Chapter 143 Taking The Kids Home
Although she felt sorry for her Big Brother, she did not want to work deep down in her.
The others were probably feeling the same as Yale.
Ignoring the presence of the Riker family’s outsiders, Roger, Bernard, and Shepard also squeezed over and surrounded Isabella.
“Isabella, please take pity on us. Don’t let Big Brother arrange jobs for us. We are really busy, and we are not suitable for work.”
That was Bernard’s sincere request.
“Isabella, look at me. I’m still a child. You have to pity me. I’m really, really tired from school every day. Can you ask Big Brother to leave me alone since I’m still young?”
Roger looked pitiful when he begged.
Shepard also had a fawning look on her face. “Isabella, Big Brother is wise and capable. The Lockwood family needs only him. Besides, he has so many capable people under him. Why would he need us?”
Olivia nodded repeatedly. “That’s right. They’re right. Sister-in-law, you must help us persuade Big Brother not to let him arrange jobs for us.”
Isabella was startled as she thought.
“What kind of brats were these?”
This was what she had not expected and she was a little taken aback. She knew that the Lockwood family kids seemed to be free, but it turned out that they were all lazy.
She could not help but feel sorry for Draxton. After all, he was her man. How could she let these little ones off so easily?
Hence, she looked at them with a mischievous grin.
She said, “Don’t you guys know that if you’re Big Brother gets his burden off work, he will have more time to accompany me.”
That was unexpected!
The looks of anticipation on their faces froze when they heard Isabella saying that.
When they returned to their senses, they looked at Isabella in horror. All of them were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they pouted their lips. Each of them looked more pitiful than the other.
Isabella chuckled and looked at them in amusement.
“Isabella, 40,000 times 80,000 is equivalent to 320,000, right? Although I’m brilliant, I’m not qualified to help Big Brother. Being a lazy brat is what I’m good at.”
Bernard said tactfully.
“Sister-in-law, I don’t know how to calculate one plus one equals two. I’m not qualified either.”
“Isabella…”
They kept trying to get away with having to work.
Isabella was amused and helpless as she looked at them and said, “You guys! What nonsense are you talking about? Aren’t you afraid of letting outsiders laugh at you?”
Roger felt wronged. He complained, “But, Isabella, this outsider was trying to sow discord between us.
“They clearly know that the few of us are useless, but they still did this. They want to make the Lockwood family perish because of us. They are up to no good.”
“That’s right, sister-in-law, you have to stand up for us. They want to harm the Lockwood family,” The few of them spoke at once.
Isabella squinted her eyes slightly and smiled. She looked at Lindon.
Lindon and Shane were dumbfounded.
