Chapter 616
Kim staggered as she watched Gary leave.
Colin simply ignored her.
Then, she looked at Mr. and Mrs. Langley whose faces had turned pale, and said, "We have some personal matter to deal with. You may take your leave first."
Mr.Langley's face turned ghastly. He was panicked too.he looked at Colin and Kim as he thought in his mind.
It seemed that Kim and Colin were having some crisis in their relationship too. It was a bolt from the blue for the Langley family as well.
Mr.Langley opened his mouth and was about to explain.
But, Mrs.Langley said angrily instead, "So, this is how you think of us?"Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
"You are right. The Langley family has indeed gained a lot of benefits from the Lockwood family. But, you don't have to humiliate us in such a manner, right?" said Mrs.Langley angrily.
"Kim intended to find Gary a partner. It happens that I have a suitable candidate with me.If you are willing, then it's a deal. But, if you are not willing to do so, you don't have to humiliate us, right? You sounded like we are up to no good."
Mrs.Langley continued, She said it furiously as if she had suffered a huge grievance.
In fact, she had thought about it.
If they refused to leave under such circumstances, Colin would be provoked for sure.
But, if they chose to leave just like that, it seemed that they were guilty about their behavior. Therefore, she decided to make some concessions in order to gain some advantages.
In such a manner, she could also express her family's innocence and grievance towards the matter.
However, what she did not know was Colin was a domineering and unreasonable man.
After Elodia and Gary divorced, Kieran became so depressed.
Even though he did not say it, it did not mean that he did not take it to heart. He was so regretful that he could not protect Elodia back then and was not able to let Kieran have a complete family.He had always felt guilty and sorry for his grandson.
Therefore, how could he allow anyone to let his precious grandson suffer from any grievance? In addition to Kim's weird behavior recently, his tolerance level had always been on the zero boundary point. Today was the perfect day for him to explode.
Therefore, Colin would show no mercy to what Mrs. Langley had said just now.
If it happened at another time, perhaps, Colin would be more polite to them and even show more respect to them.
They were Kim's family members after all.
But today, he was not in a good mood.
Therefore, it would be better if no one tried to provoke him now.
Colin sneered instantly and said, "Well, well, well. You have guts, don't you? Then, stop all cooperation with the Lockwood family from today onwards. I will tell Draxton later that everything about the Lockwood family has nothing to do with the Langley family in the future."
Swoosh! Mrs, Langley was stunned instantly.
Kim was so shocked that she took a few steps back and sat on the couch. She lifted her head and looked at Colin in shock. Her lips were trembling in fear.
Mr.Langley felt a chill down his spine instantly.
He apologized to Colin hurriedly, "Colin, please don't be angry.We did not do anything at all. Why must you put it this way? Kim, please say something to please Colin.Well, since it is not convenient for us to be here today, we shall take our leave then."
"Also, for Gary's marriage, as his uncle, I don't think I could be of any help too."
Mr.Langley continued.
Then, he pulled Mrs. Langley away as he spoke.
Mrs.Langley was shocked too. She was about to leave as well.
Indeed, they had scared the hell out of themselves today.
Obviously, Colin was very furious at that moment. He could even say that he refused to cooperate with the Langley family in the future.
However, when Mrs. Langley walked past Ziana and Mr.Lyons, she stopped. She was so furious at that point.
The Langley family was the official in-laws of the Lockwood family. Who the hell were the two of them?"
Hence, she said sarcastically out of anger, "You are really something, Colin. You can't tolerate official relatives like us in your house. Yet, you could treat some distant relatives out of nowhere in a hospitable manner"
Mr.Lyons face turned cold instantly.
But, he was expressionless.
In fact, he was staring at Draxton, who came down the stairs at that moment.
He simply ignored what Mrs. Langley said.
However, Ziana raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly as if she had watched a great show a moment ago.
Some people just liked to court their own death.
Colin twitched his eyebrows as he said to Ziana, "I am sorry for making a fool of myself today."
Ziana shook her head and said, "Don't worry.We understand that every family has some weird relatives to deal with."
Her words were so contemptuous. She looked nonchalant too.
Mrs.Langley was so furious at that moment that she panted heavily.
At the same time, Draxton came down and walked towards Mr.Lyons. He then said nicely to him, "Mr.Lyons, Master Menter, why don't we go upstairs?"
Mr.Lyons was expressionless. He did not give a damn at all.
Ziana then rolled her eyes and said, "Are you sure distant relatives out of nowhere like us fit to go upstairs?novelebook.com I am afraid that we might dirty Mr.Lockwood's furniture" Oraxton was so speechless.
Oraxton showed an awkward face and did not know how to react at all.
On the other hand, Jocelyn was overjoyed upon seeing such a scene.
"Ziana seldom treats people in such a manner.I bet that she is also speechless right now."
Jocelyn was already so old, yet she was still smiling so sarcastically.
Landon looked at her helplessly with a doting gaze.
In his heart, Jocelyn would always be the young lady he met back then.
Oraxton did not dare to offend Ziana, so he said to Mrs.Langley instead, "They are my wife's elders, not distant relatives out of nowhere. At least, they are more decent as compared to you. Do you understand that?"
His dark blue eyes were filled with a hint of harshness. He did not allow anyone to provoke him at all.
Mrs.Langley trembled in fear when she looked into his eyes.
Draxton was indeed scary when someone provoked him.
Mr.Langley thought in his mind.
He heard that the Miraculous Doctor had a mentor. Her mentor was the councilman, Mr.Lyons.
Mr.Langley hated himself for not regaining consciousness earlier.
At that moment, he could only apologize resentfully and pulled Mrs. Langley away awkwardly.
After the member of the Langley family left, Draxton looked at Colin, whose face stiffened and extremely cold right now.
He then said, "Don't think too much about it, Uncle Colin"
He did not say anything else. He felt sympathy for the father and son of the Lockwood family's second branch.
Both of them were so pitiful.
Still, he was the luckiest man.
For his own happiness, no matter what he did to please his wife's elders, it was still worth it.
Therefore, his expression changed from majestic Mr.Lockwood to Bella's lovable husband...
Not to mention what Draxton did to coax Ziana and Mr.Lyons to the second floor.
On the other side, the members of the Langley family were in shock.
Allison burst into tears.
How could a young lady like Allison suffer such humiliation? "I am fine if they do not like me.How could they treat both of you in such a manner?" The way Allison spoke seemed to be defending Mr.and Mrs. Langley.
Mrs. Langley was so restless now. She said, "Hubby, will Colin do what he said just now? Will he terminate all the cooperation with the Langley family?"
Mr.Langley then said, "The situation today is different indeed.It mainly depends on Kim now.If she is able to patch up with Colin, then we will be fine. But, if their relationship is in crisis, then..."
"Then how? The problem is that we offended Gary as well..."
Speaking of which, Mrs. Langley could not help but take a glance at Allison.
Allison felt ashamed and resentful at that moment as if it was all her fault. She rolled her eyes and said, "Auntie, I heard that Gary's ex-wife was only a village woman. Furthermore, her family seems to be some sort of top-notch family.Why don't we..."
