Chapter 45
James was not particularly satisfied with Celia either, but compared to Elizabeth, Cells was much better.
Elizabeth was not unaware of James’s attitude. It was the same four years ago and it was still the same now.
Julian smiled and said, “Liz, you go inside and sit down first. Grandpa Tomas has been waiting for you for a long time.”
“Okay, then I
Uncle and Auntie, 111 go inside first. I’ll leave you guys to ir
Uncle and auntie?
James frowned, but when James realized something, his lips curled up slightly. James felt that Elizabeth had some self–awareness.
James glanced at his wife beside him and felt that something was not right. Julian used to hate Elizabeth because of her sister,
Amie, who was Samuel’s biological mother and Amie’s death was a thorn in Julian’s heart. Why
Why was Julian speaking up for Elizabeth
today?
Not only james felt that something was wrong, but their daughter Daisy was also indignant
Daisy took the opportunity to pull Julian aside and asked in a low voice, “Mom, what’s going on? I just saw you speaking up for that Elizabeth bitch”
This is an adult matter, you shouldn’t interfere as a child?” Julian scolded Daisy. “Go spend more time with your grandfather.
He’s in a good mood today, and maybe he can fulfill your wish
“With Elizabeth around he, what can I gain? Besides, I’m not a child anymore. I’m getting married soon!” Daisy retorted.
“Don’t talk nonsense, you’re only in the third year of high school!” Julian scolded Daisy.
“Mom, you said that as long as I choose to get married, I don’t have to go to school anymore!” Daisy argued.
Julian glared at Daisy with anger and frustration. “Don’t let your father hear you say that, or he’ll skin you
alive!”
Daisy raised an eyebrow. “Dad loves me the most, he wouldn’t do that to me,” Daisy said.
“You never listen, go sit on the side and wait. I don’t even know if your brother will come back,” Julian scolded Daisy.
“Samuel should be bringing Celia with him,” Daisy replied.
Julian pointed her finger at Daisy’s forehead. “I’m talking about your real brother, Steven,” Julian said.
Daisy pouted and thought, “What’s the difference? Both Samuel and Steven are my brothers.”
As Julian and Daisy spoke, Samuel and Celia arrived, holding hands. Samuel and Celia were a handsome couple, and wherever they went, they were a beautiful sight to behold.
Celia held a gift box in her hand, exquisitely wrapped, indicating that it was of high value.
Celia’s smile was gentle and sweet, and she thoughtfully prepared a gift for Julian.
“Aunt Julian, aren’t you cold standing here?” Celia asked. Celia smoothly handed the prepared gift to Julian
Julian was lost in thoughts and was about to refuse, but Celia’s smile became even more gentle, and she whispered in her ear, “Aunt Julian, let’s enter together. Look at your hands, they’re all red from the cold.”
Chapter 45
“Now that everyone is here, we should start the meal,” Julian said, reluctantly accepting Celia’s gift. “Let’s go in together.”
“Okay.” Celia replied
Although Julian was quite satisfied with Celia’s gesture, Julian was still Mrs. York and couldn’t be bought with just small favors!
Meanwhile, Elizabeth had successfully met with Tomas York.
Everyone expressed doubts when they saw the folk prescription that Elizabeth had brought for Tomas
Liz, we know you’re worried about Grandpa Tomas’s health, but this medicine is not something else. You can’t let Grandpa just take it without knowing what it is,” Lillian York said, echoing her cousin Daisy’s dislike for Elizabeth. Lillian couldn’t understand why Elizabeth could win Grandpa Tomas’s favor with just a medicine, while they had tried so hard to please Grandpa Tomas with various gifts but failed
“Yeah, that’s right. Grandpa has some old health problems, but the doctor said Grandpa just needs to be careful with his diet. Let’s not mess around with things we don’t understand.” other younger family members echoed.
“Have a seat, don’t stand here.” Tomas said in a deep voice, “I believe in Liz
Liz! Her medicine
will
i cure
my gout that has been going on for many years.”
The sentence “I believe in Liz” is powerful, and no one dared to refute it.
The two brothers, James and Jack, exchanged looks with concern.
Tomas spoiled Elizabeth too much and even joked about his own life.
Everyone returned to their seats; o
only Elizabeth sat next to Tomas.
Daisy and Lillian glared at Elizabeth, and the two sisters sat together.
Elizabeth has stolen their love from Tomas, and they will never let her go so easily.
Tomas always had a loving face when facing Elizabeth, and his voice was gentle; Liz, you don’t have to listen to these people: Grandpa will drink the medicine obediently.”
Elizabeth smiled; she didn’t care what others thought: “Grandpa, you must drink the medicine obediently. I guarantee the medicine will be effective in two weeks. If you take it for three months, your complexion will look better, and your physique will be improved.
The disease will be cured within six months.”
“Sigh, don’t play tricks. In six months, the chronic poison has already taken effect!” Daisy said, she was already unhappy with Liz. She couldn’t bear it anymore that Elizabeth’s flattering Tomas and coaxing him around.
