When Lilia finished speaking, llisa turned to look at her.
Their two eyes t, both couldn't help but smile.
The dispute between them and Leila hadn't been resolved and the Irwan family didn't want to deal with the past.
So a promise was needed to prevent the Irwan family from interfering after what would happen in the future.
Lilia's idea was very simple. Since Janice asked her grandfather to be the diator, then she would inevitably follow and be fair.
At this ti, Caleb raised his eyebrows in seriousness and was a little surprised. He didn't answer and instead asked, "Kid, what are your plans?"
Lilia looked back at the old man calmly, she tilted her head and smiled. "Grandfather, no matter what the other party is planning, this is all just a dispute between us the younger ones. But there is one thing that you can trust from and my sister. Even if the other party does sothing to destroy the world, Sister llisa and I will never retaliate against them."
"After all, this matter must be resolved one way or another. We must not let the elder sort out our problems. It will definitely make other people think that we deliberately ca to the Mayer family and used the power to suppress others," she added.
This statent made clear the truth that the two of them and Leila could never reconcile. And Lilia's words had aning too— she connected Leila's actions with evil.
Lilia initially didn't have any bad thoughts about Leila before she finally tried to hurt llisa. Her evil plans were fortunately exposed!
After a while, Caleb nodded with commitnt. From his aged eyes, he could read Lilia's determination.
His eyes were filled with admiration as he looked at Lilia and laughed. "Granddaughter, what you said just now makes sense."
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked to the opposite side. "Janice, can you do it? And can the Irwan family do it?"
Her father's questioning voice shocked her heart.
Janice's gaze was a little delayed, her expression was anxious and hesitant. She didn't speak, she was hesitating about how to answer it herself.
llisa's clear eyes watched the change in Janice's expression, her feelings gradually ebbing away and rising like waves.
Was it really that difficult?
Janice's hesitation unexpectedly influenced the atmosphere throughout the hall to freezing again.
Caleb's old eyebrows furrowed violently and he tapped the floor with his cane. His loud voice echoed through the room. With a serious face he warned, "Janice! Why are you still hesitating? Like Lilia said, this is a dispute between the children so it's only natural that they want to solve it themselves. You are a mother, and since you want to apologize to your child, it's best to get rid of unnecessary thoughts."
As old as Caleb was, he could naturally still see his daughter's stagnation.
Caleb was silent for a mont. He saw that his daughter was still imrsed in her own world and did not respond. Caleb shook his head in disappointnt then he imdiately finished his words. "Very well then. Lilia, I promise you to grant your request. Janice, I will say it again to all mbers of the Mayer family after the dinner is over tomorrow. You also have to convey these words to the head of the Irwan family."
"My granddaughters would not do anything to hurt anyone. But when they feel they're being oppressed, it's their rights to demand for justice. As for Leila, I don't care how reluctant you are, because after all, she is not your own flesh and blood," he continued.
The old man then added with a threatening tone, "You have helped to raise her for more than 20 years, it's ti to get things straight and clean the ss up right away. If you still don't want to solve it, you'll end up losing your real child, so don't co and cry to when it happens!"
Caleb's words were harsh and straightforward. Seeing Janice raising her head in a daze, Caleb got up and said to Lilia and llisa, "My granddaughter, co into my study with , I will show you where I used to fight!"
After Caleb left with his two granddaughters, only Janice was still sitting alone in a daze under the bright and dazzling light of the hall.
The deeper the love, the longer the pain.
Why couldn't she get the profound aning of Lilia's words? She emphasized that Leila had done too many terrible things.
Even if Janice hesitated, she understood that there was no room for her to maneuver.
She just hoped that after everything was over, she could get forgiveness from her two daughters.
As for Leila, she would treat her as an illusion from her past, that child was no longer relevant to her future.
Janice beca lancholy and sad. She had already given too much of her love and ti to Leila, and now that she had to cut her relationship with that girl off all of a sudden, she was a little reluctant.
But she had to make a decision, for llisa and Lilia, who still refused to recognize her as her mother.
...
The Mayer family's banquet was coming to an end.
Right after eight o'clock in the evening, Lilia, llisa and the others also returned to Sakura Garden Villa.
They both left empty-handed and returned full-handed.
While sitting in the living room, the two sisters looked at their gifts on the coffee table and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
llisa leaned forward, picked up the docunt bag then gently wiped the edges and whispered in a touched voice, "I've always known that so of our uncles in the Mayer family are very friendly."
"It's just that Leila's brilliance in the Irwan family is too bright for . Maybe it's what makes my self-confidence plumt. I always thought the Mayer family also liked soone like Leila, so I gradually separated myself from this beautiful world," llisa added.
"I didn't expect too much when we ca back today, but their attitudes were completely different from what I thought. Their kindness made feel like an orphan who suddenly found a family. I really want to cry because I feel a little unworthy of this."
Lilia sat to one side and listened to the story, feeling the sa way as her.
They finally got to experience a 'difference' that didn't break their hearts for once.
At this ti, Leonard who was sitting beside Jean took out a cigarette and handed it to the man. After lighting them one by one, he said, "The Mayer family is more human than the Irwan family. I myself plan to create a partnership between my family and the third uncle's Mayer Private Airlines. How about you?"
Leonard looked at Jean as he spoke.
The main mbers of the Mayer family deeply loved their partner, so Leonard and Jean, obviously also received the sa treatnt as the family's beloved two nieces' partners.
At this ti, llisa reacted too late. When she realized Leonard's words, she imdiately squinted at him without a kind expression.
Sure enough, this dude won shalessly! He planned to make her third uncle a business partner, what was that guy even thinking?!
Jean puffed out his cigarette smoke. As his thin lips let out smoke towards the window, he whispered in a deep voice, "I'm going to build two libraries in the Middle School affiliated with Reynold's."
Leonard nodded in agreent, but he suddenly realized sothing was wrong. "Huh?" He raised his eyebrows and repeated, "You want to build two libraries for free in the Middle School affiliated with Reynold's school?"
"Yes." The man replied indifferently. Then, his eyes were fixed on the notebook on the coffee table. "I'm quite satisfied with the prize."
That boy was not yet an adult, but his gift had won his heart.
All accounts belonging to Lilia's haters would be suspended tonight. Everyone who dared to speak ill of his wife had to part with their social dia accounts.
Leonard just rolled his eyes after he tracked Jean's line of sight.
At this mont, Lilia smiled and furrowed her brows. She leaned forward and took Reynold's little notebook from the table. When she opened the first two pages, she couldn't stop sighing. "I can hardly imagine how long it took this kid to keep track of over a thousand accounts!"
llisa was also reminded of the 'I wish you well' gift.
She smiled and nudged Lilia's shoulder. "All because of the supermodel nad Lilia, a woman so charming that she can turn her little uncle into a fan!"
Both of them then laughed when they heard llisa's joke.. In the midst of their laughter, a phone's vibration suddenly could be heard.
