Avenger's coming back Chapter 67 False Greeting

"Thanks for your concern. I'm fine now." Lily replied with a faint smile, her eyes never averted from
Lucia.

She was so unusual today. She even came back to the old house to 'care about' her. Did she have an
ulterior motive?

"Ugh?" Lucia sighed and said, "I didn't have time to care about you when you and Claire got hurt last
time. I'm not considerate enough. Hope you don't mind it."

"I can understand. After all, she was seriously injured. It would be troublesome if she had sequela." Lily
emphasized on the word "seriously". A clever man could immediately understand what she meant.

Lucia seemed not to hear it or she pretended not. She pulled Lily's hand and sat down on the sofa next
to her.

She said gently, "I'm sorry that I didn't come to see you in time and didn't do my duty as an elder. Eden
told me that your mother went to see you..."

Oh, she finally understood. Lily's eyes were cold, but she didn't show it on her face. She didn't interrupt
her, just listening to her quietly.

"I want to invite her to have a meal and apologize to her. After all, I failed to take care of you. It's my
fault. I have to apologize to her."

See, what a clear and reasonable excuse! There was no way that she could refuse!

However, Lily just smiled lightly and said, "Aunt, it has nothing to do with you. You don't have to blame
yourself. It's my responsibility. I went out alone so late at night. If I had come back earlier, nothing
would have happened."



Hearing this, Lucia's eyes darkened. She held back her anger, but still pretended to be a kind mother.

"Lily, you know that you and your mother separated because of me. If she hadn't left the Qiao family,
you would have been taken good care of and nothing would have happened to you. To be fair, I should
personally apologize to her. Otherwise, I would feel guilty."

She didn't want to apologize, but she just want to know where her mother was!

Lily's eyes were as cold as ice. She lowered her head to avoid eye contact with Lucia. Meanwhile, the
smile on her face disappeared.

Did Lucia take her as a fool? She won't be fooled so easily.!

A moment later, Lily raised her head again, but she looked very embarrassed. "Auntie, please don't say
that. The more you say like this, the more I feel guilty."

She was sure that Lucia didn't know what had happened to her at all.

"Lily, don't tell me that you don't even give me a chance to apologize to your mother, will you?"

"No, aunt..."

"What's that?" Lucia was a little impatient and said in a bit aggressive tone, but she didn't realize that. "I
just want you to call your mother and make an appointment with her to have dinner. But you are not
willing to do that."

Lucia couldn't hold her temper in such a short time. The corners of Lily's mouth invisibly curved. But
she still looked embarrassed.

"How about this? Tell me where your mother is. I will come to apologize to her in person." Lucia
continued when she saw that Lily kept silent.



She thought was good!

Lily looked at her with an expression of embarrassment. "Aunt, it's really not like that. I..."

"Why are you here?" Joe interrupted Lily.

"Grandpa."

"Father."

Both of them were surprised, but Lucia was more blatant. She stood up directly.

Joe didn't like Lucia. At first, if it wasn't for the death of his wife, and let Eden recognize his ancestor, he
would not agree to Dillon and Tina divorce and let her enter Qiao family.

Joe frowned, looked at Lucia and directly asked her to leave, "Since Dillon is very busy in the company,
you can't always be idle. You can't let him worry about the family affairs, right?"

"Dad, something happened to Lily. I come here to see her." Lucia explained.

Joe glanced at her and said, "Lily is all right now."

Lucia's face darkened with anger. However, she couldn't lose her temper, so she had to control herself.

"I'm relieved to see Lily. I'm leaving now." Then she turned around and left. But at the moment she
turned around, her face immediately became ferocious.

Looking at her back, Lily smiled sarcastically.

"I am so worried." Joe grumbled, turned to look at Lily and asked with concern, "Lily, did she make
trouble for you?"



"No, she didn't." Lily shook her head and said, "Auntie comes to see me. She won't embarrass me."

Joe snorted and said, "I hope she really comes here to see you."

Lily didn't say anything about it. She couldn't say anything bad about Lucia in front of Joe. Otherwise,
others would gossip that she was trying to sow dissension among them.

