Chapter 173 - 176: Aidan Lucas is my husband
“You… you unfilial thing! I am your own grandmother! If I had known you would be like this, I would have kicked you and your mother out of the Gray family after Everest left!”
Madam Gray couldn’t pretend to be a loving grandmother any longer and stood up, pointing at Lily Gray’s nose and cursing her.
Rowena Gray followed suit and cursed as well, but Milly Gray, concerned about her image, only glared at Lily fiercely.
Lily snorted coldly, “Oh, weren’t you just acting kindly and mercifully earlier? Why have you stopped pretending now?”
She looked at Madam Gray as if she were a stranger.
“It’s a good thing you still remember that you’re my own grandmother. Ha… ridiculous. Turns out there really are grandmothers in this world who conspire with their granddaughters to steal their own grandchildren’s spouses. Madam Gray, to be honest, with a grandmother like you… I, Lily Gray, would rather not have one!”
“You- you ungrateful wretch-” Madam Gray raised her hand, seemingly ready to slap Lily.
The robust man in black stepped forward, and Madam Gray was immediately frightened into retracting her hand.
She almost forgot that Lily was escorted by two bodyguards this time.
Madam Gray’s timid appearance made Lily despise her even more. Her own grandmother had always been like this – bullying the weak and fearing the strong, impressive only on the surface.
Now that the shares had been transferred, Lily didn’t want to waste any more time with them and stood up to leave.
Madam Gray was wary of the two bodyguards and didn’t dare to stop her.
However, Milly couldn’t let go of this opportunity and kept winking at her from behind.
She really couldn’t bear to see her granddaughter-in-law cry, so she reluctantly tried to stop Lily.
“Lily… child, don’t go! Your grandmother was just angry for a moment. Look at your stubborn temper, how can you have a dispute with your grandmother, an elder!”
Madam Gray chased after Lily, still coaxing, “What your grandmother said is for your own good. Look at you, you’ve been married before, and your temper is still so stubborn. One day, you’ll upset Mr. Lucas. Milly is your cousin, she has a good personality, and is obviously a blessed child. If you take her back with you, not only can she help you, but she won’t forget you, her sister, if she marries Mr. Lucas.”
The Gray family genuinely believed that Lily was just Mr. Lucas’s plaything.
A plaything, something to be discarded after playing.
Instead of letting her be spoiled for a while and then thrown away, it would be better to let Milly take her place, and she might even marry Mr. Lucas.
Madam Gray tried to reach out and pull Lily, but Lily shook her hand off.
Sometimes Lily really couldn’t understand, was Madam Gray truly her own grandmother?
How could she say such things without feeling guilty!?
“Madam Gray, do you even know what you’re saying?” Lily squinted, the faint fire in her eyes visible.
Madam Gray unconsciously took a step back.
She had never been afraid of Lily before, but for some reason, she felt a sense of fear for the first time when she looked at Lily now.
Her granddaughter’s squinting expression was just too similar to someone else’s.
It was as if, three days ago, she had seen Mr. Lucas in court.
The slightly narrowed cold eyes carried a sense of deterrence and authority.
Lily didn’t know she had gradually adopted a demeanor similar to Aidan Lucas’s. She squinted at Madam Gray and spoke word by word.
“I will only tell you once.” She rarely used her current status to put pressure on people, but that didn’t mean she wouldn’t.
“Aidan Lucas is my husband. If you even think about making a move on him again, don’t blame me for being rude.”
With that, she left.
Only the shocked Gray family was left behind..
