Chapter 1123
Hannah bit her lower lip and mumbled, "I understand.' "Go on." Heather waved dismissively. She
looked pale and feeble.
"Heather, are you okay?" Hannah asked worriedly.
"I'm alright. Remember what I said." Heather closed her eyes, not wanting to speak anymore.
Heather opened her eyes as Hannah quietly left the room. The room was empty as she called out,
"Chump!"
"Yes, Ms. Riggs." Chump quickly stepped forward.
"Send two of our most trusted men to follow her, and remember not to cause a scene." Heather had a
calm expression on her face, not betraying her emotions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Yes, I understand." Chump knew what she meant and left to get it done.
Chump had to stay by Heather's side as she continued to meditate. She needed someone she could
trust to be by her side in case of an accident, and Chump was the only one suitable for this. However,
she also needed others to be around Hannah, especially since she had other thoughts recently.
Heather needed to ensure nothing would go wrong.
As noon drew closer, most of the family elders arrived. Most of them were having tea and enjoying their
afternoon snacks. Although they were unaware of the purpose of the meeting, most of them showed up
because Margaret had made the invitation and mentioned that it was an important event.
All the family members were gathered in the main hall, which was crowded. However, the main guest
was not there yet. Ralph turned to see if Alexander had arrived and instructed the housekeeper to look
after their guests and keep bringing more tea and snacks.
As for Heather, he did not know if she would attend, but that was not important. After all, Alexander was
the main attraction.
After looking at the time, Ralph was about to call his nephew and ask if he was too afraid to show up
when one of the housekeepers came running toward him and said, "Mr. Alexander is here."
Alexander and Lily came into the main hall together. Some of the family members stood up as they
walked in. Alexander always had a strong presence, which made people around him respect him more.
Some of the elders had even stopped talking and looked toward the couple.
"It’s crowded today." Even though Lily knew this was a family meeting, she did not expect to see so
many people.
It reminded her of when she was a child in the Lodge family. After growing up and leaving her family,
she rarely saw such a huge family meeting.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlexander gently patted the back of her hand and whispered, "If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you
could go to one of the guestrooms to rest. I'll get you when we're done. I promise it won't be long."
"It's fine." Lily shook her head as she saw Ralph approaching them. She smiled and said, "I want to see
what he has up his sleeves."
"You're really the VIP for making such a late entrance." Ralph laughed.
He was obviously in a good mood as he thought of what would happen that evening. Even his eyes
were curved into a smile.
Alexander corrected him, "Uncle, you're wrong. I’m merely returning to my own home. How could I
even be counted as a guest."
"Sometimes, we just don't know who's the guest or the host," Ralph commented. "Since everyone's
here. Let's start."
