His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 633

Chapter 633

“Something happened within the Lodge family. Do you know about it?” Arianna asked.

“You mean that the old man from the Lodge family is dead?” Nathaniel calmly replied as he started to clean up his bottles while studying them closely.

“Of course, that’s not all. Have you heard of Henry Lodge?” Arianna sat on Nathaniel’s chair and looked at him. “Since you’re Lily’s ex–boyfriend, you must know a thing or two about the Lodge family, right?”

Nathaniel sneered mockingly as the fingers that were fiddling with the incense stopped. Moments later, he continued, acting as if nothing had happened, “If it weren’t for Mother telling me about it, I wouldn’t have known she was from the Lodge family. So, how much do you think I know?”

“Huh?” His answer surprised Arianna. “Wow, you were quite a horrible boyfriend then.”

“That’s all in the past now!” His downcast eyes showed no emotions. “Why are you here, Ari? I’m sure it’s not just to lecture me.

Arianna drawled while playing with a pen on Nathaniel’s office table, “Since you don’t know the Lodge family…”

“Did I say I’m not familiar with them?!” Nathaniel snapped.

“Didn’t you…” Arianna was shocked. Just a while ago, he said he did not even know Lily was from the Lodge family, so how much could he possibly know about the family?

“Just because I didn’t know much about them last time doesn’t mean I’m still clueless. Also, it shouldn’t mean I’ll continue being ignorant.” Nathaniel stopped studying his incense bottle. and stared at his sister.

Then he smiled coyly and continued, “Henry Lodge is that old man’s youngest son, but he’s not much older than either Lily or Justin. He should’ve been the one to inherit the family head position, but he left the family years ago, and no one had heard of his whereabouts since. The Lodge family never tried searching for him, so it was as if they’d forgotten that he existed.”

His information was accurate, so Arianna nodded and commented, “That’s right, no one had expected him to return to the family at a time like this. Besides, his timing was impeccable. Who knew something this huge had happened within the Lodge family?”

“Wait, did you just say banished?” Arianna could not help but interrupt Nathaniel, shocked by this discovery.

Nathaniel stopped, glanced at her briefly, and nodded.

“Is your information credible?” Arianna frowned as she was skeptical of Nathaniel’s information. “If he were banished, that would’ve been huge news. Even if they tried to hide it, the Lodge family elders would’ve heard of this. Why would they still side with Henry, knowing he got banished from the family?”

“This is getting interesting,” Nathaniel took a seat in front of Arianna and took the he had made a while ago. He took a sip and drawled under Arianna’s intense gaze, “This could only mean that they were tied together by greed and a shared interest!”
