Chapter 267 The Administration Of The Laboratory
Old Willsmith’s entire face stiffened
Jeremy silently turned his face away. His grandfather was a very particular person. He had never seen
his grandfather lose his composure like this.
Smiling. Gilbert looked at Old Willsmith and said, “Old Willsmith, ignore anything else in my family, but
this meal is superb. Since you guys have come to Dawton City, why don’t you come to my house more
often to eat? Haha, I guarantee you’ll gain ten pounds when you leave!”
Old Willsmith was shocked. He couldn’t imagine what it would be like to gain ten pounds of weight. His
face. slowly turned green.
He looked at Gilbert and said, “Gilbert, that day at Willow’s funeral, you saw what happened to Draxton
Lockwood. Draxton won’t be able to live. At most, he can only survive half a year. Don’t you have any
thoughts about this?”
Old Willsmith looked at Gilbert with a burning gaze, his eyes flickering.
“Thoughts?” Gilbert sighed and said, “Sigh, I’m also very regretful about this, but thoughts alone can’t
save him
Old Willsmith was speechless.
“Gilbert, Draxton has fallen. Didn’t you think of who will be the new patriarch of the Lockwood family?
“According to the Lockwood family’s habits, the older one will become the patriarch. The oldest one now
is Gary. You’d better be careful!”
“Did I hear snacks?” Yoda walked over, and his eyes lit up. “Where are the snacks?”
Old Willsmith was speechless.
So was Jeremy.
This family was indeed abnormal!
Gilbert glanced at his son and said, “Vivian baked a small cake yesterday. It’s in the fridge. Go get it. Be
careful not to let Vivian see it!”
Yoda turned around to get it.
Old Willsmith was shocked.
“Gilbert!” he emphasized.
Gilbert said, “Old Willsmith, that’s the Lockwood family’s problem! Besides, Isabella is a Miraculous
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDoctor. With her around, Draxton might survive!”
Old Willsmith was so angry that he wanted to slam the table. He said, “It’s impossible! That’s the crystal
potion. I heard that Draxton injected it into his body. Even God wouldn’t be able to save him!”
Coincidentally, Yoda came over with a small cake. Gilbert’s eyes lit up, and he called for Old Willsmith
and Jeremy to eat together.
Old Willsmith did not know how to react.
He was so angry that his face darkened. “I’ll get straight to the point. Gilbert, Bernard and Shepard are
your grandchildren. Haven’t you ever imagined letting them become the Lockwood family’s new
patriarch?” After saying that, he stared fixedly at Gilbert, not letting go of the slightest change in his
expression.
Gilbert fell silent. He thought about his three grandsons, who were as lazy as him. He felt that the
possibility of them being the Lockwood family’s patriarch was almost zero.
Moreover, it was so tiring to be the patriarch!
Wasn’t it better to eat, drink, and play every day?
His silence made Old Willsmith think that there was a chance.
He continued, “Gilbert, think about it. If Bernard or Shepard becomes the Lockwood family’s patriarch,
the importance of the Willsmith family in Dawton City will change drastically. The Riker family is finished.
The Crawford family is also doomed. The Willsmith family has risen at the right time!”
A trace of confusion gradually appeared in Gilbert’s eyes. “If that’s the case, then wouldn’t I have no time
to study recipes?”
Old Willsmith kept quiet.
Jeremy was unsure how to react too.
Old Willsmith was so angry that he was about to stomp his feet. He finally could not help but slam the
table and stand up. “Gilbert, are you really muddle-headed or pretending to be muddle-headed? I don’t
believe that
don’t understand what I mean! The Willsmith family is not inferior to the Lockwood family. Don’t you want
your family to prosper?”
you
“Our family is quite prosperous now!” Gilbert swallowed the small cake in his mouth and comforted Old
Willsmith. “Old Willsmith, don’t be angry. I understand what you mean, but I’ll also tell you something.
Our family isn’t cut out for it. Take Bernard and Shepard, for example. They definitely don’t want to be the
patriarch. Don’t count on them.”
