"Claire..." Seeing Claire trotting away, Frank chased after her. But before leaving, he also glared at Lily
and at Eden.
Receiving the glares from the two of them one after another, Lily felt a little confused. She could
understand why Frank glared at her, but what did Claire mean by that? After all, it was she who told the
truth for her. She didn't appreciate it, but she even glared at her, as if it was her fault.
Eden patted on Lily's head and said, "Don't be angry."
Huh? Angry? Confused, Lily turned her head to look at Eden. Then she heard him say, "If you are
angry for Claire's glare at you just now, I apologize for her. If you are angry for Frank, it's unnecessary.
It's not worth getting angry for such a person."
Lily blinked her eyes and realized that he had misunderstood. He thought she was angry, so she
suddenly smiled. "I'm not angry. I just think Claire is too simple. After Frank said a few words, she
forgave him."
Hearing this, Eden frowned imperceptibly. Frank's previous explanation was a mess. If a man really
loved a woman, there would be no such a problem. After all, he was just using Claire.
"I will talk to father and mother about this matter. Claire is still young. We can't let Frank destroy her."
He spoke out his thoughts.
"Okay." Lily answered absent mindedly.
Now she didn't have much time to care about how they would deal with this matter. Anyway, it was not
her business. Just now, she said that Claire was simple, because in front of Eden. What she and Frank
had done to her in her previous life was still vivid in her mind.
However, Frank was so bad that he even used such an excuse to deceive others. What kind of impulse
and what kind of need were all lies, OK?
It was an excuse for him to cheat on her. But it was not surprising for a bad man like Frank to say it out
loud.
"Let's go inside. It's cold outside." Eden looked at her and said.
"Okay." Lily replied with a smile. Being protected and cared by Eden, she felt an unprecedented sense
of warmth in her heart.
The two entered the room one after another, only to meet Lucia and Jade. The two women couldn't get
involved in the discussion between Simon and Dillon, so they could only talk about the topic between
women. But they didn't expect that just now, they saw Claire running back to the room with a red face,
and then followed up by Frank.
When they were about to catch up and ask what had happened, they saw Eden and Lily coming in. So,
Lucia pulled Eden and asked, "What's wrong with your sister?"
Pursing his lips, Eden took a look at Jade, he didn't look well. "Mom, you should ask Frank."
Frank? Lucia frowned subconsciously. She suddenly thought of what happened before dinner and
realized. She had experienced it. How could she not know that Frank's explanation today was an
excuse?
"Frank?" Jade continued. She looked at Eden in confusion, "Did Claire get angry because of Frank?"
"What do you think?" Eden asked with a fake smile.
Hearing his question, Jade was stunned. He suddenly caught a glimpse of Lily behind Eden and said,
"I know. It must be you who seduced him You are too close to the Frank, so you make Claire angry."
She wanted to say the two words "seduce", but when she thought that it was in the Qiao family's old
house, it was not appropriate to say so, so she changed her words.
Hearing this, Lily was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. Jade was smart enough. She didn't know
how her brain was made up. How could she make up such a reason? And she was so righteous!
Taking a step forward, Lily stood straight in front of Jade and looked at her calmly. "Aunt, out of
politeness, I call you aunt. Please think it over before you speak, okay? I'm now the fiancee of Eric,
which even grandpa has agreed. Do you think I will still be so reckless to have anything to do with your
son?"
"But you and Frank were in the back garden at the very beginning." Jade said with certainty. After
dinner, she went to talk to Frank and knew that he was going to the back garden. So she followed the
direction and saw that he was indeed with Lily.
Then she saw Eden appear. She thought they were talking about something, so she didn't go to see
her son. She didn't expect that Claire ran back to her room with red eyes and her son followed her.
Hearing what Jade said, Lucia turned to look at Lily.
"Jade!" After hearing this, Lily became less polite. She looked at Jade with sharp eyes and said,
"Please use your brain before you speak. Don't think that I'm easy to bully just because I'm a child. You
should ask your son. I'm telling you, I don't want a man like Frank even if gives him to me!"
"You..." Jade's eyes widened. She didn't expect that Lily would talk to her in such a tone!
Not only her, but also Lucia, who had always disliked Lily, was surprised. So was Eden. But his
expression was not that exaggerated. He just looked at her indifferently.
"What?" Lily interrupted Jade, "You're not a good mother. When something happens, the first thing you
think about is others' fault, not your son's. Now he's messing around outside. Claire has known about
those bastards. The two of them have a conflict, but you blame me. What do you mean? Don't forget
that it's my home now. I'm the owner of this house. You framed me like this, and I have the right to drive
you out!"
Lily had wanted to scold Jade for a long time, but she had been repressed for various reasons before.
In addition, what she had done in her previous life had completely burst out her resentment against her
at this moment.
Jade didn't know how to deal with the scold. She turned to Lucia and said, "Lucia, look at this child.
How dare she scold the elder? She..."
"Aunt." "You'd better go back and ask your son about it tonight. If you continue to talk nonsense, it will
only create contradictions in our Qiao family."
"I..." Jade felt humiliated by the two juniors.
Seeing her like this, Lucia didn't know what to say. Even though she didn't like Lily, she didn't dare to
provoke her in the old house of the Qiao family. She could only let her scold Jade, so she could only
say Jade.
"Eden, how could you talk to an elder like that?"
"Mom, I'm telling the truth." Eden looked at his mother and said, "It's all Frank's fault tonight. It has
nothing to do with anyone else."
Lily turned to look at Eden and smiled. At present, in the Qiao family, besides her grandfather, Eden
was the second one who cared about and defended her.
Although his biological mother was Lucia, after going through so many things, she had no grudge
against him anymore. Even her vigilance was fading away little by little, as if they could get closer and
closer.
Glancing at her from the corner of his eyes, Eden turned his head and his eyes met hers, giving her a
reassuring smile.
Hearing her son's words, Lucia didn't say anything more. Instead, she turned to Jade and patted her on
the hand to comfort her. "I'll ask Claire about this. You can also go to ask Frank and see what kind of
conflict they have, so that we can solve it."
At this point, no matter how angry Jade was, she had to endure it. She nodded and said, "Okay."
But after saying these two words, she glared at Lily fiercely.
Lily was not the weak person she used to be. When she saw her glaring at her, she also glared back
and said.
"Don't stare at me. It's useless to stare at me. Don't think that I'm deliberately hurting your son. I'm not
that bored, and I won't be as brainless as you. You said I seduced him in front of the media before. In
the end, all the evidences are pointing to your son. He is pestering me, not the truth as you said. So, no
matter what you do or say in the future, use your brain first."
After these words, Lily only felt a burst of physical and mental pleasure. Well, a sense of revenge, at
least on the lips, but at least not let her suffer.
Jade was almost driven mad. She didn't expect that Lily would be so rude to her. She glared at her, but
couldn't say a word.
"Lily, how could you talk to aunt like that?" At this time, Dillon and Simon came over. They heard the
quarrel here, so they came. But when they heard these words, Dillon had to stop them.
Hearing his voice, Lily turned her head to look at him. There was no fear in her eyes, and her
expression was very calm. "Dad, what I said is true. It's not the first or two times that your daughter was
bullied and framed. I could bear it before, but my tolerance is limited, and it will explode to a certain
extent. If rabbit is anxious, it will bite people.
When she mentioned the two words "daughter", she sneered in her heart, because in Dillon's heart, he
had never treated her as his daughter, whether in her previous life or now!
"No matter what happens, it's wrong to talk to the elder in such a tone!" He frowned and said in a more
serious tone. He didn't know the truth, but he couldn't offend the Gu family.
