Chapter 423 Let Them Comenovelbin
Miranda let out a cry and felt herself being enveloped in a broad embrace. The anxiety she had been feeling about the situation suddenly dissipatedat this moment.
She had intentionally said those words to provoke Lachlan. pretending that she wanted to break up with him and stimulate him. But she didn't expectLachlan to actually get angry and show an unprecedentedly domineering side.
"What are you doing? Let go of me!"
“You scoundrel!”
"Don't you have many other admirers? Go hug someone else!"
Miranda struggled hard for a few times but found it futile, then glared at Lachlan with hatred.Upon hearing her words, Lachlan knew that she was still upset about those photos
“Heh heh, aren't you right here in front of me?”
At these words, Miranda's pretty face was covered with frosty anger as her beautiful eyes showed a hint of grievance and resentment. They eventurned slightly red.
“Lachlan, you bastard! What do you take me for?”
"Why? Were you deliberately acting like a jerk in front of me?”
"Why? Since we've come this far today talking about this matter, then you must give me an answer.""In fact, there's nothing between you and those women, right?”
Lachlan looked at the exquisite face before him which carried both expectation and resentment. He felt pity and guilt welling up inside him. But thenext second he took a deep breath pretending not to care much as he shrugged his shoulders, "What's wrong with your head? You're making nosense...”
With that said, he turned around directly picking up his spcon again
Miranda stood there, biting her red lips as she gazed at Lachlan. She could sense that there were many things hidden in this man’s heart, things hedidn't want her to know. In that moment, it seemed like Miranda could delve into his innermost thoughts and find out the truth.
After a while, the family gathered around the dining table, having dinner together. "Daddy, hug!” Little Nora, who hadn't seen her father for a few days,stuck to Lachlan during the meal. insisting on being held while eating
Emmanuel seemed particularly happy tonight, toasting Lachlan one cup after another. As they drank, they even started calling each other brothers,causing Cara, Miranda and Mason te roll their eyes incessantly.
But as they continued to drink..Bang!
Emmanuel forcefully placed his wine glass on the table and sat there, suddenly bursting into tears. “Why? Why would she treat me like this? Don'tyou all Know that I am her son? Her... biological son..."
"Mom, are you really my mother?"
Saying this, Emmanuel grabbed Lachlan's hand, tears streaming down his face as he asked, "Lachlan. do you think I'm a failure in life? Even my ownmother has no feelings for me! How... how much am I despised?"
Lachlan looked at his father-in-law and could feel his sadness and heartache. Cara, Miranda, and Mason alse fell silent, their expressions grim.Although Emmanuel tried his best to appear cheerful, the feeling of being betrayed by his own mother was impossible to bear.
In the end, it all came pouring out, fueled by the alcohol.
“Emmanuel, don't you still have us?”
Lachlan advised in a deep voice, feeling a pang of sorrow in his heart. "Emmanuel, your mother is cold-hearted, it has nothing to do with you! Whycry? It's not worth it!"
Cara held her husband's hand and spoke. Miranda and Mason also offered comfort.
But Emmanuel cried even harder, holding onto Cara's hand, his tone filled with guilt and shame. “Honey, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to Miranda and Masontoo! And to make Lachlan risk his life for me alone!"
"I'm sorry, all of you! I swear, I'll never be foolish again..."
"What I did before, it was just blind filial piety..."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The door of the Farnrene Mansion, Emmanuel and Cara's residence, was knocked on.
Victoria was accompanied by her third son, Owen, her fourth son, George, Miranda’s Aunt Jennifer, and several bodyguards.
This old lady was both cunning and shrewd. She was also afraid that her eldest son’s family would not show her respect after what she had just done."Mom, it seems like Emmanuel's family isn't here either!” Owen frowned.
Previously, they had already been to Miranda’s villa, but they hadn't found anything there either.
"Could they be at Lachlan's house?" Victoria said with a stern face.
In the next moment, she looked at her youngest daughter, Jennifer, and said, "Jennifer, call Miranda and ask where they are."
Miranda's Aunt Jennifer nodded and said, "Okay... I will."

Just then, Miranda's phone rang, and after glancing at it, her expression suddenly became strange."What's wrong? Who is it?" Cara asked."It's Jennifer," Miranda said.
"Jennifer? Hmph, what does she want?”
"Give me the phone, I'll take it," Cara said, raising an eyebrow and speaking in an unfriendly tone.
At this point, she didn't have much fondness for the Lowe family.
Although Miranda's Aunt Jennifer hadn't had any direct conflicts with her, she hadn't been of much help either.
When they were kicked out of the Lowe family, no one had come to their defense, fearing to offend the old lady and choosing self-preservation.When Lachlan married their daughter, not a single one of them, as siblings, uncles, or aunts, had bothered to attend.
Without waiting for any objections, Cara snatched the phone from her daughter's hand and asked in an annoyed tone, "Who is it?”
"It's Jennifer. How come you didn't even save my number?" Jennifer asked with a smile.
"I'm Cara! Jennifer, what's the matter?" Cara asked indifferently.
“Oh, oh, it ‘smy sister-in-law! It'snothing, (Just heard that somethinghappened to my brother before, sothought I'd ask. Is my brother okaynow?1'm really worried.” Jennifersaid with a concerned tone. Contentbélongs to NovelDrama.Org ~
"Heh, it's rare that his sister still remembers that she has an eldest brother. Rest assured, your brother is fine! Is there anything else?” Cara said witha mocking tone.

Upon hearing this, Cara’s face changed, and she snorted coldly.Victoria actually had the audacity to want to come and see her eldest son? Where did she get the courage from?Cara was furious and wanted to kick them out directly. But at this moment, Lachlan stopped her.
“Cara, let them come.”
