Chapter 51 This Pilf Is Amazing
Draxton Lockwood supported Isabella Thompson and comforted her, “It’s okay. You’ll get used to it.”
Isabella was lost for words.
Isabella looked at Ricky with her mouth agape. If not for the fact that she could recognize Ricky from his
demeanor, she would have almost recognized Ricky as Betty.
After all, they were twins. They hadn’t grown up yet, so Ricky still looked similar to Betty when he was
dressed up.
“Wow!”
Roger Lockwood let out a soft cry and looked at the child with sympathy.
Wilson Lockwood said, “Dad, Mom, don’t you feel guilty for dressing the boy up as a doll?”
Sir Graham Lockwood immediately shot him a sharp glare. He exclaimed, “Why would I be? Then what
about you? Don’t you feel guilty for escaping from your responsibilities? What does dressing up our
great-grandson have anything to do with you? Why don’t you get your son to get us another great-
grandchild if you’re that capable?”
Wilson was speechless.
Macpherson Lockwood patted his shoulder sympathetically. “Second Brother, be smart and don’t
provoke the old man. Can’t you see that he’s in high spirits now?”
It was a heinous crime to disturb the two elders who were busy playing with their great-grandson.
Ricky pursed his lips tightly and blushed. His big clear eyes flashed with a hint of shame and anger.
There was a lipstick mark on the left side of his small face.
How tragic.
Isabella’s heart ached a little. She could not help but tug at Draxton’s sleeve. “Will grandma and grandpa
dress their granddaughter up as a boy seeing how they dressed up Ricky as a girl?”
Draxton shook his head. “No, grandpa and grandma like girls. In our family, girls are more popular than
boys. Little children are more popular than older children. The two elders adore Ricky because he is at
that age. Look at those few. They were treated like this when they were young. Olivia and Yale must
have gone through the same thing.”
Isabella looked at the younger generation sympathetically, who were all pitying Ricky.
Roger even muttered, “This little baby is really our successor!”
Isabella did not know what to say.
What successor?
Isabella could already imagine how Betty would be dressed up if the two elders saw her.
However, with Betty’s personality, it was still uncertain who would suffer when the time came.
Isabella shuddered at the thought of the two elders being “tormented” by Betty.
Isabella was somewhat amazed.
Then she suddenly thought of something. Isabella tugged Draxton’s sleeve and whispered, “Did grandpa
and grandma dress you up when you were young?”
Draxton fell silent.
He suddenly froze.
Jeanne Lockwood happened to hear her say that. She let out a smile and said, “Of course, Bella. I even
took a photo of him. The photo is with me. I’ll show it to you when I have the chance.”
She was simply a master at exposing her son’s dark past.
Jeanne continued, “Ricky looks just like Draxton when he was dressed up as a doll!”
The two elders looked at everyone proudly and said, “This is Ricky, our great-grandson. Don’t scare the
child, all of you! Line up here and give my great-grandson a welcome gift!”
Everyone was speechless.
It was like they were worthless, and the only treasure here was the child.
Shepard Lockwood said, “Grandma, you’ve had a change of heart. Have you forgotten the beautiful
memories of dressing us twins up?”
Madame Emma Lockwood glanced at him loftily. “Of course, I remember. But you’re not cute anymore
once you grow up!” she said disdainfully.
They became so naughty after they grew up.
That was a clean hit.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShepard clutched his chest and fished out the gift he had prepared.
Philip finally got to touch his grandson’s hand when giving him the gift, and a bright smile appeared on
his face. When Sir Graham Lockwood was not paying attention, Philip tried to snatch his grandson away
to hug him, but Madame Emma Lockwood saw through his intention. She glared at Philip, and he
resentfully retracted his hand.
Isabella watched as everyone gave Ricky a greeting gift while Ricky obediently greeted them.
After a while, everyone finally arrived at the dining table.
During the entire time, Isabella could not even get close to Ricky..
Isabella was worried that Ricky might just become the two elder’s toys in the future.
Draxton noticed that Isabella kept glancing at Ricky and comforted her in a low voice, “Don’t worry,
grandpa and grandma will teach Ricky well.”
Isabella nodded and asked, “If there’s a girl as old as Ricky, will the two elders be elated?”
“Of course.” Draxton smiled. Then, he whispered into Isabella’s ear, “Why don’t we give birth to a girl
now? Look, our family has given birth to twins before. We might even be able to give birth to a pair of
twins!”
