Chapter 568 Provocation by the Doorstep

Author: Carly Chaplin
last update Last Updated: 2023-12-27 23:31:45
This time, Mitchell was more cautious. "Are you sure the Synder family didn't come to Zanteles with a purpose? That they won't harm our country in any way?"

Everyone was united for the country except for Emilia.

Emilia was uncertain about Mitchell's concerts. But for now, having Adrian at her disposal was good enough.

If it weren't for her, Adrian would be stuck in a tough position in Zanteles.

"Don't worry, Dad." Boldly, she gave Mitchell a sure answer. "Don't you trust me? There's no way I would bring him back if I wasn't confident."

The incident with the Watsons was the best evidence of her capabilities. Mitchell gradually loosened up. "Even so, you still need to be careful. I don't think he's trustworthy."

Emilia naturally knew that. "Rest assured. I've already put the small building he's living in under strict surveillance. He can't do anything that can harm Zanteles there."

"Remember, there's no room for negotiation when it comes to the nation's affairs," Mitchell warned.

    "Romelius! Mandy! Come out now!" Priscilla shouted. "Come and see, everyone! This is how the so-called affluent families treat their elders. They wouldn't even let me in despite being their grandmother. They even left me standing outside for so long."She took a deep breath before continuing, "Mandy, you're the one who encouraged him to treat me like this. It serves you right to be terminally ill."Do you think you're completely cured now? Let me tell you, with a heart as ruthless as yours, it'll relapse sooner or later. Sooner or later, you'll be awaiting death."Even now, Priscilla still had the guts to bring up Mandy's battle with leukemia.Lana's expression became increasingly unpleasant as she listened to her malicious curses.Priscilla was cursing the person she loved the most. The person Lana had risked her life to save was being insulted so maliciously by that old lady.She couldn't bear it anymore."She's not done yet?" Lana said as she moved toward the door.Worried

    The attitudes of onlookers toward Romelius began to change due to Priscilla's claims."He looked elegant on the outside, but who knew he would be so cunning? He doesn't even care about his grandmother. "He claims to be a great scientist. I suppose he's so great that he's even planning to abandon his family. I've misjudged him."I heard they're siblings. Well, you know …"As they furthered the discussions, even Romelius and Mandy's past were brought up. At this point, everyone was looking at them with judgmental eyes.Priscilla took advantage of the situation. "What's this? Did I hit the nail on the head? You're going to distance yourself from me for this woman."You're even planning to abandon me and escape abroad. I bet you won't return even if I die, right?"With that, Priscilla suddenly sat on the ground and began to sob loudly. She completely lacked the dignity that was expected of a noble elderly lady. Mandy had enough of Prisiclla's unreasonable behavior. "Until when ar

    After Priscilla left, the family of three thanked their neighbors.After all, those who could live in this neighborhood were influential people in Dawsbury City. They had gone easy on them today.When the family returned to their house, they looked exhausted.They couldn't understand why Priscilla was still so narrow-minded at her age. She couldn't bear seeing her grandchildren living peacefully."Lana, Mandy, I'm sorry about today. I'll go and teach her a lesson tonight."Mandy sneered. "You want to teach her a lesson?"It was obvious that Mandy knew Romelius very well.No matter what unjust or harmful things Priscilla had done, Romelius would only have nothing but respect for her.It was wishful thinking that he would avenge Mandy and Lana."Mandy, I—""Dad, stop talking!" Not only did Mandy not believe in his words, but even Lana told him to stop. "It's been a mess since this morning. Can't we just be in peace?"Romelius was rendered speechless. It seemed that he was usel

    Upon hearing that, Marion spoke up. It was the first time she had spoken since stepping into the presidential palace that day."Dev, Romelius, let's go. I've already asked someone to move our parents' memorial to our villa."Upon hearing that, Devon and Romelius were shocked."What?" Devon's expression was complicated. It was a mixture of joy and reluctance. "Is this true?"Marion nodded. "I knew that this would happen someday."While saying that, she slowly turned to look at Priscilla. "It's better to take matters into our own hands than to allow others to control us. I've always been scared that this would happen. "The two of you have great potential. I don't want you guys to be manipulated by such ignorant people for your entire life."Ever since Marion gave birth, she knew that loving her child meant letting him have his freedom. She wasn't like Priscilla, who would rather sacrifice her children's future just to control them."How dare you touch my son and my daughter-in

    Priscilla turned and refused to look at Devon."Good. Very good!" She could not stop repeating those words.

This caused her to forget about her past and where she came from.Now that Devon suddenly sent her back, the people in her hometown would definitely make fun of her.Devon didn't look at Priscilla. Instead, he turned and left hand-in-hand with Marion.…Devon was unusually quiet on the way home.

Thus, Devon would feel the most miserable as he was forced to send Priscilla back to her hometown.However, he had no choice. Nobody would want to send a 90-year-old elderly away.

    "When people found out that I was going to be a single mother, they would advise me not to be rash and think it through before deciding," Lana said. "But you're different from them. You not only accepted it and even planned to help me."Marion maintained a gentle smile on her face. She looked much gentler ever since she became a mother. "What's so weird about that? I trust you. I'm sure you've already got yourself prepared when you made the decision. Thus, all I can do is to support you."Lana never thought Marion would trust her so much. She would be lying if she said she wasn't touched. However, she wondered why Marion was doing this.Perhaps Marion was repaying Lana for saving her life."Don't think too much into it. I'm not repaying you for saving my life. I'm just looking at it from an elder's perspective." Marion appeared saddened after saying that. "Perhaps I might not even qualify as an elder in your eyes. However, I already considered us family for a long time."While

