The billionaire's kick-ass wife novel (Isabella) novel Chapter 217

Chapter 217 Elodia Hudson

Elodia looked at Cressida and smiled mechanically before saying, “No.”

When Cressida saw how timid she was, a dark glint flashed in her eyes. She couldn’t help but laugh. “Oh, I haven’t introduced myself yet. Elodia, I’m Cressida Langley. You can just call me Cressida.”

“Nice to meet you, Cressida,” Elodia said softly.

Cressida held Kim’s arm affectionately and said, “Aunt Kim, Elodia is quite obedient and sensible. It seems like you have taught her well.”

Kim smiled and said dotingly, “All you know how to do is flatter others.”

Kim’s sister–in–law also smiled and said, “Kim, you don’t know. This girl’s mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter by the day. She coaxes both of us and her grandpa every day and makes us happy without fail. Her grandpa dotes on her the most.”

“Mom, Grandpa’s favorite is obviously my brother,” Cressida said.

At the side, Kim’s elder brother named Shawn Langley was chatting with Gary.

Shawn said, “Sebastian started a company in Hamilson City.

“The Lockwood family has a branch company in Hamilson City, right? Can I request you to ask your cousin if he’ll be able to help?”

Gary nodded and said, “It’s good that you like to do business. I’ll talk to my eldest cousin later.

“If he agrees, then the Lockwood family’s branch company in Hamilson City will definitely be of great help to your family.”

Shawn’s face was instantly filled with smiles. He sighed and said, “I’m grateful for you all.”

“It’s no big deal. We’re family.”

Shawn patted Gary’s shoulder and said, “Yes, you’re right. We’re family and we support each other!”

Shawn paused for a moment before continuing, “Your cousin is already 23 years old this year. She has been talking about Bernard for five years.

“They’re not young anymore. If your cousin can marry Bernard, the Lockwood family and the Langley family will become even closer.”

Gary smiled and said, “Uncle Shawn, you have to talk to my mother about this. I don’t know how to matchmake.”

Kim, Kyla, and Cressida all laughed in response.

Cressida blushed shyly.

Kim’s sister–in–law said, “Kim, since Shawn mentioned this, why don’t you ask Patriarch Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood about this?

“Cressida is a very eligible bachelorette.”

Kim said, “Of course she is! Since Cressida likes Bernard, I’ll ask them when I get back tonight.”

Shawn’s family of three was all smiles.

They chatted and laughed while Elodia walked at the back, looking like an outsider.

She could not help but look at Gary’s back silently. From the beginning to the end, he did not even look at her, as if he had already forgotten her existence.

Not only that, he even locked the door to the pool. If she didn’t know how to swim, she would have drowned. Fortunately, she did know how to swim. She had deliberately fallen into the pool to seduce Draxton.

At that time, she was young and impetuous. She was so angry that she knocked on Draxton’s bedroom the same night to seduce him again. In the end, that man threw her directly into Patriarch Lockwood’s zoo. Faced with the lion’s mouth and Draxton’s cold gaze, she realized at that moment that Draxton was not someone she could provoke.
