BXBX NOVEL Chapter 159 - 162: Suddenly Missing Him So Much
“Hmph, you unfilial brat, you actually have the nerve to show up!?” Madam Gray’s face soured instantly when she spotted Lily Gray.
“Everyone, look here! This is… this is Lily Gray, the unfilial granddaughter of the Gray family. For a bit of family property, she even took her own grandmother and her own aunt to court. Dear reporters, please make sure to report this accurately, expose her unfilial behavior to the public!”
As soon as Madam Gray finished, a swarm of reporters surged forward, flash bulbs flashing, cameras thrusting in Lily Gray’s face.
“Miss Gray, do you think your actions of suing your own grandmother and aunt are inappropriate? Aren’t you afraid of public censure by doing this?”
“Miss Gray, rumors about your indiscretions in private life have been circulating. You’ve just been abandoned by Mr. Lucas, and now you turn against your own family over property disputes. Miss Gray, in just a few months, you’re already alienated from everyone. Can you tell us how you’re feeling now?”
Most of these reporters had taken money from the Gray family and their incisive and harsh questions were clearly intended to target Lily Gray.
Knowing that Lily Gray was pregnant, Attorney Fenton knew she definitely shouldn’t be enduring this kind of interview here. He quickly signaled his assistant to shield off the reporters, while he led Lily Gray towards the inside of the courthouse.
However, there were only three of them in total. Even though Mr. Fenton is a famous top-notch lawyer in A City, he couldn’t fight off the pushing and shoving by these reporters.
“Mrs. Lucas, be careful.” Mr. Fenton struggled to shield Lily Gray behind him.
With Lily now backed into a corner, she couldn’t help but feel regret.
She had underestimated the situation, thinking that coming to court would merely mean confronting the Gray family. She didn’t anticipate that they would be so ruthless as to manipulate public opinion as well.
Cornered by a crowd of reporters, Lily Gray could only protect her stomach.
She wasn’t scared of the reporters’ sharp questions, but she was afraid that in the mob, she would inadvertently harm the baby in her belly.
The crowd was so dense that the air itself seemed to thin out. Coupled with the tense atmosphere, Lily Gray found her breathing increasingly difficult, and a sense of suffocation was more and more apparent.
She leaned helplessly against the wall, suddenly yearning to see Ethan Wilson.
Just last night, there were rumors that he was with another woman, but when facing this crisis, the first person that came to her mind was still him.
If only he was here…
Just when they were about to be completely surrounded by the reporters, a horn sounded from outside the courthouse.
Then, the doors of the courthouse opened, and five black luxury cars drove in, stopping directly at the steps of the courthouse entrance.
When Mr.Fenton saw the leading black Bentley, he let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately that man was here, otherwise if Mrs. Lucas got injured, he wouldn’t know how to apologize.
The reporters have sharp instincts. As soon as they saw the five incoming luxury cars, they immediately circled around, ignoring Lily Gray.
It’s a joke; this is a courthouse, everyone has to park outside according to the rules.
Only these five luxury cars could enter unobstructed through the main gate; the identity and status of the person they were bringing was definitely not simple.
The reporters pointed their cameras at the leading luxury car, not willing to miss any shots.
Lily Gray was leaning against the corner, watching that familiar black Bentley. Her heart, which had been in her throat the whole time, finally relaxed.
Feeling a surge of emotion, her eyes reddened, and a sour sensation started tugging at her nostrils.
She didn’t expect that Ethan Wilson would actually come.
