Chapter 592: 592. The disappointnt in Christopher Moore’s eyes_1 Chapter 592: 592. The disappointnt in Christopher Moore’s eyes_1 She was her own flesh and blood granddaughter, how could she truly be thrown out of the Jones family just because it was said.
No matter what, she was the legitimate heiress of the Jones family, the blood sister of Adam Jones.
“Butler, let in!”
“I’m sorry, Miss, the Old Lady does not allow you to enter, and as a servant, I cannot simply make that decision!”
“You know you’re a servant, and yet you dare to block , get out of the way at once!”
Lily Jones was livid. It was bad enough that her grandmother and brother showed her their displeasure, but now even a servant dared to block her.
Christopher Moore, who was standing by, couldn’t help but frown upon hearing Lily’s words, his handso face wrinkling with disapproval.
Though he knew that his wife had always been spoiled from a young age, and when he married her, he naturally did not intend to deliberately restrain her personality.
If his own wife didn’t even have the right to be willful, then that would an he was useless as a husband.
But that didn’t an she could lack even the most basic respect for people.
The butler of the Jones family belonged to the Old Lady’s generation; though he was a servant, he was also an elder. How could Lily shout and insult people in such a way.
Christopher’s voice beca unavoidably stern, “Lily, mind your words!”
Lily, in the midst of her anger, heard her own husband reprimanding her in such a serious tone on behalf of a servant, and was even more furious.
“Mind what? He’s just a servant who relies on our family for food!”
The butler, listening by the side, had a darkening expression and also furrowed his brows, but ultimately he didn’t make a sound.
Christopher, however, couldn’t stand it anymore, and his face beca even more unpleasant than before.
“Since you have this temper, there’s no need for you to go in, lest you make the Old Lady even sicker. I’ll go in and see the Old Lady and then co out.”
“You…”
Lily’s eyes reddened with anger, never expecting that even her usually indulgent and spoiled husband would reprimand her.
“Christopher, what did you say!”
Christopher, also with an unpleasant look on his face now, turned to the butler and said, “Butler, let in, please.”
“Of course, son-in-law, this way please.”
With security guards blocking the entrance to the Jones residence, Lily couldn’t force her way in even if she wanted to, so she could only resort to hurling the vilest of words at the guards stopping her at the gate.
One by one, unspeakable words spilled from her mouth, causing Christopher to frown deeply.
A Miss from the Jones family, born and bred, why would she spout such low-class words.
He didn’t want to use such a derogative term to describe his own wife, but the words that now reached his ears could only be described as such.
The butler glanced sideways at Christopher’s sowhat indescribable facial expression and shook his head internally.
If the son-in-law were to see the Miss like this on several more occasions, who knows how much further these two could go.
When Christopher entered, he saw that aside from the Old Lady, Adam Jones and his wife were also present, a flicker of surprise crossed his eyes.
But quickly, he concealed that flash of surprise, stepping forward to greet, “Grandmother, big brother, sister-in-law.”
“Christopher, have you had dinner yet? If not, sit down and eat with us,” said the Old Lady, whose impression of Christopher was quite favorable and didn’t extend her anger towards her foolish granddaughter onto her grandson-in-law.
In fact, she even felt that marrying Lily off to such a boy with a good family background and character seed sowhat unfair to him.
Elly Campbell shared the Old Lady’s view of Christopher, especially impressed by his behavior during the ti Lily was hospitalized. Although she did not monitor every mont, as Lily’s doctor, she did see enough.
