Thinking of this, Sonya Hamilton immediately put on a stern face and cursed at the two embracing each other.
“Lily Gray, where did you find this wild man to support you? Huh, I, your grandmother, am still here, not dead yet, and you dare to flirt with this kind of wild man right in front of me… You and your spineless mother are just alike, can’t stand on your own two feet and always have to rely on men! You’ve truly disgraced our Gray family!”
Sonya Hamilton, full of grief and indignation, chastised Lily, completely forgetting that she had personally driven Lily out of the Gray family long ago.
When Lily was completely suppressed and unable to fight back, Sonya had driven her out of the Gray family in order to monopolize the family business.
Now, Lily had hired a lawyer to file a lawsuit and seemed to have a wealthy man backing her up.
Madam Gray changed strategies immediately, adopting the entitled attitude she had learned in the countryside, using her elder status to pressure Lily.
If she were an outsider, chastising a young girl like that on the street, people might think she was going too far.
But as Lily’s biological grandmother, she believed that even if a judge heard her scolding her granddaughter, they would only think she was in the right.
Sonya Hamilton thought her actions were flawless, oblivious to the expressions on the faces of the reporters below after witnessing her self-destructive behavior.
They had seen people acting desperately, but never so eagerly or proactively.
These reporters had accepted favors from the Gray family and been hired to slander Lily.
However, they didn’t expect the information provided by the Gray family would be so drastically different from the actual situation.
Fortunately, they hadn’t had the chance to report anything yet, otherwise, they may have offended Mr. Cooper, and no one would want to continue working in A City.
On the stage, Madam Gray was still completely oblivious to the fact that she had offended the most powerful person in A City, and continued cursing non-stop.
“Our Gray family must have committed terrible sins to deserve raising such an unfilial child like you! Not only do you want to sue your own grandmother, but you’ve also hooked up with some shady men outside. Lily Gray, if you act like this, how can my late son rest in peace? You’re really the bane of our Gray family, you just won’t be satisfied until you kill me with anger
Madam Gray stood there, beating her chest and stomping her feet, her voice as loud as possible.
She didn’t feel any shame, hoping her cries would be heard clearly by the reporters below and the staff in the courtroom.
Unable to stand Madam Gray’s wailing, Lily pushed Aidan Lucas, trying to leave his embrace and confront her grandmother.
However, as soon as she pushed him away slightly, he held the back of her head and pulled her back into his embrace.
“Ignore her.” A deep voice sounded in her ear.
Then, Aidan Lucas, who had been gently comforting the young woman, looked up.
His cold eyes landed on Madam Gray’s face, just a single glance made the outwardly strong but inwardly weak elderly woman’s legs tremble.
“Sebastian Lucas the VII.” The icy voice came from the man’s thinly pursed lips.
“Yes.” A man in a black suit suddenly appeared behind him.
Even covered by the suit, the man’s bulging muscles still instilled terror in anyone who saw him.
Madam Gray’s heart raced, suddenly filled with an ominous foreboding.
Aidan Lucas withdrew his cold gaze from Madam Gray’s face.
With one hand supporting Lily’s buttocks and the other on her lower back, he effortlessly lifted her tiny body into his arms.
As her feet left the ground, Lily gasped in surprise and couldn’t help but whisper, “Aidan Lucas…”
“Don’t be afraid.” He gently reassured her, placing a tender kiss on her flushed face, “Some scenes are too violent and not suitable for you and the baby to see, let’s go inside first..”
