chapter 44

At this moment, the Smith residence was filled with laughter. Only Ronan and Evelyn seemed unhappy, while Jamie and his family were delighted.

After all the family’s most hated member, Lillian, had been kicked out of the family by Elijah. She was even stripped of her CEO role, and Elijah had let Lucas take over.

Plus, there was another piece of good news. Their daughter, Lyra, had returned from studying aboard. She even brought back her boyfriend, a member of Ravenview City’s four prestigious families, Taylor Reeves.

Although Taylor did not have a good reputation, he was the Reeves family’s only heir.

Elijah couldn’t stop smiling, either. It had been a long time since he was so happy.

In comparison, Ronan and Evelyn were utterly ignored by Elijah.

“Grandpa, I want to move out and live by myself,” Lyra held onto Elijah’s arm and whined.

“okay. I’ll go buy a house for you later,” Elijah agreed without a second thought.

As Elijah was utterly disappointed in Lillian, he liked Lyra more.

“No need. Since Lillian has been kicked out of the family, why don’t you give me her house?” Lyra suggested.

Lyra didn’t come up with this idea by chance. Instead, she had this thought after knowing Lillian had been kicked out of the family.

Lyra was Locas twin, so she was a bit younger than Lillian. However, Lyra had always been overshadowed by Lillian in everything since she was young, whether it was appearance or grades.

Plus, Elijah used to favor Lillian more back then.

This caused Lyra to hold a sense of hatred for Lillian.

After knowing the latter had been kicked out of the family, Lyra knew it was time to get her revenge She wanted to snatch everything away from Lillian and bring her down.

“Okay” Elijah nodded smilingly.

“Thank you, Grandpa.” Lyra was excited.

At this moment, a maid came and reported, “Mr. Smith, Mr. Miller is here”

“What?” Blood drained out of everyone’s face. They thought Andrew was here to teach them a lesson.

Elijah glared at Roman and Evelyn. “It’s all because of your daughter!”

Belinda hurriedly replied, “Dad, you don’t need to be too worried. The ones who caused trouble were Sebastian and Lillian. Now that you’ve already kicked them out of the family. they have nothing to do with the Smith family.”

“Mr. Miller never does things reasonably. Even if I’ve already kicked them out of the family, he might not let us off.” Elijah was worried.

At this moment, Lyra spoke up with a smile. “Grandpa, you don’t need to worry so much. Taylor is close with Mr. Miller. If he’s here, Mr. Miller will definitely respect him.”

“Mr. Reeves, you’re close with Mr. Miller? Elijah asked cautiously.

Taylor stood up straight and answered proudly, “That’s right. Although I’ve been studying abroad for the past few years, I used to eat and drink with Andrew, sometimes even going to the sauna together.

“We can be considered as old friends despite the age gap.”

“What a good son–in–law I have. You’re amazing! Unlike that humatic somebody found who only causes trouble” Belinda sneered at Ronan and Evelyn.

Ronan and Evelyn turned red in embarrassment, but they couldn’t retort in any way

“Okay. Let’s not drag on any longer and welcome Mr. Miller in.” Elijah quickly led some people to the door.

Andrew was standing obediently by the gate. If it were before, he would have rushed inside. However, he didn’t have the guts to do so now,

This was the family of the Supreme One’s wife. Thus, Andrew didn’t dare to offend them in any way.

Elijah and the others felt it was odd that Andrew was standing by the gate. However, they didn’t dwell on it and walked up to him hurriedly

“Welcome, Mr. Miller. Please forgive us for not welcoming you in earlier,” Elijah ushered.

Andrew quickly replied with a respectful smile, “You’re too kind. I apologize I have caused any inconvenience.”
