He retracted his gaze and returned to Jiang Yining’s side with Abby in his arms.
“Send the guests out!”
The resolute words were spoken.
The servant hurried forward to escort Luna away.
Anger appeared in Luna’s eyes as she turned around and left.
Mr. Smith bowed respectfully to Jiang Yining and left with Luna.
There were only three people left in the living room.
Jiang Yining took Abby from Lu Zhi’s arms and coaxed her softly, “Abby, were you scared just now?”
Abby shook her head and said, “I’m sorry, sister. My mother was too harsh on you.”
Even children understand things, especially someone as sensible as Abby.
However, she couldn’t stop her mother’s behavior.
“The adults’s matters have nothing to do with you.” Jiang Yining said, “Even if your mother didn’t apologize just now, 1 wouldn’t have left you alone.”
“Sister, you’re so nice.”
Abby’s eyes sparkled as she looked at her. She looked exactly like a fangirl.
Jiang Yining patted her head and said, “You’re so sweet. Do you drink honey every day?”
Abby smiled brightly.
Jiang Yining coaxed Abby to sleep.
Then, she looked for Lu Zhi and asked, “Is it okay for you to have a conflict with Luna?”
The House of Manchester was huge, and Mr. Manchester couldn’t manage everything on his own. He delegated family affairs among his children, and Luna was his right-hand woman.
Therefore, she had the pride to back her up!
Unlike others who abused their family’s power.
If Luna didn’t want Lu Zhi to return to the House of Manchester, it would definitely be a big obstacle for him.
Jiang Yining was worried that this would happen.
Lu Zhi guessed her thoughts and patted her shoulder lightly, saying. “It’s okay. I’m telling the truth. 1 really don’t want to take over the House of Manchester’s business.”
He was born and raised in the Lu family.
Everyone in the Lu family treated him well, and one of the conditions for the House of Manchester to accept him back was to cut off all ties with the Lu family.
How could Lu Zhi do such a heartless thing?
Jiang Yining believed that he wasn’t lying. She smiled and asked, “Many people are eager to get involved with the House of Manchester, even if it’s just inheriting one in a million. They would dream about it. But you, you disdain it.” “Do you want it?” Lu Zhi hooked her chin and made her look at him. “Yining, if you want it, I’ll get it for you.”
He would bring whatever she desired to her.
Jiang Yining felt a bit uneasy under his gaze. She raised her hand and slapped away his demonic hand.
“Don’t joke around. Lu Zhi, why have you been so indecent recently?”
“You already know that it’s a joke. Why take it so seriously?”
Lu Zhi chuckled and suppressed the waves in his eyes.
Jiang Yining was speechless.
If she couldn’t win against him, why couldn’t she avoid him?
She turned around and walked towards her bedroom.
On the other side.
Luna felt indignant after being defeated by Lu Zhi.
She found her father and embellished the humiliation she felt from Lu Zhi and Jiang Yining.
She complained, “Father, you haven’t even brought him home yet, and he’s already so arrogant. He doesn’t take me seriously. If you really bring him home, won’t he be disrespecting me, his elder?”
Mr. Manchester was so shrewd, how could he not see through his daughter’s thoughts?
“You know better than anyone else whether he humiliated you or you deliberately stirred up trouble.” Mr. Manchester said, “Luna, 1 know that you’ve contributed a lot to the House of Manchester. I really owe you for not being able to leave the family assets to you. But you have to know that as a woman, you can’t inherit the title. Only All Zhi can inherit it.”
He had a son, but his son didn’t have any ambition.
He lived a carefree life, uninterested in the family business.
The only person he could rely on was his daughter.
Luna had been helping him with his business all these years.
Luna’s heart grew wild and she wanted more.
As her father, he had given her everything he could.
Luna looked depressed when she heard her father’s words.
Indeed.
She had targeted Jiang Yining everywhere, finding fault with her.
It wasn’t that Jiang Yining had provoked her, but that was her way of venting dissatisfaction with her father.
She had sacrificed so much for the family. In the end, all the benefits went to Lu Zhi.
How could she accept this!
“Father, I harbor no resentment towards you. 1 understand that all the decisions you’ve made are for the House of Manchester.” Luna spoke words contrary to her feelings, “But Lu Zhi… I really couldn’t tell that he was loyal to our family. I’ve explained to him that abandoning Jiang Yining and marrying Vinnie would be better for him and the entire House of Manchester. However, he was not even willing to make such a small sacrifice… 1 can’t imagine what he would do if you handed the entire family over to him.”
“I’ve already done my research. All Zhi is exceptionally capable. He was very talented, enough to take charge of the entire House of Manchester. As for Jiang Yining… She’s no less capable than Vinnie. Perhaps in the short term, she would not be as helpful to All Zhi as Vinnie. But in the long run, this child could become Lu Zhi’s strongest support. You don’t have to force Ah Zhi to give up on her,” Mr. Manchester said unhurriedly.
“But…” Luna wanted to persuade her father a little more.
Mr. Manchester raised his hand and interrupted her remaining words. “I’ve made up my mind. You don’t have to say anything more.”
Luna had to swallow the words she had on the tip of her tongue.
“Yes, Father.”
Mr. Manchester sensed her displeasure and suggested another idea, “Luna, if you’re unwilling to hand over the family, you can always have a son yourself as the heir to the family. 1 trust your abilities more than All Zhi.”
One was his daughter, who he had watched grow up and helped him for many years.
One was his grandson who was far away in a foreign country and had almost no contact with him.
The choice was clear for most people.
Luna, upon hearing this, unhesitatingly refused, “I won’t have another child.”
Her bond with her husband was profound.
Three years ago, in a plane crash.
Her husband had died in an accident, and there was no trace of his remains.
She made up her mind not to marry anyone else and spend the rest of her life with Abby.
At the thought of this, Luna said, “Father, 1 agree with you handing the family over to Lu Zhi. However, 1 suggest that you observe him more.”
“Well, that’s for sure.”
Mr. Manchester nodded.
Luna was very depressed after leaving her father’s place.
She deliberately forced herself to forget the past…
However, her father’s words reminded her again.
As long as that person’s face appeared in her mind, her heart would ache so much that she couldn’t breathe.
If it weren’t for Abby, perhaps she couldn’t hold on any longer and had left with her husband.
Forget it.
What was the use of fighting for so much?
When Abby grew up, she planned to find a place and put an end to it herself.
Just as she was thinking, a servant approached and said, “Miss, Miss Vinnie requests to see you.”
“Alright, please let her in.”
Luna restrained all her emotions and returned to her arrogant and dignified aristocratic posture.
It was as if the person who had been deeply hurt by emotions before wasn’t her at all..
