Chapter 25 Stealing Mr. Clancy's Wife in His Presence?

Lilith, the mother of Pollard, arrived at the gate of Peace Restaurant with five ladies from really wealthy families.
At this time, a lady found Queenie at the very first sight.
"Huh... Lilith, isn't this your daughter-in-law-to-be?" Karel Clifton, the wife of Weider Clifton and the president of the Coast City Commercial Chamber smiled brightly and walked over enthusiastically to hold Queenie's hand.
"Queenie, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much." Karel looked at Lilith jealously, saying, "I really envy you for having such a gorgeous daughter-in-law who is dignified and sedate. Look at her temperament, how good it is!"
Queenie took her hand away lightly, and smiled politely, "Mrs. Clifton, Lilith now is my sister-in-law."
"What?" Karel reacted greatly, and she was stunned. "What sister-in-law? It's that true?"
Karel had a husband controlling the Coast City Commercial Chamber, and everyone should give her some favors.
She was born with a loud voice, and always did things and spoke freely, but now she acted like there was a stone thrown into a deep lake.
Queenie looked indifferent and smiled at Lilith. "Then you will have to ask my new good sister-in-law."
Karel had been around in her early days and immediately knew some things had happened. She pulled down her face instantly, and heckled sharply, "Lilith, what is going on?"
Lilith claimed to be the First Lady of Coast City, and when she was asked this question in such an impolite way, she couldn't help feeling embarrassed. So she could only reply with a stiff smile, "It's family stuff."
"Family stuff? Sister-in-law?" Karel frowned, her eyes fell on Benoit Clancy, who was in a wheelchair, and she exclaimed, "Shoot, Queenie, you won't become the wife of the lamed Benoit, will you?"
Queenie couldn't help laughing secretly.
She had met Karel before and knew very well that Karel was a straightforward person who always said whatever she wanted.
At this moment, she also knew that Karel was just complaining about the injustice she encountered, and didn't mean to laugh at Benoit at all.
Sensing the smile on the corner of Queenie's mouth, Benoit's face froze slightly, and he raised his eyes to glance at Karel.
"That's right, Queenie is the lamed Benoit's wife."
"No!" Karel gave Benoit a disgusted look, then took Queenie's hand, pulled her away a little, and asked in a low voice, "Queenie, are you two in a relationship? If only so, why not just be my daughter-in-law? My two sons, you pick anyone you like."
It is indeed very offensive and provocative to try to steal his wife in the face of him! Benoit gritted his teeth and said, "No, I don't want to bother Mrs. Clifton to help find a husband for my wife. Queenie and I have registered in the City Hall, and now we are in a legal relationship for a husband and wife."
"Ah!" Karel cried out.
She had always liked Queenie, and the reason why she didn't try to make Queenie her daughter-in-law was that she had morality.
However, it hadn't crossed her mind that the lamed Benoit would marry Queenie!
Karel pouted, looked at Benoit again in disgust, and complained to Queenie in a whisper.
"Honey, you are such a beautiful flower, why did you choose the lamed Benoit, the horrible wolf!
"He is not some good person with evil in his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys..."
Before Karel finished speaking, Benoit interrupted coldly. "Mrs. Clifton, it may not be appropriate to keep calling me the lamed Benoit in the presence of my newlywed wife."
"How come it is not appropriate? Isn't your leg disabled? You want me to shut up, you'd better stand up and walk." Karel answered seriously.
Benoit was speechless.
Manley also couldn't say no to it.
Macy was frozen.
Queenie couldn't help laughing secretly.
"My sweetheart Queenie! Why don't you think about it again? I heard some grapevine from Frank that Benoit is not doing well now. Bad things have happened like robbed businesses and docks. What's it with a man running out of money and power?"
"Sorry, Mr. Clancy, I have given it much thought." Queenie walked behind Benoit, putting her hands gently on Benoit's shoulders. "My husband treats me very well. It doesn't matter if he has more money or less, as long as it is enough."
After speaking, Queenie looked at Lilith again. "After all, I still have to thank you for feeding me that cup of milk with added mysterious ingredients. Otherwise, I wouldn't marry Benoit and be so happy now."
Karel caught the point right away, and looked at Lilith in surprise. "Damn it, are you so mean to this to drug Queenie?"
