Chapter 42: Chapter 45 Mr. Lu Helps Her Establish Authority
Translator: 549690339
Mrs. Lucas’s dignity?
Lily Gray didn’t quite understand what Aidan Lucas meant, but he didn’t explain further. Instead, he calmly moved away from her and stood by the bedside again.
Luckily, Lily Gray’s vision wasn’t too good to witness this awkward scene.
Aidan Lucas knew this, however, when he saw the woman sitting on the bed wrapped in a blanket, staring blankly at him with her peach blossom eyes. Suppressing his romantic thoughts, he calmly told her, “I’m having someone bring fresh clothes in for you. Change into them and come out, 1’11 wait for you outside the door.”
Lily Gray had no idea that after Aidan Lucas had left, he stood alone in the corridor for a while before ordering the servant to bring her new clothes. Indeed, she was feeling a bit hungry, as she hadn’t eaten much all day.
So, after the servant brought in the new clothes, she quickly got herself ready. When she went out, Aidan Lucas was already standing in the corridor outside the door, waiting for her with an unchanging expression.
Seeing her emerge, he walked towards her.
His tall figure casted a small shadow over her. Aidan Lucas’s 190 cm height made her, who was just over 160 cm, look exceptionally petite beside him. He suddenly stretched out a palm, placing it in front of her, “Come, Mrs. Lucas.”
Lily Gray looked up at him, somewhat puzzled. When they left the Civil Affairs Bureau, he seemed cold and distant, but why did it seem like he was behaving differently now?
However, Lily Gray did not voice her doubts.
She gently put her hand in his palm. The warmth of his hand, together with the soothing sensation, enveloped her.
Aidan Lucas led her by the hand, as if cherishing the most treasured jewel, and took her to the dining room.
As soon as Lily Gray entered the dining room, she was taken aback by the servants standing in four rows.
“Why did you summon so many people here? Is there something going on?” Lily Gray quietly asked him.
The Gray family also had servants, but together with the butler, there were only five people.
Unlike here, even in this Lucas manor, there were four full rows of servants, easily around thirty in total.
“You’ll find out soon enough.” Aidan Lucas did not reveal the answer, but just held her hand and walked to the dining table.
He politely and considerately pulled out a chair for Lily Gray in front of all these servants.
The servants were summoned on short notice by Ellie and didn’t know what was happening.
Originally, everyone was in a state of unease. Seeing Aidan Lucas personally pulling out a chair for Lily Gray shocked them even more.
When had they ever seen Mr. Lucas act this way, serving a woman with such gentle manners!
Someone like Mr. Lucas, who hardly even glanced at other women, how could he exhibit such intricate attentiveness!
The servants of the Lucas family had always been haughty and arrogant.
It couldn’t be helped, the position of the Lucas household in A City and all of Eastonia was extraordinary.
Because of this, these servants developed a habit of being high and mighty.
Initially, they thought that Lily Gray was just a plaything brought back by Mr. Lucas and didn’t think much of her. Now, the same servants began to reassess Lily Gray’s identity and status.
However, Lily Gray had no idea about any of this. She just sat in place, waiting for Aidan Lucas to speak.
Aidan Lucas lazily and casually seated himself next to her.
He lifted his dark eyes, sweeping over the crowd standing on the other side of the table, all of them holding their breath.
“Listen closely.” His cold and ruthless voice echoed in the dining room.
“This lady is my wife, Aidan Lucas’s wife, and the future mistress of this mansion. From today onwards, whatever Mrs. Lucas says, is as if 1, Aidan Lucas, am saying it. If anyone dares to slight Mrs. Lucas in the future…you’d better remember, don’t blame me, Aidan Lucas, for not warning you in advance..”
