"Elder George, please believe me. I'm really not involved in this matter. I won't ruin the family's business plan because of a little girl. Please believe me."
If it was only because of her feelings for Zhai Yunsheng, Lucy would not have lost her mind to do such a thing.
It was the family compass that made her lose her mind.
"Is that so? Perhaps there's something else that made you do such an irrational thing? "Elder George asked. His eyes were sharp.
"I didn't. Please believe me."
"I can believe you this time. However, if I find out that you lied or made another mistake, you will end up like your father."
"I know. Elder George, please rest assured."
Lucy's heart was as cold as the winter wind.
To the family, she was a chess piece that could be abandoned at any time.
She was treading on thin ice in the family. If she made a mistake, the elders would abandon her.
Others envied her for being born into a top family like the Goodman family.
However, they didn't know that in this family, she only received cruel competition.
The elders did not love her. They only taught her and looked forward to her.
For example, Elder George's real identity was her paternal cousin. He was her grandfather's brother.

During dinner, Wen Nuan and Jian Shuxing stayed to accompany Jian Yiling.
The couple looked at their daughter in front of them. Their appetite was exceptionally good.
No matter how ordinary the food was, it became delicious.
Wen Nuan cooked some soup. The taste was average. Fortunately, it wasn't that bad.
"I'll try harder. I'll try to make it better." Wen Nuan knew that her cooking skills were not good. When she thought about how she could cook for her daughter in the future, Wen Nuan made up her mind to focus on cooking.
"It's good." Jian Yiling's voice was soft. Her eyes did not look directly at Wen Nuan. However, she was already trying her best to respond to Wen Nuan's concern.
Jian Yiheng and Jian Yichen were also there. As usual, the two of them came to Jian Yiling's house to eat.
After Jian Yiling ate for a while, she suddenly covered her chest with one hand. It seemed as though she was feeling uncomfortable.
"Yiling, what's wrong?" Jian Yichen asked when he saw Jian Yiling covering her chest.
"I'm fine."
"I'll take you to the hospital right now!" Jian Yichen cried out. He grabbed Jian Yiling's hand and wanted to take her to the hospital.
"What are you doing?" Jian Yiheng asked. He stopped his brother: "You're squeezing her hand so hard that it's red."
However, the other people at the table did not understand why Jian Yichen had such a big reaction. His behavior was quite abnormal.
Upon hearing Jian Yiheng's reminder, Jian Yichen realized that he had squeezed his sister's hand too hard. As a result, his sister's hand was red.
"I'm sorry," Jian Yichen said. He hurriedly let go of his hand and apologized.
"It's nothing," Jian Yiling replied as she shook her head. "Brother Yichen, I have something to tell you."
Jian Yiling wanted to talk to Jian Yichen alone.
The two of them entered the study. As soon as the door was closed, even Zhai Yunsheng couldn't hear their conversation.
The people outside the door were confused and worried.
Wen Nuan asked Jian Shuxing: "What's wrong with Yiling? Is there anything wrong? "
Jian Shuxing comforted his wife. At the same time, he comforted himself: "It's okay. Yiling is the best doctor in the world. How could anything happen to her? They must have been whispering to each other. They've been weird since they were young, so they have a common topic to talk about. "
