Chapter 1578: Chapter 1581: What, My Eldest Brother Has Sought Refuge with Theodore Lucas!? (Additional Chapter 3)
“Yes, indeed…” Emily Taylor nodded, her head already bowed low.
There was no need for her to explain further, as Lily and Sebastian Lucas VII both understood.
Simon Taylor had tricked Emily Taylor into lowering her guard and allowed Milly Gray to enter.
However, Milly Gray clearly did not keep her promise.
She not only brought a large number of people but also attempted to kidnap Charles Taylor.
“Mom, let it go.” Lily was worried but also understood that Emily did not know the whole truth.
“You can’t be blad for this. It was my and Ethan Wilson’s oversight for not informing you about Simon Taylor siding with Theodore Lucas.”
They intended to speak of it last ti but were interrupted.
Afterward, they got busy with other matters, and both her and Mr. Lucas ended up forgetting about Emily.
After all, it was their oversight.
“What, my elder brother siding with Theodore Lucas?!” Emily Taylor exclaid in disbelief, “How is that possible? How could my brother possibly side with Theodore Lucas!!!”
That was her own dear elder brother!
The one who once grabbed Theodore Lucas by the collar, ready to fight to the death for her sake; the brother who would risk his life for her!
Emily had thought that after the scandals of Rowena Gray and Milly Gray, the relationship between the siblings could never return to how it was in the past.
But she never expected that one day her own dear brother would betray her and side with Theodore Lucas.
“What does he want to do? Does he want to help Theodore Lucas and that illegitimate child against Ethan Wilson? Has Simon Taylor… has he gone mad!?”
Emily Taylor felt an itching hatred and wanted nothing more than to confront Simon right away and demand answers.
“Perhaps,” Lily sighed, “Or perhaps he wasn’t mad at first, but after letting Milly Gray whisper into his ear, he went mad with her.”
“Milly Gray…” The usually gentle and graceful woman’s eyes narrowed fiercely, revealing a deep loathing.
Emily now wished she could flay Milly Gray and devour her flesh.
She should never have let that mother and daughter pair from the Gray family, those good-for-nothings, get close to her elder brother!
If not for them, Simon Taylor wouldn’t have turned out like this.
“Alright, Mom, it’s no use getting angry over this now. What we can do now is just be on our guard against them. Oh, and you’d better also ntion this to the rest of the Taylors. I’m afraid Simon Taylor might exploit past relationships and make his move through other mbers of the Taylors.”
“Yes, yes… you’re right, we indeed need to be wary of them,” Emily Taylor fervently wished she could see Dominic Taylor right now.
She and Dominic Taylor had been waiting for the day when Simon Taylor would abandon Milly Gray and return to the fold.
Unexpectedly, he had beco more deeply mired instead.
Seeing that Emily Taylor was gradually calming down, Lily then turned to Sebastian Lucas VII.
“Sebastian Lucas VII, now that Mom and I are both here, please tell us about what you’ve uncovered during this ti,” she said.
She hadn’t forgotten the purpose of her return; she had co back to clear away the plots and sches of Theodore Lucas on behalf of Mr. Lucas.
“Yes, during this ti we discovered that Theodore Lucas, together with Nolan Lucas, has been visiting all the shareholders of the Royal Palace and the heads of the Lucas family’s branches.”
Before this, Emily Taylor already knew about the activities from Theodore Lucas’s side.
Therefore, hearing Sebastian Lucas VII say this, she was not surprised.
She could even reply with cold sarcasm.
“Theodore Lucas wants to introduce that illegitimate child to people. Hmph… eting those shareholders might be possible, but those branch heads will definitely not see him.”
The rules of the Lucas family are strict, and head of each branch must remain one hundred percent loyal to the Lucas family and the head of the Lucas family.
Even if they internally disagreed with the choice of head of the family, once a new head is chosen, they’re not allowed to betray him.
Because to betray the head of the main family implies that branch heads could one day be betrayed by their subordinates.
Thus, to maintain their own positions, no one would be foolish enough to betray the main family.
