Chapter 720: Chapter 723: I Miss You So Much (Additional Release 3)
Oliver Davis was furious, not understanding why his grandmother would have such an attitude.
However, he was glad he didn’t inform Lilith in advance, otherwise, she would probably be even more disappointed.
In fact, Oliver didn’t know that the reason Wendy Jenkins acted this way was because of a phone call from Hannah Ford.
As early as when Larry Scott began to target the Lucas family, Wendy Jenkins had thought that after all, Lilith was her own granddaughter. Since she had married the head of the Lucas family, if Jenkins could help, she definitely couldn’t just let Lilith be bullied.
At that time, Wendy had considered speaking to Mason Scott and persuading him to help suppress Larry Scott’s actions.
When she started making that plan, she called Bella Scott to inquire about the situation.
However, since Bella was under house arrest, the phone call ended up being answered by Hannah Ford.
After Hannah’s so-called ‘analysis’, Wendy’s desire to help wavered.
Hannah told her that the reason Bella was under house arrest was all because of Lily Gray.
She also ‘rationally’ warned Wendy that it would be best not to intervene in this matter.
After all, with the Lucas family and Lily Gray attracting hatred, Larry Scott would not turn his focus to Bella and Wendy Jenkins.
Wendy Jenkins was inherently selfish, and she barely had any feelings for her own daughter, let alone the granddaughter she had never met, Lily Gray.
After listening to Hannah Ford, she immediately dismissed the idea of helping.
That led to the subsequent incident where Oliver Davis called her and she hurriedly avoided the conversation.
Lily Gray, who was unaware of the situation, said, “I want to ask if my grandmother could help. Her husband is Larry Scott’s biological father, and even if she can’t suppress him completely, mediation should be possible. Brother, can you give me my grandmother’s phone number?”
Oliver wanted to tell Lily the truth, but it wasn’t easy to say out loud.
Since Lilith asked for her grandmother’s phone number, he had no reason not to give it to her.
“I’ll call her for you, just wait a moment.”
Left with no choice, he dialed Wendy Jenkins’ phone in front of Lily.
However, Wendy Jenkins just used the excuse of having a headache and needing to rest, hanging up the phone.
“Brother, does this mean grandma just wants to keep out of it?” Lily let Oliver put the call on speakerphone, and she had been listening to the conversation from the start.
Wendy’s behavior was extremely disappointing to her.
It was shocking that such a person would be her own blood-relative.
Setting aside moral judgments, Larry Scott may be domineering and unreasonable, but he truly loved Sylvia Scott.
Larry Scott not only suppressed Bella Scott to the point where she could no longer return home, but he even pursued Lily, her daughter, relentlessly.
But what about her family?
Her father only wanted her to hide, her mother willingly suffer for Hannah Ford, and as for her grandmother… it was better not to mention.
She had been wronged, suffered, and besides Oliver being by her side, she could not find a single family member willing to stand up for her.
If Mr. and Mrs. Gray were still alive, they would never be like this!
“Lilith, don’t worry, maybe grandma is really not feeling well. You should go back first, and I’ll help you think of a solution. I’ll continue to contact grandmother and try asking for help from the remaining connections the Lucas family has in Parliament House.”
Oliver knew that these efforts were futile.
But he couldn’t bear to see his sister disappointed.
“Alright, brother, thank you. I’ll go back first, and if there’s any news, contact me.” Lily Gray felt a sourness in her heart, but she couldn’t show it.
She barely managed to curve her lips into a smile for Oliver.
When she returned home, she casually checked on Ben Lucas, explained the situation to Emily Taylor, and then went to her bedroom alone.
After changing into her pajamas and climbing into bed, Lily slowly moved towards the pillow next to her.
She pulled the pillow into her embrace and buried her face in the soft fabric.
Instantly, a familiar masculine scent filled her nostrils.
“Ethan Wilson…”
She murmured softly, “I miss you so much, please come back soon.”
After saying that, there was no response in the room for a long time.
Lily Gray’s expression froze, and after a while, her tears soaked the pillow.
