Chapter 657: Chapter 660: Oliver Ford’s Arrangements (Extra 4)
“Lily, are you really going to never see your mother again?”
After Bella Scott was once again driven away, Emily Taylor asked Lily Gray worriedly.
“I…”
“No.” She didn’t even get to finish her words, Aidan Lucas domineeringly held Lily Gray in his arms and declared his possession, “From now on, Lily is just our Lucas family daughter-in-law. Mom, don’t side with the Ford family.”
Emily Taylor was speechless at Aidan Lucas.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
He was acting like someone was trying to bully Lily.
She asked this only because she was afraid that Lily would feel sad.
After all, they were her biological parents. If she really severed ties with them, she would feel somewhat suffocated.
“Mom, don’t worry. My brother… he came to see me in private…” Lily Gray hesitated for a moment before telling the truth.
“When did the Ford family come to see you in private? How come I don’t know about it?” As expected, as soon as she said it, Aidan Lucas’s face darkened.
He didn’t have a good impression of the Ford family members who always urged them to get a divorce.
“Well, we talked on the phone. I was angry at the time. Now that I think about it, my brother didn’t do anything wrong. So… when he called again yesterday, I answered.”
Lily Gray was afraid Aidan Lucas would get angry, so she smiled at him pleasingly while talking.
The man, who had originally been cold-faced, immediately softened when he saw her sweet smile.
He tried to maintain a poker face, saying, “From now on, no more hiding things from me.”
“Yes, I didn’t find the chance to tell you yesterday… I didn’t mean to hide it from you.” Her lochia had finally stopped a few days ago.
Last night, when Aidan Lucas came home, he pinned her down on the bed.
But halfway through, Ben Lucas suddenly cried.
She hurriedly pushed the man off her and went to soothe the baby, only managing to sleep in the middle of the night.
Not telling him about it was not intentional.
“Tell me honestly, what did Oliver Ford want with you?”
Aidan Lucas was not worried about Oliver Ford.
He could see that, among the Ford family members, it was Oliver who was the kindest to Lily.
But, thinking about the man who was always hugging Lily, Aidan Lucas felt a surge of jealousy.
“My brother said that he decided to open a subsidiary of the Ford company in A City. He also said…”
“What else did he say?” Aidan Lucas narrowed his eyes, having a bad feeling.
“He also said that he will take care of the A City branch for now. But, the CEO of the company will be me.”
The Ford family’s main base had always been in M Country, and despite their wealth, they had little influence in A City.
To establish a branch in A City, they definitely needed to make plenty of preparations in advance, which was why Oliver had been preoccupied lately.
He felt that if his sister married into A City and the Ford family had no one left in A City.
If something went wrong with Lily and Aidan’s marriage one day, she wouldn’t even have a family member to back her up.
Lily Gray volunteered to explain, “My brother is afraid that you’ll change your heart in the future and there will be no one to support me. So, he said that if he gives me another company, even if something really happens, I’ll have the courage later on.”
Actually, Oliver Ford’s exact words were, ‘A man like Aidan Lucas must have countless admirers outside. Moreover, his status is too high. If he ever treats you unfairly someday, I’m afraid you won’t have the courage to resist. However, if you have a listed company in your hands, even if Aidan Lucas does wrong by you one day, you can bravely propose a divorce. Rest assured, even if it means making enemies with the Lucas family, Dad and I will stand by your side!’
Because he mentioned the word ‘divorce,’ Lily Gray dared not tell Aidan Lucas.
“Hmph, your brother sure thinks a lot…” To Lily Gray’s surprise, Aidan Lucas didn’t say much.
He just held her and began kissing her right in front of his mother.
Lily Gray didn’t know that there was a man who went even further than her brother.
Not just one listed company, he almost gave her half of his fortune.
