Chapter 721: Chapter 724: Larry Scott, I despise you! (Extra Update 4)
In the following days, the entire Lucas family was on edge.
As he said, Larry Scott did not let anyone go.
As soon as detention time arrived, he found new excuses to continue holding Aidan Lucas.
Theodore Lucas and the Presidential Palace, like flies attracted to the smell, immediately stuck to the Royal Palace, launching a fierce attack.
Madam Lucas was shuttling back and forth between the company, the military, and various members of parliament every day.
Emily Taylor, besides asking the Taylors for help, took full responsibility for taking care of Ben Lucas.
As for Lily Gray, because Madam Lucas was too busy during this period, there was no time for her to be by her side to learn.
During the day, she either worked with Skye Brown and Lena Hammond at the Gray family’s company or went to learn with Oliver Ford on how to prepare and manage a listed company at Bastion.
She was very busy and hurried in her work.
The whole person seemed normal, eating and staying busy during the day, and going back to her room to sleep as usual at night.
But anyone could see that she was like a tightly wound string.
You never knew when it would suddenly break.
*
On this day, after holding three meetings, Lily Gray returned to her office.
She drank a glass of water, rubbed her swelling temples, turned over the documents on the table to continue working, and the cell phone on the desk rang.
The incoming number was very unfamiliar. If it were a few days ago, she would have simply hung up.
But now, because she felt a splitting headache, she answered the call, lying back in her chair while closing her eyes, taking it as a break.
She said “Hello,” then held the cell phone, waiting for the other party to speak.
A split second later, a determined and deep voice of a grown man came from the other end of the phone.
“I’m Larry Scott, and I’m looking for Lily Gray.”
Lily Gray sat up straight from her chair.
“Larry Scott!” she didn’t call him, but he had the nerve to call her.
She was about to scold him, but then realized that this might be an opportunity.
She suppressed the anger in her heart and said coldly, “Larry Scott, I and my mother are the ones you have a grudge against, not the Lucas family, and certainly not Aidan Lucas. You have a debt to settle with me, so angering others doesn’t make you a man!”
The Royal Palace was about to collapse, and Madam Lucas, being old, couldn’t withstand the crisis.
She couldn’t just stand by and watch Aidan Lucas’ hard work be destroyed at once.
So even if she knew that saying this might provoke Larry Scott to come at her, Lily Gray couldn’t care less.
She thought Larry Scott would fall for it.
However, the other party said indifferently, “Oh? It seems you don’t seem to know what kind of conditions I have given the Lucas family?”
Lily Gray paused for a moment, and a mist appeared in her eyes.
But the next second, the mist disappeared.
Her beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of determination.
“I know, you want me to divorce. Madam Lucas told me on the first day she came back.”
“Heh, as long as you know, if you just…”
Larry Scott hadn’t finished speaking when Lily Gray interrupted him.
“You wish! I will never divorce Ethan Wilson!”
Larry Scott sneered, his mouth curling into a sarcastic smile.
“Heh, it turns out you’re really Bella Scott’s selfish bitch of a daughter. What a shame. If Aidan Lucas knew, the woman he wholeheartedly protected was actually such a person, I don’t know if he would regret it. No, I was wrong. I should say, you are really worthy of being Wendy Jenkins’ granddaughter. Your selfish and cold nature is exactly the same as theirs.”
Seeing there was no sound from the other end of the phone, Larry Scott thought Lily Gray had been hit by his words and had a guilty conscience.
So, he continued mocking her coldly, “Any other woman would probably immediately agree if I told her that divorcing could save her husband’s life. Only you, Lily Gray, to protect your own status and position, can really live up to Aidan Lucas and the Lucas family.”
“You’re farting!”
Lily Gray suddenly shouted.
“My grandmother said that in life, you can’t take shortcuts and you can’t compromise with villains. Yes, you’ve put a shortcut in front of me to walk, but what about next time? If you threaten me again, what else will I have to sacrifice? Larry Scott, let me tell you, even though you’re half my uncle by blood, I despise you!”
