Elizabeth sat there, her beautiful eyes staring at William, her face revealing an ugly expression, her breathing became heavier, and she glared at Alice in pain and anger, "I shouldn't have let you go!"
With that, Elizabeth grabbed the antique phone on the table with both of her hands and smashed it towards Alice. Alice subconsciously shrunk her head, but William quickly turned his body to block her.
"William?"
Alice looked at William in shock and grabbed him worriedly.
"William, are you alright?" Seeing his son being smashed by herself, Elizabeth anxiously went to check on his injuries, "I'm sorry, mother did not do it on purpose, let me see where your injury is."
"I'm fine."
William said in a deep voice. He pushed Alice's hand away and turned to look at Elizabeth.
It was not a good idea to keep it a secret.
Alice looked at William's back, and saw that his coat had been smashed so hard that it left a mark.
William was angry at her, but even though she was facing injuries, William still blocked it for her reflexively. William ...
"Published to the public?"Elizabeth repeated herself as she slumped on the chair as if she had lost all of her strength, "No, it's not time yet."
"Are you going to keep freezing my father?"
"Lancaster is causing a huge ruckus right now. Your father is together, and with their solid foundation in the circle, it is very easy for them to kick us out. They still fear your father a bit."Elizabeth said, she was determined to not let the matter be made known to the public.
"It's just the word of a noblejt's not that important!" If Lancaster, dares to do so, I will make it so that they will not be able to survive year by year!"
William said in a serious tone.
Just as Elizabeth had expected, William was so arrogant. He only thought that it was important, and nothing else mattered to him.
"William, the thing you regard as a speck of dust was something that your father had struggled for his entire life."Elizabeth said as she sat there trying to be brave, "I know, I can't change you, and you can ignore it. I am the one making the decision on the Cullen family now.I will decide everything."
"No, I have to bury my father. Don't play such a silly game of splitting two corners by yourself!"
Elizabeth and William faced off, "Alright, go and swear in front of your father that you are willing to give your all for the honor of the Cullen family and that if you are willing to inherit the Cullen family, I will make it known to the public."
Just as William was about to speak, a calm male voice came out from behind him, "Mother, let me do it."
II William's figure froze, his hand clenched into a fist.
When Alice heard the voice, she silently closed her eyes. She felt guilty, but she still chose to stop her unfettered freedom, and it was all because of her.
Elizabeth was sitting in front of a desk. After hearing what William said, he opened her eyes wide and looked behind William in shock. His beautiful face was filled with disbelief,and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes were trembling.
David walked out from behind William and took off his sunglasses and mask. His face was slightly injured and his eyes were red as he looked deeply at Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was completely shocked; she looked at him in a daze, her lips trembling for a long time yet she was unable to say anything, "M-David?"
This sound was extremely painful to hear.
Alice stood quietly at the side. David looked at Elizabeth, then slowly walked around the table and knelt down.
Elizabeth looked at him in disbelief. After a long while, she reached out her hands to caress David's face, using her thumb and fingers to caress his face, caressing his eyebrows, nose and asked with a trembling voice, "Is that you? It's really you?
Why did this person look so much like her son? Why did they look so much like each other?
"It's me." David said while kneeling on the ground, and allowing her to stroke him, "Mother, I'm late."
After hearing that, Elizabeth's tears had dropped. She reached out and hugged David tightly into his embrace, his hands sticking to the back of his head. It seemed that if she were to let go, David would suddenly disappear.
"My son, my son is back."
Elizabeth choked up.
Alice stood there. She had never seen Elizabeth cry so recklessly.Elizabeth had always been a woman who was as beautiful as a painting.
"How can you be like this? How can you not contact your family for more than ten years? I thought you died, I thought you died, you bad boy."
"I'm sorry, Mother."
David kneel on the ground without making a sound, allowing Elizabeth to hit him. "How can you be like this? I really can't bear to part with you. How can you be like this?"
Elizabeth cried and cursed at the same time.
Charles and Daniel stood at the side. Until now, Charles had only recognized David and was completely stunned. Old Master Cullen family had died four years ago, but he was alive by using a substitute;
David's return allowed Elizabeth to erase the worries that had been plaguing her mind for many days. He cried and laughed, and finally allowed the maid to dress her up, dressing her up in a beautiful manner as she sat on the sofa in the hall.
