Twins - The Unforeseen Legacy of My Ex's Uncle-in-Law novel Chapter 216

Colton was nothing like Cormac; while Cormac was everyone's darling, Colton had eyes only for Drusilla. He'd share his stuff only with Drusilla. As for the rest? He couldn’t care less.

All eyes were usually on Colton, and now, by extension, on Drusilla.

Lilith frowned, irritated. Why did Colton treat Drusilla so favorably when he barely acknowledged her? "Aunt Drusilla, look how sweet Colton is to you! Kids are just so innocent and pure. Shame you were against them coming over at first!"

Drusilla, in her opinion, didn’t deserve Colton's kindness.

But Drusilla, unbothered by Lilith's disdain, gratefully accepted a piece of cake from Colton. "Thanks, Colton."

Colton glanced at Drusilla, a small smile playing on his lips, and sat down next to her, clinging close.

Lilith, witnessing this, felt her blood boil.

Why should Drusilla, of all people, win Colton's affection? It was outrageous!

Holding the piece of cake her son had given her, Drusilla smiled softly.

Blythe, observing quietly, commented to Drusilla, "Looks like Colton's really fond of you."

Drusilla chuckled, "Maybe because we've spent more time together."

Blythe then asked, "Enoch, when the kids come over next time, will Drusilla be looking after them?"

Enoch nodded, "Yes."

Lilith was left speechless, hurt by the blunt reminder of her unpopularity. She believed she was better for the children than Drusilla, always buying them gifts and eagerly awaiting their return. Why was her effort overlooked in favor of Drusilla?

Blythe interjected, "Let's leave it at that. The kids will stay with Drusilla, and we'll all be here to watch over. Let's not argue anymore."

It was important to keep the peace within the family.

Drusilla seized the moment, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of them."

Even without Blythe's reassurance, harming her own children was the last thing on her mind.

Lilith had no choice but to accept the decision, though she remained unconvinced of Drusilla's intentions. She was sure Drusilla was only using the children to secure her position in the family, and she was determined to unveil Drusilla's true, malicious nature eventually.
