After listening to Veronica's story, Lexy kicked the table, stood up, took Veronica's hand, and said, "Come on, let's tell Finley. Let him do it for you."
Veronica shook her head bitterly and said, "It's useless. Grandfather only cares about the family's interests. The Lawton Family is already stronger than our family. Grandpa won't get into trouble with the Lawton Family."
Hearing that, Lexy suddenly felt sad. She bowed her head in despair.
For Veronica's sake, Finley would not look for trouble for the Lawton Family. Should Veronica be hurt?
"Besides, Bryce already defended me. He broke Mike's arms and legs," Veronica added.
Lexy's eyes sparkled with surprise, and finally, she smiled. After a while, she said, "I didn't think my son-in-law could be useful. "
This was the first time she praised Bryce.

However, you are too arrogant."I know you're good at fighting. What's the point? You're amazing in the eyes of ordinary people. However, to some great people, you're just a clown. Do you know what I've done to fix the problems you've caused? You would never be able to live here if it wasn't for me.""Anthony is from the Jaxon Family.
