Chapter 659

Lily sneered icily and asked, "How is that not my business? Just a short while ago, Granduncle said
that since this was a meeting of the Lodge family, anyone outside the family had no business being
present.

If Grandpa already expelled you from the Lodge family, what gives you the right to be here?"

"You're not qualified to question my presence here!"

Henry looked at Lily nastily.

"You're wrong.Not only do I have the right, but everyone here also has the right to question why you're
allowed to be here."

Lily did not back down and looked him in the eye.

Henry started to counter, but Jonathan cleared his throat and said, "Lily, you’re right, but Henry isn’t
wrong either.I’ve heard of what happened in the past, but we should let bygones be bygones.Besides,
there shouldn’t be hatred that lasts forever between father and son."

"Furthermore, everyone knows that Henry was your grandfather's favorite.He was blinded by anger
when he banished Henry from the family, and we shouldn't take it to heart.Anyway..."

Jonathan paused and looked coldly at Lily, but his voice was calm, "

You were very young when that incident happened, so how would you know what happened? It’s only
natural that you didn’t understand the situation because you were so young."



It sounded like Jonathan was analyzing the situation fairly, but he was just helping Henry and making
light of her grandfather’s decision with a bunch of excuses.

It was obvious that Jonathan and Henry were two sides of the same coin!

"Moreover..."

He coughed into his fist and continued, "Henry is still your uncle, and you’re being insolent talking to
him this way!"

"Today, we’re all gathered here to find out the truth of my grandfather’s death, not to discuss
seniority.Besides, if we’re talking about seniority, Henry shouldn’t be the one to give orders here! Since
he’s not part of the family anymore, he’s not my uncle.Why should my attitude toward him be a
problem? This has nothing to do with our discussion today as well!"

Lily stressed.

"You have quite a sharp tongue, don’t you?"

Henry narrowed his eyes at her in anger.

When he left the family years ago, Lily was still a kid and did not make an impression on him, so he
cared little about her existence.

All these years, when he was away from the family’s influence and having a tough time outside, he
heard the news from the Lodge family occasionally.

There was no point in caring about Lily's news, and if he did not need her to carry out his plan, he
would not have noticed her.



However, he did not expect her to be his largest obstacle in reclaiming his rightful position in the Lodge
family.He had underestimated her.

"Enough!"

Jonathan knocked his cane on the ground and said, "Stop this useless argument of yours.Since you’re
aware that we’re here to find out the truth, stop this menace and let us get straight to the point.Unless
you’re intentionally trying to distract us from this issue?"

Since Jonathan did not want to continue the argument, he turned around, grabbed something from the
person behind him, and faced Lily again.He looked at her quite intently this time.

Jonathan slowly walked toward Lily and stopped in front of her.He flung a document into her arms.

"Look at this!"

At the same time, everyone in the room was given the exact copy of the document, so they opened
their envelopes to look at what was written inside.
