Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 53

Chapter 53 Make him kneel down and apologize

As Lachlan and Miranda entered the old mansion, they saw two figures engaged in a fierce battle in the courtyard. The Lowe family and Josiah's group were seated on opposite sides, watching the fight.

Charlie Lowe, the guardian of the Lowe family, was fighting against Black King Kong. Charlie was an orphan who had been adopted and trained by the Lowe family since childhood. He was fiercely loyal to them and equally skilled as a beginner in Dark Force Realm.

When everyone noticed Miranda and Lachlan approaching, all eyes turned towards them.

"You dare to come here, you bastard!" Josiah snarled at Lachlan upon seeing him.

The other members of the Lowe family also looked at him curiously. Except for Mason and Romeo's families, including Miranda's parents who were meeting him for the first time.

Emmanuel and Cara looked at him coldly with undisguised contempt despite not agreeing to their daughter marrying someone outside their circle. Even though they had heard that he knew some martial arts skills they still considered him nothing more than a servant or gigolo in their eyes.

Victoria gave him a cold look full of malice as she said mockingly, "Oh look who it is? The little gigolo has arrived?"

Harlow sneered at Lachlan with a sarcastic tone. Eliza grinned but didn't laugh as she turned to Miranda and said, "Miranda, you said you wanted a dependable boy toy. This guy is nothing but trouble! He just got here and already caused problems for the family! And he did it all for another woman by offending Tiger's son. You don't even know about it yet, do you?"

Right off the bat, Eliza was trying to stir up trouble.

Miranda remained expressionless as she replied, "I know about it. But that was just Lachlan standing up for his friend. It's what friends do."

Lachlan had already explained everything to her that day.

In truth, he hadn't really been defending Reeva; Josiah had slapped him first without provocation.

"You know? And yet you still defend him? Are you really that taken in by this smooth talker?" Victoria asked coldly as she tapped her cane on the ground.

"Grandma, things aren't like that," Miranda tried to explain.

But Victoria waved her hand dismissively and said, "We'll talk about this later after the fight is over. If Charlie loses then I'll let Mr. Webb take him away. No one else is allowed to say anything!"

With those words spoken firmly by the matriarch of the Lowe family who never wavered from her decisions once made - no one dared defy her - Mason's eyes flickered uncertainly before he decided not to argue with his grandmother directly.

Miranda pursed her lips anxiously and looked towards her younger brother with worry etched in her beautiful eyes.

Once the old lady had spoken, it was clear that if Charlie lost, the Lowe family would hand Lachlan over to Tiger's men and wouldn't protect him anymore. Miranda could only hope that her brother could keep Lachlan safe.

To everyone else, even though Lachlan had single-handedly taken down seven assassins before, they were all at most in the Bright Force Realm. However, Black King Kong under Tiger's command was a master of Dark Force. If Lachlan fell into his hands, it would be very dangerous!

Mason gave his sister a reassuring look. He had already planned that once they took away Lachlan, he would have his men rescue him as soon as they left the old mansion.

At this moment, while Miranda was nervous and worried about what might happen to Lachlan next, he himself seemed calm and relaxed as he watched the fight unfold.

"Honey," said Lachlan with surprise in his voice as he watched on. "I never thought your family would be so kind to me and actually protect me."

Before anyone could respond to him, however Emmanuel snorted coldly, "You're just an ignorant fool who doesn't know any better! Do you really think that my family will protect you? We fought hard for this opportunity by Mason!"

Lachlan made a sound of acknowledgement before turning towards Miranda's parents.

Miranda then remembered to make introductions, "This is my dad, and my mom."
