Chapter 624
Graham, from the wealthy Lockwood family, was silent.
He did not know what to say to that.
At this moment, the guests present also could not stop talking among themselves.
It was mainly because the presence of the middle-aged couple here was too strange.
Moreover, it seemed like these two had some history with the Lockwood family. Otherwise, Graham would not have treated them politely.
Damon was watching from the side. He sighed and stared at the middle-aged couple with a cold gaze.
As for Kim and Colin, their faces were also ashen.
"Why are they here?' asked Colin, looking suspiciously at Kim.
Kim felt wrongly accused under Colin's sharp gaze. "How would I know?" she replied. "Don't tell me you think I brought them here. I'm not crazy. I'm so embarrassed by them!"
Colin stared at Kim again. After confirming that his wife was not lying, he looked at the middle-aged couple again.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, the middle-aged woman turned her gaze and looked in the direction of Kieran. She waved at him and pretended to sound kind. "Hey my boy, come here. Let Grandma and Grandpa give you a hug."
When Kieran saw the middle-aged couple, he could not help but take a step back with a pale face, as if he had seen a monster.
Elodia immediately felt a sense of fear. She was afraid that they would hurt Kieran.
Ziana pulled Elodia back and said, "Don't worry, this is the Lockwood family's residence."
Only then did Elodia relax a little.
"Are they your parents?' Ziana whispered to Elodia.
Elodia nodded. 'They used to ask me for money," she said. "I changed my contact number after the divorce. They haven't been able to contact me. I don't know how they could come here."
Ziana frowned when she heard that. Jocelyn chuckled and said, "Someone must be stirring up trouble."
At this moment, the guests could not help but look at the Lockwood family's second branch. They had also heard that the Lockwood family's second branch's young daughter-in-law was a country bumpkin. However, they did not expect that her parents were... Well, it was not that the guests looked down on country bumpkins.
However, the arrival of this middle-aged couple made it difficult for the guests to have a good impression of them.
"Hey, hubby, look at this brat. He's just like his mother. He's so ungrateful," said the middle-aged Lilian Hudson to Alistair Hudson. No matter how poor your grandparents' family is, we're still your biological grandma and grandpa. Look at you. You won't even let us hug you. What has
your mommy been teaching you?'
When Lilian saw Kieran's reaction, she could not help but lose her composure and curse loudly. Her tone was filled with grievance and grief.
Alistair also said pretentiously, "Daughters are indeed unloyal to their birth family. You don't even kiss your parents anymore. We raised you for nothing..."
Elodia was trembling all over.
Graham's expression darkened. 'Today is a happy day for my grandson and granddaughter-in-law. If the two of you are here to congratulate them, then the Lockwood family will naturally welcome you. If the two of you are here for something else, then don't blame us for asking the two of you to leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of guards charged over angrily.
Today was a happy day for Draxton, the patriarch, and his wife. How could the guards allow anyone to cause trouble?
The couple had never seen such a scene before. Their faces turned pale in fear. Alistair begged and said. Sir Graham Lockwood, we’re not. We haven't been able to contact our daughter for a long time. After that, we asked around and found out that she and Gary had divorced.
"That damn blood-sucking bitch. What's wrong with Gary? If she wants a divorce, see if we don't break her legs!"
He cursed angrily.
Elodia was trembling all over.
Although she never had any expectations for her parents, hearing such heart-wrenching words still made her feel cold all over and her blood drained from her face.
Gary could not help but step out and say, "We filed for divorce because I had let Elodia down. She did nothing wrong."
Kim's expression changed.
