Chapter 1281: Chapter 1284: How Can Legitimate and Illegitimate Children Be Confused as the Sa Chapter 1281: Chapter 1284: How Can Legitimate and Illegitimate Children Be Confused as the Sa Theodore Lucas and Nolan Lucas both felt a surge of joy in their hearts.
If Charles Coldwell officially introduced Hannah Coldwell to the world, her identity would then be public.
As a result, Frank Chamberlain’s marriage to Hannah Coldwell would indirectly declare that Charles Coldwell’s nation had also joined the Presidential Palace’s camp.
Such good news was truly worth celebrating.
This swept away the gloom that had clouded Theodore’s spirits in recent days, and even the downward trend brought on by the combined strikes of the Reddington family and Aidan Lucas began to fade away.
He smiled and said, “It’s truly joyous that Marshal Coldwell has found his biological daughter. We will certainly be on ti.”
As he said this, he rembered that he had not yet introduced Nolan to Charles Coldwell’s nation and imdiately stepped aside to reveal Nolan, “Marshal Coldwell, this is my son Nolan. He is already engaged to Commander Scott’s beloved daughter and will eventually be like a son-in-law to your military departnt. I hope Marshal Coldwell will take good care of him.”
“Marshal Coldwell, I have long admired you, and to et you in person today is truly an honor,” Nolan respectfully greeted him, even bowing slightly, displaying an excessive degree of respect.
Charles Coldwell nodded slightly, his gaze sharp as he cast his eyes upon Nolan’s face.
That feeling of being suppressed by a strong force returned!
Nolan felt Charles Coldwell’s gaze was not only scrutinizing but also filled with an inexplicable loathing.
No, it couldn’t be, he must be overthinking it.
This was his first formal eting with Charles Coldwell, and being Theodore’s son, it was impossible for Charles Coldwell to loathe him for no reason.
Nolan was reassuring himself of this when suddenly he heard Charles Coldwell’s cold and rciless voice rise, “He is your son?”
“Yes, indeed my son,” replied Theodore, slightly surprised as he had just made the introduction. He couldn’t understand why Charles Coldwell would ask again.
“But I rember that your son is nad Aidan Lucas.”
Charles Coldwell had naturally t Aidan Lucas before, having been introduced to him by Mr. Lucas when he was still a child.
“This… to tell the truth, that child is unfilial and disrespectful, and I’ve long since cut ties with him. Nolan is his older brother, more sensible, more filial, and more deserving of being nurtured.”
The enmities and complexities within the Lucas family were sowhat intricate and opaque, many outsiders couldn’t see through them, but they couldn’t fool Charles Coldwell.
He curled his lips into a slight, chilly smile, “Is that so? Since this is Mr. Lucas’s choice, as an outsider, it is not my place to comnt. However, as for taking care of this young man, please consider that I never offered, and do not bring him before again in the future.”
“Why, why—” Nolan, in disbelief, widened his eyes and couldn’t help but blurt out before Theodore could react.
Seeing Charles Coldwell’s displeased expression and apparent offense, Theodore quickly tried to smooth things over: “Indeed, Marshal Coldwell, what is the reason? Nolan is a bright and filial child, truly a rare talent. Marshal Coldwell just needs to look after him a bit, and once he succeeds , he will certainly not let the Coldwell family down.”
“Heh, you an this illegitimate child?” Charles Coldwell’s expression finally turned cold, his sinister gaze fixed on Nolan with full disdain.
“Theodore Lucas, you’ve truly beco senile. How can you confuse a legitimate child with an illegitimate child? No wonder Mr. Lucas personally brought Aidan Lucas to et back then. It turns out you, as a father, have beco muddled to such an extent.”
“Marshal Coldwell, you…”
“Enough. We do not see eye to eye, so it’s best you look after your own affairs. I will take my leave.”
Without a second glance, Charles Coldwell walked straight past the two, his tall figure even bumping harshly against Nolan’s shoulder, knocking him to the side as if he was passing through a deserted place, leaving between them.
