Chapter 182
Hearing this, Lucy raised his head and glanced at Arthur. He didn't even recognize Lizbeth?
"I'm Lizbeth!" Lizbeth's face was full of disbelief and her heart was filled with sadness. She had been following Arthur for so many years, how could he not recognize her?
"Harry, take Lizbeth to the police station and tell the police that she tried to kill someone!" Arthur's face was covered with dark clouds. It was Lizbeth again!
The last time she had asked someone to kidnap and rape Lucy, he had already taught her a lesson. How could she not repent!
Harry immediately came over with a person, one on the left and the other on the right, holding Lizbeth and walking out.
"Arthur, ask someone to let me go!" Lizbeth struggled desperately, but she couldn't get rid of him no matter how hard she tried. "Lucy has followed so many men, and she is pregnant with illegitimate children. I feel unfair for you, so I want to strangle her! How can you treat me like this?"
Seeing that Arthur was indifferent, she began to shout at Lucy, "Lucy, you b*tch, you're a b*tch who has been trampled on by thousands of people. You..."
"Shut her up." Arthur frowned.
Harry immediately took off his gloves, stuffed them into Lizbeth's mouth, and quickly took her out.
Ruby was watching everything from the outside. She was so frightened that her legs went limp. She
thought that Miss Byrd was at most a little bit of a b*stard. She didn't expect Miss Byrd to dare to kill someone!
She trembled her fingers and hurriedly sent a text message to Jenson about Lizbeth being taken to the police station.
Lucy sat on the sofa, her legs still a little weak. Moreover, Arthur had just saved her, but she didn't know how to face him. The atmosphere was a little awkward.
"I'll accompany you for the birth test tomorrow," Arthur suddenly said.
During this period of time, Lucy had never eaten or lost his temper. Now that he was frightened again, it was better for him to have a check-up.
Lucy subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when she thought of what had just happened, she still nodded.
Seeing that she had agreed, Arthur's tensed body relaxed a little. Only then did he size up the hall and ask, "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
"What?" Lucy was still thinking about what had just happened and did not know what to do.
It was rare for Arthur to repeat it patiently. "Elyse told me that you wanted to change your style of decoration."
When did she have such a good relationship with Elyse?
"It wasn't me." Hearing this, Lucy couldn't help but feel a little happy. The corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile. It turned out that he thought she wanted to change her style, which was why he agreed to change Elyse's style.
Arthur frowned. Why did Elyse say that to him?
Arthur frowned. Why did Elyse say that to him?
Coincidentally, Ruby walked in softly.
Arthur looked at her with sharp eyes. "Why did you tell me that Lucy wants to change the decoration style?"
Lucy also stared at Ruby. He had a vague feeling that something was wrong with what had happened recently, but he could not tell what exactly was wrong.
This person was so different from the others. Was she really Elyse? But if she wasn't Elyse, how could she explain her face?
There wouldn't be so many coincidences in the world. The only explanation was that Arthur hadn't seen Elyse for nearly twelve years, and the current Elyse had changed.
"I..." Ruby bit her lips tightly. Her brain was racing, but she could not come up with a good excuse.
Right at this moment...
"Sir, the old man called." Aunty Julianne ran over breathlessly, interrupted her, and handed the phone to Arthur.
Ruby swallowed her saliva. Her heart was still hanging high in her throat. Mr. Johnson, hurry up and answer the phone. Give her time to think of an excuse!
Arthur frowned at her and went to answer the phone. "Grandpa."
"Take Lizbeth and Lucy to the old house. Don't refuse," the old man said angrily and directly hung up the phone.
If someone else said that, Arthur wouldn't take it seriously. But this was his grandfather whom he respected the most since he was a child. He couldn't refuse his grandfather's request.
There was a hint of unhappiness in his eyes, but in the end, he called Harry and said, "Take Lizbeth to the old house."
...
An hour later, Lucy entered the main hall of the Johnson family's old house.
Lizbeth was sitting on the sofa and complaining about her crime. "Master Johnson, Lucy drugged Arthur and then climbed into his bed. She is such a b*tch. How could there be no other man in the five years after she left Arthur? Maybe she is pregnant with an illegitimate child!"
"I used to have a good relationship with Arthur, but since Lucy came back a few months ago, I don't know what she did to Arthur. Arthur hates me more and more, and our relationship is in danger..."
As she spoke, she didn't seem to be affected by Lucy's arrival at all. In fact, the more she spoke, the more excited she became. Her saliva almost sprayed on the old man's face.
The old man's expression became more and more ugly. In the end, he had no choice but to interrupt her. "Is Lizbeth thirsty? Kary, pour some water for her!"
He was old, but his eyes were not blind, ears were not deaf, and he could tell right from wrong.
The girl from the Byrd family was getting more and more ridiculous. Her brain seemed to be a little abnormal!
"I'm not thirsty, Master Johnson..." Lizbeth wanted to continue to complain. She must ask Master Johnson to drive Lucy away!
But the old man didn't want to hear it. He smiled and waved to Lucy, Arthur. "Caden, help Lucy to sit down. When a woman is pregnant, don't be tired."
As soon as Lucy was about to sit down, she was grabbed by a big warm hand. She looked up and saw the tenderness in Arthur's eyes that had not yet been restrained.
However, this gentleness only flashed by for a moment, and it was so fast that she suspected that she had been dazzled.
"Sit down." Arthur held her arm. His voice was cold and completely different from the warmth in his hand.
Lucy mocked himself. She had just been dazzled. How could he be gentle to her?
"How could that b*tch be so precious..." Lizbeth muttered in a neither loud nor low voice, and everyone pretended not to hear her.
The old man was getting more and more dissatisfied with her, but considering the precarious relationship between the two families, he still said, "Lucy, I know you have been wronged, but the Byrd family has always had a good relationship with our Johnson family. It will be a pity if we become enemies because of such a small thing!"
This meant that he was going to sacrifice her. Lucy lowered his eyes and didn't say anything in agreement.
She didn't want to make herself suffer, but she didn't want to offend the old master either.
The old man coughed twice. "Lucy, what do you think?"
He was forcing her to reply. Lucy stood up and said softly, "You are an elder. You have the final say."
"It means that juniors like me don't care about it. Anyway, you have the final say. You can do whatever you want!"
The old man was speechless.
The patriarch's mother he chose was really cunning. Her words were full of hidden meaning!
"Master Johnson, look at how despicable she is. She doesn't have the self-awareness of a junior!"All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Lizbeth only hated that she had been too slow. If she had been faster, she would have killed Lucy before Arthur came! Anyway, her family had connections. If she killed someone, she would have been in jail for a few months at most!
