His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1021

His threatening aura was so overpowering that it frightened the others, causing them to freeze on the spot.

Not long after he left, Margaret returned to her senses and howled, "Where have I gone wrong?!"

"Mom, don't cry! He's just an ungrateful child, and you know that. He doesn’t even look like a Russell! He's always been so distant from us!

“I've said since the beginning that this family could not be handed over to him, but Dad wouldn't listen! Look at him now! He doesn't even care about you!"

Every single word Ralph uttered struck Margaret's heart like an arrow. She hated it, but there was nothing she could do.

When Hugo was still alive, they argued about this many times. She wanted to entrust the family to their youngest son. There was no reason for Hugo to skip his son and give it directly to their grandson. However, Hugo was stubborn. After all, he was the head of the household.

Once he had decided that Alexander would take over, he kept his promise until his deathbed, and then Alexander was put in charge of the Russell family.

Margaret thought at first that Alexander would still be cautious of her because she was his grandmother, and that this would make him nervous. However, Alexander was hard-headed. He did not care about what other people thought of him. He would only be slightly more scrupulous and polite to her when Hugo was mentioned.

Now, even Hugo's name could not threaten Alexander. He even said that he would not hold back! Could it be that he might drive her out of the Russell family?

Thinking of this, Margaret trembled with anger. Celine finally stepped in and softly said, "I actually agree with what Ralph said."

"Huh?" For a moment, Ralph had forgotten about what he had just blurted out.

"That he doesn't look like one of us." She paused, then walked over to Margaret's side, whispering, "To be honest, I used to think that he wasn't our biological nephew when he was younger. I can't say he doesn't look like Patrick, but he's not exactly a replica of him, either.
