Chapter 454 “Grandpa, I'm sorry for being so unruly,” Lily whispered. She was unfilial for picking a fight with her family over such a man.
“Silly girl, there's no one who wasn't unruly when they're younger. Just bear in mind that this will always be your home!” After he finished speaking, he turned his head and coughed a few times.

I'll get the doctor to cto take a look!” “There’s no need for that!” He held her down and frowned disapprovingly. “It's no big deal. I'll just drink swater and get srest!” Then, he picked up the glass of water by his bedside table and took two sips before saying, “See? I'm fine now, aren't I? Are you leaving already? | have nothing to worry about you being out there on your own. You seem very capable of taking care of yourself. You can visit any tyou want.” After a pause, he continued, “That Alexander seems like a good guy. However, make sure you take a closer look before you marry him. Don't rush things!” When Wilfred noticed her hesitant look, an ominous feeling crept up in him. “Are you saying that you two have already...
Lily had been debating whether to tell him or not, but since he had already asked, she didn't feel like she should lie to him. She said through gritted teeth, “Grandpa, Alexander and | are legally married. We've obtained our marriage certificate already.” “What?!” Wilfred shot up as his eyes widened in shock. “Y You...” “It wasn't planned!” she quickly explained. “We haven't made it public yet. We didn’t mean to hide it from you.” “You haven't made it public yet?” he repeated with a frown.
Then, the older man thought about it. ‘Indeed, if this was disclosed, there's no way that the Lodge family wouldn't hear about it.* “Is Justin in the dark about this as well?” Wilfred asked.
“I...suppose so.” After all, Wilfred did not know about this. If Justin were to find out, he would definitely report it to Wilfred.
“Okay, that's great! You seem to have grown up! You know how to make your own decisions now!” Wilfred nodded.
However, Lily knew he was angry through her years of experience.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Grandpa, we were in a strange situation back then. | didnt intend to hide it from you.” Back then, she married Alexander in a flash. Even her memory of it was foggy. It was all done in the spur of the moment, or perhaps it was fate that brought them together.
Initially, Lily only wanted his help. However, she confused her documents and accidentally pulled out a marriage registration permit. After that, everything was old news.
However, she believed that she had made the right choice. She did not regret it at all.
With a wave of his hand, Wilfred closed his eyes and leaned back. “Forget it. There's no use crying over spilled milk. What can | do? Ask you to get a divorce? However...” He slowly opened his eyes and continued, “Since the two of you already have your marriage certificate, you shouldn't hide it any longer. Find a day to announce it. | won't let anyone of the Lodge family suffer any grievances.” From Wilfred's perspective, there was no use trying to stop a ship that had already sailed. Instead, he decided it was better to go with the flow since he had a good impression of Alexander. “Okay!” Lily nodded as she felt warmth in her heart.
