The corners of Isabella's mouth twitched. She really did not know how to answer Big Dipper's question.
It was as if whatever she said was wrong.
At this moment, Bruce put his glasses back on and said, "Ms. Thompson, Cynthia Crawford has escaped.
"Ms. Thompson, do you know that Cynthia Crawford is actually Mike Crawford's successor?
"The entire Crawford family seems to be supported by Patriarch Crawford but in fact, Mike and Cynthia Crawford are the true pillars of the family."
Isabella was not surprised to hear that. She said, "Let her escape first. We'll catch her eventually."
She made light of it and did not take Cynthia seriously at all.
Finally, Isabella walked around the villa and found Hodor tied to the bed with tubes all over his body.
Hodor was at his last breath. Due to the fact that the tubes had been inserted in his body for too long, he was already on the brink of death.
Isabella frowned and pulled the tubes from Hodor's body. Hodor opened his eyes in a daze and saw isabella's figure
He recognized this woman. She was the mother of Eric and Elizabeth Thompson.
Ricky and Betty were in kindergarten. Although the information was registered with the surname Lockwood, between the children, they still used their previous names.
He hated Eric and Elizabeth Thompson. He also hated their mother.
However, at this moment, the person he hated was the one who saved him.
In a trance, he quickly fainted again.
Isabella wouldn't go as far as to hate a child. After asking Bruce to take care of him, she rushed back to the old residence with the children and Big Dipper.
This was because she was still worried about someone.
That person was naturally Draxton Lockwood.
Draxton had disappeared together with Jen. Isabella could not help but grind her teeth. She thought to herself, If Draxton gets tainted, what should she do? Should she abandon him or soak him in the bathtub for a hundred days?"
After pondering about it, she reckoned that it wasn't that bad, as long as he was safe and sound...
However, she felt flustered.
Isabella was thinking too much. For a moment, she could not help but be a little distracted and look dazed.
Willow sat in the room for a long time, so long that she thought it was about time.
After such a long time, Jen and Draxton must have achieved something good, right?
A satisfied smile appeared on her lips. From now on, her dear Jen would be the mistress of the Lockwood family.
She stood up, opened the door, and walked out.
The Lockwood family had already received a call from Queal and learned that isabella had already saved the
children.
What they were worried about now was the whereabouts of Draxton.
Seeing Willow coming down from upstairs and thinking about her role in this kidnapping, the Lockwood family' expressions were extremely complicated.
The way they looked at Willow was no longer as respectful as before.
However, Willow did not notice. She was in a good mood now. A gleeful smile appeared on her lips as she said, "You don't have to worry about those two brats. They're just children. "Does the Lockwood family still lack children? Just give birth to more.
How promising can Isabella Thomposon's children be? All of you are treating them like they're treasures."
Sir Graham Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood widened their eyes and trembled in anger.
Everyone in the Lockwood family looked furious. Willow paused for a moment and said to the red-eyed Sir Graham Lockwood, "Maybe Jen will get pregnant with Draxton's child today!" She added, "You'll soon have a great-grandson."
"What?" Jeanne exclaimed. She had always been calm and composed. It was rare for her to lose her composure like this.
She glared at Willow in shock and anger, and asked, "What did you just say? Do you know where Draxton is? Is he with that woman named Jen?"
Willow looked at her unhappily and retorted, "How rude! How can you talk to me like that?
"Jen will be your legitimate daughter-in-law from now on. How inappropriate of you to be saying that of her." Jeanne gritted her teeth in anger. Just as she was about to shed all pretense of cordiality, she heard the sound of a car engine outside.
They hurriedly looked out and saw Big Dipper and the others get out of the car, followed by Isabella and the two children.
Sir Graham Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood burst into tears when they saw the precious children jumping around actively while Isabella held their little hands. They scrambled to run out. Jeanne and Philip were also excited. They held Sir Graham Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood as they quickly rushed out.
Ricky and Betty only took a few steps before they were pulled into the arms of their great-grandpa and great-grandma
A treasure that had been lost and regained would only become more precious.
Just like at this moment, even Sir Graham Lockwood's eyes were filled with tears, let alone Madame Emma Lockwood. He hugged the children and refused to let them go. He kept calling them affectionately but he could never get enough.
Upon seeing this, Willow's face turned sullen.
She tightened her grip on her walking stick and said gloomily, "These two brats are actually not dead..."
Her brows were furrowed tightly.
This situation was very disadvantageous to Jen.
If these two brats didn't die, then the child Jen gives birth to would not be the eldest child.
Also, if these two brats didn't die, Isabella would have to stay and cause a hindrance to the advancement of
Jen's status.
Her mood became even more solemn when she saw how much the Lockwood family valued the two brats and Isabella.
They had set up such a trap to fulfill Jen's wish, but now, they had worked for nothing!
At the same time, Jen, whom she had been thinking about, slowly regained consciousness.
After all, she was a Crystal Warrior. Her physique was different from ordinary people. When she woke up, she glanced at Draxton. Seeing that he was still unconscious and motionless, she went to pick up the crystal potion on the ground.
After picking up the crystal potion, she wanted to escape.
However, Draxton's fingers moved. Then, he opened his eyes.
His eyes had returned to their inky blue color, but there was a sinister glint in them.
This kind of evil gaze was definitely not something that the usual Draxton would have.
He glanced at Jen, who was about to escape. He got up and chased after her, grabbing her neck.
Jen's eyes widened in horror.
At the same time, the Lockwood family had already escorted Isabella and the children into the house. As soon as they entered, they were greeted by Willow's resentful expression.
Willow stared at Isabella and snapped, "Woman, you're really going all out for glory and wealth."
She added, "You actually managed to save them all. Well, very well!"
At this point, she became even more resentful and could not help but bark menacingly, "What's wrong with sacrificing your children to fulfill my dear Jen's wishes? Why do you have to go against me? You're simply a jinx!"
Isabella was stunned.
She was shocked by the logic of Madame Emma Lockwood!
Willow took a deep breath and said, "Jen is already Draxton's woman. You have to give up your position even if you don't want to. Draxton has to be responsible for Jen."
She demanded, "Hand over the position of the patriarch's wife to Jen. Hand over Big Dipper too, and just be an obedient mistress!"
Isabella was speechless.
At this moment, the door of their bedroom opened upstairs. Draxton Lockwood walked out with Jen by the
neck.
Everyone was shocked and looked up.
Draxton's dark blue eyes were filled with evil contempt. He stared at Willow and questioned, "Who do you think you are to decide who becomes my wife, you old hag?" The rest of the Lockwood family were speechless.
Although it felt good to retort, this didn't seem right!
