His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 622

"Hehe..." she chuckled.

The abrupt laughter startled everyone in the room, as doing so was unseemly amid the solemness of the mourning hall. It gave the impression that Lily did not take the deceased or the elders seriously.

As the eldest, Jonathan darkened his face and said solemnly, "Lily! Don't be so rude in front of your grandfather's casket! How dare you laugh? How do you honor your grandfather who raised you?!"

"Granduncle Jonathan, how could I not laugh at this ridiculous soap opera at my grandfather's memorial? If Grandpa is in heaven right now, he’ll have a good laugh at this. Don’t you think so? He just passed away, and some people can't wait to make waves."

Henry glared at her. "Who do you think is making waves?"

"I'm sure the one that’s making waves knows best!" Lily turned the tables on him by boldly staring into his eyes and slowly approaching him. "Uncle Henry! While I call you uncle out of respect for your age and experience, I advise you to be honest."

"Everyone here knows how many years you’ve been kicked out of the Lodge family by Grandpa, and no one mentions it for the sake of your reputation. Do you think we don't remember? It’s reasonable for you to come home for Grandpa's funeral and nobody objects to it. However, if you use this to make waves, I'm sorry, but please get out of the Lodge family!"

She admonished him harshly and pointed at the door with one finger.

Henry's eyes widened as he took in the formidable young woman who stood before him, her height barely reaching his shoulders as she attempted to command him.

Henry stumbled backward before he regained his senses and stood firm. "What a joke! My surname is Lodge which makes me a true blue Lodge. You’re just an outsider with the surname Christian. What right do you have to tell me to leave? Lily, when your grandfather was alive, he thought you were a young and helpless orphan. That’s why he raised you in the Lodge family, but don't forget. You’ll never be a Lodge!"
