Chapter 880

"Madam, you can't blame it on the master a s he had his own difficulties. As the Woods family master,

he had to consider the best for the entire family! Apart from that, he did arrange for one million to be

given to you every year and nobody here knew about the incident where your son knelt outside the

house for an entire night!" The old man spoke anxiously. "Hence, it must b e that woman, Lily Larogio,

who asked her worker to lie to you, creating such a huge misunderstanding between us!”

The young woman thought about it and also said, "Auntie, it’s fine if you don’t want to forgive the

master. However, the master i s dying and I really hope that you will go back with the young master to

visit him. Think of it as your chance to pay your last

respect to the master. Master has been mumbling your name every day. I believe that he would come

to meet Young Master Fane if he can get out of bed now!"

"Are things that bad now?" Joan was slightly worried when she heard what the young girl said. After all,

she once loved Nash and he was undeniably Fane's father.

Joan was not worried when she heard the old man say that Nash was seriously ill. She knew that the

Woods family was now a reclusive aristocratic family. This meant that they had plenty of great

subordinates and masters with them. Nash would be easily treated even if he was sick. However, it

seemed to be a serious problem that could not be easily solved.

"The master's condition is quite serious. W e employed many well-known doctors previously but

nothing has worked!" The young lady smiled bitterly and continued speaking. "Now, the master's only

hope is for Young Master Fane to return and inherit the Woods family's properties. He hopes that the

both of you can forgive him for his incompetence years ago and his inability to take care of you!”

"Inherit the properties? Didn't Lily have a son with him? Why does he need Fane to return and inherit

the family properties?” Joan was surprised and felt that things had grown increasingly complicated.

Apart from that, it was impossible for Lily t o let Fane inherit the Woods family properties according to

her character as she was Nash Woods' wife.

The old man smiled bitterly before speaking, "He went into an unknown forest with several young

masters from other families, he never returned after. We think that he might have been eaten by the

beasts in the forest!" "How's that possible? Didn't you guys send anyone over to try and find him?"

Joan was extremely surprised. Nash and Lily had only one son and they must be extremely upset if he

was dead.

No wonder Nash wanted Fane to return and inherit the family's properties because Lily and his only

son was deemed dead.
