Chapter 452: Chapter 455 Unmasking the True Face of the Gray Family (4)
Rowena Gray and Milly Gray hadn’t noticed anything wrong with Madam Gray yet.
They thought she was just pretending to be sick and immediately cooperated by supporting her and shouting.
The two were about to complain about the “unfilial” behavior of Lily Gray and Aidan Lucas.
Suddenly, there was a “wah” sound.
Madam Gray unexpectedly vomited out all the food she had just eaten, undigested.
Rowena and Milly couldn’t avoid it in time.
They were splashed by the filth Madam Gray had thrown up.
“Mom—what the hell are you doing? You vomited all over me!” Rowena instinctively pushed Madam Gray away.
Milly also jumped away with disgust, complaining coquettishly, “This is a skirt worth hundreds of thousands that I bought, Grandma! Were you not paying attention at all?”
Madam Gray, who had been unsteady to begin with, was pushed to the ground, landing in the puddle of filth.
The guests who saw this scene couldn’t help but despise Rowena and her daughter.
After all, Madam Gray had done so much for them.
But in the end, this was how they treated their grandmother.
Soon, the hotel staff came over to clean the scene.
Sebastian Lucas VII took some people and threw Rowena and Milly out directly.
As for Sonya Hamilton, considering her age, they still called an ambulance for her and sent her to the hospital.
However, considering her age, even if she was saved, she would probably never have a good life again.

A farce wouldn’t affect the mood of the banquet’s host and guests.
On the contrary, Lily Gray, who had been brought back to the main table by Aidan Lucas, was looking at Austin Lucas’s family coming over to toast her with a smile at the corner of her mouth.
The traditions of the Lucas family.
When the lady of the house enters, all the branches of the family must come up to serve tea and pour water.
This had been the rule in the Lucas family for centuries, and no one could escape it.
Just now, Lily Gray had already drunk the tea offered by the previous branches.
Now, it was finally the turn of the fourth branch.
“Young Lady, I am Brandon Lucas, the head of the fourth branch of the Lucas family,” Brandon Lucas said with a complicated look as he stood in front of Lily Gray.
He held the teacup with both hands, bowing slightly to offer it to her.
Her impression of this former father-in-law was actually not bad.
At least, during her half-year stay at Austin Lucas’s house, this former father- in-law had never intentionally humiliated her.
“Hmm.” Lily Gray nodded, accepted the tea very readily, sipped it, and put it down.
Pregnant women should avoid tea, so she just pretended to drink it without actually swallowing.
After drinking the tea, according to the rules, Brandon Lucas had to start introducing the situation of his family.
This was also a rule passed down from their ancestors.
Because the Lucas family was large and had a large population.
In the past, when a new married lady entered the family, the heads of each branch had to introduce the main situation of their family to her.
The main reason for doing this was to prevent conflicts from happening outside, which could lead to friendly fire among the family members.
For example, three months ago, Michelle Carter and Zara Lowe met Aidan Lucas but didn’t recognize him and even offended him.
That’s because when Aidan Lucas inherited the position of head of the family.
The two hadn’t yet entered the Lucas family’s door, so they naturally couldn’t have known Aidan Lucas.
“Young Lady, this is my eldest son, Austin Lucas,” said Brandon Lucas, slightly stepping aside to give Austin Lucas space.
Austin Lucas was called by name by Brandon Lucas and took a step forward.
His tall figure immediately enveloped Lily Gray completely.
Brandon Lucas suddenly realized that Austin’s step was too big.
He took one step and approached Lily Gray.
The distance between the two was less than a foot.
Such a distance was obviously too intrusive.
