It Was You

Chapter 828 We Are Family

'Dad? Daughter-in-law?' Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Lenny was completely dumbfounded. Was this middle-aged man Arthur's father? Did he meet his future father-in-law so unexpectedly?

Bah! What the hell! How could he be misled by the bitch Arthur?

Almost reflexively, Lenny stood up from the sofa and walked over to greet Arthur's father. He was very calm, probably because he had long given up on his own son, so he was completely immune to his boyfriend or girlfriend.

"Uncle, please have a seat." Lenny summoned up his courage and said.

As soon as Arthur's father sat down on the sofa, he heard Arthur saying. "Honey, this is our father. We are family. You don't have to be so polite."

Lenny was speechless.

Arthur's father looked at Lenny and said, "Mr. Lenny, please have a seat. I just heard that he was injured and happened to pass by. I came up to have a look. You don't have to be polite."

Arthur rolled his eyes and said, "Don't brag. Your company is one hundred and eight thousand miles away from here, and you are quite far away from here. Don't beat around the bust. I'm alive and kicking. It's okay. Don't bother yourself. Don't tell my mother, or she won't be able to play mahjong. If she loses money, she will ask me for it. Now I'm in a serious relationship, so I don't have extra pocket money to be filial to her."

A shameless bitch like him was a typical example of a Book saying, "When you have a wife, you forget your mother."

His father raised his hand and knocked on his leg in plaster. Arthur screamed several times. Of course, most of the screams were performed for Lenny. He couldn't miss such a good opportunity to take advantage of him.

"Your leg is broken. Why don't you break your tongue? Don't try to be brave all day long. Save your mother and me worry. Mr. Lenny, please don't mind it. My son is just like this. But since he is willing to take you to see me, it means that he really loves you. I have only one son, and I have been doting on him since childhood, especially his mother. She treats him more important than her own life. Although she wants to have a grandson, she should let him go. We all live on his safety. Look at me. It's my first time to see you. Don't take it to heart. "

Every word uttered by his father was like a knife stabbing into Lenny's heart. How could he not take it to heart?

He had been used to people's fierce objection. It was really a little unexpected for him to meet such an open-minded family all of a sudden. What was more unexpected was that what his father said was actually reminding him to treat Arthur well and not to let him down.

Lenny, who was always eloquent, was speechless again. He felt it was impolite not to say anything, so he had to reply, "I understand what you mean, uncle."

Arthur's father smiled and said, "It's good that you understand. I have to go back for a meeting now. I won't delay it since he is fine. When he recovers, let's have a simple meal together and meet his mother."

Lenny froze there. He didn't know whether he should refuse or not, so he had to show an awkward smile, trying to muddle through.

Arthur answered for him, "You are so reckless to command me. I know my own business. Dad, take care. My legs are inconvenient, so I don't want to see you off."

Hearing that, Lenny's throat moved slightly. "Let me send you off."

Arthur smiled, "Okay, don't send too far. Don't get tired."

Arthur's father's face twitched. He was really an ungrateful man. He had come all the way to see him, but he didn't see this damn boy care about him at all. Instead, he was busy ingratiating himself with his lover.

His father exhorted him a few words and then left with relief. Lenny followed him and sent him out in person. Arthur leaned against the head of the bed in a very good mood. He didn't expect that his father would be so helpful.

Perhaps it was because people were in high spirits on happy events that Arthur felt less painful.

Ten minutes later.

After seeing his father off, Lenny returned to the ward. Arthur looked at him with a smile and said, "Honey, our father has said that when you are free, I will take you back to see our mother."

After a long silence, Lenny said, "Let's talk about it when your leg recovers."

Arthur had thought that Lenny would refuse, but he didn't expect that Lenny didn't refuse. Although he didn't fully agree, it was a good progress.

Arthur raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, I just said that I'll listen to you from now on."

Lenny exhaled a long and turbid breath and said, "You can sleep a little longer."

Arthur had just woken up, and his physical strength was indeed weak. He had just struggled to hold on, so he didn't want Lenny and his father to worry about him. Now hearing what Lenny said, he agreed, closed his eyes and fell asleep soon.

Lenny sat in front of the bed, lost in thought.

Two days passed in a twinkling of an eye. After Kevin examined Martin carefully and made sure that he was out of danger and could be transferred to the general ward, everyone was finally relieved.

In the past two days, Cassandra had been staying with Martin. She cooked the soup for him and fed him by herself. When Martin was in a better mood, she would talk with him for a while. When Martin was in a bad mood, she called Kevin over, back and forth, making him almost crazy.

Early in the morning, Cassandra went to see Martin. Today was the day of the news conference of the GR Group. She didn't intend to go, but it was related to Lucian and Beth. She was really worried if she didn't go in person.

Fortunately, Martin was getting better now. She didn't need to worry about anything else. She would come back as soon as the press conference was over.

Martin hadn't woken up yet. She took a look at him from a distance and told Carlos and others to take good care of Martin before she left with concern.

The car arrived at the headquarter building of the GR Group soon and stopped. Cassandra turned to look at Beth, who had been nervous all the time, and said, "Miss Beth, the press conference hasn't begun yet. If you regret now, it's not too late."

Although this matter had a lot of impact, it was still a big negative news for Beth. Once the news was exposed, even if all the people were pointing at Roger, it couldn't prove her innocence.

Beth smiled bitterly and said gently, "I have owed him for many years. I won't step back. I can accept whatever the result is."

She regretted that she had made a mistake in the past, but she was not ruthless enough. She had been thinking about the past for so many years, so she lived such a painful life.
