Chapter 276 How Far Did You Get with Him?
“That’s good. The Graves family is shameless. How dare they
come to us after doing such an immoral thing? Your father and I are so angry that we want to hit them,
but we were afraid of causing you trouble, so we held back…”
As a mother, how could she watch her child being bullied for nothing? She had enough of the Graves
family. They looked decent in the past, but everything had been exposed ever
since the lawsuit.
Ben nudged his wife with his elbow and said, “All right, it’s all in the past. Let’s not talk about whether

Seeing her expression, Lucy knew exactly what was
happening, but she didn’t point it out. Instead, she pointed out intentionally or unintentionally, “You
