Chapter 84: Chapter 83: Misfortune Comes in Threes and Fours

The Lyle residence.

Outside the villa, the butler continued his routine task of replacing the flowers with fresh ones. At the moment, he held a half-bloomed bouquet of lilies in his arms, pacing at the doorway with a heavy expression, showing no intention of going inside.

Elliana Lyle was being wheeled inside by Lana, while Norman Bennett waited for her outside.

Her closest friend, Little Lilac, came out of the villa and just happened to see Elliana returning in her wheelchair, she immediately ran to her lady.

"Miss, you... why have you come back!"

The tone seemed unwelcome, yet it also appeared urgent and worried.

Little Lilac’s face alternated between red and white, instinctively glancing towards the villa’s entrance as if there was some unspeakable secret within.

"Little Lilac, what’s going on?" Then Elliana thought of something, her expression turning gradually sorrowful, "Is my dad very upset?"

... Little Lilac didn’t know how to respond, whether he was upset or not, she didn’t know, only that the master had brought someone back...

"Miss, perhaps... you should go in and see for yourself."

Once inside the villa, her wheelchair couldn’t go upstairs, fortunately, Lana could lift her.

The door to her father’s room seemed unlocked; she pressed down the handle and directly pushed it open.

As the gap in the door widened, the white light became clearer.

On the bed...

The two lumps of pale flesh were her father! And... a woman with a delicate face and a voluptuous figure!

"Elliana! Why are you back?" The two on the large bed were panicked, Mr. Lyle’s old face instantly flushed bright red!

"..."

Elliana stared at the two who dared not look at her while clutching the quilt, too angry to speak a word.

"Dad! My mom... her body is barely cold! You... you are a bastard!"

"Elliana! I am your father!" Mr. Lyle was so angry he blew his beard out, nobody had ever dared insult him, and let alone his daughter, since when does a daughter scold her father?
