"Why do you come back so late?" Lydia had been waiting at the door for a long time. As soon as she saw James entering the house, she went forward in a hurry and looked at him with concern, "What on earth has happened?"
James frowned hard and had no time to change his shoes, "Nothing. Don't worry too much."
Hearing this, Lydia immediately shouted, "How can I not worry? You brat! Just put yourself in my shoes!" When she received the message, she really couldn't believe it, so she could only ask James to come back.
James naturally understood Lydia's mood, "I understand." He nodded, "But, Mom, this is a misunderstanding. Elizabeth is not such a person."
Lydia sighed, "I like Elizabeth very much, and I don't think she's that kind of person. But those photos... Alas! My head is going to explode and I am really worried."
Since the first time Lydia saw Elizabeth, she had liked Elizabeth from the bottom of her heart. Moreover, after getting along with Elizabeth for a few months, she liked her more and more.
She really didn't want to believe this matter from the bottom of her heart. However, it seemed that this matter had caused a great stir. On the one hand, she felt distressed because Elizabeth had been treated like that. No matter what, Elizabeth was just a girl. No matter how many social experiences Elizabeth had, she couldn't bear to see Elizabeth being gossiped about and insulted.
On the other hand, she was really afraid that this matter was true. In that case...
Alas!
James was not in the mood to comfort Lydia. He asked, "You just said on the phone that someone sent you the message?"
"Yes!" Lydia nodded anxiously, "I was wondering why that person told me such a thing. Then, I logged in to the school website of A University... After that, I called the person who sent the message and wanted to ask about it, but I couldn't get through."
James narrowed his eyes, and the expression in his eyes was intense and fierce.
"Jimmy, you are with Elizabeth every day. You should know that, shouldn't you? But I don't think Elizabeth is a bad girl, you..."
"Yeah." Before Lydia finished her words, James said, "Mom, since you know that she is not a bad girl, you can rest assured. I will deal with this matter and improve her innocence, okay?"
At first, he was glad that his parents didn't know about this matter, but it seemed... that person really wanted to ruin Elizabeth.
He sneered in heart.
Since that person dared to hurt Elizabeth, he wouldn't show him or her any mercy!
"However, thank you for believing Elizabeth, mom."
"You don't have to thank me!" Lydia glared at James reproachfully, "Elizabeth has married you. She's your wife, and also my daughter-in-law. At this time, of course, I should believe her. Although those comments online are harsh, I don't believe what they said. Even if she really went to those places and met so many men, she must have her own reasons. In short, I don't believe that she's a bad girl!" Although she had once suspected Elizabeth, she finally chose to stand on Elizabeth's side.
After being touched by what Richard had said, James was moved by Lydia's words again.
John stood still and didn't say anything.
James raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything else.
Lydia, however, was anxious. She let go of James's hand and ran to John in a few steps, "Hey! John, Jimmy is back. He called you just now." Could John stop putting on airs at this time?
John heard this and snorted, "I heard that."
"Since you heard that, just turn around and talk to him." She was so angry! She let James come home and wanted to ask him about this matter, but John had such a bad attitude! Didn't he know
that time was clearly getting short? Elizabeth was suffering from mental torture!
John looked at Lydia helplessly. Finally, he turned around as told and glared at James with dissatisfaction. Then he took two steps to the desk, grabbed an envelope on the table, and threw it at James.
"B*stard!"
James had been getting along with John for thirty years, so he naturally knew John's temperament. Therefore, he had been mentally prepared as early as he entered the study. At this time, although John hit him with the envelope, he stepped aside and avoid the envelope easily.
"Hey!" Seeing this, Lydia was shocked and walked to John in a hurry. In order to prevent him from beating James, she shouted anxiously, "John, what are you doing?"