I understand this situation is difficult for you and could damage your reputation."If this matter wasn't handled discreetly, it would indeed damage Emilia's standing. After all, attempting to drug a man before marriage was a scandal that would have haunted her for a lifetime had it been exposed.However, driven by the ambition to become Balany's royalty and fulfill her dreams of wealth and glory, Emilia had long lost her rationality."That's not your concern." Emilia forced composure, her expression appearing indifferent. "As long as you don't forget what you promised me, you won't be mistreated."With that, Emilia walked away with an air of arrogance, clutching the items Adrian had given her. "Ha!" Adrian sneered, watching her retreating figure. "This was a classic case of being taken advantage of without even

Even Leonardo was taken away just to give the two people who had been apart for a long time some space to be alone.After everyone had left, Liam straightened out his clothes and approached Lana, then proceeded to slowly crouch down."Lana!"In the man's deep and sexy voice, there was an unusual tremor and a hint of choked emotion.Liam had no idea what kept him going during these years after losing Lana.Liam didn't dare to do anything too bold.

    Liam's outstretched hand awkwardly hung in the air, and eventually, he could only withdraw it."Speak up if you have something to say, or else, stay quiet. We're not in the mood to listen to you." Hector's attitude toward Liam was still unfavorable, to the extent that he didn't even want to see him.Lana suddenly said, "Something very serious actually happened today."Following that, she placed Leonardo down and showed everyone the wound on his neck.A ring of red marks surrounded Leonardo's delicate neck. In some places, the marks were so swollen that it looked like a tire had been wrapped around his neck. It was a shocking sight to behold.Hector, Violet, Mandy, and Romelius were immediately enraged."What happened to Leo?""What happened to his neck? It could have been fatal if it was any worse.""Who was responsible for watching Leo today?

"However, even after my death, I'll haunt you for the rest of your life!"As they listened to her absurd threat, Lana and the Traffic Light Trio burst into laughter."If ghosts were real, then Emilia would be the first to look for you."When her deceased sister was mentioned, Cynthia's smile remained unchanged. "That fool probably never knew it was me who betrayed her until her death."Considering the situation, Cynthia didn't believe she could leave the Garrison Villa tonight."What exactly do you gain by single-handedly destroying the Cooper family?"Lana was still very confused by Cynthia's actions.After all, Emilia and Cynthia were twins and had the same blood coursing through their veins.

    On the evening of the banquet, the Garrison Villa was bustling with distinguished guests.Initially, everyone's attention was on the precious great-grandson of the Garrison and Kane family. With his confident and lively demeanor, the chubby child was absolutely adorable. Everyone was naturally curious about who the child might have chosen as his stepmother.It should be noted that the Garrison and Kane family only had one great-grandson. His future was destined to be extraordinary. As long as one could control the child, it was much more worthwhile than dealing with those individuals from the two affluent families.After all, the elders from the two families were very attentive and doting toward this child. Surprisingly, Liam, who was said to have been away from home for a long time, had returned. During the reception of guests, he unexpectedly had a smile on his face.The ladies who had come tonight, vying for the position of Liam's wife, became even more excited.Liam typi

    On the night before the banquet, Romelius and Mandy finally brought Leonardo back.Lana was overjoyed, and she immediately went to the bungalow where they were staying.At that time, Leonardo had just returned home and was playing with toys on the living room floor."Leo, you're back! Did you miss Mommy? Mommy missed you so much!"Lana ran toward Leonardo, talking to him while reaching out to hug him. In a flash, Leonardo suddenly ran toward Romelius while holding a toy car.After that, he kept hiding in his arms, refusing to come out. He would occasionally peek out from the gaps to glance at Lana.His actions clearly showed that he refused to accept Lana.Lana's enthusiasm was dampened, and her outstretched arms awkwardly remained in midair. She looked at Romelius and then at Mandy as if waiting for them to persuade Leonardo. However, these two remained silent and only greeted Lana in a casual manner."Oh, Lana, you've come?" Mandy said while presenting her with a basket o

    Due to the fact that the Garrison family was going to hold a banquet to introduce the mother of their beloved great-grandson, Leonardo, the Garrisons once again became the talk of the town in Dawsbury.The last time Dawsbury was so lively was when Hector introduced the Garrison family's heir to everyone.As soon as the news was released, the Garrisons became noticeably busier in the following days. All of them were busy scurrying around and helping Hector deliver the invitations.In addition to people who had business dealings with the Garrison family, the invitations were naturally sent to people who were familiar with Lana in the past. Therefore, as soon as the Traffic Light Trio received the invitation, they didn't even go to work and immediately ran to Liam's office—intending to get an explanation from him.At that time, Liam had just finished a phone call from overseas and was deep in thought when the office door was suddenly kicked open.Lincoln stood at the door, looking

    Liam sensed a challenging undertone in Lana's stare. After all this time, had they truly become adversaries?Releasing Lana abruptly, Violet gently patted her arm, her eyes filled with profound hurt."You're here, alive and well. Why did you leave us in the shadows? Even if you chose not to contact anyone else, you should've considered reaching out to me. Do you have any idea how much I missed you?"Over the years, Violet had been grappling with a deep sense of loss.Though it remained an unspoken sentiment among them, Violet was aware of the underlying blame directed toward Liam for what was believed to be Lana's demise.Had Liam been more emotionally available, their relationship wouldn't have crumbled. It would've stopped Lana from seeking refuge overseas while carrying their child, an act that set the stage for her heartbreaking destiny.Witnessing Liam's anguish and believing Lana to be lost forever had taken a severe toll on Violet's health, aging her considerably."Gr

"Leo, you should be calling me 'Mommy'!" she gently corrected him.Leonardo hesitated momentarily before redirecting his attention to Liam.Even though Liam hadn't exchanged a single word with Lana, he spoke up when Leo glanced his way, firmly stating, "Feel free to do as you wish. There's no need to seek my approval.
