Chapter 1049: Chapter 1052: Her Relationship with Larry Scott (2) Chapter 1049: Chapter 1052: Her Relationship with Larry Scott (2) “Okay,” Larry Scott nodded without hesitation.
Without showing any concern for the rest of the Scott family, he then proceeded towards the study room with Lily.
Larry's reaction to the woman's arrival didn't betray any surprise or guilt.
Even further, he showed no objections to her words, but unusually compliant.
Such behavior from Larry left the other members of the Scott family staring in astonishment.
Since when had the stubborn, opinionated Larry Scott, Commander, who disliked taking advice from others, become so easy to talk to?
“Stop right there!” Mason Scott barked, halting Larry and Lily as they were about to leave.
“Larry, this woman comes knocking and stirring up trouble in the middle of the night, and now you don't even give us an explanation before taking her back to your room. What do you take our Scott family for!?”
“I'm telling you… even if you are a Commander, and even if your military rank is distinguished, you're still my son, Mason Scott's son. If your daughter-in-law can't control you, I, as your father, absolutely must!”
“I can't discipline you for your actions outside, but if you dare bring this vixen into our Scott family tonight, be careful I don't report you to your Grandpa!”
Normally, Mason would only pose as a father, never daring to scold Larry loudly like this.
But now, he was completely misled by Wendy Jenkins's words earlier, and firmly believed that Lily was Larry's mistress.
What Mr. Scott cared most about was a person's morality.
Mason believed that having caught his son's weakness, this rare opportunity to have Mr. Scott look down on Larry was not to be missed.
“Vixen?”
Upon hearing Mason's words, Larry finally stopped in his tracks.
He turned around, tilting his head towards Mason, his cold gaze carrying a heavy dusk.
“Who did you just say is a vixen?”
“I… I said this woman is a vixen. What about it, are you going to punish me for that?”
Mason's spine chilled under Larry's icy stare.
But recalling his own identity, and considering there were others watching, he forced his courage, even if inwardly anxious.
Besides, Mason believed he occupied the moral high ground and, after a brief moment of cowardice, he bolstered his courage and spoke out loudly.
“Larry, am I wrong? Even if you are a Commander, you are still a member of the Scott family. You not only have to abide by military regulations, but also family rules! Your daughter-in-law might be too soft to manage your reckless behavior outside, but bringing her directly home, as your father, I cannot turn a blind eye!”
Mason's speech was powerful and vehement.
It was as if Larry had truly brought a mistress into the family home.
After listening to Mason's argument, Lily found it utterly ridiculous.
Originally, she had felt a slight sympathy for Larry because of how Mason conducted himself.
Now, that sympathy grew as Mason's words became more and more absurd.
She couldn't help but retort, “Mr. Scott, only those with a filthy mind would use such a perspective to judge others.”
“From the moment I rang the doorbell of the Scott family, I have made my identity clear and explained my intentions. Yet the butler, with his arrogance, not only refused to help by delivering the message, but also tried to crush my fingers in your Scott family's grand door.”
“You… you're talking nonsense.” Wendy Jenkins immediately interjected when Lily's words implicated one of their own, standing up to refute, “Uncle Mark wouldn't do such a thing; he has always been honest and dutiful to his job, he is not that kind of person.”
“Whether he is that type of person or not is not for me to make up. This is a military zone; every house has surveillance cameras outside. If you don't believe me, feel free to check the footage,” Lily contested.
“You…” Wendy Jenkins found herself at a loss for words.
