Chapter 723
His heart skipped a beat.
It was so painful that lan gritted his teeth secretly and took a while to
recover.
He could not care less about Lucia and hurriedly turned to Kelly. He looked at her up and down nervously and asked worriedly, "Did they bully you? Were you angry yesterday? Why didn't you tell me?"
After saying that, he grabbed Kelly's hands and swept his gaze over her face carefully, not missing any hint of abnormalities.
No one had expected lan to care so much about Kelly.
Everyone was stunned and took a while to come back to their senses.
Kelly was stunned, too, and quickly explained, "No, they didn't. It's just some misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding!" lan frowned deeply. He looked very dissatisfied and coldly reprimanded Lucia, "Since you invited Kelly, why didn't you check beforehand? A misunderstanding actually happened. How did you treat your guest?"
Lucia had initially wanted lan to be disgusted with Kelly's narrow-mindedness. She did not expect to be criticized in the end.
She was very aggrieved. "Ian, I've already said it's a misunderstanding. Why are you still blaming me?"
lan looked cold. "Since you lack social skills, you should avoid socializing, let alone hosting gatherings."
After saying this coldly, lan ignored Lucia. He instead turned to Kelly and carefully reminded her, "This girl is no good. In the future, don't bother with her."
The moment he said this, Lucia's expression changed.
If this were to spread, wouldn't it make others ridicule Lucia for being

insensible and incompetent?
This was indeed not a good reputation
Hanna, Lucia's mother, couldn't help but say, "Tan, Lucía is your cousin and a family member. Just talk it out if there's a misunderstanding between family members. There's no need to be so strict."
After saying that, Hanna turned to Joshua and complained, "Dad, look at lan. He's making a mountain out of a molehill. You dote on him so much, but in the end, he doesn't respect Lucia at all and the Phil family. If what he said just now spreads, what will outsiders think of Lucia?"
Kelly had been sitting quietly on the chair. Upon hearing what Hanna said, she immediately looked at Joshua nervously.
Was this the legendary domestic conflict, and one should get popcorn?
What should she do? Joshua must not be disappointed with lan.
lan was straightforward and did not understand these twists and turns at
all.
What must she do so that she could lan?
For a moment, Kelly was anxious and worried. She hated herself for only practicing martial arts previously. After making a debut, she focused entirely on improving her acting skills without consideration for domestic
conflicts.
Just as she was feeling anxious, lan spoke unhurriedly.
He did not look at Joshua but Hanna with a faint smile. "Aunt Hanna, do I have to make myself clear? Kelly grew up in a simple environment and has a simple nature. However, Lucia is different. She grew up in a grand mansion mingling with many people and has a calculating mind.
"If she had the intention to take care of and support others, how could misunderstandings happen?
"Kelly is kind and doesn't like to be calculative. That's why she said it was a misunderstanding. The truth is Lucia had deliberately made things

difficult for Kelly!"

After saying that, lan looked at Joshua and said respectfully, "Grandpa, I'm with Kelly. If you don't welcome Kelly, you don't welcome me. Since everyone dislikes me so much, I won't stay in the Phil family to annoy people.
"Grandpa, don't worry. I just don't want to make things unpleasant. I'll live near the Phil family. If you miss me, you can stay at my place and let Kelly and I take care of you."
With that, he stood up and was about to leave.
This change shocked everyone.
Kelly looked up in a daze. She did not expect her insignificant grievance to have caused lan to decide to move out
Moreover, he fell out in front of everyone!
