My Weak Wife Is a Real Goddess

Chapter 20

Of course, it was one of those kids’ parents again.

Since Howard announced that he cut ties with her, those people had been spamming her phone non

stop.

Some lowered their heads, begging her for forgiveness.

Some people were still arrogant and claimed that they would kill her if she did not withdraw her report.

Lucille picked up her phone to take a look at the screen and hung up.

Just as she hung up on one, a new call came in. Lucille was about to hang up once more, but when

she glanced at the phone number and found it oddly familiar.

After thinking about it carefully, she suddenly realized that it was a call from Joseph!

Lucille hesitated for a moment before answering the call.

As soon as the call was connected, the man’s deep and magnetic voice resonated through the

speaker.

“Good evening.”

Lucille walked to the sofa and lay down lazily. “What’s the matter?”

She was too lazy to ask how he got her phone number.

“I heard that you cut ties with the Jules family.” The man chuckled in a low voice. “I just called to

congratulate you.”

Lucille raised an eyebrow and flicked her hair. “Thank you for your concern. If there’s nothing else,

goodbye.” “Wait.” Joseph quickly stopped her. “Don’t hang up yet.”

“Is there anything else?” Lucille’s voice was as drowsy as a sleeping cat.

The corners of Joseph’s lips could not help but curl up as he said in a low voice, “A little bird told me

that you’re breaking up with Samuel?”

Lucille.raised an eyebrow. “I see rumors spread fast.”

This was her way of indirectly confirming it.

The smile on Joseph’s face grew even wider. He walked to the window and looked out at the moon.

“Got it, good night.”

The man’s voice was clear and crisp, yet deep and magnetic. When it landed in Lucille’s ears, it made

her heart tremble inexplicably.

After hanging up, Lucille turned off the lights and went to bed. She lay on the bed and looked out of the

window at the moon.

After a long while, it finally dawned on her that Joseph’s reply to her breaking off the engagement was

‘got it’. So he knows now, what next?

For some reason, Lucille felt irritated. She turned over, buried her head in the blanket, and fell asleep.

At the same time, over at the Collins family house.

Culver hurried into the study and placed a thick stack of documents in front of the man.

“Mr. Joseph, all the information you requested is here. These documents have details of everything that

happened to Miss Lucille Jules since she was a child.”

Joseph picked up the papers and raised his hand slightly. “You may leave.”

“Yes, sir!”

After Culver left, Joseph began to flip through the documents.

When he saw the words ‘Lucille’ on the first page, the man’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a dark light

flashed in his eyes.

In the blink of an eye, the weekends have finally arrived.

Today was the diamond anniversary of Master Gilbert and his wife.

The Gilbert family had thrown a grand banquet and invited all the rich and powerful families in Shein

City to attend.

At the break of daylight, Lucille was already prepared with the marriage certificate to pay the Gilbert

family at visit.

Before leaving, Madam Dahlia didn’t want her to go alone, but Lucille stopped her.

“Madam Dahlia, you can help me by decorating the villa. Buy all the furniture and appliances we need

and we’ll move in soon.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”

With Lucille’s repeated promises, Madam Dahlia reluctantly left.

Deep down, she knew that it was Jules family’s loss to have cut ties with a daughter like Lucille.

Sooner or later, they would regret it!

In the Gilbert family’s villa.

At this moment, the guests were gathered in a happy atmosphere. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Master Gilbert and Mrs. Gilbert, surrounded by their grandkids, were happily chit-chatting under the

enchanting music.

Everyone’s attention was naturally focused on the two leading roles.

Soon enough, the crowd raised their glasses to congratulate them.

“Congratulations, Master and Mrs. Gilbert. You’ve been together for fifty years, yet your love is still as

fresh as it was the day you got married!”

“Gongratulations!”

Master Gilbert was over 70 years old, still in high spirits, and his face was red from the laughing and

alcohol. He touched his white beard with a smile and said, “Thank you for coming to my party. I’ve

prepared wine and food for everybody. I apologize if there are any shortcomings in advance.”

“No, no, no!”

The crowd began to chant in disagreement. For a moment, the atmosphere wasn’t quiet and peaceful.

Mrs. Gilbert smiled very kindly. She looked around then turned to Samuel in confusion. “Sam, why

didn’t you bring Lucille with you? She’s your fiancee, how can she not attend our celebration?”

Mrs. Gilbert adored Lucille. She didn’t care about the rumors, she only believed her own eyes.

“Grandma.” Samuel looked at her hesitantly. “There’s something I want to tell you.”

He still hadn’t shared the news of his engagement with his family. He didn’t dare to.

Because he knew that his grandparents would definitely object.

After all, they were the ones who arranged the marriage.

But for Zoey, he was willing to go against the entire world!

Mrs. Gilbert looked at him expectantly and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Samuel took a deep breath and turned to look at Zoey, who was blending among the guests. He

reached out his hand to her and said, “Zoey, come here.”

Zoey took a deep breath, plastered a smile on her face, then lifted the hem of her dress, and walked to

Samuel with her most beautiful posture.

Samuel held her hand gently and faced the audience as if he was about to make an announcement..

All of a sudden, the guests present began to whisper.

“Why is Mr. Gilbert with the adopted daughter of the Jules family?”

“en’t his fiancee Miss Lucille?”

“Oh my god, this is big news!”

Listening to the whispers from below the stage, Master. Gilbert and Mrs. Gilbert’s faces darkened at the

same. time.

“Samuel! What the hell is going on?”

Samuel raised his head and met the angry eyes of the two elders. “Grandpa, Grandma, the person I

really like is Zoey. I want to break off the engagement with Lucille and marry her instead!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd burst into an uproar.

Samuel held Zoey’s hand tightly, with a fearless look on his face.

For the first time, he felt that he was a true man.

Many of the daughters and sons from various prestigious families huddled closely to whisper amongst

one another.

“Everyone knows about Samuel and Zoey. Lucille couldn’t get Samuel’s love and attention, so she

made Zoey’s life a living hell.”

“Zoey’s story is so sad. Her father died in order to save Mr. Jules. Even though they adopted her, she

was still treated as an outsider. Lucille kept bullying her and she never fought back. On the contrary,

she always fought to defend her. What a sad story.”

After the discussion, the crowd began to speak up for Zoey.

“Madam, this is the era where we’re free to love. Since Mr. Gilbert likes Miss Johnson, why don’t you

give them your blessing?”

“Yes! Although Miss Johnson is only the adopted daughter of the Jules family, the Jules family treats

her better than their own daughter. In addition, she is also beautiful and kind. She’s definitely the better

choice than Lucille!”

“That’s right! You have to marry the right person! Lucille isn’t someone you wish to marry!”

The crowd chimed in one after another, all of them standing on Zoey’s side, not a single one of them

was being impartial.

Mrs. Gilbert and Master Gilbert looked at Samuel with aching hearts, their eyes full of disappointment.

They couldn’t believe that their beloved grandson would do such a thing to seduce the sister of his

fiancee instead.

“Grandpa, grandma, there’s no use.” Samuel raised his voice and said, “I’ve made up my mind. In this

life, I’ll never marry anyone unless it’s Zoey!”

“Pfft-”

Just then, a mocking voice suddenly came from outside the door.

The crowd looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lucille holding her bag with one hand as she

marched in with dissatisfaction.
