Chapter 927
Margaret looked fierce but was actually afraid of her husband.
When Hugo was still alive, she dared not say a word. He was the master of the family, so even if she did not like the eldest daughter-in-law
or the grandson, she could not say a word about it. Hugo decided to entrust them with the family business and would even carefully guide
them.
No matter how dissatisfied she was, she could not say anything.
She did not possess the authority to speak in this family until Hugo's passing. She wanted to handle everything because she believed she
had great power.
However, by then, Alexander had grown up and no longer listened to her, so she disliked him even more. He moved out of the Russell Estate
and lived away all these years. Margaret did not care because he was an eyesore.

Margaret arrived intending to slap Lily in the face, but she did not expect Alexander to return and
protect her. It was the same as Hugo's way of protecting his daughter-in-law, which enraged her even
more.
"Alexander! Don't forget that I'm your grandma!" She stood up and spoke angrily.
"Of course, I know. Not only do I remember you as my grandma, but I also remember how you treated
me, our family, and my parents since I was a child." His tone turned cold as he continued, ''Grandma
since you're quite old now, you should take the time to enjoy your old age. Our family is not big, but you
have enough children and grandchildren. Go and entertain them, and don’t worry too much about other
things!”
"How rude of you!” Margaret was trembling in a fury at the strong insinuation of those words.
'That's right, Grandma, otherwise, how could you support the Russell family's huge domestic business?
How can you ensure our family lives comfortably and then have the leisure to do other things?" He
replied as he raised his head.
Celine decided that, given the circumstances, it was not the right time to carryout her plan. In addition,
she had been quite impulsive earlier, so she felt guilty and hurriedly pulled Margaret away, "Mom, it’s
been a long day today. Your body can't handle it. Why don't we go back to rest?"
"Alexander, hurry up and change your clothes, then put on some ointment. I didn't mean to do that,"
she hesitated and spoke politely.
That was the most humble attitude she could adopt because she couldn't apologize. She was an elder,
so how could she apologize to the younger generation, especially since the argument had nothing to do
with her?

Celine lowered her head calmly and turned to Margaret, saying, "Mom, let's go home and let them
rest."
"Humph!" Margaret was furious, snorted loudly, and walked slowly forward.
When she reached the door, she heard Alexander say, "Wait a minute!"
They stood there, puzzled, thinking he had changed his mind.
However, before they could speak, she heard him say to the housekeeper, ’ Come, bring everything they brought back to their car. We don’t
need these things!"
Margaret's face trembled. "Oh, what a great grandson!" She turned her head fiercely and walked away without looking back.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Lily could not wait any longer and immediately unbuttoned his shirt, saying, "Let me see what the burn looks
like. Why did you rush over here? That glass of water isn't too hot. It's not that I couldn't dodge, and even so, it's nothing if it spills on me!”
She was angry and anxious at the same time. How could he use his body to block the hot water? What would she do if he got scalded?
