Chapter 924


    Lily frowned slightly when Margaret brought up the subject of her parents'' untimely deaths on their first


    meeting, as it was a thorn in her heart.


    "All I know is that respect goes both ways.I have no idea who the two of you are, yet you barge in here,


    expecting me to know how to address you."


    "Well, didn''t we tell you who we are already?!" Celine snapped.


    "Why haven''t you greeted us?"


    "Yes, you did introduce yourself, but how would I know if it''s true? “


    "You-"


    Celine felt that Lily was doing it on purpose, and she was fighting the urge to go up to Lily and p her


    in the face.


    Margaret raised her hand and said, "Enough.What''s the point of ying games? You already know if


    I''m telling the truth about being Alex''s grandma.I also know who you are.Today, I''m not here to y


    along with your games.There''s one thing I''d like to tell you.If you want to be a part of the Russell family,


    you''d have to go through me.Alex''s approval is nothing inparison to mine."


    Hearing this, Lily smiled lightly.


    When Margaret saw that Lily was still unmoved and was even smiling, she narrowed her eyes.


    "Why are you smiling? Do you not believe me?"


    "No, I''m smiling because it seems like you''ve made a mistake.I have no intentions of being a part of the


    Russell family."


    "You don''t want to marry Alex?" Margaret asked with some doubts.


    "Wanting to marry Alexander has nothing to do with wanting to be a part of the Russell family.If I marry


    him, I''m just marrying him.I don''t care if I''m epted into the Russell family, and as for your


    approval..."


    Lily trailed off and let out augh.


    "I''m sorry.I''m really sorry, but I really couldn''t care less.After all, I''m not marrying you."


    The entire room fell silent.


    Celine was so shocked that this woman was talking to her mother in this way that she was speechless.


    Back then, Celine’s mother-inw was also difficult, but with the power of the Russell family behind her,

    her mother-inw had little to say.


    However, for someone like Lily to say that she wasn''t trying to marry Margaret?! That wasn''t the point


    of this! Sure enough, Margaret''s face turned ugly and was white with fury.


    "You''re daring, aren''t you? Do you really think I can''t do anything about you? Do you think you''re


    invincible just because my grandson is backing you up?"


    "This is where you''re wrong.I can back myself up.I don''t need anyone to be my backbone, nor do I


    need anyone to tell me what to do.Me being with Alexander is our choice, and I won''t let anyone make


    that decision for me."


    ''This woman is very eloquent!'' Margaret thought to herself.


    She was starting to feel that Lily wasn''t as easy to deal with as she had imagined.


    Rolling her eyes, Margaret said, "You won''t get what you want."


    Lily didn''t understand and raised an eyebrow quizzically without saying a word.Her confusion slowly


    turned into hesitation as the old womanughed.


    "At this age, do you still think I don''t know what you''re up to? I know what you want.I''m not going to


    send you away with arge sum of money.You''re smart.You know how much you''d get from tagging


    along with Alexander.However..."


    She paused, and her lips curled into a proud smile.


    "You have no idea about our family rules.Even if you married Alexander, you wouldn''t get a single cent


    of our family property.In the future, if you give birth to a child, only the child will be entitled to our


    property.You''re just a tool to carry on our family bloodline."
