Chapter 2277
When Nan Gong heard Max say that Jin was in the ICU, she looked over there with a strong sense of uneasiness in her eyes.
Only when she heard Max's voice did she come to her senses. When she saw the man in front of her, whose features were somewhat similar to that of Max's, she nodded slightly. "Yes, it's me."
"I'm Jin's father," Max said.
"Hello." Nan Gong greeted him with a smile. It was the first time she had met Jin's father, so she was not nervous at all.
Max smiled again. "Miss Nangong is indeed a noble lady. She has an extraordinary temperament. If any other woman who likes Jin sees me, she will be very polite. Even if it's Martin, she's afraid of being rude to me."
Nangong did not have the respect and courage of a young woman to see an authoritative person, nor did she have the arrogance she had when she was in the Nangong family. It was as if she was still calm in the face of people of high status!
Because she was born into a noble family, she had seen almost all kinds of powerful and powerful families.
Even if she faced Aman, she would not be afraid.
Nan Gong smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Molly, are you blaming me for being rude?"
"No, it's a compliment for you, Miss Nangong." It was also the first time that Clark saw the woman his son liked. "I appreciate your courage and bearing."
At least she was not a petty woman.
After all, if she wanted to marry into a wealthy family and help her husband manage the family business, she couldn't be a petty woman.
Yes, just like his wife, she was domineering and beautiful. She could stand the scene.
At the thought of this, the corners of Max's mouth once again curved into a smile. She thought that Jin's taste was probably the same as his. There were even more women who liked to be generous...
"Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Molly." Nan Gong smiled and said in a gentle voice, "But I'm no longer a noble. I'm just an ordinary western woman now. It's good that Mr. Molly doesn't blame me for being impolite."
"You're welcome, Miss Nangong."
Max admitted that from the perspective of choosing a daughter-in-law after seeing this Miss Nangong, he preferred Miss Nangong more than Martin... It would be great if she was not a member of the Nangong family.
Nangong was still worried about Jin's situation. However, when he heard that the doctor had said that the doctor would not send someone to see Jin, he could not help asking, "Excuse me, what's the situation with Jin now?"
"The doctor said that the wound wasn't serious. It was mainly because his head had been hit and there might be blood in it. That's why he's unconscious now." Max sighed when she said that. "I've already done the CT. I'm still in the ICU. I hope that Jin can wake up as soon as possible. His mother is very worried about him."
Nan Gong smiled brightly. Her mother was not the only one who was worried about him.
On the other end of the line, her heart almost stopped when she heard the news of Shawn's car accident...
"Of course, I hope that he won't worry about those who care about him." Max looked at Nangong, knowing what she was thinking. She said to her, "If Miss Nangong is worried, you can go to the window to visit Jin first..."
Just as Max was about to say that Jin had regained some consciousness, Yara was inside. Unexpectedly, Nan Gong smiled and quickly turned her eyes away. "No, that's not necessary. I don't want to see him lying on the bed..."
Perhaps she would really not be able to leave once her heart ached for him.
Even though she usually looked cold in front of Clark, she knew very well that she didn't care about him.
Max looked at her in confusion. "So, what do you mean, Miss Nangong?"
"Since you are here, I want to ask you something. Mr. Molly and Mrs. Molly don't agree with Shawn being with me, do they?" Nan Gong asked this question quietly with a smile, because she could guess the answer.
However, she wanted to hear Clark's father say that in person.
Max did not answer her question.
Nan Gong turned around slowly and looked at the sky outside the window. "I know that because I'm from the Southern Palace, you can't trust me at all. But even so, I still want to tell you, Mr. Molly. I'm very grateful to Shawn, so I won't stab you in the back."
"Of course, he is a benefactor to you, Miss Nangong." Max was very clear that the reason why Miss Nangong could be fine now was that Shawn was in love with Aman. "If it weren't for Jin, I wouldn't even be able to keep your jewelry company, let alone you. After all, Aman will not give the Nangong family any chance to make a comeback."
Of course, it would be difficult for a jewelry company to make a comeback.
After all, Nangong Yen was dead, and the other branches of the Nangong family were scattered again.
That was why Mrs. Molly was worried that Nangong would be sent by the Nangong family to use the honey trap to lure Shawn into the trap and reserve power from the Molly Family. Then, she would be able to make a comeback in the future.
Therefore, Max understood Madam's concerns. This was also the reason why he did not stand out to support Max. That was because there was a reason behind Madam's worries!
Nan Gong nodded with a smile. "Yes, but I never thought of using him, let alone using the Molly Family."
Max didn't say anything.
After all, sometimes people couldn't believe people's words.
What kind of person was Miss Nangong? It would probably depend on her in the future.
"Of course, I don't want you to believe what I said." Nan Gong smiled as if she was just talking about the truth.
"Miss Nangong, can you tell me that you were with Jin because he helped you?" Max asked the most important question. "You were with him because you were grateful? Can you answer my question?"
Nan Gong's smile froze on her face. He didn't say anything for a long time.
They could only see her choking with sobs.
After a long while, she pursed her lips. "...I used to be."
She could not deny this. She had been with Jin at first because she was grateful to him.
"Are you saying that you are together with Jin not because you truly like him, but because you truly love him?" Max naturally cared about this point. She cared about the woman that her son had to protect even if he had to offend his wife. Was it worth his son's love?
"But I love him now." Nan Gong turned back quickly with a smile and her eyes became firm. "As for this, no one can deny my feelings."
Max looked at her and found that her emotions were out of control. Nan Gong smiled and lowered her eyes. "Sorry, I just want to say, Mr. Molly, don't worry if I am a female liar. I have never lied to anyone, nor have I lied to Max."
"It's best not." Max said, "After all, for your sake, Jin did not hesitate to fall out with his mother. If he can't win Miss Nangong's heart by paying so much, then his efforts on you are not worth it."
