Easton Hols bowed to apologize, and not only Christopher Turner was surprised, but the other three people were also very astonished, especially Lily Turner, who felt completely overturned in her understanding of Easton after witnessing this.
While Lily was staring at Easton in a daze, Michael Linton spoke up from the side, "My sister just has that kind of temper. I hope you won’t mind too much, but I can assure you, Lily will not suffer any harm at our ho."
With his father protecting them, he didn’t believe his sister could cause any trouble, especially since the newlyweds wouldn’t be living at the Hols Residence, making it inconvenient for his sister to stir up trouble.
Hearing Michael Linton’s assurance, Christopher Turner’s expression beca slightly unnatural, but he quickly returned to a normal deanor, "We won’t mind, we are very confident in leaving Lily with Easton. We also know that your family elders will not let her suffer any grievances or harm."
What he said was not without basis, nor was it entirely to flatter the other party. He could see that they were very protective of his stepdaughter.
"You may not care, but I do. If you sincerely want Lily to be your family’s daughter-in-law, then let his mother, Alia Linton, co to talk to ," Sophia Wood remained unmoved by the current situation, her attitude still resolute.
Hearing this, Christopher Turner quickly turned to look at Sophia Wood, his face now tinged with anger, "Just let it go, their uncle has already co, you don’t need to hold onto past issues, and besides, you didn’t suffer any loss."
Though he wasn’t at ho the day before yesterday, he had learned from Aunt Hua about what had happened at the ti. He knew that after she had an altercation with the other’s mother, he was sowhat worried that they would be angry and that the marriage proposal would be affected.
However, what happened next was beyond his expectations. Not only were they not angry, but they even proactively called him and ca with the uncle to discuss the wedding arrangents.
Not knowing the truth, Christopher Turner assud, upon seeing Michael Linton and Easton Hols together, that Michael had co on behalf of Alia Linton.
He had also watched as the nephew and uncle explained and even bowed to apologize for what happened the day before, further centing his assumptions.
"It’s easy for you to say, as if Lily isn’t your daughter." Sophia Wood couldn’t bear hearing Christopher always siding with others and retorted without thinking.
As soon as she said it, she imdiately regretted it, but it was too late. Her words were already heard and dwelled upon by the others.
Christopher Turner’s face turned quite unpleasant, but he didn’t angrily retort. Instead, he gave Sophia a cold glance and then turned to look at Michael and Easton.
As he turned, his expression returned to normal.
"I’m sorry, I made fools of us,"
Christopher Turner gave an apologetic smile to Easton and Michael Linton, though he felt wronged inside. This wasn’t his doing after all.
From the mont he saw Sophia, Michael Linton had already determined that Lily Turner was not Christopher Turner’s daughter, so he was neither surprised nor shocked by Sophia’s words.
He not only knew that the man before him wasn’t Lily Turner’s biological father, but he also knew who her real father was.
Looking past Christopher Turner, Michael turned to Sophia, only to et her gaze looking back at him.
