Chapter 100
In the living room, Lionel and the others were talking t o Godfrey about the event on the 15th. They did
not want to miss the fun. If the new house turned out pretty, they had another excuse to badmouth
them to Grandmother Sue; if the house turned out ugly, they could also take this opportunity to laugh at
it.
Lydia was most worried about this matter being made known to the Sue family, her plan was to rent a
room t o deal with Fred. If she got away with it and made less contact with Fred, she would not be
unmasked.
However, it would be troublesome and more difficult t o muddle through if the Sue family knew about it.
By then, it would only a matter of time before she was unmasked. When the Sue family found out that
she lied about her wealth, she would be teased to death.
The news had not leaked out in the Sue family, but the whole commotion had started because of
Samuel, and Lydia simply wanted to kick Samuel out of the house.
"Godfrey, are you really not going to invite us?" Lionel asked with a look of discontent.
"This is a joyous event, we're siblings, we have to go and celebrate with you."
"Yes, it’s hard to move out of that shabby house, we have to go see it."
Just then at the dinner table, this group of people was
enraged and mad. This time round, they put on a mask pretending to have good intentions. However,
Gorfrey knew very well what was in their mind.
The house had been exposed, if he did not invite them, he would be even more ostracized in the Sue
family and fall into disrepute.
"Okay, I'll inform you of the place by then," Godfrey announced.
"What so secretive about it? It's not like you're embarrassed to share, right?" Lionel sneered. The
house was already paid for. It was a matter of time before he had to reveal the true location of the
house and it would not change even if Godfrey refused to share it. Godfrey must have felt that the
property was not good and felt shameful to reveal.
"What’s there to be ashamed of? As long as the house can accommodate you, it’ll be a good house,
just say it."
"That's right, we'll arrive on time."
Godfrey fidgeted and could not say anything. Lydia wanted to stand as the decisive one and put an end NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
to this matter, but it was easier said than done. So she really did not know what to say.
"Yvonne, your father is too shy to speak, it's better that you say it instead," Lionel turned to Yvonne and
said.
Yvonne subconsciously looked at Samuel. Only Samuel knew where exactly the house was, so hr was
the only one who could answer this question. 2
"There will be a car to pick you up, you'll eventually find out where it is," Samual said, then turned to
Yvonne, "Do you want to invite grandma as well?"
Lionel sneered while the other relatives shook their head in disdain. It was well known that
Grandmother Sue never went anywhere else. She would not give face even to a housewarming, unless
the new house was at Cloudridge Hill.
"Samuel, you've been in Sue family for three years, don't you know Grandma Sue well enough? She
only goes to Cloudridge Hill. Could you have bought a house there?" Lionel asked.
"Just because Grandma Sue visited your house in the past, doesn't mean she'll do the same this time."
"As a man who's married into the wife’s family, you're really getting bolder."
Lydia was about to get mad at Samuel. Everyone knew the fact about Grandmother Sue and he
wanted to embarrassed everyone by provoking them.
"Samuel, you talk too much, are you bored?" Lydia said.
"I just think it's necessary to inform Grandma, so that she won't be upset if we talk about this later,"
Samuel said.
"There's no need to inform, I'll decline your invitation o n Grandma's behalf." Lionel smiled.
Samuel spoke no more. It was Lionel who declined the invitation, Lionel would be held accountable if
anything happened.
That afternoon, when they left the Sue villa, Harvey called Samuel to the back yard. What happened
between the two was unknown, but Samuel left unharmed while Harvey’s face was darkened.
Time passed quickly and it was almost fifteenth of the month. Lydia and Godfrey got more and more
anxious. Initially they planned to rent a room to muddle through. This plan would obviously not work
after the Sue family’s intervention. They came to face the fact that renting was not an option, so they
had to settle it a t Samuel’s second-hand house. They could only accept what's to come. At worst,
maybe they would only be humiliated by Fred and the students.
