Chapter 624 Graham, from the wealthy Lockwood family, was silent.
He did not know what to say to that.
At this moment, the guests present also could not stop talking among themselves.
It was mainly because the presence of the middle-aged couple here was too strange.
Moreover, it seemed like these two had shistory with the Lockwood family. Otherwise, Graham would not have treated them politely.
Damon was watching from the side. He sighed and stared at the middle-aged couple with a cold gaze.
As for Kim and Colin, their faces were also ashen.
"Why are they here?' asked Colin, looking suspiciously at Kim.
Kim felt wrongly accused under Colin's sharp gaze. "How would | know?" she replied. "Don't tellyou think | brought them here. I'm not crazy. I'm so embarrassed by them!" Colin stared at Kim again. After confirming that his wife was not lying, he looked at the middle-aged couple again.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, the middle-aged woman turned her gaze and looked in the direction of Kieran. She waved at him and pretended to sound kind. "Hey my boy, chere. Let Grandma and Grandpa give you a hug." When Kieran saw the middle-aged couple, he could not help but take a step back with a pale face, as if he had seen a monster.
Elodia immediately felt a sense of fear. She was afraid that they would hurt Kieran.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZiana pulled Elodia back and said, "Don't worry, this is the Lockwood family's residence." Only then did Elodia relax a little.
"Are they your parents?’ Ziana whispered to Elodia.
Elodia nodded. 'They used to askfor money," she said. "I changed my contact number after the divorce.
They haven't been able to contact me. | don't know how they could chere." Ziana frowned when she heard that. Jocelyn chuckled and said, "Someone must be stirring up trouble." At this moment, the guests could not help but look at the Lockwood family's second branch. They had also heard that the Lockwood family's second branch's young daughter-in-law was a country bumpkin. However, they did not expect that her parents were... Well, it was not that the guests looked down on country bumpkins.
However, the arrival of this middle-aged couple made it difficult for the guests to have a good impression of them.
"Hey, hubby, look at this brat. He's just like his mother. He's so ungrateful," said the middle-aged Lilian Hudson to Alistair Hudson. No matter how poor your grandparents’ family is, we're still your biological grandma and grandpa. Look at you. You won't even let us hug you. What has your mommy been teaching you?" When Lilian saw Kieran's reaction, she could not help but lose her composure and curse loudly. Her tone was filled with grievance and grief.
Alistair also said pretentiously, "Daughters are indeed unloyal to their birth family. You don't even kiss your parents anymore. We raised you for nothing..." Elodia was trembling all over.
Graham's expression darkened. ‘Today is a happy day for my grandson and granddaughter-in-law. If the two of you are here to congratulate them, then the Lockwood family will naturally welcyou. If the two of you are here for something else, then don't blus for asking the two of you to leave." As soon as he finished speaking, a group of guards charged over angrily.
Today was a happy day for Draxton, the patriarch, and his wife. How could the guards allow anyone to cause trouble? The couple had never seen such a scene before. Their faces turned pale in fear. Alistair begged and said. Sir Graham Lockwood, we're not. We haven't been able to contact our daughter for a long time. After that, we asked around and found out that she and Gary had divorced.
"That damn blood-sucking bitch. What's wrong with Gary? If she wants a divorce, see if we don't break her legs!" He cursed angrily.
Elodia was trembling all over.
Although she never had any expectations for her parents, hearing such heart-wrenching words still made her feel cold all over and her blood drained from her face.
Gary could not help but step out and say, "We filed for divorce because | had let Elodia down. She did nothing wrong." Kim's expression changed.
The Hudson couple's expressions changed too. They were a little afraid of Gary because he was a member of the Lockwood family. He had always been high and mighty in front of them. But now Gary actually spoke up for their blood-sucking daughter.
The Hudson couple looked at each other with a scheming look in their eyes.
"If...if that is so, you must have given Elodia a lot of compensation after the divorce, right?" they asked.
Gary frowned.
At this moment, Lilian looked in Elodia's direction and suddenly sat on the ground. She slapped her thigh and started crying.
"Why is my life so miserable?" she wailed. "Our family is so poor that we can't even afford to eat. Her brother doesn't even have the money to go to college and is about to drop out of school to find work. This ungrateful Elodia hasn't contacted her family for more than a year and only cares about living her good life.
"It's really our Hudson family's misfortune to have such an ungrateful daughter. Boohoo, why is my life so bitter? Let's just die..." There was dead silence.
After that long speech, it turned out that they were here to ask for money! Elodia finally could not take it anymore. She definitely would not allow them to continue causing trouble and ruin Bella's wedding.
"Have you said enough? Who asked you to chere?" demanded Elodia. "I don't owe you anything. You don't lack money at all." Elodia raised her voice in anger.
When Elodia first got married, all the wedding gifts received from the Lockwood family were enough for her parents to spend for the rest of their lives. Even so, they still cto blackmail her after that from tto tand kept asking her for money, making her life in the Lockwood family even more difficult.
Elodia thought that he could get rid of this nightmare forever. She did not expect them to catch up with her again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Elodia's parents saw that their daughter had dared to talk back to them, they immediately found it unbelievable. Their daughter had always been at their mercy. How could she dare to stand up and talk back to them now? After being stunned for a moment, Lilian immediately slapped her thigh and howled again.
"Look, everyone, look," she cried. "Take a look at how this ungrateful daughter treats her pitiful parents." "Shut up!" An angry shout suddenly sounded out.
Damon could not stand it any longer and walked over.
He said angrily, "You shameless pair. How dare you say such things? If | hadn't bumped into you back then, Elodia would have been sold to human traffickers. How dare you still have the cheek to act pitiful here?" The Hudson couple was stunned. They didn't expect Damon to speak up for Elodia. Alistair immediately said sadly, "We're really too poor. We didn't have money to survive anymore. We had no choice. We have our difficulties." At this moment, Isabella frowned.
At first, Draxton thought that she was annoyed, so he planned to get someone to chase the Hudson couple away.
However, Isabella suddenly said to him, Draxton, I...I think I'm about to give birth." A thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Draxton was stunned at first. Then, his eyes slowly grew large. Then, he panicked.
He roared, "Somebody, help! Doctor, doctor-" Everyone was shocked by his roar.
Even the Hudson couple was so frightened that they forgot to continue their pitiful howling.
"Draxton, what's wrong? Is Bella feeling unwell?’ Jeanne's expression changed drastically as she hurriedly rushed forward.
At the stime, Isabella's teachers and the other family members and friends also approached worriedly.
However, the first to arrive was the medical team that had been on standby for quite a while.
Isabella did not know whether to laugh or cry when she saw Draxton's cold sweat. She patted his hand comfortingly and said, "Draxton, don't be anxious. It's just that my water broke. I'm a doctor. | have experience." After comforting her husband, Isabella turned to look at the Hudson couple and sneered. "I've been observing you for a long time," said Isabella. "Did you claim that you're very poor? "Alright, then. Lift up your sleeve. | saw two thick gold bracelets on your wrist. Hmph!" Even though Isabella was going into labor, she had to expose these two shameless people first.
