12 Chapter 12: Supporting a Little White Face
Translator: 549690339
Downstairs of the hospital, a black Bentley was parked on the side of the road.
Mercy Hospital was one of the best private hospitals in A City, and to maintain the hospital’s environment, even the hospital director’s car would be properly parked in the garage.
However, at this moment, the black Bentley was allowed to be driven directly into the hospital and parked downstairs of the inpatient building.
Samuel Mckinley came out of the inpatient building and saw the black Bentley, walking towards it.
He got into the passenger seat and softly reported, “Mr. Lucas, there seems to be a bit of trouble upstairs.”
The man resting with his eyes closed in the back seat didn’t even lift his eyelids, so Samuel quickly added more information.
“Although Miss Gray didn’t say it explicitly, she might be somewhat resistant to Mr. Lucas’s proposal..” Samuel hesitated for a bit before adding, “However, just as we investigated, she doesn’t have a good relationship with Caleb Lucas IV’s illegitimate child. When I left just now, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law just arrived, and they were speaking somewhat harshly.”
“Speaking harshly?” Ethan Wilson finally spoke, his sharp gaze falling on Samuel’s face.
Samuel couldn’t read Mr. Lucas’s thoughts and was scared by his cold and harsh gaze, so he stiffly added, “Miss Gray probably wants a divorce, but the Caleb Lucas IV family won’t let her go easily.”
Although the Caleb Lucas IV family also bore the Lucas surname, when compared to the head of the main Lucas family, they were merely a far-flung branch.
“Call Mr. Hammond, he knows what to do.” A moment later, Ethan closed his eyes again, “As for Lily Gray, let her be cold a little longer. Without my help, Ethan Wilson, there aren’t many people in A City who would dare take on the divorce case of the Lucas family.”
Even if they were only a branch of the Lucas family, as long as Austin Lucas carried the prestige of the Lucas family, he could still rule unchallenged in A City. Samuel nodded, understanding that Mr. Lucas intended to soften up Miss Gray’s temper, and didn’t say anything more. He bowed and left the car to handle another matter as Mr. Lucas had instructed.

Inside the hospital room, the farce continued.
“Lily Gray, just stop talking nonsense and sign these two documents now. If you sign them, considering your marriage to Austin, I’ll let Austin Lucas divorce you amicably. We won’t sue you for cheating and committing adultery. Otherwise.. hmm, you can wait to be utterly disgraced in A City!”
Michelle Carter arrogantly threw the two documents onto Lily Gray’s body.
She originally wanted to throw them directly at Lily Gray’s face, but at the moment of doing so, she was accidentally scared by the sharp intent in Lily Gray’s clear eyes.
As a result, the documents that were supposed to hit Lily’s face fell on her body instead.
Lily Gray sneered inwardly, Michelle Carter was truly a weak and fragile character.
Picking up the two documents and glancing at them, she burst out laughing.
“You.. what are you laughing at?!”
“What am I laughing at? I’m laughing at your Lucas family’s huge face..” Lily Gray unhesitatingly threw the documents in her hand onto the ground.
“Not only do you want my 40% share of Gray family’s stocks, but you also managed to come up with this confession statement. Mrs. Lucas, forgive my bluntness, but are all of you from the Lucas family snakes? You’re insatiable, trying to swallow an elephant whole, not afraid of choking to death.”
Lily Gray was truly angry this time, as the so-called confession statement asked her to sign and admit that she had cheated during her marriage. It also asked her to admit that she had kept a lover outside, and even if they were to divorce, all the blame for both parties’ wrongdoings would be pushed onto her side.
Ha, what a joke about keeping a lover. Just 48 hours ago, she, Lily Gray, was still untainted. What did she use to keep a lover?
