Chapter 383 Jackson‘s Attitude
Chapter 383 Jackson‘s Attitude
Seeing that Noble was holding Jackson's arm and walking in front of her, Carry deliberately slowed down a few steps to keep the pace with Sherry. Her voice was suppressed by her in a low voice, full of gossip. "What's going on between Eric and that little girl?"
"Mom..." Frowning, she glanced at her and said, "I'm in trouble now. You still have the mood to gossip here."
Carry chuckled, "Noble knows about it, doesn't he? Are you trying to keep it on purpose? Otherwise, why did he stop you from talking again and again just now?"
She glanced at her and said, "You've already guessed it. Why are you still asking me?"
"I'm just curious. Why is Eric in such a hurry to find a fiancee at such a young age? Is it because of the Gu family or because he is willing to?" Carry continued to ask.
Sherry had already been defeated by her mother's gossipy spirit, and she also knew her character and wanted to know something. If she couldn't get the result she wanted, she would keep asking.
After thinking for a while, she didn't have anything to worry about since everyone had known it. So she told her everything that had happened between them, including what she had experienced with him.
Of course, many of these things had been deliberately magnified by her, such as the good things of Lily, and the things she had experienced with Eric.
Carry was not the only ones who listened to the story. Although Sherry's voice was not loud, they could hear it clearly.
As the three of them listened and talked, they unconsciously stopped and circled around. The other three didn't seem to find anything and continued to walk forward.
After saying that, Sherry breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at her mother and aunt with beseeching eyes. With her hands clasped in front of her chest, she said, "Aunt, mother, you two must help them speak in front of grandparents. Although they are a little younger, Lily is really good to brother Eric. And brother Eric would rather die for Lily."
"Do they really love each other so much?" Betty still had some doubts.
With a nod, she said, "Aunt, you've never seen her before. When Lily was in danger several times, brother had come to save her in person, and I had helped her before, so I know that. If it were another girl, I wouldn't have helped her. But this woman was Lily. How nice she was. Before I came back to G City, she cooked a lot of delicious food for me."
When Betty and Carry heard this, they two looked at each other. Didn't know how much they believed in her words.
Lily pushed Joe to make a deep bow in front of Wayne's portrait, and then pushed the wheelchair aside to make room for the people behind.
Then there were Kerr, Tina, Dillon, Eden and Eden.
After the funeral, Lily bent over and said something to Joe. Then he saw her loosen his wheelchair and walk towards Eric.
"Eric." She called him in a low voice. She hadn't seen him for a few days and missed him very much.
Looking at her, Eric held her hand naturally and looked at her with his black eyes. He had a lot to say, but he didn't know what to say. It seemed that thousands of words couldn't be seen. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Lily's eyes turned red, and she held his hand tightly. If possible, she really wanted to stand here with him all the time.
Of course, the fact did not allow it.
After calming down a lot, Lily noticed that the person standing here was a little strange. Dale and Ethan were standing next to him, but they were supposed to come.
However, she didn't see anyone who should have appeared here but didn't show up at all… Frank and Jade.
Logically speaking, Frank was the eldest grandson of Wayne. He had to come, but he did not!
Jade was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu clan, she shouldn't have been absent, but she didn't come either. It was really strange that the mother and son were absent at the same time.
Noticing this, Lily turned to Eric and asked, "Where are Jade and Frank? Why didn't they come?"
Eric shook his head, "I don't have the energy to care so much. I really don't know what they have done."
"Okay." Lily frowned. She felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what it was.
Seeing that Lily was pestering Eric like this, Tina walked over from Kerr's arms and held her hand. "Eric is also busy here. You can talk to each other later."
Lily nodded subconsciously. Then she took a look at Eric and left with Tina.
Of course, before leaving, Tina also told Angela a few considerate words.
Walking out of the mourning hall with Tina, Lily subconsciously looked up to look for her, only to find that Sherry had already disappeared. She guessed that she must have left. Thinking of this, she did not stay any longer and went back to the Qiao family's old house with them.
