Chapter 604
Chapter 604 In Mr.Lyons's house.
Master Menter and Elodia were taking good care of Isabella.
Along with the two bundles of joy Ricky and Betty who were always coaxing Isabella and playing with her, Isabella found that she was living a very comfortable life now.
Mr.Lyons was usually not at home during the day.
As a councilman, Mr.Lyons was usually very busy and had a lot of matters to deal with.
Mr.Lyons and the President had been busy recently.
Isabella didn't pay much attention to them, but she knew that it was related to the crystal potion experiment.It also involved the big ship which was at the bottom of the Pacilian Ocean.
As for Isabella, she was living a comfortable life both during the day and at night.
Every night, Draxton would come to look for Isabella in secret.
When Draxton arrived, he will use the Prime Code to inform Isabella of his arrival.
Isabella would then open the window and let Draxton in.
Just like that, a few days passed.
During this time, Anna dropped by several times to visit Ziana.
On a normal day during lunch, Ziana suddenly asked about the Lang family.
Isabella was taken aback.
Isabella was very unfamiliar with the Lang family.
To Isabella, she felt that what had happened between her and the Lang family seemed to be very distinct and it was something that happened in the past.
"Master Menter, why did you suddenly mention the Lang family?" Isabella asked.
Isabella knew that Master Menter roughly knew about what had happened to her in the past.
Ziana frowned and said, "Anna seems to be in love. However, about the man that Anna is currently dating...I'm not satisfied with him."
Isabella paused as something flashed across her mind.
Isabella fell silent and stared at Ziana quietly.
Ziana also looked at Isabella and said, "The man is Jason."
Although Isabella had sort of guessed it, she was still slightly taken aback when she heard Ziana's words.
Isabella hesitated for a second before saying, "Master Menter. To me, Jason is just a stranger who is related to me by blood.
"Although I did not have a good experience with the Lang family, we cannot completely deny the existence of the Lang family. Yes, I agree that they have flaws, but they should have their merits too. "As long as Anna likes Jason and thinks that he's worthy, it's best for us not to interfere too much," Isabella said.
Ziana sighed and replied, "You're right.
Although I don't think highly of Jason, I don't dare to show my emotions in front of Anna.
"For I understood too well the pain of not being blessed and being forcibly torn apart.
"I don't want to add to Anna's worries, but I can't help but feel worried. Bella, about Jason..."
Isabella was silent for a moment before she said, "Jason had once hated me in the past. The Lang family had also paid the price and was taught a lesson because of their foolishness in trusting the wrong person.I believe that people will gain more knowledge and experience as they grow. Master Menter, why don't you meet up with Jason and try to get to know him better yourself? It's all for Anna's sake." Ziana pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll heed your advice. I'll ask them out later"
Ziana continued, "If they really end up together, won't you and Jason be meeting quite often in the future?"
Isabella said, "Master Menter, you're overthinking it. To put it bluntly, there's no deep hatred between me and Jason. It's just that I had broken off all ties with the Lang family. It's not like I can't meet with them.As long as Anna is happy, you don't have to consider my feelings."
The rims of Ziana's eyes reddened.
Isabella patted Ziana's shoulder gently and comforted her.
"Master Menter, Anna is your long lost daughter that you had finally found. It wasn't easy for you to be able to reunite with her.I am willing to accommodate Anna for as long as you cherish and love her, "Besides, Anna is only dating Jason," Isabella said with a smile.
The next day, Ziana arranged for a meetup with Anna and Jason.
However, they met up outside and did not come to the house.
At the same time, the Lockwood family.
The people from the Lockwood family's second branch came to Dawton City again.
They were here to attend Isabella's wedding.
Damon, Colin, Kim, Gary, and Kieran came to Dawton City.
As soon as Damon arrived, he looked for Sir Graham Lockwood to complain.
The main reason for Damon's complaints was because of Gary.
"That troublesome brat who is always making me worry about him. After Gary had divorced Elodia, Gary looks as if he had lost his soul.
Why do we have such a useless brat in the Lockwood family? "If Gary had known that this would happen, why would he have done so in the first place? "The same thing goes for Colin's wife.
If she had treated Elodia well back then, would things have ended up like this now? "Gary was already feeling down. On top of not feeling sorry for her son, she actually asked her family to help to introduce someone to Gary in an atter* I'd matchmake.
"It's obvious that the other party is ambitious and has ulterior motives. We're okay to close an eye if Gary likes her. However, the fact is that Gary doesn't like her but Colin's wife is forcing Gary to accept her! It's causing chaos in the family now, and Colin doesn't even care!"Letting out a sigh, Damon continued, "I'm so pissed off by my unfilial descendants that I think I might get a heart attack soon and pass away! Your family is still the best. Your children are more sensible and obedient."
Sir Graham Lockwood looked at him sympathetically and commented, "You're already so old and you still have so much to deal with. It's really not easy for you."
With a smug look on her face, Madame Emma Lockwood looked at Damon and gloated, "Why are you feeling jealous? It's all because of my teachings that the children are so well-behaved!"
Damon and Madame Emma Lockwood were known to be at odds with each other.
In particular, Damon did not like Sir Graham Lockwood's behavior of doting on Madame Emma Lockwood until she was high off her ass.
However, this time, Damon actually looked depressed and did not retort.It was rare for this to happen.
Sir Graham Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood exchanged glances and did not mock Damon anymore.
Sir Graham Lockwood said, "If you find it annoying, then you should just stay at Dawton City.It's not like the Lockwood family can't afford to feed you."
However, Damon gritted his teeth and said angrily, "I don't want to.I just don't believe that I cannot get them under control!"
On the other side, Gary was also talking to Draxton.
"Draxton, where's Isabella?" Gary asked.
Gary looked more mature than he was in the past.
Draxton sized Gary up with a sympathetic gaze.
Deciding to have a better attitude towards a bachelor, Draxton said to Gary in pity, "Bella was taken away by Mr.Lyons."
Gary was surprised and asked, "Why? Aren't you going to have your wedding soon? Did you have a fight with Isabella?"Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Draxton immediately looked at Gary in disdain and said, "How could that be? Why would I quarrel with Bella? Do you think I'm the kind of idiot who would quarrel with his wife?"
"I would only act coquettishly in front of my wife" Draxton thought to himself.
Gary was speechless.
Gary suddenly found it hard to reply to Draxton as the words that he was about to say were stuck in his throat.
With a calm tone, Gary said flatly, "Oh. You're not."
Kieran was standing beside Gary.
Raising his head, Kieran glanced at Gary indifferently with his eyes filled with disdain, "Hmph, Uncle Draxton's right. My father is an idiot." Kieran thought to himself.
As Kieran had often looked at Gary this way, Gary seemed to be used to Kieran's disdainful gaze and did not find it strange anymore.
To Kieran, he would never forget the incident where his father and grandma had nearly killed his mother.
At night, Draxton changed his clothes again and was prepared to sneak out.
Gary, who was sitting alone in the living room, happened to see Draxton.
"Draxton, where are you going?"
The lights in the living room were not switched on.
When Gary suddenly spoke up, it gave Draxton a fright.
"I have something to do, so I'm heading out," Draxton replied calmly.
Gary asked, "You're going to look for Isabella, right? I've done some investigation today. Both Elodia and Miss Ziana are currently living at Mr.Lyons's house. Draxton, can I go with you?"
