Chapter 443: 446: Foolish Gray Family Members
“Alright, Lily, the banquet is about to start, you should go take your seat. Also, your grandma, aunt, and that cousin of yours have arrived, they’re at table two… Did you invite them?”
Lily Gray looked over following Skye Brown’s gaze, and their eyes met with Milly Gray’s.
Milly Gray raised her chin slightly, looking down at her with an air of superiority.
Meanwhile, Rowena Gray and Madam Gray looked at her with disdain.
Lily gently shook her head, “It wasn’t me, but don’t worry, since Ethan Wilson let them in, he must have his reasons.”
One could say that Lily now had complete trust in Aidan Lucas.
Even though she didn’t understand his arrangements, she would never doubt them.
“Alright, as long as you know what’s going on. And… David Redington is here too, is that okay?” Skye discreetly shifted aside, allowing Lily to see David, who was initially blocked by her body.
David was still the same, simply sitting there was enough to attract attention.
That gorgeous man, with his deep blue eyes, seemed even more melancholic and distant than usual.
Feeling Lily’s gaze, David raised his head slightly, and their eyes met.
Just for a second.
Lily felt her breath hitch.
Those somber and melancholic eyes seemed to pull at one’s heartstrings.
David glanced at her for a moment, then lowered his head again.
It seemed like he was deliberately keeping a distance from her.
Skye whispered into Lily’s ear, “He must be hurt… Look at his eyes. Your husband’s move is really amazing, killing without a trace!”
“Don’t talk nonsense about killing without a trace.” Though she said that, Lily could clearly see the gloom in David’s eyes.
Had he not let go yet?
“Skye, can you help me greet David? I’ll go ahead.”
Although she was concerned for David, Lily knew her role today.
She was the hostess of the banquet, Aidan Lucas’s wife, and the lady of the Lucas family.
There was already gossip about her relationship with David, so it wasn’t appropriate for her to get too close to him.
After saying goodbye to Skye, she walked leisurely to the first table.
The Gray family saw Lily approaching their table and assumed she was coming to get close to them, showing a smug expression on their faces.
Hmph, Lily, who was not a presentable mistress, must have dared to attend the banquet today because she was once favored by Mr. Lucas.
Rowena Gray whispered to Madam Gray, “Mom, don’t be soft-hearted later. That bitch Lily thinks she can come over and ask for our help just because we’re sitting at the second table. We’re here at Mrs. Lucas’s invitation, don’t be fooled by her sweet words!”
“Don’t worry, I know what to do.”
Standing nearby, Simon Taylor accidentally heard the conversation between the Grays and furrowed his eyebrows.
He had felt their words seemed strange earlier.
Now, it was not only strange, it seemed they didn’t even understand who was hosting the banquet tonight!
Just as he was about to offer a hint, Rowena Gray suddenly cursed, “That bitch Lily, how dare she ignore us!”
As it turned out, Lily didn’t come over to ask for their help as Rowena Gray had thought.
Instead, she walked past table two and sat down at the first table.
“Mom, that bitch is causing trouble, daring to sit at the first table directly. She’s clearly not giving Mrs. Lucas any face!”
“That damn girl, just watch how I teach her a lesson!” Madam Gray suddenly stood up, “Fine, I’ll clean up the Gray family’s mess today!”
