Miracle Doctor Daddy

As Lachlan and Miranda entered the old mansion, they saw two figures engaged in a fierce battle in the courtyard. The Lowe family and Josiah’s group were seated on opposite sides, watching the fight.

Charlie Lowe, the guardian of the Lowe family, was fighting against Black King Kong. Charlie was an orphan who had been adopted and trained by the Lowe family since childhood. He was fiercely loyal to them and equally skilled as a beginner in Dark Force Realm.

When everyone noticed Miranda and Lachlan approaching, all eyes turned towards them.

“You dare to come here, you bastard!” Josiah snarled at Lachlan upon seeing him.

The other members of the Lowe family also looked at him curiously. Except for Mason and Romeo’s families, including Miranda’s parents who were meeting him for the first time.

Emmanuel and Cara looked at him coldly with undisguised contempt despite not agreeing to their daughter marrying someone outside their circle. Even though they had heard that he knew some martial arts skills they still considered him nothing more than a servant or gigolo in their eyes.

Victoria gave him a cold look full of malice as she said mockingly, “Oh look who it is? The little gigolo has arrived?”

Harlow sneered at Lachlan with a sarcastic tone. Eliza grinned but didn’t laugh as she turned to Miranda and said, “Miranda, you said you wanted a dependable boy toy. This guy is nothing but trouble! He just got here and already caused problems for the family! And he did it all for another woman by offending Tiger’s son. You don’t even know about it yet, do you?”

Right off the bat, Eliza was trying to stir up trouble.

Miranda remained expressionless as she replied, “I know about it. But that was just Lachlan standing up for his friend. It’s what friends do.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Lachlan had already explained everything to her that day.

In truth, he hadn’t really been defending Reeva; Josiah had slapped him first without provocation.

“You know? And yet you still defend him? Are you really that taken in by this smooth talker?” Victoria asked coldly as she tapped her cane on the ground.

“Grandma, things aren’t like that,” Miranda tried to explain.

But Victoria waved her hand dismissively and said, “We’ll talk about this later after the fight is over. If Charlie loses then I’ll let Mr. Webb take him away. No one else is allowed to say anything!”

With those words spoken firmly by the matriarch of the Lowe family who never wavered from her decisions once made – no one dared defy her – Mason’s eyes flickered uncertainly before he decided not to argue with his grandmother directly.

Miranda pursed her lips anxiously and looked towards her younger brother with worry etched in her beautiful eyes.

Once the old lady had spoken, it was clear that if Charlie lost, the Lowe family would hand Lachlan over to Tiger’s men and wouldn’t protect him anymore. Miranda could only hope that her brother could keep Lachlan safe.

To everyone else, even though Lachlan had single-handedly taken down seven assassins before, they were all at most in the Bright Force Realm. However, Black King Kong under Tiger’s command was a master of Dark Force. If Lachlan fell into his hands, it would be very dangerous!

Mason gave his sister a reassuring look. He had already planned that once they took away Lachlan, he would have his men rescue him as soon as they left the old mansion.

At this moment, while Miranda was nervous and worried about what might happen to Lachlan next, he himself seemed calm and relaxed as he watched the fight unfold.

“Honey,” said Lachlan with surprise in his voice as he watched on. “I never thought your family would be so kind to me and actually protect me.”

Before anyone could respond to him, however Emmanuel snorted coldly, “You’re just an ignorant fool who doesn’t know any better! Do you really think that my family will protect you? We fought hard for this opportunity by Mason!”

Lachlan made a sound of acknowledgement before turning towards Miranda’s parents.

Miranda then remembered to make introductions, “This is my dad, and my mom.”

Lachlan chuckled and called out, “Thanks, parents-in-law!”

“Who’s your parents-in-law? Don’t get too cozy. We just don’t want to lose face for the Lowe family and make people think we’re scared of Tiger,” Cara, the supposed mother-in-law, raised her eyebrows and said with a touch of annoyance.

“Mother-in-law, you’re quite young and pretty yourself. I thought you were Miranda’s sister! No wonder you could give birth to such a beautiful daughter.” Lachlan didn’t get angry and replied with a smile. Hearing this, Cara’s voice faltered for a moment as she gave Lachlan an angry glare. However, deep down inside she couldn’t help but feel pleased.

There wasn’t any woman who didn’t like being complimented on their youthfulness and beauty.

“You smooth talker!” Emmanuel also had a cold expression as he scolded Lachlan.

However, he couldn’t help but take another look at Lachlan with more interest in his eyes.

If Lachlan was like the previous two men they met before – submissive in front of them – then they would only look down on him even more.

Now that this guy was so open-minded and even has time to chat with them casually, which made Emmanuel think highly of him.

Plus there wasn’t any man who didn’t enjoy hearing compliments about their wife’s beauty either.

Lachlan’s words were music to Emmanuel’s ears…

“I’m just speaking the truth!” Lachlan laughed; his words weren’t wrong either.

Cara was able to give birth to such a beautiful daughter because she herself was once considered rare beauty when she was young; plus living comfortably all these years naturally helped her maintain her looks well.

She looked like a beautiful woman in her thirties.

“Hmph, you ignorant fool! Even at death’s door, you still have the nerve to talk back!” Romeo sneered.

“At death’s door? Romeo, are you joking? With their fighting style, who knows when they’ll be able to determine a winner?” Lachlan shook his head and said after watching for a while.

“Ha… who do you think you are? Do you have the qualifications to evaluate the fight between two dark force masters?” Harlow mocked.

However, before she could finish speaking, Charlie and Black King Kong collided again and stopped at the same time.

Harlow’s tone faltered and her expression became somewhat embarrassed. “Hmph! Our family is indeed full of hidden talents. I didn’t expect them to fight hundreds of rounds without determining a winner.”

Black King Kong snorted coldly and said with some frustration, “I concede!”

Charlie wasn’t good with words but he arched his hand in respect, “Thank You.”

“Damn it! Why don’t you guys continue?! How can there not be a winner after so many rounds?” Josiah shouted unwillingly.

With bitterness in his heart, Josiah shot a resentful glance towards Lachlan, secretly yearning to capture him, take him back, and subject him to torture to vent his anger.

Victoria furrowed her brows; after all, they were in the Lowe family’s domain, and Josiah’s outbursts and profanity were unsettling to her.

“They are evenly matched, and if we insist on picking sides, it will likely lead to serious injuries or worse. How about this, Mr. Webb, I’ll have Lachlan apologize to you, kneel and slap himself to calm your anger. We can put this matter to rest. What do you think?” she suggested.

“Grandma!” Miranda’s face immediately changed, and she exclaimed in urgency.

“Shut up! Kneeling is better than dying! If you don’t know when to back down, I’ll just hand him over!” Victoria sternly scolded.
