Unloved Unwanted Unstoppable (Seraphina and Dominic) novel Chapter 293

Madeline instantly switched to a docile expression and stammered, "U-Uncle Gideon."

Gideon stood behind her, his gaze sweeping over the chaotic scene, his expression cold enough to freeze water. "What happened here?"

Madeline's mind raced.

She knew exactly how much power Uncle Gideon wielded in The Capital.

Gideon was someone even the Lockwood family had to curry favor with. If the Cole family stamped their feet, the entire elite circle would tremble.

Regardless, her last name was Lockwood, and she was his relative. He wouldn't side against his own family.

Meanwhile, Seraphina was about to divorce her brother. She would no longer have any ties to the Lockwood family, and she definitely wouldn't have anything to do with Uncle Gideon.

Madeline covered her swollen cheek, her voice instantly taking on a weeping tone. "Uncle Gideon, thank goodness you're here! This crazy woman hit me! She shoved my son and slapped me twice! Look at my face..."

She offered up her cheek, which was already swelling noticeably.

"She even said that there isn't a single good person in the Lockwood family, that we're all scum! Listen to her, Uncle Gideon. Just because she can't make her marriage with my brother work, why should she drag the entire family into it? She's completely unhinged..."

Listening to this absolute fabrication, Seraphina's lips twitched, but she didn't bother speaking up.

She couldn't be bothered arguing with someone like this. It was exhausting.

But Lily couldn't stay quiet. She took a half-step forward, her voice timid yet stubborn. "Auntie is lying... That older boy shoved me first. He stepped on my shoes and yelled at me. Phoebe stepped in to protect me, and Auntie even had her men hold Uncle Zach down so he couldn't move..."

Madeline's face stiffened, and she glared down at Lily. "You brat, stop spouting nonsense! Your mother has ruined you!"

She shot a sideways glance at Gideon, waiting for him to lose his temper.

Sure enough, Gideon's face darkened further.

Joy surged in her chest. Uncle Gideon was angry. Seraphina was in for it now.

Gideon lowered his eyes and spoke up. "Seraphina isn't wrong. There truly isn't a single good person in the Lockwood family."