Isabella was speechless.
There was no need. They already had one.
However, Isabella did not know how to tell him about Betty’s existence.
Moreover, Betty’s personality was not as simple as Ricky’s.
Draxton saw Isabella’s conflicted expression and thought that she was embarrassed. He stopped teasing
her and picked up a piece of fish for her. He coaxed, “Eat first.”
“Great-grandma, I’m full.”
When the meal was almost over, Ricky’s childish voice sounded.
Madame Emma Lockwood put down her chopsticks and stretched out her hand. “Are you full? Oh, then
let’s not eat. Let grandma feel your stomach and see if you’re full.”
Madame Emma Lockwood took action as she spoke.
Ricky’s face blushed, and tears welled up in his eyes. Then he turned to look at his mother for help.
Isabella got her phone and took a photo of Ricky. She comforted him, “Ricky, don’t be shy. Great-
grandma is just concerned about you.”
Ricky was dumbstruck.
“Mom, how could you do this to me?” he thought.
Isabella lowered her head and sent the photo to Betty.
Meanwhile, Betty was having fun with poisonous plants, insects, and snakes at the Lotus Village. She
took out her phone when she heard it ring and was met with a photo of Ricky. If she did,t know better,
she would have thought that that was herself.
Her eyes widened as she stared at the photo on her phone for some time. Then, she guffawed while
holding her stomach.
Those poisonous bugs and snakes were so frightened that they curled up into a ball and trembled. Had
the little demoness gone crazy again?
Betty replied, “Mom, so am I going to have a sister?”
Isabella smiled and replied, “We have arrived at Dad’s house. Dad’s family likes Ricky. Does Betty want
to come?”
Betty fell silent.
She was more vengeful.
She was also petty.
She would not go back so easily.
Bella knew that this child would not agree easily when she heard Betty remain silent.
She put down her phone and looked at the warm and harmonious sight.
Even ordinary families did not have such an atmosphere, let alone a big family like the Lockwood family.
Isabella could not help but sigh.
She glanced at Draxton and thought that this man was good at everything. He was elegant, his family
was his strong backing, and most importantly, his family was united.
Isabella’s lips curled up slightly. Ricky and Betty would be contented living in such a family from now on.
After dinner, the two elders led Ricky to the garden for a walk while Isabella and the others sat in the
living room and chatted.
Macpherson was very interested in Isabella’s pill. He asked, “Bella, are you really a traditional medicine
practitioner?”
Isabella replied, “Yes.”
“Do you traditional medicine practitioners require a lot of medicinal herbs?”
Isabella nodded. “Yes, we do.”
Macpherson slapped his thigh. “Third Uncle has an idea. How about Third Uncle provide you with the
medical herbs you need in the future? What do you think?”
No one said anything.
Planting vegetables was no longer enough for this person. Was he going to start planting medicinal
herbs?
Isabella blinked in surprise and said, “Sure, but master and I have many requirements for the medicinal
herbs we use. Moreover, you have to have the professional knowledge to plant the medicinal herbs well.”
Macpherson patted his chest and said, “That’s easy. I don’t have any other skills, but I like to study the
cultivation of plants and crops. Just look at my field of vegetables. You’d think it’s done by a pro. I even
specially set up a vegetable laboratory…”
This piqued Isabella’s interest. She said, “Alright, I have some books on medicinal herbs cultivation. I’ll
get master to send them over. When the time comes, Third Uncle can refer to those books. After Third
Uncle plants the medicinal herbs, we’ll set up a medicinal herb laboratory.”
She and Grandmaster also had an underground laboratory at Lotus Village. However, if she left the job
to the Lockwood family, she believed that they would run the laboratory as well as the one in Lotus
Village or maybe even better.
Then Ricky, Betty, and her could have some fun.
Wilson’s eyes immediately lit up. He seemed to have found a soulmate and said excitedly, “Let’s go,
Bella. Let’s go and choose the land now. I happen to have a few pieces of land that I planned to use for
farming, but now, I can use them to use for medicinal herbs. Tell me the requirements for the land used
to plant medicinal herbs and see if any of those are suitable.”
The people looking at the trio were speechless.
“Why don’t I see Second Aunt and Kevin?”
Olivia realized that they were gone.
“That’s right. Second Aunt loves to join in the fun. Why isn’t she here now?” Yale was also puzzled.
