The billionaire's kick-ass wife novel (Isabella) novel Chapter 272

Chapter 272 Sir Graham Lockwood’s Support

“Perhaps you have some misunderstanding about the patriarch’s wife,” Isabella said.

“You have a good personality,” said Quentin. “But you don’t understand the situation”

Isabella stopped talking.

Her lips twitched as she concentrated on driving

After a moment of silence in the car, Quentin asked again. “Young lady, who’s your husband?”

Isabella did not reply immediately.

She was silent for a moment before saying. “He’s from the Lockwood family.”

“Oh?” Quentin exclaimed in surprise. “Which branch of the family has such good fortune? Tell me, whose family are you from?”

Quentin was feeling very curious.

Isabella was worried that if she told the truth, the old man would jump out of the car on the spot.

Hence, she pointed ahead and said, “Sir, we’ve arrived at the Lockwood family’s residence.”

The gate of the Lockwood family’s residence sensed Isabella’s car and automatically slid open. There was no need for her to announce herself.

“Young lady, do you come to this residence often?”

Quentin knew very well that if an outsider’s car wanted to enter the Lockwood family’s residence, it had to go through a thorough security check on the spot before it was allowed to enter.

However, Isabella’s car was allowed to drive in without any checks.

“Yes, quite often,” replied Isabella.

Quentin was a little stunned. A thought flashed across his mind, but it was only for a second. He did not think too deeply about it.

Isabella and Quentin entered the house together. They did not even knock on the door.

Sir Graham Lockwood was playing with Ricky and Betty in the living room.

The two young children did not cause the adults to worry about them, unlike other children. They were obedient and sensible. Most of the time, it was the two young children who ended up feeling very exasperated because of their great-grandpa. They had to pacify their great-grandpa instead.

When Isabella came in, she saw Sir Graham Lockwood playing the fool with the children.

Isabella could not help but laugh. The two children were very sharp and immediately noticed her. They immediately pushed their great-grandpa aside and ran toward Isabella.

“Mommy!”

The two little children had called out in unison, their little voices filled with joy.

Isabella squatted down and kissed their little faces. She asked gently, “Did you miss me?”

“Yes, I miss Mommy. I miss Daddy, too,” said the two little children, blinking their big eyes.

Isabella’s heart ached. Betty asked, “Mommy, when will Daddy wake up?”

Isabella said, “It will take a while, but don’t worry, I will definitely cure Daddy.

“In a few days, I will bring you guys into the laboratory to see Daddy, okay?”

“Okay!”

The two children were extremely obedient.

From the side, Quentin stared blankly.

He stood to the side in a daze. He was completely dumbfounded.

At this moment, his mind was filled with embarrassment.

Now, he naturally knew who Isabella was. That meant that he must have been out of his mind to have spoken ill of her in front of her.

“Quentin, why are you in a daze?” Sir Graham Lockwood looked at Quentin in puzzlement. Quentin had been. in a daze ever since he entered the house and he looked like a fool.

When Quentin heard Sir Graham Lockwood’s voice, he snapped out of his daze and quickly greeted the previous patriarch respectfully, and said, “Sir Graham Lockwood, I am here about a certain matter.”

“Come and sit,” said Sir Graham Lockwood, patting the sofa beside him. “You haven’t been to this residence in a long time. I didn’t see you at the Christmas gathering.”

Quentin walked over and sat down. At this moment, Isabella walked over with the children. She smiled and said, “Grandpa, I happened to meet Mr. Quentin Lockwood on my way here. His car had some problems, so I gave him a ride.”

“You recognized me?” Quentin almost jumped up. His first reaction was that this woman was indeed scheming!

However, when he looked at Isabella’s meek face and gentle eyes, he felt guilty.

Isabella raised her eyebrows and said, “Of course I recognized you. Otherwise, do you think I would casually bring strangers into the Lockwood family’s residence?”

Quentin opened his mouth and wanted to retort. But he finally felt that what Isabella said made sense.

Sir Graham Lockwood asked, “Quentin, what do you want to discuss with me?” If there was nothing serious, Quentin would usually not visit Sir Graham Lockwood. The matter was clearly not a small one.

Therefore, Sir Graham Lockwood’s expression was a little serious.
