Chapter 36 Flawless Man
He hadn’t felt so embarrassed in a long while. His face turned pale for a moment before his blood rushed into his cheeks, making them burn as if he had just been slapped a few times. He parted his lips to speak, but he couldn’t find a good comeback.
Sebastian chuckled. “I’ll tell my assistant to send you my number in a while, Mr. Taylor. If you’d like to talk about Phoebe, I’d gladly have that conversation with you. I hope you don’t contact Madeline for matters regarding Phoebe from now on. Madeline’s just a poor little girl who’s no different from a maid in our family. How could you expect a maid to help you complete something even you aren’t able to do?” He curled his lips into an elegant smirk. “Am I right, Mr. Taylor?”
Nigel was so furious that he felt like he was about to burst. His hand was trembling as he clutched his phone. He couldn’t seem to argue against Sebastian’s words at all. What can I say? Can I say that I’m not related to you while Madeline is? Can I say that I wanted Madeline to help me save Phoebe because of that? But as Sebastian just said, Madeline isn’t well-respected over at his house, so she wouldn’t be able to convince him to let go of Phoebe. What can I do? Can I order Madeline to convince Sebastian to let go of Phoebe? Can I tell her that she’d be an ungrateful pig otherwise? Yet, Sebastian said that if I did that, I’d be bullying the weak and that I’d be shameless to do so! I’m the chairman of Taylor Corporation; can I embarrass myself like that?
Sebastian was too good with his words—he could easily make someone lose their temper! Right then, Nigel felt like Sebastian had completely destroyed and shattered him. After uttering a few perfunctory statements, Nigel ended the call and wiped his forehead to find that he was soaked in sweat.
Sebastian returned the phone to Madeline after he saw that the call had ended. “If Mr. Taylor cares about his reputation, he’ll probably stop looking for you and asking you to save Phoebe.”
Madeline wore a complicated look in her eyes as she stared at Sebastian. This guy… It’s good enough that he has stunning combat skills, but how could he also be so good at talking?
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Sebastian shot her a sideways glance before smiling. “Do you suddenly find me handsome?”
Madeline was speechless for a while. Does he think one would suddenly find him handsome? Doesn’t he know that anyone with eyes could easily see how good-looking he is? Especially when he’s fighting and arguing with others… That’s when his handsomeness comes with a hint of darkness. Sebastian is really a child of the Gods, huh. He has a good family background, he’s handsome, he’s good at fighting, he’s smart, he’s good at talking… I haven’t seen a single one of his flaws yet. What is he, if not God’s favorite child?
Sebastian eyed her amusedly when he saw her remaining silent for a while. “Why aren’t you talking?”
“…Thank you.” She didn’t know what else to say. Furthermore, she didn’t really wish to talk to him. He was too strong and too eloquent… She couldn’t win him in both physical and verbal fights, so she figured it’d be best if she didn’t speak!
However, Sebastian didn’t let her go so easily. He gazed out the car window for a while before he looked back at Madeline. “We’re some distance away from the Civil Affairs Bureau, and it’ll take about ten more minutes to arrive. Why don’t we have a chat? Since you’re about to be my wife, perhaps we could talk more to get to know each other.”
“Sure… What do you want to talk about? Do you want to know about Quincy and Joel’s earlier days?” Although her sons never made any such claims, she was aware that they wanted to have both parents as their other peers did. Fate had somehow pulled them together and miraculously allowed the two young boys to unite with their family again.
Madeline hoped that Sebastian could get to know the two boys a little better so that he could develop a closer bond with his sons. “I am genuinely interested in Quincy and Joel’s childhood, but I’ve already heard my father talking about it for two hours with you. I think that’s enough for today, and we can talk about it another day. I’d like to talk about Phoebe instead,” Sebastian said.
“Phoebe?” Madeline tilted her head sideways. “What do you want to talk about?”
Sebastian sat in the most comfortable yet elegant position as he spoke in an amused tone. “Phoebe’s father is the Taylor Family’s cook, right?”
Madeline nodded. “Yeah.”
“Phoebe is Nigel’s second wife. Sam and Dan were both from Nigel’s first marriage, right? Nigel was really close to his first wife, and he hadn’t planned on remarrying after he lost her. However, he ended up getting married to the cook’s daughter, Phoebe. Phoebe is short, ugly, and dumb; there’s nothing about her that’s good…” Sebastian smirked before glancing at Madeline. “Judging by Nigel’s background, he could have married a talented and gorgeous woman from a rich family if he wanted to remarry. Do you know why he ended up getting married to someone as dumb as Phoebe?” Sebastian’s eyes twinkled with amusement.
“I do.” Madeline nodded. “I heard that Phoebe’s father died after attempting to save Dan. Before Phoebe’s father died, he told my uncle that the one person he was the most worried about was his daughter. He begged my uncle to make sure that Phoebe got married so that she would have a family and a home to return to. Phoebe’s father stared at my uncle for a long, long time, and my uncle had to agree to his request so that he could die in peace…”
Although Nigel wasn’t that nice to Madeline, he was still a man who kept his word. After dealing with Phoebe’s father’s funeral, and after Phoebe was ready, Nigel got married to her. Phoebe’s father had sacrificed his life for Dan, so Phoebe was welcomed to the Taylor Family despite her lack of education,
her ugly looks, her loud voice, and her denseness. She was often jeered at after entering the Taylor Family, but her life wasn’t bad.
Madeline’s cousins, Sam and Dan, were grateful for Phoebe’s father’s deeds, so they weren’t resistant to having her as a stepmother. They were extremely receptive and patient with her. After that, Phoebe and Nigel had a daughter, Isabel, and Phoebe finally secured her role as a part of the Taylor Family. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Even though Nigel was harsh toward Madeline, he had done everything he could for Phoebe. Nigel was a handsome man from a wealthy family. Although he was past 40, he still looked like he was in his 30s. He had a well-built figure and was often approached by all sorts of women, but he stayed loyal to the old and ugly-looking Phoebe. He protected their marriage without uttering a single complaint about Phoebe’s uneducated and inelegant behaviors, he protected and loved her generously, and he was always there to deal with the messes she made.
Madeline had to say that she respected her uncle for doing such a thing. When it came to loyalty in marriage, Nigel was practically a flawless man.
