Claire North watched Raina North’s departing figure in disbelief and said, "Elias, Grandma, are you really going to let Raina take Baby away ?" The rightful source is novel•fire.net
Jasper Hawthorne couldn’t help but say, "What’s the alternative? Call Baby back and lock him up?"
"Call me Second Young Master," Jasper Hawthorne said mercilessly, "My name is not for you to call so casually."
"Jas... Second Young Master." When Claire North said these words, a strong sense of humiliation surged in her heart, but she suppressed it hard and put on an earnest face, "As a mother, I am just worried about Baby’s safety."
"What’s there to worry about?" Jasper Hawthorne said, showing no leniency, "In terms of identity, Raina is the current Valley Master of Ghost Doctor’s Vale, Ghost Doctor Nowhere. In terms of relationship, she is my brother’s wife, the Head Mistress of The Hawthorne Family..."
Before Jasper Hawthorne could finish, Claire North couldn’t help but shout loudly, "What kind of mistress is she? Elias has already signed the divorce agreement with her."
"As long as this divorce agreement has not taken effect, Raina is still my brother’s wife, my sister-in-law, the Head Mistress of The Hawthorne Family!" Jasper Hawthorne asserted resoundingly, "In that case, you are the real outsider, and if Baby really follows you to the North Family, we should be worried, considering that kind of intelligence can’t handle the responsibilities of The Hawthorne Family."
After speaking, Jasper Hawthorne didn’t forget to obediently consult Elias Hawthorne, "Brother, was I right just now?"
Elias Hawthorne felt gratified, "That’s right, you’ve improved."
"Improvement is necessary." Jasper Hawthorne was so pleased that his happiness was over the moon; if not for some deference, he could hardly restrain himself from running three laps.
Jasper Hawthorne’s long tirade just now paled in comparison to the few gentle words from Elias Hawthorne.
Claire North was immensely distressed, her eyes reddened as she shouted heartbreakingly, "Elias!"
Elias Hawthorne didn’t spare Claire North a glance, walking over to Old Mrs. Hawthorne, "Grandma, let me escort you back to rest."
"No need," Old Mrs. Hawthorne waved her hand, "With Aunt Rivers by my side, you needn’t worry. Go on with your business."
"Move along, stop dawdling here," Old Mrs. Hawthorne pushed Elias Hawthorne’s hand away, urging him impatiently to leave.
Elias Hawthorne, understanding the old lady’s intentions, instructed Aunt Rivers to take good care of her, and left in large strides.
Claire North pulled Bobby Lawrence away, quickly trying to catch up.
However, when she reached the doorway, Old Mrs. Hawthorne blocked her with a cane, "Stop right there!"
Claire North was caught off guard, nearly tripping, but she held back her anger, trying to maintain a gentle demeanor, "Grandma, why are you stopping me?"
"Why are you chasing after Elias?"
"Of course, there’s something I need to discuss."
Old Mrs. Hawthorne bluntly said, "What is there to discuss? I think you’re worried Elias is going to Raina!"
Claire North retorted, "Shouldn’t I be worried? With my sister’s reputation in such a bad state, right when my elder sister has just reunited with the eldest son, it’s really not the right time for Elias to meet her."
"That’s their matter as a couple, what does it have to do with you, an outsider? Also, wasn’t it you who insisted on taking care of Bobby just now? What are you doing now, pushing the child onto the ground?"
Claire North turned back to see Bobby Lawrence sitting on the ground, wiping tears, as a servant came over to pick him up, coaxing him softly.
Claire North put on a remorseful expression, "It’s my fault, I was so worried about Elias that I didn’t notice Bobby."
Old Mrs. Hawthorne was not buying it, "Elias Hawthorne is fully grown, what’s there to worry about! I think what you’re really worried about is the wealth and status Elias could bring you!"
