Chapter 862 Kirks Wife (1/2)
”Second, we all know we've been going through some issues lately. Even though Elizabeth is Kirk's wife, I still don't want our issues affecting them. She'll only be here for a week. I'm sure everything will go smoothly as long as we're all careful.”
Benjamin glanced solemnly at everyone.
Ultimately, he just didn't want any shameful family secrets getting out.
Even if Elizabeth would be married to Kirk, that was to say she would be a member of the Qi family, Benjamin still didn't want her to know anything about the family secrets.
However, whatever was going on in the Qi family was no longer a secret.

As everyone started to head outside, Zed and Jean stayed behind for a while to talk. Jean sighed. ”You can tell how different Grandpa Benjamin is treating Elizabeth as compared to when he met me for the first time. I remember just a few months ago, I tried my best to take care of him and I did everything I could to please him but he still didn't like me. Zed, maybe your dad was the one who was adopted,”
Jean murmured.
”Nonsense! Stop it, Jean,” Zed dismissed her, looking rather displeased.
Jean knew that it was an inappropriate time to make such a joke, so she stuck her tongue out in embarrassment.
”It boils down to who Elizabeth is. It's a little complicated that's why
“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.
