His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 631

Chapter 631

“I know what’s the number,” Alexander came up from behind Lily and held her hand. Then he turned to Edward. “You can go now.”

Edward nodded and left, not forgetting to close the door behind him.

“Seriously? You’re jealous because of this? I was just trying to help Olivia!” Lily waved her phone in front of Alexander to remind him.

“Of course, I know that!” Alexander pinched her nose lightly and pulled her to sit next to him. “So, what did Justin say?”

“I think he was worried about something. He didn’t say much, but I’m sure he knows something. I just don’t know why he would allow them to do as they please,” Lily elaborated.

Alexander thought for a few seconds before asking, “You’re saying he has given up his position as the head of the family?”

“I’m assuming he did it to prevent the family from getting into a feud. However, judging from the current situation, I don’t think that’s working.” Lily had never expected this many problems to arise immediately after her grandfather’s death.

Most of the Lodge family’s elders were here, and they caused a huge commotion at the funeral. Lily was genuinely upset about how the situation had turned out.

“On the surface, it seems like the elders are using their authority and isolating you and Justin. Am I right?” Alexander questioned.

Lily nodded solemnly. “I never expected Henry to cause such a huge problem to the family.”

On the other hand, Alexander just shook his head in disagreement. “I don’t think so. Just Henry alone would not be able to stir up such a huge commotion. It’s all because people are supporting him. Besides, the only thing that could cause such a huge commotion was their personal interests.”

Lily agreed with everything Alexander had said. She also speculated that the elders united because of their intertwined personal interests.

“I thought with their growing age, their appetite would be less ambitious, and they would be content with their share of profits from the family,” Lily sighed in disappointment.

Alexander extended his index finger and lightly tapped Lily’s forehead before continuing, Justin didn’t give them the rights to the company, did he? Giving up his power as the family head isn’t as simple as handing over a few keys and some documents.

“Being the family head, especially to a prestigious family such as the Lodge family, isn’t as simple as you think. As you said, Justin has held this position for a few years. Don’t you think he has already built up some of his own connections and ways to handle conflicts that arise?”

Lily felt enlightened, “I’m such a fool! Why didn’t I think of that!‘

“You’re not a fool. You’re too focused on your work to care about the corporate politics and dramas around you. Honestly, I’d prefer if you don’t know anything about these issues if it’s possible. I would never want you to get caught up in something like this,” Alexander clarified. as he gently stroked his wife’s hair.

He told her lovingly, “I should be the one dealing with such dirty matters.”

“I can’t always be hiding behind you either. There are some things I must face on my own, Lily concluded after some thought. She sat up straight and looked into her husband’s eyes. Considering how they are, I don’t think they will try to search for the real culprit who killed. my grandfather. They’ll probably try to pin this on either Justin or me within these three. days.”
