Chapter 561
Graciana's eyes were red. She lowered her head and apologized. "I'm sorry..."
Eliza quickly grabbed Graciana's shoulder and looked at Lyric. "Lyric, that's not the case. Graciana is already very responsible. She..."
"Don't talk!"
Lyric glared fiercely at Eliza.
Eliza, "..."
"I know you're protective of her, but is it really good for her if you do this?"
"Let's not talk about how many things you've encountered during this period of time and how you've been scolded. There are two posts in the forum that are cursing you under which there are over 100,000 messages! Do you all know how fiercely they're cursing?"
"Don't think you're so popular right now! With Beau backing you up, do you really think everything is going well? Do you really think you're a queen, that you can just simply hit people? You can settle everything, right? Do you really think that the entertainment industry is so easy to get along with? You can do whatever you want, right?"
Eliza had never seen Lyric so angry before, and she was stunned for a moment.
The others also looked at each other and did not dare to speak.
Beau frowned. He couldn't bear to scold Eliza like this. How could Lyric dare to do that?
"Of course she can," Beau said. "She can do anything she wants. I'll help her clear the obstacles."
Lyric sneered. "Stop boasting."
Beau, "..."
"If she wasn't smart enough to fight, she would've been bullied to death by Gabriel before Beau could save her!"
"There's also Hollie and Gellert. They've been missing for a long time. Do you think they'll give up so easily?" Lyric glared at Beau. "Not to mention Corrine and Johnson. Because she's your wife, she's been excluded and criticized by so many people!"
"Do you think you're her savior? On the contrary, you might as well say that you're her biggest obstacle!"
"Lyric!" Eliza frowned and felt that Lyric had gone too far.
She patted the back of Beau's hand comfortingly, indicating that he should not take it to heart.
"I have a lot of dirt on me, so it has nothing to do with Beau. Those who look down on me, whether I am Beau's wife or not, will continue to look down on me. And..."
How could she say that Beau had failed to protect her? If not for Beau, she wouldn't have the courage to expose Gabriel's evil deeds.
Beau had also built her a film team to help her design the script and fully support her work. How could it become an obstacle?
"And what's more! Don't you have the strength? If it wasn't for Mrs. Valentine, can't you get a good result from the talent show? With your acting skills and analysis of scripts, can't you get good scripts on your own?"
"Without Beau, would the Chapman family not be able to support you?"
Eliza, "This is two different things. Sister Lyric, I know that I did something wrong. You criticize me, but the others..."
"Now I've become that wicked person instead?" Lyric snorted. "Alright, it's my fault for meddling in other people's business, okay?"
She threw down the things in her hands and got up to leave the lounge.
The scene was silent.
Eliza felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She stood up and said, "She may not be in a good mood. Don't take it to heart. I'll go and see her."
Beau reached out and grabbed Eliza.
Eliza looked down at him.
"Go ahead. Don't let yourself be wronged."
"Don't worry. She's doing this for my own good. She won't let me suffer."
Eliza squeezed out a smile and chased after her.
Looking at the backs of Lyric and Eliza leaving one after another, Graciana lowered her head and burst into tears.
She said in annoyance, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
If she hadn't caused so much trouble, Lyric wouldn't have been so angry.
She was indeed a disaster. She would constantly bring trouble to the people around her.
Roseane sat down beside Graciana, reached out to hug her shoulder, and comforted her softly, "Don't think too much. Lyric didn't mean to hurt you. Besides, you are also a victim. You can't be blamed for everything."
Graciana shook her head and choked with sobs.
Roseane comforted Graciana while helplessly looking at Matthew.
Matthew silently took out a tissue from Roseane's bag and handed it over.
Roseane took it and helped Graciana wipe her tears.
Matthew cleared his throat, moved closer to Beau, and whispered, "Uncle, you were so fierce just now."
Beau rolled his eyes at him.
"Regardless, Lyric can be considered a member of Aunt's family. She only said those words that hurt her heart because she treated Aunt as her own family. In fact, she was doing it for Aunt's good. At this time, you could have just listened. Isn't talking back adding fuel to the flames?"
No wonder Lyric was so angry.
Now that everyone was embarrassed, the atmosphere was really awkward.
Beau frowned slightly. "But she bad mouthed Eliza."
"It's not that she bad mouthed Eliza. She's just worried about Eliza." Roseane added, "Just like Xander and I, if I did something to make him worried, he would also hate me for not being able to live up to his expectations."
Xander touched his nose speechlessly. "Normally sisters would worry about their brothers. Why is it the other way around when it comes to me?"
Roseane smiled. "There's nothing I can do. Xander is better than me."
Xander's expression was terrible, but he was very pleased in his heart.
Matthew bumped into Beau's shoulder and said, "Did you see that? In that case, as long as Aunt said something nice, everything could be over. But you insisted on arguing with others. No one has an out now, right?"
Beau, "..."
Matthew patted Beau on the shoulder and said, "Don't think that you're powerful in the business world, but you still have to learn from me when dealing with household affairs."
Beau agreed with Matthew in his heart, but he gave Matthew a sidelong glance.
"Why are you kissing up to your wife's family?"
"What do you mean by kiss up? That's the respect I should have for my father-in-law and mother-in-law! If they hadn't painstakingly raised Roseane, I wouldn't have found such a good wife."
Beau's face was expressionless. "They haven't even raised Eliza for a few days."
Letting Eliza stray outside, and letting her get bullied by Esme's family.
When Eliza had first married him, she had sustained injuries from one or two scenes. He still remembered that.
Matthew shrugged helplessly. "This was all caused by Nyree. The Chapman family didn't want it either."
Beau clicked his tongue. "Alright, I got it. You should worry more about your own matters. After Roseane returns to the entertainment industry, she has so many fans. You have to keep an eye on her."
Matthew understood what he meant.
"Don't worry. I've arranged everything. I will announce it in a few days."
While comforting Graciana, Roseane took time to listen to their conversation. She asked curiously, "Announce what?"
Matthew blinked and said, "It's nothing. It's a surprise. You'll know soon."
