Chapter 1472: Chapter 1475: Mr. Theodore Lucas, How Can You Be So Shaless (Extra 1)
“How could you not understand, Dad did all this actually for…”
“Mr. Lucas, please wait a mont.” Just as Theodore Lucas was about to perform emotionally, Lily suddenly stops him.
“Mr. Lucas, I am Lily Redington, Ethan Wilson’s fiancée. Sorry to interrupt you… This is actually my first ti eting you, and I wanted to introduce myself, and also say hello.”
Lily’s deanor is especially sincere, her face sweetly smiling with a touch of shyness.
It looks very much like a daughter-in-law eting her future father-in-law for the first ti, shy and embarrassed.
“Lily Redington… Oh, I know you, the daughter of Duke Redington.” Theodore Lucas’ gentle expression turned serious, seemingly displeased by Lily’s identity.
As a rival to Aidan, naturally, he wouldn’t want his son to have the support of the Reddington family.
Theodore Lucas stiffens his face and looks at Lily with a judgntal gaze.
“Your father, Duke Redington, is really too reckless. Even though it’s not nice to say this at our first eting, Miss Redington, I am sorry to tell you, as the Pri Minister of Eastonia and Ethan’s father, I’m afraid I can’t accept you as my daughter-in-law.”
“My woman, doesn’t need your approval,” Aidan coldly retorts.
However, at this mont, Lily stops him, “Ethan, don’t say that, I think what Mr. Lucas said is right.”
“Lily, how could you…”
Lily, holding onto Aidan, smiles at him: “Was Mr. Lucas wrong? He said it’s our first eting, and indeed, it is our first eting, right?”
“I’ve been with you for five years. During these years, we t your grandmother together, t your mother, t other heads of the Lucas family branches, and I even gave birth to three lovely babies for you.”
“However, during all this ti, I have never t your father. Until today, I finally t this legendary Mr. Lucas… Well, five years without seeing him once, yet he pretends to be a caring father.”
Lily spoke while holding Aidan’s arm, addressing Theodore Lucas standing opposite them.
“Mr. Lucas, your acting is really terrible. It’s easily debunked, better not to act at all. After all… who in Eastonia doesn’t know that you are a scoundrel who abandoned your wife and family for a mistress and an illegitimate child? If I were you, I wouldn’t have the face to pretend to be a caring father, it’s shaful and embarrassing!”
Theodore Lucas was scolded by Lily and couldn’t think of any words to retaliate.
He had been too careless, seeing Lily, an underestimated young girl, he fell into her trap.
Five years, five years during which he hadn’t seen any of his grandchildren, nor this woman.
Theodore Lucas felt the gazes from the surrounding people turning from disdain to mockery.
For the first ti, he felt defeated and regretful.
The reason he never made a big fuss about leaving the Lucas family was to protect his public image.
And now, as the Pri Minister of a country, always maintaining a noble image, and yet, just…
“Lily Redington, watch your mouth!” Seeing Theodore Lucas’ dejected look, Nolan Lucas couldn’t help but point at Lily.
“This is Eastonia, not Europe, it’s not your turn to flaunt power! People from the Reddington family have no right to appear here, nor do they have the right to attend our Eastonian gala. You, get out of here now!”
“Whether I have the right or not, it’s not up to you,” David Redington steps forward, blocking Nolan Lucas and Lily.
Lily can’t be bothered with Nolan, but David can’t stand seeing his sister being bullied.
“And who are you?” Nolan squints his eyes.
“? Hah…” David smirks, a gleam in his deep blue eyes, “I am Lily’s brother.”
[Author’s Note] I’ll continue writing. My hand still hasn’t fully recovered, can’t write if it gets worse, but I will make up for it on the weekend.
