Chapter 613
Jocelyn was sitting on the second floor, watching the fun. Of course, Draxton noticed what happened on the first floor as well.
At that moment, his face darkened.
However, he did not go downstairs upon hearing it. On the contrary, he took out his phone and made a call to Colin.
Colin was in the house too. He was a little confused when he received Draxton's call.
They were all in the house at that moment. Why did Draxton need to call him over the phone? Draxton could just ask someone in the house to look for him and pass the message. Wasn't it? Colin picked up the call. Upon hearing Draxton's speechless voice, Colin's expression changed drastically. He was so angry at that moment.
"Got it. I'll go down and deal with it now," said Colin. After hanging up the call, Colin went straight to the living room.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Draxton put away his phone and said to Mr. Lyons and Ziana, "Whoever creates the trouble has to deal with it themselves. Someone will handle the situation in a while. Please wait for a moment.' Mr. Lyons's face turned ghastly instantly. "How dare you, Draxton! How dare you ask me to wait over here! Just wait and see!"
Initially, Mr. Lyons was thinking of sending Bella back tomorrow. But, upon seeing such a situation... Hmph!
"Haha! Old Lyons's face looks so scary right now. I have never seen him looking so angry before."
Jocelyn burst into laughter as she banged the table.
On the other side, Mr. Langley was a little surprised at that moment. He took a good look at Mr. Lyons. Suddenly, he felt that Mr. Lyons looked a little familiar. He seemed to have seen him somewhere but he could not recall where he saw him.
Mr. Langley frowned as he tried hard to recall but to no avail.
However, he was quite certain about something. Since this person was invited to the Lockwood family and even addressed as "Master" by Draxton, he must have some unique identity. Perhaps, he was Draxton's mentor...
Mentor of the Lockwood family's patriarch! He must be a formidable figure.
Wait for a second!
What did Draxton address this person as? Master? Mr. Lyons?
His surname is Lyons!
Gasp!
Mr. Langley could not help but gasp. He looked so familiar and yet, his surname was Lyons. Suddenly, an image struck Mr. Langley's mind.
The day before yesterday, there was a piece of news being broadcast. It was the first appearance of the councilman, Mr. Lyons, in public. He was Mr. President's younger brother...
Mr. Langley's eyes widened subconsciously. He took a few glances at Mr. Lyons and turned pale instantly.
His lips were trembling. He was so anxious that he could not say a word at all of a sudden.
On the other hand, Mrs. Langley took a glance upstairs. She was so happy when Draxton did not come down.
"Look! What kind of distance relative is this? They even wanted to ask Mr. Lockwood to speak up for them. Pfft! Mr. Lockwood does not even give a damn about it!" said Mrs. Langley in her mind.
Mrs. Langley's smile turned gentle gradually, but with a sense of superiority. She lifted her chin as she looked at Mr. Lyons and the rest arrogantly. Then, she chuckled as she said, "I know what you are thinking. But, the kid is really the younger member of our family. How could you not allow the kid to get close to us?"
"Wouldn't it be awkward when the kid's grandmother and father come over later? We do it for your sake actually!" Mrs. Langley continued.
"Now you're standing in the house of the Lockwood family after all. So, you'd better think properly before doing anything. Don't ever think of making a scene here as it will not look good on anyone of us here!" said Mrs. Langley arrogantly.
Ziana's expression had turned cold.
Mr. Lyons did not give a damn about what Mrs. Langley was saying at all. His expression turned cold as he thought of how to deal with Draxton later. Jocelyn placed her hand on her chin as she watched the fun downstairs. Then, she said with interest, "Look at Old Lyons's face now! Haha!'
Landon then asked, "Are the two persons down there Bella's mentors too?"
Jocelyn nodded as she said, "Yup. They are Bella's seniors too. Just like me!"
Jocelyn stared at Draxton as she spoke, "Oh no! You are doomed now. You have provoked Old Lyons. It's over!"
Draxton then thought in his mind. In fact, he had had a grudge against Mr. Lyons for a long time ever since he took Bella and the children away last time.
