Chapter 284

Chapter 284 Cheating On You How shameless! Maximus looked at Cordelia with a puzzled expression, asking, “Delia, is this guy really my brother–in–law?”

“He-“Just as Cordelia was about to explain to Maximus that Emrys was just teasing him, she suddenly saw Emrys stride forward.

Emrys then pushed Cordelia onto the couch and playfully slapped her bottom a few times.

“See? If I’m not your brother–in–law, would I dare to playfully slap your sister like that?”

Maximus and Cordelia were left speechless.

“That’s right, Maximus. He’s your brother–in–law. You must remember his face. Even if he were reduced to ashes, he would still be your brother–in–law.” Just then, Lydia suddenly walked in from outside, speaking in a firm tone.

This time, Cordelia wasn’t the only one blushing profusely. Even Emrys felt somewhat embarrassed.

He let go of the small, perky bottom he was holding and said, “Ms. Ginger, we were just fooling around!”

“What nonsense! I don’t care. I only believe what I just saw and heard. You can’t even keep your own word. Are you even a man?” Lydia provocatively said to Emrys.

She was trying to force Emrys to comply.

Emrys‘ gaze shifted, and a profound smile suddenly appeared on his lips as he said, “Ms. Ginger, I’ve noticed that ever since I finished the acupuncture treatment for Mr. Youngblood, your complexion has truly become more and more radiant.”

Sure enough, as those words were spoken, a touch of charming blush swept across Lydia’s face, a woman full of elegance and charm.

Then, she glared at Emrys.

Thanks to Emrys, Richard was now truly full of energy and vitality.

Lydia had been lonely for over a decade. However, in the past few days, she had finally experienced an unprecedented level of satisfaction. The bond between her and her husband had also rapidly strengthened.

However, such matters couldn’t be discussed in front of their children.

Lydia knew that Emrys was retaliating against her. She glared at Emrys, and they understood each other’s intentions. Subsequently, they remained silent and refrained from making further jokes at each other’s expense.

That was a form of tacit understanding between the two.

Emrys and Lydia both shut their mouths at the same time, no longer joking with each other.

Chapter 284 Cheating On You However, Maximus found himself feeling rather exasperated. Something’s not right about those two, especially when their gates met earlier. It’s clear that something’s off. There was even a hint of ambiguity in Otherwise, why would Mom blush… Wait a minute!

“he air.

Maximus seemed to have uncovered a shocking secret. He ran off to find Richard and said, “Dad, I have something to report to you…”

He reenacted both the expressions and conversation of Emrys and Lydia from earlier.

A look of embarrassment crossed Richard’s face, thinking that his secret had already been discovered by Maximus. However, his unspeakable problem had already been resolved, so even if Maximus knew, it wouldn’t matter.

“Therefore, I believe Mom must’ve cheated on you.” After Maximus had vividly demonstrated a series of actions, he suddenly concluded with this statement.

Upon hearing those words, Richard turned pale with anger.

In the end, Maximus inevitably received a thorough beating.

Meanwhile, Cordelia in the living room remained calm, clearly accustomed to such scenes. That was because she had long noticed the peculiar interaction between her parents and Emrys.

Hence, there was no need to be surprised.

At that moment, Lydia suddenly said, “Good nephew, Cordelia, I have something to tell you both.

Tomorrow at noon, Solomon has invited our entire family over for a meal at his place.”

Solomon Atkinson, Myles‘ father, was the head of the Atkinson family. He had an extremely close relationship with Richard, as they had been friends for generations.

During their free time, it was customary for the two families to gather for a meal together.

Lydia added, “Furthermore, this time they specifically requested that both of you join us.”

“Both of us?” Emrys pointed at himself in surprise.

Emrys could understand Cordelia being included, but he was puzzled as to why he was cordially invited to dinner, especially considering his past conflicts with Myles.

He suspected that they might have ulterior motives and were planning to embarrass him.

Lydia clarified, “Didn’t Myles accompany us to Jadeborough last time? However, he left before us on his own accord. Later, he felt remorseful and decided to make it up to you tomorrow.”
