My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig novel Chapter 192

Then, an old man walked down the stairs. He was holding a cane, and his steps were a little unsteady, but he still started walking faster.

"Is Loid back? Come quickly and let me look at you. I haven't seen you in months. I miss you so much."

The old man was Loid's grandfather, Arthur Laurier. He was 70 years old. His face was full of wrinkles, and his head of hair was almost completely ashen.

He walked over to Loid and held his hand. Tears of happiness welled up in his eyes. "This is great. Your illness is finally cured. Finally, you've recovered to your former appearance."

"Hi, Grandpa," Loid said softly.

Lily could tell that Loid didn't sound annoyed when he was talking with Arthur. There was a hint of politeness and respect in his tone.

Arthur was probably the only person in the family other than his parents he would treat with such respect.

"Didn't you bring your fiancée home? Where is she? Let me take a look at her."

Arthur looked around the house. In the end, his gaze landed on Lily.

Loid waved at Lily, and she walked over to them. Then, she greeted Arthur politely, "Hi, Mr. Laurier Senior."

"Wow, this lass sure is pretty. Loid, you're so lucky to marry such a pretty lady." Arthur was quite fond of Lily.

The other members of the Laurier family exchanged glances in secret.

Then, Nora sneered. "Dad, don't celebrate too early. I heard that his fiancée is from the countryside. She's an ignoramus. She also often gets into fights and skips classes. Her grades are also horrendous. If a person like her becomes a part of the family, she'll only bring shame to our family."

In truth, everyone in the family knew who Lily was when she walked in with Loid. They had already looked into her background before Loid even arrived in Bridgeport.

The reason why no one talked to her a while before was because they were presenting a united front. None of them felt the need to speak to a country bumpkin. They didn't think they needed to show a nobody like her any respect.