As expected of the Young Master of the Cullen family,, David who could reconcile relations made his mother laugh with just a few words.
"The other women are all getting older and older. Only my mother is getting younger and younger, just like when I left."
"At that time, I was standing on the Chanel Bridge, watching those female models coming over. It was so ugly that I turned around and left."
"I also have a picture with the penguin. How is it? Not bad, right?"
David sat beside Elizabeth and held her hand, telling her everything that had happened in the recent years.Elizabeth smiled and listened, a pair of teary eyes staring straight at him. From time to time, she would reach out to stroke his face, afraid that her son who suddenly appeared would turn out to be a fake.
Alice and William sat together at the side as Alice turned to look at William. His expression was extremely ugly, with a pair of black eyes that had been staring at David and Elizabeth the entire time; it was unknown what she was thinking.
Alice pursed her lips, reached out to grab his, but before she could touch him, William pulled her hand out and placed it on her knee.
It was a seemingly unintentional action, but Alice's heart fiercely jumped; it was not good.
"I really didn't think that you would do such a thing. You have been so peaceful before, more peaceful than William."Elizabeth caressed David's face. Although she was complaining, her eyes were filled with the love of a mother for his son.
It's good that you're fine.
As long as he was alive.
"At that time, he was still young, so when he felt too much pressure, he thought of this idea and ran away." David laughed lightly, and said gently: "Now that I'm old, I know what to do and what not to do."
"What do you mean?"
Elizabeth looked at him in shock.
"I'll manage all the internal affairs of the Cullen family. William's character isn't good enough to contract those people to come into contact with, right?" David said, "Besides, I am after all, the eldest son of the Cullen family, so William has no rights to compete with me."
Hearing that, Alice looked at William, and William's expression became even uglier.
"Are you really willing to manage the Cullen family?"
Elizabeth asked happily, her hand clutching David's hand tightly.
Yeah, I've played enough outside. It's time to come back and take over the Cullen family's affairs. David said gently as he reached out to stroke Elizabeth's long hair. "How can I let such a beautiful mother grow old because of such complicated matters? I definitely won't allow it."
Elizabeth would never have heard these words from William, she laughed and said, "At your age, what nonsense are you spouting? It's naturally good that you're willing to come back and properly manage your Cullen family,and you brother can't possibly be any better."
There was money.
There was power.
He had the status.
Cullen family would have everything now.
"Yes." David nodded his head, then turned and looked at William, "William, I think so. Go back to San Francisco first, the news of father's death can't be made public for now. I will first settle the matters of Cullen family, then you can come back and mourn."
William's face became increasingly gloomy.
David looked at Elizabeth after she finished speaking, "Mother, what do you think about this?"
"Good, good. From now on, your brothers will be on the inside and the outside. It's good to have something to discuss with each other."Elizabeth was very satisfied with this result. This Cullen family also wanted David to inherit his legacy. David was gentle and calm, his talent was intelligent and his intelligence was high. It was difficult for two people to join hands with each other and cause others to regret over their status in the Cullen family.
"Since that's the case, William, Alice, go back to San Francisco tomorrow, wait for my news before coming back."
David said as he looked towards William and Alice.
Alice did not say anything and only looked at William. William stood up from the sofa with a gloomy expression and left without even turning his head. Leaving behind an awkward room.
Alice lowered her head to Elizabeth and David, and then chased after William.
William walked into the room, and smashed the door hard in front of Alice, who was blocked outside the door.
Alice looked at the door, her heart like something buried, and her eyes started to ache uncontrollably.
She adjusted her breathing, pushed open the door and walked in. William fell onto the bed, both hands pressing on his head. Suddenly, he sat up, grabbed a pillow and ferociously smashed it on her.
The pillow dropped beside Alice's feet.
Alice stood there and looked at William silently. She knew that William was angry at her, but she didn't know how to explain it.
She bent down to pick up the pillow and patted it gently without saying a word.
Alice carried her pillow and sat on a chair to the side, quietly accompanying William.
William's self-restraint was much stronger than before. If it was before, he would have long torn down the entire bedroom, but now he just threw a pillow. William sat on the bed, took off his shoes, and forcefully threw them on the floor. He then glared at Alice, and saw that she had sat there holding her pillow in a wronged manner, growling, "Why didn't you discuss it with me?"
