Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love

Chapter 428: Chapter 431: Austin Lucas changes his mind about her

Zara Lucas saw that Brandon Lucas frowned, immediately corrected herself, “Yes… I understand, Daddy.”

To be able to find a suitable marriage partner at this banquet…

Zara Lucas was about to go crazy with frustration.

She kept learning different etiquette rules, even suppressing her true nature to try and be elegant and polite.

Zara, a naturally wild child, could hardly adapt to this kind of life.

After being reprimanded, she instinctively turned to Austin Lucas.

She hoped that her brother would say something on her behalf in front of her father.

However, not only did Austin not come to her defense…

His attention wasn’t even on her at all.

It wasn’t clear who Austin Lucas was waiting for.

He seemed distracted, constantly looking towards the entrance.

“Brother…what are you looking at?” Zara couldn’t help but ask.

Austin heard her question and finally looked away, “Nothing.”

Zara couldn’t help but mutter, “If it’s nothing, why did you keep looking at the banquet hall entrance…”

Austin heard her words, and his eyebrows couldn’t help but furrow slightly, his handsome face showing a touch of annoyance.

Michelle Carter heard the conversation between the two and quickly guessed Austin’s intentions.

She couldn’t help but remind him, “Son, you’re not waiting for Lily Gray, are you? Will that woman really come to cause trouble?!”

Austin heard Michelle’s words and his eyebrows furrowed deeper.

But he didn’t respond.

“Oh, if she really causes trouble, that would be just perfect! I’d love to see what will happen when that mistress meets her legitimate wife.”

At this point, Zara was also intrigued by Michelle’s words.

“Mom, you’re right. Last time at the shopping mall, that despicable Lily Gray tried to compete with me for a dress… I bet she’ll show up tonight! Hehe, I just don’t know if she will end up being carried out horizontally in the end…”

“Hmph, a cheap woman who doesn’t know her place…she deserves it…”

“Enough!”

Austin suddenly snapped, unable to listen to Michelle’s and Zara’s conversation anymore.

He was waiting for Lily Gray to appear.

But…

This was different from Michelle’s and Zara’s reasons, who just wanted to see Lily embarrassed.

He was simply…worried about her.

That damn Lily Gray!

He had never had this feeling before.

He didn’t know when it started, but he actually became worried about her unconsciously.

“Where did both of your ears go when I just spoke to you…” Brandon Lucas frowned discontentedly at this moment.

“You both better say less. This banquet is hosted by the Lucas family. Even if the ex-daughter-in-law comes, it’s still the main Lucas family’s business. When the time comes, both of you better watch your mouths and not cause any trouble!”

Brandon Lucas didn’t have any significant grievances towards Lily Gray.

However, after learning that Lily Gray had become Ethan Wilson’s mistress, he felt one way or another that he was losing face.

After all, Lily Gray was once Austin’s wife, his daughter-in-law.

At this kind of time, their family should be avoiding the issue.

Only fools like Michelle and Zara would jump out impatiently, fearing that others wouldn’t notice Lily Gray’s past relationship with their family.

Michelle felt humiliated by Brandon’s scolding in front of their children, so she tried to please him by changing the subject. “Don’t worry, husband. I will control myself… By the way, we have a great view from our seat, right at table ten, which is quite close to the front!”

“Of course, we are a branch of the Lucas family. Mr. Lucas values us very much!”
