Chapter 966 Behave Like a Graceful Girl

Atwood looked at him, “It’s rare that you want to tell me something. Firstly, is it good news or bad
news?”

George was not joking with him, “Serious issue.”

Atwood glanced at him and believed him momentarily.

He was wary of George since he was Alyssa’s son. After all, who knew what he was thinking in his
mind?

George could sense that Atwood was wary of him but he did not take it seriously. Anyway, who should
he blame for being Alyssa’s son?

Nobody could decide their birth.

He resigned himself to have such a mother. However, he had to change himself and could not be idle
anymore.

Soon, they arrived at a bar. George was familiar with this place as he used to fool around here and
recognize some people.

Although those people were not kind, still they were not bad guys either. They just liked to make out but
they were still very loyal to friends.

He was familiar with the layout here since he had been a regular customer. So, he chose a quiet
private room.

“Go ahead, what do you want to tell me?” Atwood spoke after sitting down.



George cracked a joke to enliven the atmosphere, “How come you’re so impatient? You’re even my
brother’s right hand.”

Atwood was speechless.

He chuckled, “Just kidding. Don’t be too serious.”

Atwood ridiculed him in his mind. ‘Am I very close with you?’

George became serious and said, “Back to the point.”

“Go ahead.” Atwood moved his neck and leaned back onto the sofa.

“Has something happened to my brother recently?” He felt that Stanford had suddenly changed his
attitude and accepted him due to something seemingly.

As for what reason, he was not too sure.

So, he wanted to get the answer from Atwood.

“Mr. James…” Atwood paused for a moment, “Indeed, quite a few things have happened to him.”

“Tell me what those things are.” George approached him.

Atwood pushed him away, “Behave yourself. Don’t get so close to me.”

George was speechless.

He sat upright, “Go ahead.”

“Amanda didn’t die. His change in attitude must have something to do with her. He wanted to get her
back. His leg was injured because he went to chase after her.” Atwood signed, “You’re the one who



harmed him.”

Atwood had always believed that the culprits who caused Stanford to be like this were Alyssa and
Enoch.

They were the ones who had caused Stanford’s unfortunate childhood that made him lack love and
lose Amanda.

George did not retort because Atwood was right.

He did think so and admitted it.

“Let bygones be bygones. I’m looking for you this time because I want to do something for him.”
George made up his mind, “Do you know where she is now?”

“What do you want to do?” Atwood did not trust George yet as he was afraid George would do
something bad to Stanford.

George understood Atwood’s reaction and explained, “I know he didn’t hold my mother to account. I’m
grateful for that. It has always been our fault and we feel sorry for him. Now, I want to do something for
him. Since his leg is still injured and it’s difficult moving around, I want to bring my sister-in-law back for
him.”

Atwood looked at him and did not say anything. He just looked at him quietly for a long time.

George did not dodge either. He looked straight at Atwood’s scrutinizing gaze and said, “I’m honest and
serious.”

Atwood thought for a while, “It’s fine too. Anyway, I can’t get away from my job. It’s better to have
somebody who can go and find her for me.”



George smiled, “I will find her by all means. I will definitely get my sister-in-law back for my brother.”

Atwood sighed, “I hope you can.”

“What do you mean? You know my sister-in-law used to like my brother so much…”

“George.” Atwood interrupted him, “It was Mr. James who initiated the divorce in the first place. She
was almost killed by Lindsay and even lost a child. Do you think she can still forgive him?”

George’s eyes widened and he remained silent then.

He was shocked that Amanda had lost a child before and it belonged to Stanford as well.

In fact, he had always understood that Stanford longed for family warmth.

So, his change in attitude was because he had lost a lot of things that he cared about. Now, he wanted
to get them back?

As such, Stanford was forgiving his mother because he did not want to cause any unforgivable
mistakes out of hatred.

“I will bring my sister-in-law back,” George said firmly.

Atwood took a deep breath, “I hope you can really make it.”

Actually, he did not believe George could make it.

The word “forgive” was rather easy to say. However, it required much courage to actually do that.

“Hey, she is at Chiang Mai in Thailand. You try your best.” Atwood stood up after saying that, “I still
have something to do, I will leave first.”



He walked out and left after saying that.

George looked at him, “Thank you. Don’t tell my brother first, I want to give him a surprise.”

Atwood did not turn around but he just waved his hand, “Got it.”

Atwood went straight to the villa after leaving the bar.

A maid was recruited to clean up the villa since Stanford had difficulty with his legs, so he could not be
left alone at home.

He had to inform Stanford after settling those issues.

When he arrived at the villa, Stanford was sitting in front of the window. The maid had already prepared
some food and served them on the table a while ago. The food seemed to have got cold.

“Mr. James.” He walked over.

“Lindsay is dead. She is proven to have committed suicide after investigation. I have already dealt with
Blithe. Also, Michael who let her go has been dismissed and investigated.”

Stanford sat still and did not respond, but Atwood knew that he had heard it clearly.

“She always used to sit opposite me at that table.” Stanford moved his wheelchair and looked towards
the table.

Atwood pursed his lips and lowered his head.

“But I have lost her.” His face was gloomy, “This is the punishment given to me for hurting her.”

“I haven’t eaten yet. Mr. James, let me accompany you.” Atwood took the initiative and spoke.



Stanford shook his head, “I don’t have any appetite.”

It was not her sitting opposite him at the table. Nobody could replace her.

“When your leg is better later, you can go and find her. There’s still a chance.” Atwood comforted him.

Stanford raised his eyes and looked at Atwood. Last time, Atwood claimed that it was impossible to get
her back. But now, he said that there was still a chance.

The former was more realistic while the latter was rather comforting.

He still wanted to give it a try no matter what.

The maid came over with the phone that was still ringing, “Mr. James, your phone on the table is
ringing.”

Stanford reached out to pick it up and answered the call.

On the other hand, it was George’s voice, “Brother, I shouldn’t be hanging around like this anymore. I
have decided to study abroad. But before I go and study, I want to do something. Give me some time.”

Stanford replied “all alright” softly.

Atwood lowered his head and looked downwards to hide his expression.

It was in Thailand.

Amanda’s leg was healed.

Nina said, “Let’s go out and have some fun now.”



Amanda did not decline her invitation. She had stayed here for a few days and was quite close with
Nina mainly because Nina was adorable.

“Let daddy be our tour guide.” Nina wanted to go and call Joan but Amanda pulled her back, “Let’s go
together. Your daddy is very busy. It’s better not to disturb him from working.”

“But daddy has promised me.” As she just finished speaking, Joan walked over without wearing a
uniform but dressed in a casual outfit.

“Let me accompany both of you.”

Nina smiled at Amanda, “We won’t get lost if he is around.”

“Don’t you trust me?” Amanda said deliberately.

Nina replied, “No, I didn’t mean that.”

She hugged Amanda’s leg, “I just want you and daddy to go out and play with me together. Don’t be
angry.”

Amanda pinched her cheek, “I’m not angry.”

“I will drive the car.” Joan walked out first.

“Wait for us.” Nina pulled Amanda and ran over to him.

“Daddy.”

“Nina.” Joan stopped her from running, “You can’t run like that.”

Nina blinked her eyes and mumbled, “I used to run like this.”



Joan actually cared for Amanda. Her ankle was just healed and it was not suitable to run yet. He
carried and held Nina in his arm, “Can you behave like a graceful girl?”
