Chapter 503: Chapter 503: Mrs. Li - The Wife of General Li (6)

"So you’re raising your voice at me now? And you think you’re in the right? Carolline Ruiz has only ever loved you, but look at you, playing about with all these other women with surnames like ’Miller’ and ’Feng’. How many flowers have you plucked along the way?" The elderly Lady Hawkins slapped her eldest grandson on the shoulder in her fury. It was absolutely disgraceful.

Just based on this, she felt her grandson isn’t good enough for Carolline Ruiz. While Carolline remained loyal to him alone, her grandson has dated several women. How is that fair on Carolline?

"...Grandmother, can we talk sensibly?" Bryan Hawkins looked at his grandmother with a mournful face. He indeed isn’t welcomed by everyone at home now. No wonder William always feels so smug.

William Hawkins, who was sitting holding Madelyn Lincoln, suppressed his laughter while feeding his wife an apple, "Grandmother, that’s because Bryan’s charm is simply irresistible."

A harsh glare shot towards William. Bryan stared at the gleeful man. William naturally didn’t dare to be too smug in front of Bryan and quickly withdrew his neck.

Just then, Bryan’s phone rang. Without uttering a second word, Lady Hawkins grabbed the phone. Seeing the name ’Phoebe’ on the screen irritated her even more.

Infuriated, she threw the phone at Bryan, "You claim there’s nothing between you two, yet she’s calling you at home? It says ’Phoebe’, doesn’t it?"

Her tone was so sour that Bryan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Phoebe Miller wouldn’t call at this time unless it was important, but his grandmother had hang up the phone.

He picked up the phone, walked onto the balcony and returned Phoebe’s call. Watching Bryan’s movements only annoyed Lady Hawkins further, "William, go spy on them. Check what they’re saying!"

Were they having a private conversation that couldn’t be heard by others? Carolline and the child were upstairs, yet they were so bold. This was exasperating.

"Grandmother, should we really be doing this? We all clearly know who Bryan is. If he genuinely had something going on with another woman, he wouldn’t be with Carolline, would he? After all, they’re getting married soon." William tried to defend Bryan.

"What do you know? In this day and age, besides being cautious about men, you have to be even more cautious about those women with fanciful ideas out there. I’m well aware of what you two, our Hawkins boys, are like. But I can’t figure out the women outside at all with my old age." Lady Hawkins took the opportunity to scold William as well.

William was also a worry. Didn’t he create a fuss with his ex-girlfriend when he was getting married?

On the other hand, her two beloved granddaughters-in-law were pure beings, with no emotional entanglements. As a grandmother, she naturally had to protect such dutiful grandchildren-in-law.

One had already given them a great-grandson, and the other was carrying twins. She would absolutely not allow these young women to be bullied. If they were ever slighted, she would not let her grandsons off the hook.

"Alright, alright, I’ll go check." William was a smart man. He knew he’d better appease his grandmother now or she’d dig up his past wrongdoings.

He was happily living his peaceful life and did not want any drama right now.

It was only after receiving a call from Selina Fleming and giving it considerable thought that Phoebe Miller decided to call Bryan Hawkins.

At the moment, she quietly returned to G City. She knew that her connection with Bryan was completely severed in this lifetime. Selina told her that Bryan and Carolline now had a son, who was already over five years old.

And to think she had deluded herself into believing that Bryan’s previous unwillingness to marry was because he still had lingering feelings for her. She had just been foolishly romantic.
