FreeNovelChapter 192 Then, an old man walked down the stairs. He was holding a cane, and his steps were a little unsteady, but he still started walking faster.
"Is Loid back? Cquickly and letlook at you. I haven't seen you in months. I miss you so much." The old man was Loid's grandfather, Arthur Laurier. He was 70 years old. His face was full of wrinkles, and his head of hair was almost completely ashen.
He walked over to Loid and held his hand. Tears of happiness welled up in his eyes. "This is great. Your illness is finally cured. Finally, you've recovered to your former appearance." "Hi, Grandpa," Loid said softly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLily could tell that Loid didn't sound annoyed when he was talking with Arthur. There was a hint of politeness and respect in his tone.
Arthur was probably the only person in the family other than his parents he would treat with such respect. "Didn't you bring your fiancée home? Where is she? Lettake a look at her." Arthur looked around the house. In the end, his gaze landed on Lily.
Loid waved at Lily, and she walked over to them. Then, she greeted Arthur politely, "Hi, Mr. Laurier Senior." "Wow, this lass sure is pretty. Loid, you're so lucky to marry such a pretty lady." Arthur was quite fond of Lily. S~Earch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
The other members of the Laurier family exchanged glances in secret.
Then, Nora sneered. “Dad, don't celebrate too early. I heard that his fiancée is from the countryside. She's an ignoramus. She also often gets into fights and skips classes. Her grades are also horrendous. If a person like her becomes a part of the family, she'll only bring shto our family." In truth, everyone in the family knew who Lily was when she walked in with Loid. They had already looked into her background before Loid even arrived in Bridgeport.
The reason why no one talked to her a while before was because they were presenting a united front. None of them felt the need to speak to a country bumpkin. They didn't think they needed to show a nobody like her any respect.
Besides, Joanne was present, too. They all knew Joanne was there to talk about a marriage between the two families again. That was why they wouldn't show Lily any kindness while Joanne was there.
"So what if she's from the countryside?" Arthur's expression turned sour when he heard what Nora said. Then, he said, "My father was from the countryside, too. His hard work laid the foundation for the Laurier family of today. What? Are you looking down on your grandfather as well?" "I would never do that." Nora was humbled publicly, so her expression was a little sullen. But she still didn't dare to express her dissatisfaction before Arthur.

"She's Loid's fiancée, not yours. It's fine as long as he's happy with her. Why are you complaining?" "I..." Before she could say anything else, Arthur waved at her dismissively. “Alright, that's enough. Loid has just chome. I don't want to get angry and scare him away. Just take a seat, all of you." The Lauriers quickly got seated, and Yolanda went to sit next to Loid.
All the chairs were soon taken up. Lily was the only one one standing because there weren't any chairs left for her.
The other members of the Laurier family pretended not to notice.
Loid's expression darkened immediately. He was about to stand up when Lily suddenly walked over to Yolanda and said nonchalantly, "Please move. You're in my seat."
Yolanda couldn't believe that Lily would ask her to move wit move with people watching, so she was stunned. The content is on So many novelenglish.net! "What did you say?" "What? Are you deaf?" RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
