Chapter 267 My Beloved Niece is Still Pure
In the living room, Keith was reluctant to leave his wife behind because, since they registered their marriage, they had never been separated. When Keith went to the Military headquarters to apply for a transfer, Bridgette accompanied him.
He looked at August and said, “In-law, I have something to attend to and I will see you tomorrow.” Then he bid goodbye to everyone. His wife, Bridgette, walked with him to the car.
A few minutes later, Avery excused herself, then she took her husband’s hand, and they walked to the lift. Avery pressed the second-floor button. She took her husband to her bedroom.
Xavier was impressed when he saw Avery’s bedroom. It was lavishly decorated and smelled fresh. He sat on the sofa with his wife on his lap.
Xavier smiled at his wife and said, “Your home is stunning, and your bedroom is cozy.” Avery flashed him a beautiful smile and thanked him.
Xavier kissed her on the lips for a long time, and then he said, “It’s going to be a long night without you by my side, my stunning wife.” Avery nodded her head and replied, “After the ceremony, I will give you a reward.”
Xavier smiled mischievously and said, “I cannot wait, my stunning wife. I wish I could stay here with you much longer, but Grandpa is having a family meeting at 6 pm. He is expecting me to be part of the meeting.”
An hour later, Xavier and his wife headed to the living room hand in hand. They were over the moon when they saw the Shelton family. They kissed and hugged each other.
Lily looked at Avery with eyes filled with intense hostility. She was blaming Avery for stealing the Shelton family from her. She felt that the Shelton family’s love belonged to her since she knew them first.
When Ethan saw hostility in Lily’s eyes, he said, “Miss Parker, please note that my sister and my family owe you nothing.
Also, I am glad that you didn’t allow my parents to be your guardians. Should you hurt my sister in any way, I will deal with you.”
Lily felt aggrieved and replied, “Avery has stolen everything I hold dear from me. My late mother was your mother’s best friend, but since she passed away you don’t even remember my birthday.”
Logan looked at Lily coldly and said, “Do you blame us, Miss Parker? Who embarrassed my mother and my sister at her parents’ funeral service?
How could you stay at the Martins mansion whilst the Martins family Princess is staying outside? Do you think you are the Martins’ family Princess?
I am sorry to burst your bubble. You are nothing but a fake. You will never replace the Martins’ family Princess.”
Lily ran to the lift crying, then she pressed the first-floor button. Aunt Elizabeth looked at Avery viciously; she opened her mouth to say something, but the man standing beside Avery looked at her coldly.
She scoffed, and then she followed her niece. She tried to comfort her and said, “Don’t cry, Sweetheart. I promise Xavier will be yours.” Lily wiped her tears and replied, “I trust you, Auntie.”
Logan looked at his brother-in-law and said, “Big brother, I thought I was going to sleep in your tree house tonight, but I’ve changed my mind. I can’t leave my sister with these evil-hearted people. I will stay behind to protect her.”
Xavier smiled and replied, “Thank you, brother-in-law.” He bade everyone goodbye, and then Avery walked him to the driveway.
Avery stood next to the driver’s side smiling and said, “Drive safely, my handsome husband. Please don’t miss me too much.”
Xavier looked at his wife with gentleness in his eyes and replied, “I love you so much, my stunning wife. Please be careful of Aunt Elizabeth and your cousin.”
Avery flashed her husband a beautiful smile and said, “I love you more, my handsome husband. Should something happen to me, I will immediately call you.”
Xavier was dazzled by his wife’s smile, then he opened his car door and got out of the car. He hugged his wife tightly. Then he kissed his wife on her forehead, and said, “Please take care, my stunning wife.” He then got in his car and drove away.
Mrs Martins stayed in her niece’s bedroom plotting how to snatch Xavier from Avery. A few minutes later, the helper knocked on the door. When she was permitted to enter, she informed them that dinner was ready.
Lily took her aunt’s hand, then they headed to the dining room to eat. The atmosphere was lively in the dining room. Lily looked around hoping to see the handsome Xavier. Her heart sank when he didn’t see him.
Mrs Martins was surprised to see her son, Aiden, and asked, “What are you doing here, Aiden? Didn’t you say that you would never set your foot in this house?”
Aiden looked at his mother and shook his head. He was wondering if Mrs Martins was his biological mother and replied, “I am sorry to burst your bubble, Aunt Elizabeth. This is my father’s house, and I came for my sister, and not for you.”
His mother was taken aback when she heard the way his beloved son was addressing her. She knew that she had failed her son but nothing she could do because she loved Lily more.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
During dinner, Aunt Elizabeth looked at Avery and said, “I heard that your beloved ex-boyfriend had been left at the altar. Please do us a favour and go back to him. Didn’t you say you loved him the most?
My beloved niece is still pure, and she deserves the handsome young Mr Taylor. You are surrounded by people who love you, but my niece has no one.
Should you refuse to adhere to my instructions, I will embarrass you in front of the Taylor family.”
Avery laughed out loud and replied, “Aunt Elizabeth, I don’t remember discussing my relationship with Jordan with you. Bring it on. I am not scared of you.
Also, my husband is not an object, and he is allergic to dumb people.” Everyone laughed out loud.
Aunt Elizabeth felt humiliated, then she rushed to the other side of the table to beat up Avery. Aiden stood on his feet to stop his mother from hurting his sister. However, Bridgette moved faster and tripped her with her foot.
Aunt Elizabeth lost her balance. She fell and twisted her ankle. Aiden watched his mother sitting on the floor with a smile on his face and said, “You deserve it.” Then he sat down and ate his food as if nothing had happened.
Lily shook her head. Her aunt was the weakest link. Then she walked to her aunt and helped her up. She feigned concern and asked, “Are you alright, Auntie?”
Her aunt shook her head and replied, “I twisted my ankle, and it is very painful.” Lily looked at Avery coldly and asked, “Why are you always hurting your mother, Avery?”