Ava was actually in the toilet upstairs. She was sitting on the toilet seat, and her face scrunched up in
pain. Her stomach hurt so much that she couldn’t even get up.
An unpleasant smell wafted over. Her face was ashen. The smell was so bad that she didn’t think it
would come from her.
She was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat. She wiped her face with a tissue and her
eyes widened. What was this? When did her face get so dirty?
She wiped it again. It was still the same.
Ava’s vision darkened. She did not understand what was going on.
At this moment, she saw a layer of gray stains on her limbs.
Ava was dumbstruck.
“Ah-what’s happening to me?”
The feisty lady squatted on the toilet and started crying.
Kevin’s condition was not much better. He was in another toilet. He sat on the toilet seat, enduring the
numbing feeling on his right calf. It felt like ten thousand ants crawling inside him, but he could not curb
the itchiness. It was extremely uncomfortable.
Macpherson led Isabella to Sir Graham Lockwood’s study to look for books. When they arrived at the
third floor, they happened to hear Ava’s cries.
Macpherson urged, “Wilson! Your wife’s crying! Come take a look at her!”
Without thinking, Macpherson shouted for Wilson to come.
Isabella knew what was wrong with Ava. After taking that medicine, she would have experienced some
effects.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilson rushed upstairs soon after Macpherson called for him.
However, Ava sobbed loudly, saying, “No! Tell him to go away!”
She did not want her husband to see her in such a sorry, smelly state.
Her cries continued.
Then she cried even louder.
Wilson had already come into the room by then. However, the bathroom was locked. He was leaning
against the door and knocking anxiously.
“Honey, what’s wrong? What’s wrong?”
In the other room, Kevin was also suffering. He said weakly, “What about me…”
Ava’s cries were so loud that no one could hear Kevin.
The more Wilson knocked on the bathroom door, the louder ava’s cries were. She was expelling the
foreign materials from her body, and at the same time, crying and asking Wilson to leave.
Isabella saw that Wilson was about to pry open the door and guessed that Second Aunt probably did not
want others to see her sorry state, so she went up to persuade him. “Second Uncle, don’t worry. Second
Aunt is fine.”
“She’s crying and you say she’s fine?” Wilson was very concerned.
The rest of the Lockwood family was attracted by the commotion.
Ava could hear that the others had come. This was not what she wanted to happen. She became so
nervous and bothered that she experienced another wave of pain coming from her stomach. Then there
was a foul smell.
But then, she felt relieved all of a sudden. It was as if she had ascended to heaven.
She kept flushing the toilet, but the smell did not dissipate.
When the pain in her stomach finally subsided, she stood up with a relieved expression and shouted at
the door, “Wilson, stop banging on the door! I’m fine. I’m going to take a shower first.”
Wilson and the others figured that she was fine when they heard her say that, and they heaved a sigh of
relief.
They were still confused, however.
Isabella took the chance to say, “Second Aunt took the medicine I gave her previously. I think that was
the effect of the medicine, but it should be over now. Hm… Second Uncle, why don’t you go and take a
look at Kevin?”
Wilson was stunned. Then he quickly made his way to Kevin’s room while the others followed behind him
nosily.
Kevin did not lock the door. Everyone could smell a stench the moment the door was opened, and they
fled hurriedly.
Wilson was affected the most since he was in front of the others.
“What are you doing, you punk?”
Kevin questioned if Wilson was his father. He had just experienced unbearable pain and was relishing
this moment of relief, but the first thing his father said was this.
Kevin pulled up his pants and closed the door with a bang. He shouted, “I’m fine. Dad, don’t come in!”
Then, there was the sound of water flowing.
Kevin also went to take a shower.
“Did you see that? Kevin’s face was quite dirty…”
Yale was the one who pointed that out.
“Sister-in-law, does your pill have the effect of expelling impurities from the body?”
Yale seemed excited to know.
Isabella could not help but giggle. “Not necessarily. However, it can detoxify the body. It is normal for
people who take it for the first time to experience this. It won’t feel too good the first time, but you only
need to take it once because it won’t be effective after that since your body has reached its optimum
state.”
Without another word, Yale turned around and ran downstairs. She was then seen holding the bottle of
pills with her while she ran to her room.
Isabella reminded her, “You’ve just eaten. It’s better to take that medicine when you’re on an empty
stomach at night.”
Yale said, “No, I can’t wait a moment longer!”
Olivia followed suit and hurried downstairs to get her bottle of pills.
