Chapter 180 Guess What Kind of Person I Am
In the evening, Lachlan brought Nora to the pharmaceutical company to pick up Miranda after work.
Upon seeing the little girl, Miranda furrowed her brow. "Lachlan, what's wrong with Nora? Whobullied her?"
Nora still had tears on her face, clearly having just cried.
"Miranda..."
Although she was still angry at Lachlan, when she saw Miranda, she politely greeted her by poutingher lips.
"Nora sweetie! Tell me what happened?"
Miranda picked up Nora and asked with concern as she looked at the teary-eyed little girl whoseemed so pitiful and adorable at the same time.
"Don't mind her. She's just throwing a tantrum."
Lachlan waved his hand impatiently.
"How could you say that? Nora is such a good kid. You need to be patient when taking care ofchildren! If you're not patient enough, let Nora stay with me!"
Miranda gave him a disapproving look and defended Nora without thinking twice about it. Shethought that sometimes men like Lachlan might lack patience when dealing with children.
"Nora can't separate from me for sure. You want to take care of her? Fine! Why don't you move intoEmerald Green Estates where I live? That way you can spend more time with her!"
Miranda rolled her eyes at him arrogantly and added sarcastically, "Do you want me to spend moretime with your daughter or do you have some ulterior motive?"
Lachlan smiled awkwardly, "What ulterior motive could I possibly have? My villa is huge; there areplenty of rooms."
The goddess CEO snorted disdainfully, "Hmph! No thanks!"
At this point, Miranda glanced at Lachlan's expression and for some reason felt worried that hemight actually be disappointed if she refused his offer. Then she quickly added, "At least not untilafter our wedding."
"Uh... okay."novelbin
Lachlan shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly while Miranda continued in a different tone, "Oh bythe way Lachlan, I want to visit my grandmother tomorrow morning. Do... do you have any freetime?"
Lachlan nodded in agreement, "Sure thing! Let me know what works best for your schedule since itseems like you're always busy."
"Great, then I'll ask my parents and Mason if they would like to come too," said Miranda beforeending their conversation for now.
The next morning, Lachlan drove Miranda and her father Emmanuel to the Lowe family's oldmansion.
Cara, the mother-in-law, had no interest in going as she knew it was to visit the old lady.
Emmanuel and Miranda felt obligated to show filial piety and insisted on going.
Cara didn't stop them but had no intention of doing anything for Victoria. Especially after hearingthat Romeo was planning an attack on Mason with a group of experts that night. Cara despised hermother-in-law even more.
She knew that Victoria gave power to Romeo which made all the high-level members of the Lowefamily obey him.
Of course, after learning that Lachlan had stabilized their underground forces and helped her sonout of trouble, Cara was even more satisfied with him as a son-in-law.
As for Mason, he had been too busy these past few days with many problems to solve so he didn'tcome along. But there was probably some resentment towards Victoria in his heart!
After all, if it weren't for Lachlan that night when they attacked Mason, he would have lost hisposition and might have been in danger!
At nine o'clock in the morning, three people arrived at the Lowe family's old mansion! The guardsoutside were stunned when they saw who it was!
When Emmanuel and Miranda approached along with Lachlan, the two guards stopped them fromentering.
"What are you guys here for?" One guard questioned Emmanuel and Miranda coldly.
"I'm here to see my mom! Move aside!" Emmanuel snapped back impatiently.
"Sorry sir but our orders are clear - your family is not allowed inside." The guard replied firmly.
Upon hearing this response, both Emmanuel and Miranda looked displeased.
"We're just here to see my grandmother! Why can't we enter?" asked Miranda frowning slightly.
Emmanuel added angrily, "If you know who I am then let me through! I'm here to see my mom!"
"Apologies sir but we were instructed by Mrs. Lowe not allow anyone from your family into thisproperty anymore." The guard shook his head without any hesitation.
No matter how much they tried negotiating, they stood there motionless. The father-in-lawEmmanuel and Miranda were both infuriated by this situation.
They knew their identities, but they still wouldn't let them in!
Just as the father and daughter were arguing with the guards, Lachlan pulled Miranda behind him.
"Move aside!"
Lachlan said to the two guards in a calm voice.
The two guards looked at each other when they saw Lachlan step forward. Their eyes flickered for amoment.
"I told you, if you're not part of the Lowe family, you can't come in! That's what Mrs. Lowe decided!"
One guard remained stubborn and unyielding despite Lachlan's words. However, his flickering eyesrevealed that he was somewhat intimidated by Lachlan's reputation as someone who had injuredover twenty of the Lowe family's top fighters.
Lachlan stomped his foot down. Everyone in the Lowe family knew about how he had defeated somany of their top fighters. These two guards couldn't help but feel nervous facing such a powerfulopponent.
"Rules? Ha ha..."
Lachlan sneered disdainfully, "Rules are meant to be broken if you have enough strength. If you'renothing special, then rules are made just for people like you."
Upon hearing this remark from Lachlan, both guards' expressions changed several times and theyswallowed nervously before stepping back out of instinct without daring to stop him from enteringthe mansion with Miranda and Emmanuel following closely behind him.
At this moment, Miranda looked at Lachlan beside her with admiration shining brightly in her eyes;she couldn't help but think that he was so domineering yet handsome at the same time! She usuallydisliked people who were arrogant or unreasonable like this guy earlier on; however why did shefind it so attractive when he acted that way?
In fact not only did Miranda find him attractive but Emmanuel also looked at Lachlan with anexpression full of satisfaction after being blocked outside by those gatekeepers earlier on; all hisfrustration disappeared instantly upon seeing how confident and assertive his son-in-law was actingnow!
A man should always be tough!
Emmanuel and Miranda were familiar with the area, making their way directly to Victoria'sresidence. As they arrived at the courtyard, they saw Victoria sitting outside, basking in the sun.
Eliza and Harlow were by her side, displaying a virtuous and filial appearance, showing care andrespect towards the elderly woman.
