Spoiled by Mr. Russell
Glancing at Lily, Jonathan cleared his throat and said, âWe must thoroughly investigate your grandfatherâs death. However, you two insist on your own words, and it is difficult to tell the difference for now, but donât worry. Since Iâve taken over the family, I will give you a satisfactory answer.â
Sure enough, Lily wanted to get out of the way, sneering, âGranduncle, everyone understands the truth, but there should always be a conclusion. We mustnât delay Grandpaâs burial. At least. there should be a time limit, right?â
âWhy are you so anxious? Are you guilty?â Jonathan said unhappily after giving her a side. glance.
âThereâs no point in arguing anymore, and it doesnât matter whether or not Iâm guilty. What matters is the result. I only hope to find out the cause of grandpaâs death.â Lily did not want to take a step back and continued, âThe elders are here today. Since Granduncle Jonathan is in charge of the family now, I believe I can convince everyone with actions instead of empty promises. How about three days?â
âOnly three?â
âIâm sure everyone will want to know the final result within three days.â
âAll right! Three days!â Henry interrupted because Jonathan could speak, âStill, Lily, you can only stay here for these three days and nowhere else to prevent someone from taking the opportunity to escape.
All Lodge family members cannot leave Sapphine within the next three days.â
âJustin, what do you think?â After speaking, he looked at Justin slightly provocatively.
Justin nodded expressionlessly, âI have no opinions on this.â
They had settled the matter for the time being. Lily took a deep look at her grandfatherâs posthumous photo. No matter what happened, she would seek justice for her grandfather.
The older adults dispersed. Lily quickly stood in Justinâs way, âJustin, youâ¦â
âDidnât I tell you not to come back?â After interrupting her words, Justin sighed softly, â Forget it. You can stay for a while. You must be tired coming all the way here. Take a good rest.
Hearing his words meant a lot. She looked sideways and noticed everyone in the family was busy.
Even so, they perked up their ears.
âOkay, let me know if you need me,â she went out after saying that.
Alexander sat in the living room drinking tea, looking calm and composed, without any anxiety.
While walking out, it seemed as if Lily knew Alexander was sitting there. She raised her eyes and looked over. The two of them looked at each other. At that moment, Lily felt more relaxed, as if her burdens had lightened.
She walked quickly in his direction, âDid they give you a hard time?â
âIâm your husband, which means Iâm also part of the family. How would they give me a hard.
time?â Alexander raised his lips and smiled. âHave you paid your respects to your grandfather?
âYeah,â Lily nodded and continued, âLetâs stay here for the next two days.â
âOkay,â Alexander replied without asking any further.
The property was substantial; even if all the elders lived in the front and rear buildings, there would be enough space for more guests.
Of course, most elders lived in this city, and everyone agreed they could not exit Sapphine. However, they never mentioned not being allowed to go home, so most who lived in the city returned to their respective homes.
Henry stayed in the main building and seemed to calm down after everyone dispersed, but most understood that the dark waves behind the calmness were turbulent.
The disciples of the Lodge family did not practice kickboxing today as they were mourning instead, they stood near a window and looked outside.
The empty courtyard looked extraordinarily deserted. Thinking about how orderly things were in the past, Lily suddenly missed those days when they were training through blood and sweat âAlthough the weather is getting warmer, itâs still cold during the morning and evening,â Alexander put a coat on Lily from behind and took her into his arms.
Lily leaned her head back into her husbandâs arms and looked at the scenery outside, âI jus feel that some peopleâs hearts are colder than winter.â
