Chapter 210
Lennon paused for a moment and said, “If someone in this family can’t accept her, then I can also choose not to come back in the future.” After saying that, Lennon took Mariela’s hand and turned away, ignoring the calls from the Stark family behind him.
In the car,
Mariela sat in the passenger seat, looking worried.“Lenny, you argued with my family for me, and I’m afraid…”
‘Don’t be afraid, Marie, Lennon squeezed Mariela’s hand, “I’m here.”
“Will your grandmother hate me even more like this?”
“She deliberately tested your patience, I had to show my stance, otherwise she would escalate it next time.”
Mariela lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly, “It seems like your family didn’t like me.”
“No,” Lennon reassured, “Don’t overthink it. My parents both liked you, and so did my grandfather. As for my grandmother, she misunderstood you, but I will talk to her and clear things up.”
Mariela absentmindedly “ummed“.
Lennon gently pinched Mariela’s face and said, “Marie, what do you want to eat? I will take you to have something delicious.”
After the recent commotion, Mariela’s mood was a bit down, and she lost her appetite.
“I didn’t mind.”
Lennon drove her to an exclusive high–end restaurant and ordered a table full of dishes she loved.
Here, after Lennon left, the atmosphere at the Stark’s villa restaurant became somewhat solemn.
Royce sighed and rubbed his temples helplessly, saying, “Mom, why do you have a problem with Mariela, a young girl? Did she do something to upset you?
Rayne remained silent, pursing her lips beside.
When she first married into the Stark family, Bella also went through the same struggles.
Bella used to nag her daughter–in–law, and now she is using the same tactics to nag her granddaughter–in–law. She really knows how to make trouble.
Can’t we just get along peacefully?
She just didn’t understand. Mariela had an impeccable family background, matched Lenny in terms of social status, and was also beautiful and elegant. She was kind and polite, well–mannered, and yet Bella was still not satisfied. She even had to criticize Mariela’s appearance and attire. Bella sneered, “Did you see how Lenny just treated me? In all these years, when has he ever defied me? Today, he actually defied me for a woman. It must be that Mariela who instigated him.”
Rayne sneered in her heart. Ha, it’s obvious that you’re just looking for trouble. My son did a great job protecting his wife with such dominance. Royce said, “Mom, don’t have prejudice against Mariela. She is not that kind of person. She is a good girl. Please don’t trouble her anymore in the future,”
‘Did I make it difficult for her? You guys have no idea what she did to Lauryn a few days ago!”
