125 Daughter

Upon Old Mrs. Horton’s words, the crowd immediately quieted down.

Everyone’s gaze uniformly shifted toward Lewis.

Keira saw his lips pursed slightly before she quickly changed the subject. “Grandma, I’m a bit cold. Let’s go back to the room first.”

Old Mrs. Horton immediately spoke nervously. “My granddaughter-in-law is cold, so we must hurry back, or she’ll catch a chill, especially since we’re in the preconception period… colds can’t be allowed…”

Having said this, she grabbed Keira’s hand and walk toward the courtyard. “My granddaughter-in-law, is your home! You are not going anywhere else! Fro now on, you’ll stay right here!”

Keira helplessly touched her forehead.

She stole a glance back at Lewis.

two hadn’t yet been agreed on, so it was best to be cautious about going public.

Melissa spoke up. “Lewis, Grandma is senile and has been fooled by this girl. She’s not a good person, and she can’t stay in our house! You must not be confused

either!”

Lewis didn’t bother to explain much, his voice somewhat grave. “Sister-in-law, you don’t have the say in Grandma’s courtyard! Besides…”

His gaze swept around the surroundings, looking at the security guards. “You dared to lay hands on my guest in Grandma’s courtyard. None of you need to show up tomorrow!”

Leaving behind those words, he went into old Mrs Horton’s courtyard.

The security guards who were beaten immediately cried out, “Mr. Horton, it was Ms. Knight who ordere us to act. We didn’t want to do it…”
