Lucy put on some clothes outside. Just as he was about to watch the fireworks with the little fellow, the old man sent someone over to call them. "The old man said that it was not easy for us to get together for a meal in a year. It's not good to be short of people."

"Yes, I'll be right there." Lucy disagreed with Arthur and Elyse, but since the old man had spoken, she still had to go over.

Caden walked beside her, her delicate face full of unhappiness. "If Mommy doesn't want to go, I can tell great-grandfather."

"Let's have a reunion dinner together. It's ridiculous that you don't want me alone." Lucy pointed at the tip of his nose. "It's just a meal, and it's not like anyone else wants to eat us. Smile!"

Caden gritted her teeth, but still didn't say anything.

When they arrived at the restaurant, the old man said with a smile, "Who's that? Is the surname of the little girl Sheng? You've taken my granddaughter-in-law's place. You have to give way!"

He brought his lover to the reunion dinner. Caden did something too outrageous!

Ruby looked at Arthur with pleading eyes. Her eyes were brimming with tears and she looked extremely aggrieved.

But Arthur acted as if he didn't see it at all. He didn't seem to want to say anything at all.

Ruby could only stand up reluctantly. There was no longer an empty seat. She stood quietly behind Arthur, looking especially pitiful.

"Thank you, Grandpa. I'll just sit with Caden." There was only one seat left. Lucy intended to eat with Caden in his arms. It was definitely not good to eat like this, but she didn't want to sit with Arthur, let alone have a meal. There was Elyse, who was looking at him covetously, standing beside her.

Arthur frowned. He turned around and ordered Ruby, "This is your seat. Sit down!"

"But..." Ruby looked timidly in the direction of the Old Master.

Arthur tightened his handsome face. "Sit down!"

The Old Master gave Ruby a warning look. He was not satisfied with his grandson's attitude towards his lover. He said, "Men, give my granddaughter-in-law a seat and put it beside me!"

The servant answered and quickly added a chair to the old man's left hand.


Lucy pulled the little fellow over and sat down beside the old man.

The people of the Johnson family were envious. The old man rarely meddled in the affairs of the younger generation, but this time, he was obviously standing up for Lucy. She was really lucky!

When Mrs. Johnson came in, she happened to see this scene. She was so angry that her lungs hurt. "Look, Lucy is a fox. He has fascinated my father!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mr. Johnson lowered his voice. "The disaster comes out of your mouth. Don't talk too much!"

Mrs. Johnson also knew that there were too many people here, so she sat down angrily when it was not the right time.

No matter what everyone really thought, this meal seemed to be harmonious on the surface.

After the meal, Arthur walked up to Lucy and dragged her out.

"Let go of me!" Lucy felt disgusted when he thought of the photos that had fallen out of Ruby's clothes. He did not want Arthur to touch her!

Arthur did not let go of her. Seeing that she was very resistant, he forcefully picked her up by the waist and walked straight out.

He came here today to take her back!

Even if she didn't have him in her heart, he would still keep her by his side!

The people of the Johnson family all pretended not to see that they were talking or joking. No one wanted to meddle in Arthur's business. They couldn't afford to meddle in Arthur's business.

Pa!

Lucy really couldn't break free. He slapped Arthur in the face. "Don't touch me with your filthy hands!"

This slap was like a pause button. The people of the Johnson family all stopped talking and looked at Lucy in horror.

She... she dared to hit Arthur!

Mrs. Johnson was even more unhappy. She couldn't bear to hit her son, so why should she hit him?

She wanted to step forward and say a few words, but her father stopped her. "Do you want to make a fool of yourself if you intervene in the relationship between the younger generation?"

Mrs. Johnson stood beside him and stared at Lucy. Sooner or later, she would drive this woman out!

Arthur's face instantly became gloomy, and his voice was very low. "Do you think I'm dirty?"

She had so many men, how dare she dislike him for being dirty?!

"Are you all here to watch the show?" The old tutor's face was ashen as he swept his gaze across the crowd.

The crowd hurriedly apologized. They said a few words of blessing for the new year and retreated. They didn't dare to provoke the old master!

Since there was no one else, there was no need for the Old Master to save Arthur's face. "Put Lucy down and go to the ancestral temple to kneel!"

This was the grandson he was most proud of, but he had done so many bad things. How could he rest assured to hand over the Johnson family to him?

Arthur pursed his lips tightly and put down Lucy. Without saying anything, he walked in the direction of the ancestral temple.

"Dad!" Mrs. Johnson was the first to be unconvinced. She grabbed Arthur and rushed to the old man. "It was Lucy who hit him. If you want to kneel, you should kneel. Why did you ask Caden to kneel?"

"If it weren't for Caden doing such a bad thing, why would Lucy be Caden?" The old man didn't like his daughter-in-law very much. She was too emotional and never knew what to do.