"Whose relatives are those people down there? Does the Lockwood family have such relatives?" Jocelyn asked curiously.
Draxton replied, "The man is Uncle Colin's brother-in-law. The Lockwood family's second branch's family members.'
"I heard that the Lockwood family's second branch members have been living in seclusion. However, it seemed that those people who lived in seclusion are not that indifferent after all. Look at how their relatives behave!'
Jocelyn pouted her mouth with despise.
Upon hearing what Mrs. Langley said, Allison Morgan felt more confident and ambitious now. She stared at Kieran and revealed a smile that she thought was gentle as she said, "Hi there, are you Kieran? Come over here. I have candy for you!'
As Allison spoke, she took out a lollipop from her pocket.
Then, she waved the lollipop in her hand in front of Kieran.
Kieran looked at the lollipop. Suddenly, he thought of something that his mother told him before. His mother told him that kids should not eat too much sweet stuff.
Of course, he was a good boy. He should not let her mother worry about him. He promised her not to eat too much sweet stuff too.
Furthermore, this woman with a weird smile said that she wanted to marry his father. As what had been shown on the television programs, there would always be a sudden appearance of a stepfather after having a stepmother...
When he came to think about the life he might live alone in the future, he felt so sad all of a sudden.
The woman in front of Kieran gradually opened her mouth and intended to stuff the lollipop into Kieran's mouth. Kieran could not hold it any longer. Hence, he burst into tears instantly.
"Boohoo!"
He opened his mouth wide and cried out loud.
Betty once told Kieran that every kid had the right to cry. If he felt aggrieved one day, he should cry out loud and not feel shy about it. He had to let the adult know that he was aggrieved. Well, the squeaky wheel got the grease.
Kieran blushed when Betty taught him about it. He felt so embarrassed at that moment.
In the end, Ricky, who was standing beside them, nodded his head vigorously. He totally agreed with what his sister, Betty, said too.
Even Ricky, Betty's dignified brother, had said so. What was there to doubt about it?
Therefore, Kieran cried as loud and as sadly as he could.
On one hand, he cried to scare people off. On the other hand, he was indeed sad.
Allison's lollipop was about to stuff into Kieran's mouth.
Ziana stopped Allison with a cold expression. Mr. Lyons did the same thing too.
At the same time, a voice sounded all of a sudden, "What are you doing?"
The voice was explosive. It even suppressed Kieran's high-pitch cry at that moment.
In fact, Kieran was afraid of his grandfather as he was very strict. Upon hearing Colin's explosive voice, he paused his cry instinctively.
But soon, he pulled himself together again and continued to cry.
Furthermore, he cried louder than before.
Mr. Yan shuddered all of a sudden. When he regained consciousness, he pulled Mrs. Langley's arm hard.
Mrs. Langley was shocked when Kieran started to cry too.
As for Allison, she was so stunned at that moment.
It was so embarrassing! This little brat did not show respect to her at all.
She did not even do anything to him. Why did he cry to such an extent?
"Colin..." said Mr. Langley with a wry smile. It was so awkward at that moment.
He felt so guilty all of a sudden that he did not dare to look into Colin's eyes.
Colin glanced at those people with his sharp gaze. In the end, he looked at Kieran, who was crying miserably at that moment. Then he asked, "What happened? What happened to Kieran?"
Ziana and Mr. Lyons remained silent. Their expressions were as cold as ice. In fact, they wanted to see how Colin was going to deal with this matter.
If the matter was not handled properly, they did not mind taking the child away on behalf of Elodia.
Since Gary was going to remarry soon, he probably would not care about this child anymore in the future.
Mr. Langley felt so embarrassed that he did not even know how to explain. Allison did not dare to move at all after seeing Colin, who looked so overbearing.
Only Mrs. Langley did not seem to know what was happening. She continued to say, "Colin, how could you allow some strangers to take the child away? How would they take good care of the child? They don't even let the child talk to us. You'd better take care of the situation now."
Mrs. Langley rolled her eyes at Mr. Lyons and Ziana with despise. She felt utterly superior at that moment too.
