Samuel Mckinley's departure triggered a triumphant smirk on Michelle Carter. Not even waiting for him to leave, she screeched, "Lily Gray, you really are a blind, ungrateful bitch. Our Austin Lucas is such a good husband and you don't cherish him. Instead, you spend your days cavorting with all sorts of unsavory characters. Look at you..."
"Oh, yes, ma'am…" Sam stopped in his tracks as he approached Michelle.
"What are you doing? After seducing my daughter-in-law, you dare to bully me, her elder? Go ahead, I dare you...if you have the guts to lay a finger on me, I'll sue you into bankruptcy!"
After years with Brandon Lucas, Michelle Carter was much more sophisticated than Zara Lucas.
She could instantly tell that the suit Samuel Mckinley was wearing was merely a label from a luxury store. In reality, the wealthy wouldn't wear such a thing—they would wear tailored suits.
Those who shop at luxury stores are just ordinary rich people with no real background.
Now that she has transitioned from being the mistress to being the rightful Mrs. Lucas, she has no fear of these background-less commoners!
"Madam, you misunderstand, I just came here to visit Miss Gray on behalf of our young master. Before I came over, our young master asked me to pass on a message if I had the chance to run into a member of the Lucas family."
"Humph, who does your young master think he is!"
In A City, everyone knows that the Lucas family holds the most power. Michelle has always regarded herself as Mrs. Lucas and didn't take Samuel's words to heart.
"Since Mrs. Lucas put it that way, I understand." Samuel's lips curved in a subtle smile, showing no signs of anger.
He realized that after so many years at Mr. Lucas's side, his temperament had grown to match—even when he was most annoyed, his smile never faltered.
He had intended to kindly remind this Mrs. Lucas from a branch family, without explicitly mentioning Mr. Lucas, but she even dared to insult Mr. Lucas.
Well, that's good too. If they want to court death, he wouldn't stop them.
Samuel stopped talking, nodded at Lily Gray who sat on the bed, opened the hospital room's door and left.
To Michelle's eyes, his departure was nothing more than a hasty retreat.
"Hehehe... Lily Gray, did you see that? Even your lover has run away now. I wonder who else you can rely on for support!"
Zara reluctantly turned her eyes away from the doorway, giving Lily a venomous look.
She scoffed inwardly. It was all because of this shameless woman who failed to follow segregation of the sexes and had outshone her at school. Now, after marrying Austin and enduring half a year of her and her mother's intentional harrying, this woman's skin was still glowing with youthful radiance.
Every time Zara recalled how the men at school she hinted interest in would stealthily pay attention to Lily Gray, she couldn't help wishing she could scratch her face to ruins.
"Mommy, stop wasting your breath on her... There's no one else here now. Make her sign the Letter of Asset Transfer and the Confession Statement!"
Lily Gray had long known that this mother and daughter duo didn't just come here purely to curse her out. She hadn't expected that they would actually have other plans.
"Transfer of Assets Letter? confession statement? Ha… Didn't you two always say that everything I have belongs to the Lucas family since I married into it? Why are you suddenly producing a transfer of assets letter for my signature?"
Mindless women like Michelle Carter and Zara Lucas wouldn't know how to handle a situation like this. Lily was certain that the brains behind this were either Austin Lucas, or that domineering old madam of the Lucas family.
