Chapter 193 Lily's hands were in her pockets. Her gaze was cold, and she had an annoyed expression on her face. She was in a very bad mood.
People close to her would know that she was about to get very angry.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you askto move?" Yolanda stood up slowly and looked at her angrily. "You have no right to make demands here." "If she doesn't have that right, who does?" Loid stood up and walked over to face Yolanda.
He stared at her expressionlessly and said, "Why don't you tellif this is the Laurier Residence or the Albott Residence?" Yolanda's expression changed. "Loid, that's not what I meant!" "Really?" Loid glanced at her. Then, he turned around to hold Lily's hands.
He said nonchalantly, "I'd better be mistaken because this household is not going to be under the Albott family's control anytsoon." As soon as he said that, Yolanda's and Joanne's faces stiffened simultaneously. Nora's expression was also quite sullen.

You're the future daughter-in-law of the Laurier family and the mistress of my household." Lily raised her head to look at Loid for a bit. Then, she withdrew her gaze and started to play with her phone emotionlessly.
The Lauriers were disgusted by her actions. Arthur was still present. How could she play with her phone like that? That was so disrespectful of her.
Arthur wasn't offended at all. In fact, he had a bright smile on his face. He had heard Stefan talk about Lily before. He spoke very highly of her. Looking at her, Arthur confirmed that she was indeed one of a kind.
At least, her free-spirited and carefree nature was something no one in the Laurier family possessed.
"A while ago, Loid hosted a banquet in Lagersfield I wasn't able to attend because I was unwell. I've decided to host another banquet in a couple of days.
"We can take the chance to announce to the world that Loid has been healed. We'll announce Lily's identity too, which should stop other people from trying to pursue Loid," Arthur said slowly after he picked up the cup of tea poured out by the housekeeper and took a sip.
Although he was old, his eyes were still very sharp. He could tell what everyone in the family was thinking with a glance.
He quietly withdrew his gaze and began sipping on his tea slowly.
"Dad, I think we should consider our options more carefully," Loid's uncle, Marvin Laurier, said as he leaned back on his chair. He had quite a commanding presence.
He added expressionlessly, "We arranged a marriage for Loid before because of his illness. We just wanted him to have joy in his life.
"Now that he is completely cured, there's no need to go through with that marriage anymore. Luckily, they're just engaged. It doesn't really change anything. We'll offer Lily compensation and put this engagement behind us." Nora quickly chimed in, "Marvin is right. Loid is the successor that you personally named. His fiancée has to be an outstanding individual to be worthy of him. This woman is...” Nora looked at Lily and said mockingly, "Her family background aside, her grades and history of starting fights are enough for us to deem her unworthy of becoming the daughter-in-law of our family." Then, someone else added, "I've always been opposed to the idea of Loid finding her wife this way. Now that everyone knows his fiancée is a worthless country bumpkin, our reputation is already damaged.
"I think a marriage with the Albott family is the best option. We practically watched Yolanda grow up and know her very well. An engagement between her and Loid is the best- case scenario."

She frowned and put her phone back into her pocket. Then, she leaked at Laid and said, "It's too noisy here. Why don't we go outside for a walk?"
Her voice was very loud and crisp. Everyone in the root heard what she said They instantly stopped talking En and glanced at Lily in surprise. Lily ignored all of them as she stared at Loid.
Loid's expression softened as he looked at her. He smiled warmly and said, "Sure. Letshow you around the house." Lily nodded. Then, she stood up with Loid.
