His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)
Chapter 1215

Chapter 1215

The 100-year-old Russell Estate looked the same as usual, but one might think it had significantly aged due to all that had happened recently.

Ralph knelt by the bed in Margaret's bedroom. He had lost a lot of weight, and his hair on both sides had become grayer.

Margaret had mixed feelings seeing him. She shut her eyes without saying anything as tears slowly fell from the corners of her eyes.

"I'm sorry. Mom! I wish I could still call you so. I was wrong," Ralph said lowly.'

"I've thought it through. It's not entirely your fault, and I'm partly to blame for failing to guide you properly until you turned out like this." Margaret said in a nasal tone as her eyes remained closed. She continued slowly, "Forget it if you'd like me to reinstate you as a Russel family member. From now on, Alex will take charge of everything, and I will no longer interfere with his decisions." Ralph lowered his head. "I didn't come to ask you for anything but to apologize. I consider myself lucky to be alive. I want nothing else and hope you can allow me to care for you."

Margaret opened her eyes to look at Ralph. "You mean it?" "I've signed the papers to return everything to the Russell family since they don't belong to me. I'm an orphan, and I should be grateful that you've cared for me for many years. Annie lost her life because of me. I-I've wronged too many people that I deserve to die!" He burst into tears.

"Who's Annie?" Margaret had not learned about what happened and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"She's a woman I'm indebted to for life." Ralph felt a deep sting when he thought of how Hannah looked at him before she died. He thought nothing mattered more than staying alive, but he knew now he was wrong, as many things did.

Sadly, he knew he could not start over.

A year and a half later, La Beaute Group opened its tenth branch overseas and expanded its business empire.

Simultaneously, Lily's studio grew, and her perfumes became the world's top brand.

It was something to die for, but she had too much on her plate.

"Galen Russell, I told you not to climb on that! Are you deaf?" Lily was holding a test tube when she shouted angrily and hurried over to pull him off the table.

The one-year-old boy grinned and giggled, showing a few teeth. He looked so adorable that Lily could not bear to smack his buttock. She sighed and said, "I wish you were a baby in my belly again so you wouldn't be climbing all over."

She thought she could focus on her perfumery career after giving birth to her son, but the boy was the opposite of Alexander, always restless and mischievous.

"Then your belly will explode!" Olivia laughed, pointing at Lily's belly.

Since Lily was pregnant with twins now, and her bulging stomach was much bigger than before, it might explode if Galen was back inside.

Lily snorted. "Look who's talking. Aren't you the same?"

Olivia was carrying a baby too. The two pregnant women enjoyed working and bantering in the studio daily.

"Why aren't you even a bit like your dad? If you behave like this again. I'll leave you at home and not bring you here again." Lily patted her son's buttock and spoke threateningly.
