Chapter 980 -983 Undermining behind the scenes (Extra 3)
Now, in Emily Taylor’s heart, Lily Gray was a girl with a deep-seated scheme, who had approached Aidan Lucas under the guise of being Alice.
She couldn’t bear it, and lowering her voice, said to Aidan Lucas, “Ethan, give Mom a little time after dinner. I have some things I want to talk to you about.”
Having said that, Emily Taylor glanced at Lily with disappointment and accusation in her eyes.
She hadn’t expected Lily’s tactics to be so formidable.
Not only had she won over the second personality of Ethan, but she had also captured Ben Lucas’s heart.
This woman was terrifying, extremely terrifying.
To the men of the Lucas family, she seemed to be a natural-born nemesis.
The look Emily Taylor gave Lily was full of warning as if to tell her she would never let her succeed.
“Alright, alright, it’s nothing… Let’s all take our seats. Everyone is here, let’s not delay any longer.”
Emily Taylor turned around, revealing a dignified and graceful smile, as the others immediately pretended nothing was wrong and followed to take their seats.
After receiving Emily Taylor’s warning gaze, Lily felt somewhat uneasy.
She felt guilty toward Emily and also afraid of what she might say to Aidan Lucas later.
If Aidan Lucas found out the truth, would he blame her and not let her stay by his side?
If he wanted to send her away, what would she do then? 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓾𝒷.𝒸ℴ𝓂
How could she cure the dual personalities, and what about Ben, what should she do about him?
As she worried, the man embracing her pecked her cheek gently and said, “Stop worrying aimlessly all the time. You are my woman. With me here, no one dares to touch you.”
His tone was indifferent, even carrying a hint of coldness.
Unlike the lazy rasp when his first personality spoke sweet nothings, which carried a hint of warmth.
The second personality of Aidan Lucas, even when speaking romantically, was so cold and rigid.
But for some reason, hearing his words this time made Lily feel touched.
She deliberately ignored the hostile looks from everyone in the room and leaned on Aidan Lucas’s shoulder, tugging gently at the cuff of his sleeve.
Softly she said, “Ethan, thank you.”
“Hmm,” the man hummed from his nostrils, and a trace of warmth finally appeared in his austere eyes.
Their seemingly intimate actions, oblivious to others, seemed too close for comfort in the eyes of everyone else.
Even though Milly Gray had given up on Aidan Lucas, she couldn’t help but scoff, “Humph, she’s practically clinging to Brother Ethan, that woman really has no shame. Aunt, don’t be fooled by her innocent looks, she’s actually worse than snakes and scorpions.”
“Could that be? That child seems quite obedient.”
Milly Gray, along with Charles Taylor, was assisting the old lady to take her seat.
She whispered to the old lady, “Obedient? The mother of Paul was framed by that woman and is now locked up in the detention centre. Aunt, if you don’t believe me, you can go ask Dad. Dad would never lie to you.”
Upon hearing this, the old lady was alarmed. No wonder Emily had seemed not to like that girl; it turned out that the child was the cause of Paul’s mother’s misfortune.
What a sin!
Such a young child now without a mother, the old lady looked at Charles Taylor with endless sympathy.
Charles Taylor, receiving the old lady’s pitiful gaze, immediately followed suit, “Aunt, that woman is really bad. She hit Sister last time at the banquet, and she hit Paul too. If Auntie hadn’t come, Paul would have been badly bullied by that woman!”
“There was such a thing!?” The old lady, upon hearing Charles Taylor’s words, felt her anger rising.
However, considering everyone had already started taking seats and it was not good to make a scene, she could only comfort Charles Taylor, “Don’t worry, Auntie won’t let Paul be bullied for nothing. Later, Auntie will personally avenge you!”
“Good, Auntie is the best, Paul loves Auntie the most.”
Just then, everyone was arranging for the old lady to take her seat, and she immediately said.
“Come, Paul. Didn’t you want to sit with Auntie? Come here, keep Auntie company.”
