suddenly tossed a dagger to her. “If you can defeat Grandpa, then Grandpa will listen to you.”

“Are you serious?!” The elderly man’s words caused the girl’s eyes to brighten.

She frequently sparred with Grandpa. Although she had never won, she had to fight even if she only had only one-thousandth of a chance.

She couldn’t allow Grandpa to keep sinking into the pit and continue his mistake!
