Chapter 1001 -1004: Indulging Villains Will Backfire
Charles Taylor scrambled up from the ground and ran over furiously.
“Old Hag—Old Hag let go of my sister! You Old Hag, stop bullying my sister, I’ll beat you to death, beat you to death!”
Since no one had noticed Charles Taylor’s movements beforehand, when he suddenly burst out from the crowd and threw himself at the grandmother, everyone was caught completely off guard.
The grandmother was in the midst of slapping someone, delivering heavy blows to Milly Gray’s face, each slap causing her entire face to swell.
Just as she found satisfaction in her actions, something suddenly pushed her from the side.
The old lady’s age meant she was unsteady on her feet, and this sudden little silhouette pushed her to the ground.
“Ah, Auntie—”
“Old Lady—”
The crowd was in chaos, fumbling to help the old lady up from the ground, only to discover that there was blood beneath her hair.
“What is this…”
Emily Taylor, trembling, turned the old lady over and noticed that when she fell, the back of her head had struck a broken dinner plate.
That broken dinner plate had likely been knocked to the ground during the struggle between Simon Taylor and Dominic Taylor.
“Quick, call an ambulance, take her to the hospital—”
In the panic, no one knew who suddenly pushed Charles Taylor from the back door, sending his small body tumbling to the ground.
After he pushed the old lady down, he was shocked and stood still, dazed.
Being suddenly pushed from behind before he could react, he fell to the ground along with Milly Gray.
This fall was serious.
Simon Taylor, as if possessed, broke free from Dominic Taylor and lunged at Milly Gray.
“Milly, Milly… Milly, you can’t be hurt! You absolutely cannot be hurt!”
Milly Gray lay beside the old lady in an unwished-for position.
When the old lady fell, Simon Taylor hadn’t reacted so strongly, but now that Milly Gray fell, Simon Taylor…
The old lady had only bled from the back of her head and was not completely unconscious.
In a daze, she saw her protégés, Simon Taylor and Charles Taylor, both screaming and fussing over Milly Gray beside her.
And by her side… there were only other Taylors.
In that instant, the old woman’s heart grew cold.
This stark and cruel contrast destroyed all her past beliefs and pride with brutal finality.
Moments later, the ambulance arrived, and Emily Taylor and Dominic Taylor, along with a group of Taylors, escorted the old woman onto the ambulance.
Simon Taylor, accompanying Milly Gray, took Charles Taylor onto the ambulance as well.
What was supposed to be a splendid birthday feast ended with only Lily, Aidan Lucas, and Ben Lucas remaining. 𝒏𝒐𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
“Aidan Lucas, what do we do now?”
She held Ben Lucas in her arms and turned to ask the man beside her.
The commotion with the family had gone on for too long, and Ben Lucas had fallen asleep in her arms.
The man looked down, meeting her inquiring gaze, and spoke indifferently, “Let’s go home.”

When Aidan Lucas said he would take her home, he actually meant it.
Of course, it wasn’t the Lucas family’s mansion, nor the villa at Blue Bay Estates, but his condominium downtown.
In the car, Lily held the sleeping Ben Lucas and whispered to him, bargaining, “I was perfectly fine staying at the hotel, why do I have to go back with you?”
She hadn’t agreed to cohabiting with him yet.
Even though now, their relationship was practically no different from cohabiting.
“What, you don’t want to go to my place?”
The man glanced at her, his cold eyes containing a warning.
It was as if he was saying, you’re asking nonsense, and if you dare say ‘no’, tonight you won’t be able to get out of bed.