But immediately Karel also felt a little embarrassed and tried to smooth things over. "Lilith, you know, I haven't installed a faucet in my mouth, so the words just came out as it liked. Don't take it to heart."
Lilith's face became even more stiff.
But just after the words were finished, Karel became upset again, and stomped her feet. "No! Lilith, you are not kind! You kind of fucking sabotaged your own daughter-in-law, that is not a human's deed!
"Also, I remember your son likes Queenie very much. When he comes back, how do you explain the heartless and inhuman thing you did?
"The worse thing is that if the marriage between your son and Queenie doesn't satisfy you, you can play this trick on my son! How come you not find out that I enjoy Queenie being my daughter-in-law after having so many meals with you? The one in the trap you set up should be my son! Why do you care about me so little?"
After being teased by Karel's fabulously tactical tongue, Lilith only felt that there were countless hands in the air, and they slapped her countless times!
Anger and hatred aroused in Lilith.
''How dare you Karel make fun of me in front of so many ladies!
Especially when they are all gossipers! What nasty and filthy sentences would come out of their unclean mouths back in their homes! Do you really think about it?'
But she could do nothing with Karel, the wife of the President of Coast City Commercial Chamber.
Lilith was so angry that her teeth itched, the only person who she could take it out on without worry was Queenie. "Queenie, no more thanks. At first, I am so worried about you having a tough marital life with Benoit's crippled leg."
Before the words were finished, Karel said bluntly, "What's wrong with this crippled leg? It is perfect except it cannot jump around! With your son dedicated himself to archaeology and disappearing from time to time, I used to worry that Queenie would be a widow whose husband is still alive in the marriage!"
"Exactly!" It was the first time that someone felt the same way as Macy did, so she spoke in a supportive way, "Although Mr. Clancy is not a good walker, the least he can do is to escort Queenie while having three meals in a day, from warm spring to freezing winter!"
Benoit raised his eyes lightly, looked at the two, and said calmly, "Thank you, ladies."
Karel and Macy said in unison without prior agreement, "You're welcome!"
Nice people wouldn't stop mentioning his crippled leg to defend him!
Manley's eyeballs almost popped out.
It was the first time Benoit had no other choice but to let people get away with mentioning his disability.
Wow, these two women had some wits and guts.
Manley couldn't help feeling great about it but still had to show fake anger.
Queenie would not stop the fight stirred up by Lilith with so many supports.
"Yeah, Lilith, I am so grateful for what you have done to me. I will never know the deep harm of marrying Pollard without the persons being compared. Thank you, really. Now I feel so happy being with Mr. Clancy."
This was the truth, and Queenie deliberately said them to Lilith.
Because Lilith cared most and was most proud of her son.
The way to kill a snake was to hit its heart and vice versa, to hurt a person was to attack the point she cared most about.
As expected, Lilith exploded when she heard this!
"Queenie Lorente, what do you mean! Are you saying that my precious son is not as good as the crippled Benoit?"
Lilith was so angry that her heart beat irregularly, and she lost her composure.
Anyone who didn't know Pollard could say that her son was not good.
That was because they didn't know Pollard well enough.
But Queenie was the only one who couldn't say it!
Because Queenie had been in a relationship with Pollard for three years which was long enough to know him!
In Lilith's eyes, Queenie deserved to beg for Pollard's love for the rest of her life. An intoxicating dream haunted Lilith that depressed Queenie, stayed by the side of disabled Benoit, and would not stop missing her son's goodness!
But Lilith didn't expect that Queenie would change so dramatically and say such a thing after just a few days!
How could she bear this?
Queenie admired Lilith's gaffe, and smiled. "It seems that Lilith didn't take her English classes seriously when she was young, and her comprehension ability is a bit poor. Don't you understand what we are saying?"
Then Queenie lightly pecked Benoit's face in front of Lilith.
"I just said, thank you, I am very happy now."
But this happiness burned Lilith severely, and she lost her composure and screamed.
"No! It's absolutely impossible!"
Karel rolled her eyes in dislike when she saw Lilith's misbehavior.
"Lilith! You frame Queenie to stop her from pursuing her happiness! This makes you eviler than Benoit!
"Evil lamed Benoit. I'm totally right, aren't I?"