After taking care of Wayne's funeral, the second day was the beginning of the government's bidding. Richard had no time to rest at all. After breakfast, he rushed to the company.
Eric didn't go with him. He had said before that he would let Richard face everything of the Gu company alone. He wouldn't go to the bidding with him. He would keep his words.
Moreover, Morgan had taken him and Noble to meet Sam and known the existence of the Gu company. As long as nothing unexpected happened, it wouldn't be difficult to win the project.
In addition, he was really tired two days ago and didn't have a good rest, so he wanted to take this opportunity to rest for a few hours. However, the reality was not as expected. He received a call.
It was a call from Noble. She said in a serious tone, "Eric, come to my villa. Grandpa and grandma want to see you."
Hearing this, Eric felt a little uneasy and asked subconsciously, "Brother, what happened?"
"Come here quickly. Grandpa and grandma are waiting for you in the hall." Instead of answering his question, he said so. Then he hung up the phone.
Looking at the black phone in his hand, Eric felt more and more strange. He always felt that something was going to happen.
'Forget it. It's not appropriate for the elders not to see me. I have to go!'
Having made up his mind, Eric was about to put away his phone, but at this time, his phone vibrated and a message came in.
He glanced at the sender and found that it was none other than Ryan. Why did he send the message?
Confused, he clicked on the message. When he saw the few words, his mood was as heavy as a thousand pounds.
The message read, "The sun clan has known your relationship with Lily."
It was true that something was going to happen, and it was a big deal. How could they know?
With suspicion, he drove to the villa of Noble alone.
He didn't know whether he should tell this to Kevin or not. If he told her, he was afraid that she would be anxious. If he didn't tell her, what if the Sun family found her
The more he thought about it, the more restless he felt. Under such a state of suffering and entanglement, he had arrived at the place where Noble lived.
Getting out of the car, he took a deep breath, frowned and entered the door.
The atmosphere in the living room was as serious and depressing as that in the phone call from Noble.
Jackson was sitting on the sofa in the most formal position in the living room, and Amanda was sitting next to him. At the same time, Betty and Carry were also there. Of course, Sherry was also there, but she lowered her head fiercely, her small hands twisting on her knees uneasily.
But he didn't see Noble. He didn't know where he had gone.
This scene… Eric had seldom seen before. He always knew that Jackson was serious, but he had never seen him treat him like today.
Hearing the footsteps, Sherry suddenly raised her head and frowned tightly. Her watery eyes were full of self blame.
Of course, Eric also noticed her action. When he saw her like this, he immediately understood that his relationship with Lily must have been spilled out by this girl!
Usually, she would talk too much, but at critical moments, she would always make a slip of the tongue. This time, after secretly glaring at her, he turned to look at Jackson and walked straight to him.
"Grandpa." He called out respectfully, "Brother said you wanted to see me. What's up?"
Although he knew the answer, he had to pretend to ask.
"Do you remember what I told you?" Jackson asked seriously.
Seeing that he didn't point it out, Eric also pretended to be ignorant, "Grandpa has told me a lot."
The implication is that I don't know what you are talking about.
Jackson sneered, "You've learned to be glib. What's going on between you and the daughter of the Qiao family? How old are you? How could she be your fiancee? What's more, you two live together. Was she so ill bred? How did her parents teach her? Does she know how to fool around with men at such a young age?"
"Grandpa!" Eric frowned more tightly, "She is not that kind of person. Don't talk about her like that. I bought the house and we lived together. But nothing happened. You think too much."
"Think too much? Huh..." With a slight smile, Jackson continued, "We met her in the hospital last time. I heard that she was one of the shareholders. At that time, I felt quite satisfied with her. She knew how to invest and make money at such a young age. Now I think she is just so so."
"Grandpa!"
"Grandfather..."
Eric and Sherry spoke at the same time. Eric's tone was firm, while Sherry was a little timid. Although she was usually careless and could be unscrupulous in front of Jackson, she didn't dare to be as presumptuous as before when he was angry.
