Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 623

However, since Leonard hadn't brought it up, Lillian hadn't mentioned it either.

Leonard had always been a very steady person. If he hadn't suggested it, he must have had his reasons, so Lillian didn't push the matter.

Now that Leonard had proposed it, Lillian naturally had no objections.

"Let's schedule it for the weekend, then."

Lillian knew that Leonard likely wanted to assess how the Lancaster family treated her and observe them more closely.

But between intelligent people, some things didn't need to be spelled out. Mutual understanding was enough.

Lillian understood and didn't blame him.

Leonard smiled, grateful for her understanding.

The Mercer family had bullied Lillian far too much. They had tried to take advantage of her in every way, and whenever their interests were at stake, they would throw her out as a shield without a second thought.

Therefore, Leonard needed more time to verify the character of her relatives' family and their dedication to Lillian.

This time, Lillian wanted to bring the Lancaster family into her business venture. Bringing them in just as the company was about to become profitable was essentially handing profits over to them.

Leonard hadn't said anything, but he always needed to observe a little longer.

Lillian had suffered so many losses in the past. Now that he was here, he would never let her be bullied or taken advantage of again.

When Lillian suggested the weekend, Leonard nodded. "Alright. I'll hire a good chef from Midvale to come and prepare a proper feast.

"By the way, you can tell me in advance if they have any dietary restrictions."

Lillian smiled. "There's really no need to go to all that trouble. Our usual way is fine. The chefs in the villa are excellent; there's no need to make such a fuss and bring someone all the way from Midvale."

Leonard replied, "This is different. The Lancaster family doesn't know about your condition. They likely just saw that your energy wasn't what it used to be and brought this master over.

"They value you so much, so I can't drop the ball on my end. This dinner for them must be taken seriously."

"Okay, you're the boss. Whatever you say."
