Chapter 99
"Mommy, are you not feeling well?" Caden reached out her little hand to test the temperature of her forehead and asked worriedly.
Lucy took a deep breath and smiled. "It's fine. The air conditioner in the car is too cold, making me feel a bit cold."
Caden blinked her eyes, lowered the temperature in the car, and continued to play with the Magic Cube.
He rubbed his little head and looked forward.
In just one or two minutes, this place attracted a group of people who were watching the fun. Many people were holding their mobile phones to record.
"Mom, I was the one who gave her the money. What are you asking her to pay for? Do you want to lose face?" Josh was 12 years old, but he was taller than his peers. He looked no different from a boy of 16 or 17 years old.
He reached out to pull Mrs. Morgan and said impatiently, "Let go of me!"
"Josh, get out of my way!" Mrs. Morgan was not sure if she was tired or angry. She blushed and said, "The Figueroa family doesn't pay, and Mr. Johnson doesn't pay either. We don't have any money to spend at home! This little b*tch has to pay back!"
"Josh, pull your mother away!" Many people were watching, and the woman blushed with shame.
Hearing her shout, Josh became anxious. "Mom, don't touch her. I've slept with her. Maybe she has a grandson in her belly!"
"!" Lucy had long known that her younger brother was a frivolous person, but he did not expect that a twelve-year-old child like him would dare to do such a thing!
Mrs. Morgan was also stunned. Her son had actually slept with this woman?
While she was in a daze, the woman broke free from her grip, and the man beside her kicked Josh to the ground.
When he saw his younger brother being beaten, Lucy frowned, but in the end, he didn't go out.
Her little brother had been spoiled by her parents for a long time. It was not necessarily a bad thing to suffer losses outside! Moreover, she had finally drawn a clear line with the vampires in her family. She didn't want to lose everything!
"Why did you hit me?" Josh's face twisted in pain.
The man's angry voice came through the mask. "You f*cking slept with my woman, and you asked me why I hit you? I hit you!"
While he was talking, the man kicked Josh a few more times.
Lucy had felt that the man looked familiar before, but when she heard the voice at this moment, she suddenly realized—
So it was Nick!
She only knew that her brother had rewarded a lot of money to a female streamer, but she didn't know that the female streamer was Nick's new girlfriend!
Josh covered his stomach and stepped back. He was so painful that his forehead was sweating. "I... I warn you. My brother-in-law is Mr. Johnson. If you hit me, Mr. Johnson... Mr. Johnson will not let you go!"
In the car.
Caden was stunned. "Is this man, who is like a gangster, his biological uncle?"
"Caden." Lucy turned his head and looked at him. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "I'll find a time to tell you about your grandmother and the others."
Usually, as long as she did not mention that family, she would never mention it!
"Mommy, if you don't want to say it, then don't say it. I don't want to hear it either. It's enough to have Mommy, Grandpa, Grandma, and Aunt Kylah." Caden approached her and kissed her gently on the face.
Outside the car.
"Your sister is Lucy? Do you think I'm afraid of that bitch?" Nick had already accumulated a lot of anger in his heart. At this moment, when he heard the name Lucy, his anger doubled and he beat her even
harder.
Seeing that her precious son had been beaten, Mrs. Morgan threw herself at Nick like crazy. "Where did you come from? Why did you hit my son? You hate that little b*tch Lucy. Why did you hit my son?"
Her move, Nick, was unable to withstand it. The mask and sunglasses on her face had been scratched off!
"Look, it's Nick!" Someone in the crowd shouted, and then everyone began to get excited.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Nick quickly ran away.
His girlfriend stood up and followed him, followed by Josh and his mother, followed by a crowd of onlookers.
The road instantly became spacious.
Lucy looked at the group of people's backs, and then drove home with a heavy heart.
With such a ruckus, it was very likely that Nick would accidentally reveal that she was still alive. At that time, her mother and brother would very likely come knocking on her door, and her five years of peaceful life would be gone!
...
Lucy accompanied the little fellow to the chess competition and got the prize. After having lunch with several leaders of the organizer, Lucy sent the little fellow to the Figueroa family, and then she drove to
the hospital.
"You asked Chad to keep such a big thing from me. Did you take me, your mother, seriously? To be honest, did this car accident have something to do with that vixen Lucy?"
As soon as Lucy arrived at the door of the ward, he heard Mrs. Johnson's angry roar.
When she first arrived at the Johnson family, this mother-in-law still liked her. But five years had passed, and she had become a vixen in her mother-in-law's mouth?
"Sister-in-law, you're here." Chad opened the door and came out. When he saw Lucy, he was shocked at first, and then embarrassed.
"My sister-in-law must have heard your mother's scolding, right?"
Lucy nodded slightly. Under Chad's incomparably nervous gaze, he sat down on a chair outside the ward.
If she wanted to be with Arthur, she couldn't make things too ugly with her mother-in-law.
"Your father gave a gift and an apology during this period of time. It took Mr. Byrd a lot of effort to convince you that the two companies worked together. However, you sent a piece of news, which directly made your father's hard work go down the drain!" It was unknown what Arthur said, but Mrs. Johnson's topic shifted to the cooperation between the two companies.
Chad looked at Lucy, who was sitting silently on the chair, and felt a little relieved. Fortunately, his aunt did not scold his sister-in-law anymore. Otherwise, he would be very embarrassed here!
However —
"Caden, I don't care what you think, but you must divorce that vixen! Look at what happened after she came back? First, the Byrd family had a conflict with our family, and then you had a car accident. Lucy is a jinx!" Mrs. Johnson seemed to be angry, and her voice was raised a lot.
Chad was speechless.
"Mother, can you keep your voice down when you scold others? The person involved is listening outside!"
He stole a glance at Lucy, who didn't seem to have heard anything. With a hollow laugh, he walked over and closed the ward's window.
If he closed the window, he wouldn't be able to hear what was said inside, right?
Lucy quietly looked out of the window, glad that he didn't bring Caden with him.
He had always been very resistant to Arthur. If he heard his mother-in-law cursing him like this again, he would definitely not agree to her being with Arthur!
Moreover, Caden and Arthur looked so similar. When her mother-in-law saw them, she would definitely doubt Caden's identity!
"You've grown up and become disobedient, haven't you? Caden, I'm telling you, no matter whether you agree or not, you will divorce Lucy sooner or later!" From the outside, Mrs. Johnson's voice was muchNôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
softer, but she could still hear it clearly.
Chad was speechless.
So, why did he come out just now?
If he didn't come out, he wouldn't be so embarrassed now!
