Joe turned his head and looked at the direction of the door. Then he turned to Wayne and said, "Mr.
Wayne, I want the two families to work out a win-win solution. Of course, I have my own idea. But
before I speak out my idea, I need to wait for another person."
"Who?" Asked Wayne subconsciously.
"Lily's mother."
As soon as Joe stopped, Wayne frowned. He had no idea what Joe was up to.
After hearing that, Lily looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect her grandpa call her mother here.
Just then, the person who led Joe in came in again, followed by Tina and Kerr. That person was a little
embarrassed and said to Wayne, "Master, I told them you were having a meeting today and it was not
convenient for you to meet them, but they..."
Wayne glanced at them, and interrupted the servant's words. With a wave of his hand, he said, "You
can leave now."
"Yes." The man walked out of the room in respect.
"Sorry we are late." Tina said apologetically to all the people present, and then walked to Lily. Naturally,
Kerr was standing beside her.
Lily raised her head and looked at Tina and Kerr. She was a little excited and said, "Mom, uncle Kerr."
"Don't worry. You'll be fine." Tina took her hand and said heartedly, "I will always support you."
Hearing that, Lily felt a lump in her throat. She nodded and said, "Yes."
Kerr said nothing but smiled to Lily to encourage her. She knew exactly what that smile meant. At this
moment, she was very moving. At least, the closest person was on her side.
They were not familiar with Tina, but they had heard of Kerr before. Although they had little contact with
him and he seldom appeared in the public, he was very famous in the city.
He and Tina came together, and knew the relationship between them at the first glance.
When Dillon saw them frowning directly, a hint of disgust flashed through his eyes. Lucia clenched her
teeth secretly.
The Gu family members had no different facial expressions. When Jade and Simon saw that they didn't
show much facial expressions, and Angela's expressions changed, probably because she didn't like
Lily. Her face darkened when Tina came in.
Joe glanced at them, and then turned to Wayne, "The people have come, so what I mean is that since
it is exposed, why not let the two kids be together?"
"I don't agree!" As soon as Joe's voice fell, he was denied by Wayne. "It was the youngest daughter of
your Qiao family and she had a love affair with Frank because the pressure of the public opinion, they
could only wait for two years to be engaged. Now that Eric had an affair with your eldest daughter, do
we have to block the media's mouth in the same way?"
When hearing Wayne mention Claire and Frank, Joe turned to Lucia and reproached her. Then, he
turned to Wayne, and said, "Mr. Wayne, don't you think this is the best solution?"
"Nonsense!" "I can freely persuade the media to change their statement, but it's not what you said."
Joe frowned, "so you mean..."
"Anyway, the photographs weren't very clear, so I'll have Eric's photos processed. As for..."
"I don't agree!" Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by someone. It was no one else
who interrupted him, but it was Eric, who just came in from outside.
He strode into the living room with a gloomy face. His posture was a little weird, and his eyes were
burning. "Grandpa, I know what you want to do. If you do so, it will only destroy Lily. I have taken the
responsibility of this, and I definitely will bear it. I firmly oppose it to maintain the reputation of Gu family
by ruining Lily's reputation. You are too selfish."
"Why can't you just stay in the room? Who allows you to sneak out?" Wayne looked at Eric angrily.
With the key in his hand, he naturally knew that he had come out of the window.
"Nobody permitted." Eric answered confidently, "I have to come out for her."
On the left of Lily stood Tina and Kerr, and on the right stood Joe. On the contrary, Eric stood between
Lily and Joe directly and held her hands to show his attitude.
Joe was pleased with his behavior. He stepped aside to give him more space.
"You, you..." Wayne was pissed off by his act.
"Eric!" Seeing this situation, Angela shouted in a low voice, "Come over here!"
"Mom, this time I will only stick to my own choice." "In the past, I never said 'no' to you. But this time,
please allow me to make the decision."
"Eric," "What's so good about her that makes you so obsessed with her? Are you so obsessed that you
don't even want to stay with your own family?"
