Seeing her serious face as she asked him, Joseph replied indifferently: "I'm a man who can shout if I hurts, and speak if I loves; I'm no different from any other man."
Alvina's beautiful eyes flashed twice, and then she smiled: "I never thought of you as a god, but your chicks instead treat you like a male god every single day."
"Boring!" Hearing her say that, Joseph's chest grew heavy, and he decided not to chat with her anymore.
Alvina watched him as he turned and left for the kitchen. The light in her eyes was so bright that even she herself would not be able to see it.
Lily's safe return was a relief to the family. In the living room, at the dinner table, the old lady angrily urged Edwards: "You have to investigate this matter clearly. The other party clearly wants to kill her; you have to not let them go. If something happens to Lily, what can the two children do?"
Lily immediately looked at the old lady gratefully: "Grandma, thank you for your concern. I will be more careful next time!"
"It's not that you're being careful, but you brought so many bodyguards with you on your trip this time. Just like I was, your grandfather has offended many people. I have also met with danger a few times. Fortunately, I’m lucky. You fell in love with Edwards, so you have to be mentally prepared and be stronger in the future!" The old lady suddenly thought back to her previous experiences in danger, and naturally understood Lily's feelings, that feeling of escaping from death was really uncomfortable.
Edwards's hand that was holding onto the fork trembled; he raised his head and looked at Lily nervously.
Why did his grandma say such words to her? This was a woman that he had finally married back home with great difficulty, and if he was scared off again, he would have to marry her a second time. Where did he have so much affection to move her?
Lily always thought that the old lady was an interesting person; her words were straightforward and honest. She never thought that she would not give respect to her grandson at all.
"Grandma, since I dared to love him, of course I would dare to accept everything he has. I'm not afraid of death, nor am I afraid of danger. I'm afraid that he'll change his mind and not love me!" Lily looked at Edwards with his beautiful eyes.
"He dares!" As expected, the old lady was infuriated, her dignified pair of eyes stared straight at Edwards: "Edwards, Tell her right now, would you not love her?"
Edwards laughed bitterly in his heart. This woman went abroad and dug a hole for him when she comes back. Very good, let's go to the bedroom later and see if she still dares to be this proud again.
"Grandmother, I swear that I will never change my mind. I will only love her!" Edwards was forced to swear an oath.
The old lady said: "A man's words are most likely untrustworthy. You can just listen and don't take it seriously!"
Edwards,
Lily was already laughing till the point that she leaned forward, just at this time, Lareina held onto Emma's hand, and walked down the stairs with George. The two little fellows had washed their hands, and were also preparing to eat. "Grandma, the children are here. Don't talk about that anymore!" Edwards reminded his grandmother.
If the two little fellows knew that they were about to lose their mother, Lily would most likely never be able to think of going out again, especially their son, George. He was not a small character that was easy to mess with, and Edwards was still unable to help him out, so, for the sake of his family's status, he must not let the children know about this matter.
"Emma, hurry up and eat, George, you too ..." The old lady immediately called out affectionately.
Emma, this little glutton, obviously liked the part of eating the most. She immediately sat down on the chair, took out a spoon and started to accept the delicious food that her Daddy and Mummy had given her.
However, George stood two meters away from the table, not moving at all. His pair of big black eyes seemed to be filled with all kinds of emotions.
Everyone looked at him in shock. Lareina squatted in front of him and asked: "George, come have dinner with Grandma. Your eyes are already red. Did your little sister make you cry again?"
"It's not me!" Emma immediately answered loudly.
