Chapter 23
Lily’s tolerance toward the Martinez family stemmed from their connection to Jason Martinez. However, this didn’t mean she would endure their behavior indefinitely. =)
Her grandmother was the one person she wouldn’t tolerate anyone messing with If anyone dared to lay a finger on her, she would make them regret ever being born no matter who they were!
Upstairs, Melanie insisted that Loid take off his clothes for inspection.
To her astonishment, she discovered that all the lumps on his body were gone. She was speechless.
Melanie’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Loid. “W–What’s going on here? Who’s the famous doctor who cured you?
Loid dressed slowly, glancing ar Melanie with a hint of a smile as he said, “Your future daughter–in–Law.”
Melanie exclaimed with a voice filled with disbelief. “That’s impossible!”
Lily was just a 19–year–old young lady who hadn’t even graduated from college. How could she possibly cure Loid’s illness?
Moreover, it wasn’t an ordinary illness–it was poisoning
Countless renowned doctors had failed to find an antidote, so how could a young girl like Lily figureit out?
After realizing that Leid wasn’t jong, Melanie took a deep breath. Her brows furrowed in contemplation. “Isn’t this little girl just a simple country bumpkin?
“No,” Loid replied. He hadn’t made any particular effort to investigate Lily. His knowledge of Lily was mostly based on the information Daniel had gathered upon discovering that the Martinez family intended to arrange her marriage with Loid. However, the details he had were only superficial
Lily’s identity had been carefully concealed by someone with impressive skills.
Even with Daniel’s abilities, it seemed impossible for him to have missed the fact that Lily was Shadowbane’s apprentice.
While Lily’s background needed further investigation, Loid refrained from asking Daniel to look into it.
He wasn’t interested in prying into certain aspects of her life. Despite her hostility, there wasn’t any malice behind it, so he believed there was no need for him to investigate. Melanie’s expression turned serious. “Then why did she save you? Was it premeditated?“.
“I don’t know,” Loid said as he raised his eyes to look at Melanie. “I thought you really liked her.”
“Yes, I do,” Melanie admitted her fondness for Lily without hesitation. “She’s genuine and unpretentious. I’m very pleased with her.”
In Melanie’s social circle, everyone seemed eager to please her. It was rare to find someone who could disregard her status and engage in genuine conversation.
However, Lily was different since her arrival, Lily had displayed no effort to please Melanie and consistently maintained a calm demeanor. Despite her polite tone, Melanie sensed an underlying impatience in Lily.
As Lily’s future mother–in–law, Melanie was immediately drawn to Lily’s straightforwardness and lack of pretense. Melanie concluded from this alone that Lily did not behave like those wealthy young women who were always scheming to please others for personal gain.
“While I adore her, I can’t help but worry if you’ve somehow offended her and she’s come seeking revenge.”
Melanie was not one to overlook things. Despite her fondness for Lily, her son’s well–being remained her top priority.
Melanie had unwavering confidence in Loid’s captivating looks. She knew that most women couldn’t resist his charm. To Melanie’s surprise, Lily proved to be an exception
From the moment Lily arrived, Melanie noticed she hadn’t glanced at Loid once. Shannon, on the other hand, couldn’t resist glancing at him every now and then.
Loid narrowed his eyes and said, “It’s possible.”
“What should we do now? Melanie panicked
“She’s my lancée” Loid smirked.
Upon hearing this, Melanie chuckled “Well played ”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