After coming out of the old house, Lucia looked terrible. When she came to the living room of the Qiao
family, she directly threw her handbag onto the sofa.

"Jane, give me a glass of water." Sitting on the sofa, she shouted in an unfriendly tone.

"Yes, madam." Then she turned around and got her a glass of water.

At this moment, Claire went downstairs, her eyes red and swollen. She came down after she heard
Lucia's voice.

"Mom, where have you been? I didn't see you when I came back."

Lucia was not in a good mood, so she turned to look at her daughter unhappily. When she saw her
daughter's appearance, she was stunned. "What's wrong? Your eyes are swollen from crying."

"It's all Lily's fault. That bitch. All the people in the school are saying that I'm the mistress's daughter.
They all look at me with disdain. Almost nobody comes to stay with me."

Claire grumbled, pursing her lips. She walked towards Lucia and sat down next to her, stretching out
her hands to hold her arm.

"It's her again!" Lucia clenched her teeth. She had been so humbled when she went to see her today.
She failed to know anything, but on the contrary, she made Joe angry!



"I hate her. What's more, my brother is always on her side. If I say something to her, my brother will
scold me ten times. I'm almost going to doubt that she was born byte same mother with my brother."

"Don't say that again!" The moment her words were finished, Lucia's face darkened and looked at her
sternly.

"Mom..." Claire was scared to death. She had never seen her mother scold her so harshly before.
"What... What's wrong with you?"

Lucia realized that she had overreacted, so her expression softened a lot. "Don't say that again. Eden
is your brother. Others will misunderstand you if you say so."

"Okay." Claire nodded subconsciously and looked at Lucia strangely.

At this time, Jane walked over, put the glass with water on the table in front of Lucia and left.

Lucia looked obviously absent-minded. She picked up her glass and took a sip of water, while her mind
was in a whirl and her hand was even shaking, but she didn't notice that.

Claire, who had been very angry and wanted to complain to her, totally dispelled the idea at the sight of
her appearance. Today, her mother looked very strange.

Lucia put down the cup and reached out her hand to rub her forehead. Eden was getting more and
more annoying now. Even when he was in favor of Lily, he didn't listen to her, his mother.

Is it…

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Claire asked with concern.

"Nothing." Lucia glared at her and casually asked, "Where is Eden?"



"He's reading in the study."

"Yes." Lucia stood up and walked upstairs, saying, "I'm a little tired. I'm going upstairs to have a rest.
Don't forget to call me when your father comes back."

"Okay."

Looking at her back, Claire blinked and muttered in a low voice, "Mom is so strange today."

In the evening, when Dillon came back, he saw there were only Eden and Claire in the living room. The
dinner was ready.

"Where's your Mommy?" He changed his shoes in the doorway, walked to the living room, put his
briefcase on the sofa, and asked.

"She's not feeling well. She's resting upstairs. I'll wake her up." Then, she stood up and went upstairs.

Confused, he frowned. He looked at his son and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Eden shook his head and replied, "I don't know."

Seeing him like this, Dillon was a little dissatisfied. "Eden, you are not a child anymore. You should
know how to care about others. Your mother is not feeling well, but you, as a son, didn't know it at all."

"Well, I see, father." Eden replied flatly, his face expressionless.

When Lucia went downstairs, she looked very energetic, not tired at all.

On the table, Dillon looked at her and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, I had a rest." Lucia replied.



"Take care of yourself. I'm very busy with the business in the company these days, so I may not be able
to take care of you."

Lucia frowned as soon as she heard his words. Joe's words were still echoing in her ears today, and
she was a little unhappy. She asked, "What is more important? Company's affairs or your family?"

On hearing this, Dillon frowned and said, "Lucia, I know that I may ignore you these days. But now the
company's profit is going down in a special period. If I don't work hard, I can't give father a good
explanation. You know, he has always been dissatisfied with you. I'm afraid that at that time he will
target at you. He said that I don't even care about the company because you."

Lucia looked at him and said nothing. She thought that his words were reasonable and felt much better.
At least, it proved that he was thinking for her.

"Have you met Tina before?" She asked.

Dillon was stunned and his face looked a little strange.