"Mom, don't take it too serious. I and Lily have been together for a long time. I just didn't tell you about
it in advance because I was worried that you would object when you knew it."
Eric was telling the truth. He had planned to tell his family about it after two years, and at that time they
might not have such a strong aversion to it. But he didn't expect such a thing to happen, and now he
had to face it.
"Bastard!" Wayne slapped the glass coffee table in front of him, making the noise of the coffee table. It
was the first time he got so angry with Eric. "You come over. Otherwise I will teach you a lesson again!"
Eric looked at him fixedly and said, "Grandpa, even if you kick me out of Gu family today, I will still
stand here."
"You, you are such an unfilial son!" "Don't think that I really dare not kick you out of the Gu family!" said
Wayne with a quivering finger pointing at Eric.
"Dad, don't be angry." Simon, who was standing beside, hurried to help him and said, "Eric is just a
little boy who doesn't understand much things. It's normal for him to be impulsive. Please sit down
first."
Then he helped Wayne to sit down, and at the same time he slightly turned his head and winked at
Jade beside him.
After Jade received the hint from her husband, she persuaded him in a serious tone, "Eric, don't talk
nonsense. Although you're young, you're almost an adult, so you should distinguish right from wrong.
Come over here and apologize to Grandpa."
"I didn't do anything wrong." However, Eric didn't listen to her and insisted on his own opinion. He didn't
even look at Jade. When he caught a glimpse of Wayne, there was a flash of self reproach in his eyes.
But he didn't change his mind because of that.
"Eric, why are you so disobedient?" Seeing that Eric wasn't willing to change his mind, Jade shook her
head, and then turned to Angela and sighed, "Angela, you'd better comfort Eric on your own. As his
aunt, I have done my best. You should not spoil him in the past, or else how can he develop such a
temper?"
Hearing this, Angela turned her head and looked at Jade. She stared at her and said, "Sister in law, it's
my own business that I didn't teach the child well. You don't have to worry about it."
She shouldn't have quarreled with Jade about the Gu family in front of others, but she couldn't bear it
when Jade jeered at her when she was down. What's more, Jade seemed to seize every chance to
laugh at her even in front of others.
"Aunt, don't worry about me." At this time, Eric said ironically, "If you are so idle, you'd better care more
about my brother. He is busy with his career all day long and is really tired."
"Yes, it's true. Frank is very busy these days." Jade said with pride, as if she hadn't heard his ironic
tone, "Yesterday, he went to meet with Angus and had a talk about the cooperation project in detail.
Since the cooperation plan has been basically decided, we only need to sign the contract."
She said as she looked at Eric on purpose, "Eric, you have to come on, or I'm afraid that it would be
hard for you to cooperate with Angus."
When he heard her mention neck, Eric smiled coldly. He had already secretly stopped his project,
waiting for Hailey to find evidence of Angus's cheating.
"Enough! It's not the time to talk about it." "You're not allowed to be with her, either you leave the Gu
family, or you give up on her." he turned to face Eric and Lily.
Obviously, what he meant was very obvious and harsh. No matter what choice it was, it was a dilemma
for Eric.
Hearing that, Lily was almost freaked out. It was not because she was not mentally strong enough, but
because it was too cruel for a child.
No matter he gave up her, or he decided to break up with his family, that was not what she wanted to
see. She didn't want to put Eric in a difficult position because of her.
"Grandpa." She looked at him and said, "Why do you have to push Eric? You know him well. Things will
develop in the opposite direction when they become extreme. At that time, we will all losses. Hurt you,
hurt me, and even hurt Eric. I think this is not the result you want to see. Why don't you take it easy and
agree us to be together?"
"When you say together, you are together?" He glared at Lily, "If it weren't for you, he wouldn't have
done this. If it weren't for you, he wouldn't be in such a scandal to shame Gu family. You are the one
who should be blamed!"
Wayne's blame did not give Qiao family's face at all, and completely pushed the fault on Lily.
