Thining of this, Emily Taylor’s gaze towards Lily Gray was coated with some dissatisfaction.

“Aunt Emma is just such a person, she speaks directly and doesn’t mince words… Miss Gray, you shouldn’t take it to heart.” Mrs. Lucas said gracefully, yet her words were carefully worded slights.

Lily Gray naturally understood the deeper meaning behind these words, she was stung but had no retort.

“It’s okay, we are all family.” Lily Gray calmly countered with a gentle smile.

Seemingly satisfied with her response, Aidan Lucas intercepted Emily Taylor’s next words on her behalf.

“Mom, this is Lily’s first meeting with my family. Don’t scare her.” He finished, and then wrapped Lily Gray into his arms, naturally settling into a vacant spot on the sofa.

His actions were swift and told clearly of the protection and indulgence he had for Lily Gray.

“Ethan, how can you talk to your mom like this! I haven’t said anything harsh about her, how could 1 have scared her? She is just a woman who is married for the second time, so what’s there that’s so noble about her!”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room immediately dropped.

Aidan Lucas’s gaze at Emma Shaw added a colder undertone than before.

Emma Shaw didn’t realize she said something wrong, and just when she was about to continue speaking, Emily Taylor interrupted.

“Enough is enough… Ethan, you’re grown. Your mother can’t control your matters. Your grandmother is waiting for you upstairs, you should bring her up, she has been waiting for a long time.”

Hearing this, Aidan Lucas withdrew his chilling gaze from Emma Shaw, stood up, and led Lily Gray upstairs.

After the two of them left, Emma Shaw started to voice her grievances.

“Emily, why… why didn’t you let me finish? We had agreed to give that woman a little fright, letting her go so easily, that’s too cheap for her.”

Emily Taylor gave annoyed glanced at her, “Didn’t you see where we are? Even if you want to teach her a lesson, you shoulnd’t say such words in front of Ethan.”

“What…what did 1 say?” Emma Shaw was still confused.

“What did you say?” Even Emily Taylor, with her well-mannered ways, was angered by Emma Shaw’s blunder, “Right in front of Ethan, you directly pointed out that the woman he has married is remarried. As Ethan’s aunt, how do you think 1 should respond? How could Ethan save face with such words?”

Emma Shaw saw that Emily Taylor was really angry. Although she felt that what she had said was not wrong, she dared not to continue speaking.

Even though she was Emily Taylor’s sister-in-law, the status of the Shaw family could never be compared with the Taylors and the Lucas family.

It was also Emma Shaw’s dumb luck that she was able to marry Emily Taylor’s brother. Though for many years she tried to win Emily Taylor over and kept a firm standing in the Taylor family, she was still not of an aristocratic bloodline and her actions and words often lacked discretion.

“I understand, Emily, you’re right, 1 was indiscreet just now… but Emily, don’t worry, when Madam Lucas leaves in a few days, 1 will find ways to make that woman feel discouraged, and leave Ethan.”

On the other side, Aidan Lucas was leading Lily Gray upstairs.

Madam Lucas’s room was on the third floor. As they turned the corner on the second floor, Lily Gray stopped Aidan Lucas.

“What’s wrong? Is there something you need?”

Lily Gray looked at Aidan Lucas who was looking at her.

His black pupils had returned to their usual cool distance, no longer were they filled with the passion from earlier nor the warmth he had shown when he protected her.

Because of his gaze now, the suspicion in Lily Gray’s heart grew stronger.

“Aidan Lucas, tell me… it was on purpose, right? You openly defended me in front of those relatives…. why is your attitude completely different from the norm?”

Aidan Lucas treats her kindly in private, but it was never to that extent.

She knew she shouldn’t ask; however, if she didn’t, she wouldn’t be able to get over her own doubts.

Upon hearing her question, Aidan Lucas’s cold black pupils suddenly frosted over, he reached out to hold her chin, pulling her closer..