Old Willsmith stared at Gilbert with a sincere expression.
“I… I really came for nothing!” Old Willsmith turned around and left in anger.
Jeremy hurriedly followed.
Gilbert hurriedly stood up to send him off. Old Willsmith was extremely angry. He snapped. “Don’t send
me off. I don’t need you to send me off. Hmph!”
“Old Willsmith, take care!”
Gilbert chuckled and waved from behind..
Old Willsmith and Jeremy left Gilbert’s house. His face was dark the entire way.
“Eat, eat, eat. They only know how to eat. How did the Willsmith family have such useless members!”
Jeremy said, “Grandpa, why should we care about the Lockwood family?”
Old Willsmith glanced at him. “You don’t understand.”
“Grandpa, what do you and Old Craven want?” Jeremy asked again.
Old Willsmith’s expression changed. He looked at Jeremy sternly. “This isn’t something you should ask.
Remember, your mission is to keep an eye on the crystal experiment. Once Draxton falls, there will be a
lot of room for us to get involved in the management of the crystal experiment.”
Jeremy was still very afraid of Old Willsmith, so he didn’t dare ask any more questions. However, the
more Old Willsmith refused to talk, the more confused Jeremy was.
Due to Draxton’s accident, the atmosphere in the Lockwood family was a little solemn..
Sir Graham Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood paid more attention to Ricky and Betty.
Kieran was more attached to Ricky and Betty. Compared to his father and grandma, who forced his
mother away, he preferred to be with children his age.
His old-fashioned habits had changed because of Ricky and Betty.
At the very least, he was used to seeing Betty running around barefoot.
Coupled with Little Betty and Little Ricky, the five kids became good friends.
This day, the five kids sat in a circle on the carpet, discussing their parents.
Betty said, “My mother is a powerful woman. With her around, Dad will definitely be fine.”
Ricky nodded in agreement. “Yes, with Mom around, Dad will definitely recover.”
They had a mysterious confidence in their mother.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKieran said enviously, “It’s so nice to be able to see your mother every day. I miss my mother.”
Betty patted his head and comforted him. “Key, Ms. Elodia is doing very well now. When she recovers,
she can come and see you.”
Kieran nodded with bright eyes.
At the same time, Ziana, Elvis, and Elodia left the airport.
After over a month, Elodia’s body had recovered a lot under Greg’s care. However, she had lost a lot of
weight.
She wore a silk handkerchief on her right wrist to cover her scar.
Silas had been waiting there since early in the morning. He picked up Ziana and Elodia. Elvis took a taxi
to the hotel alone.
Silas drove to Northernville Manor, Isabella had yet to return.
This was because Isabella was stuck in the laboratory.
Isabella looked a little tired. Ever since Draxton’s accident, she couldn’t sleep well. She, Bruce, and other
researchers had been discussing Draxton’s situation.
The information left behind by Mike and the information on Old Mr. Sif cultivating The 18 Blue Crystals all
played a huge role.
Even though Isabella was very tired, she was relaxed.
She knew Master Menter and Elodia were coming. Hence, she planned to leave the laboratory and
return to Northernville Manor..
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out of the laboratory, she bumped into a group of boxing family
people. “Mrs. Lockwood, why are you here?” Old Willsmith was very surprised to see Isabella in the
laboratory.
In his opinion, Isabella should be taking care of Draxton in the Lockwood family.
He was furious after coming out of Gilbert’s house yesterday. He still hadn’t calmed down, so his tone.
couldn’t help but sound somewhat angry.
“Old Willsmith, what are you talking about? Why can’t I be here? On the other hand, the crystal potion.
experiment hasn’t officially begun. What are you doing here?”
Isabella asked in return.
“Mrs. Lockwood, we’re all future people in charge of the laboratory. Why do you think we’re here? As a
woman, you should take good care of Draxton at home and spend his last moment with him. You
shouldn’t be distracted and come to such a place!”
The person who spoke was Old Craven. He sized up Isabella with a sharp gaze.
