Chapter 447: Chapter 447: Disliking You and Wronging You Are Two Different Things Chapter 447: Chapter 447: Disliking You and Wronging You Are Two Different Things Grace Gray’s friend, who had been speaking the harshest, tugged at Grace’s sleeve and pointed at Hope Williams, “Grace, this is… a crafty old woman…”
That girl quickly covered her mouth.
The woman standing before them was dressed in a beige coat paired with a light brown knitted suit, her delicate features without a hint of makeup, yet simply standing there exuding an air of aloof nobility.
Just a slow sweep of those indifferent eyes over her had made her feel an overwhelming sense of oppression.
Recalling what she had just said, that she wasn’t even pretty, just an old woman nearing thirty.
The girl imdiately bowed her head severely, realizing this woman was not just beautiful but also had flawlessly pale skin that couldn’t possibly be associated with an old woman.
Wyatt Lewis swept a casual glance at Grace Gray and chuckled softly, then turned to follow Hope Williams.
Grace Gray was trembling all over, Wyatt’s chuckles full of ridicule.
She hurried forward, grabbing Hope Williams’ hands, “Sister-in-law, I’m sorry, those were just jokes from friends, no other aning.”
Hope Williams withdrew her hands coldly, “Wyatt, when did you get another sister?”
Wyatt Lewis inserted his hands into his pockets, scoffing coldly, “My parents only have and my brother, two sons. Her, I’ve no idea where she popped up from.”
With these words, Wyatt Lewis directly denied her self-proclaid identity as a mber of the Lewis Family.
The people around Grace Gray exchanged glances in an instant.
Hope Williams curled her lips into a smile, “Miss Gray, don’t falsely claim relatives now.”
Grace Gray looked at Hope Williams in panic, tears falling down in big drops, “Sister-in-law, don’t say that, I know you are angry, but you clearly know that mom took in as her adopted daughter.”
“Mom taking you as her adopted daughter, that’s her business, and has nothing to do with us,” Wyatt Lewis said with a sneer.
Grace Gray looked past Hope Williams and glanced behind her; a glimr of light flashed in her eyes, and her tears continued to fall, crying with a beauty like blossoms in the rain, “I know you look down on , do not recognize , and I know I shouldn’t appear in your lives…”
“Grace, what nonsense are you talking about?” A voice sounded from the entrance.
Alitzel Williams appeared at the door and strode in, taking hold of Grace Gray’s hands, “Didn’t you say you were going for coffee with friends, why are you crying like this?”
Grace Gray cried, “Mom, it’s all my fault, all my fault… I…”
Grace Gray wanted to say more, but Wyatt Lewis gave her no opportunity.
“She was bad-mouthing behind the backs, calling the sister-in-law a crafty old woman, saying she’s not worthy of my brother, that she’s a nace, and also spouted lies,” Wyatt intervened.
“Brother Wyatt, I know you hate , but you can’t slander like this, I’ve never said those things.”
Grace Gray’s face was covered in tears, holding tightly onto Alitzel Williams’ hands, hoping she would believe her.
Alitzel Williams frowned deeply, looking at Grace Gray intently, then turned towards Hope Williams, “Little Hope, did she say these things?”
Hope Williams had a cold expression, quietly standing there and nodding, “She did.”
“I didn’t…”
Alitzel Williams withdrew her hand, which had been tightly held by Grace Gray, took a deep breath, and looked at Grace Gray with a complicated gaze.
Grace Gray looked at Alitzel Williams in panic, “Mom, don’t you believe ?”
“Disliking you and slandering you are two different things. He’s my son, and I know him, I know Hope Williams too. They may not like you, but they would never slander you for no reason. If you never said these words, there’s no reason for them to claim you did. So, tell the truth, did you say them?”
Grace Gray was silenced on the spot, her hands clenched tightly, turning her head to look at the girls who were just sucking up to her, “It wasn’t , they were the ones saying those things…”
These girls weren’t stupid. The words said earlier were to please Grace Gray, but if they knew Hope Williams was sitting right there, they wouldn’t dare even with a thousand tis the courage.
Did they not want to stay in Emperor Capital after offending the Lewis Family?
Now that Grace Gray wanted to push everything onto them, of course, they wouldn’t admit it so foolishly.
