Twins - The Unforeseen Legacy of My Ex's Uncle-in-Law novel Chapter 43

Lilith was lounging on the couch, with Harlan by her side, peeling an apple for her. They looked the picture of marital bliss.

Drusilla frowned at the sight.

Colton was still nursing his injuries, and here was Harlan, cozying up to his darling wife!

Lilith looked up and saw Drusilla enter. "Dr. Lawson."

Drusilla responded, "Hi, I'm going to check on Mr. Taylor."

She was about to head upstairs; she was running late for Enoch's acupuncture session!

Lilith said, "I have something I need to ask you."

Drusilla turned back to look at her. By the look in her eyes, it was about the incident at the diner.

"Is it about what happened at the diner?"

"Yes, come sit," Lilith gestured to the sofa beside her.

Drusilla walked over.

Blythe, sitting nearby, perked up at the mention of the diner. "What's this about?"

The air was charged with a certain seriousness.

Lilith's gaze was icy; she seemed to be on the verge of anger, maintaining politeness only for the sake of her image. She asked Drusilla, "Did you hit my husband?"

Drusilla understood the protective tone in her voice. Love meant shielding your beloved from harm.

She observed Lilith's rigid expression, sensing trouble brewing.

In the Taylor household, Lilith was everyone's darling, pampered by all. And Drusilla? She was just an employee, mistaken by Wendell for Odette. She was nothing special. As long as Lilith was happy, Drusilla could be dismissed at any time!

Thinking she could marry Enoch? Ridiculous!

Drusilla, facing Lilith's assertiveness, challenged, "What if I refuse to apologize?"

Lilith pressed her lips together. "Then I'm sorry, but you'll have to leave. Harlan is my husband, and I love him. I won't let anyone bully him. Not even you."

Initially, Lilith had a good impression of Drusilla, given how much Wendell adored her. However, without an apology, she couldn't forgive her.

Drusilla looked at Lilith. "Do you really know what kind of man you have by your side?"

Harlan, fearing Drusilla might reveal too much, quickly interjected, "Dr. Lawson, spare us your attempts to sow discord. My relationship with Lilith is unshakeable. She won't believe your baseless accusations!"
