She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor-Chapter 258 - Waylon Lewiss Wife
Chapter 258: Chapter 258: Waylon Lewis’s Wife
“My mommy and daddy are the ones living together; could anyone possibly know my daddy better than my mommy?”
Vivia Fuller clenched the black suit in her hands tighter.
“That’s right, Vivia, I have to say, you can’t compare to Hope Williams, who lives with Waylon; what kind of clothes she buys for her husband is her own business.”
Vivia’s face changed color, “I’m just afraid that Miss Williams might buy something Brother Waylon doesn’t like.”
“That’s between Hope and Waylon; it’s none of your business either way.”
Vivia’s face turned even paler, holding the black suit in her hand, she was at a loss whether to keep it or put it down, and forced a smile on her stiff face, “I’ve overstepped.”
The sales clerk nearby couldn’t help but mutter to herself upon seeing this scene.
This woman was really too much, trying to question Hope buying clothes for her own husband.
It was too much.
Hope was very careful in her selection, considering the style, fabric, and size meticulously. It was her first time buying clothes for Waylon Lewis, and she was worried about getting the wrong size, making him uncomfortable.
But the main concern was still the style; Hope was indeed worried that Waylon might not like it, so she was even more careful.
Alitzel Williams watched Hope’s meticulous and slightly worried demeanor, knowing what she was thinking, and couldn’t help but laugh, “Whatever you choose, even if it’s a burlap sack, my son would cherish it.”
Hope, who felt her thoughts were seen through, smiled slightly, “Mom, you exaggerate too much.”
“I’m telling the truth. Why don’t you try buying that burlap sack and see.”
Hope raised an eyebrow, and actually, couldn’t help but imagine Waylon in a burlap sack.
The thought made Hope burst into laughter.
Thinking about Waylon’s stern handsome face coupled with a burlap sack was a pretty amusing image.
After picking and choosing, Hope selected two more outfits, three suits and pairs of pants in total. She was quite satisfied and planned to have Waylon try them on when he got back, her smile growing warmer at the thought.
“Just wrap up these three sets for me.”
“Of course, madam.”
Vivia stood by, watching Hope’s selections with a curl of her lip.
She had never seen Waylon wear these styles.
And they were so casual; there was no way Waylon would like them.
Only this woman would be satisfied with her own meddling choices, ignorant and yet stubbornly foolish.
The sales clerk packaged Hope’s clothes, completed the transaction, and the two little guys volunteered to carry the bags for Hope.
She had planned on choosing evening gowns, but with the two sisters following, Hope lost interest. Besides, there were already gowns at home; it was no big deal not to pick more.
Alitzel didn’t enjoy being with the two sisters either. When Hope mentioned going home, Alitzel readily agreed.
As they walked away, Mia Fuller approached Vivia and said coldly, “Weren’t you full of ideas? How come you can’t even outdo Hope’s son?”
Vivia bit her lip hard, clenched her fist, full of repressed frustration and humiliation.
Night fell.
Hope, in a silver-white mermaid dress, with its fitted design accentuating her perfect, tall figure.
Her styled hair was pulled back, revealing a graceful neck and delicate collarbones.
Her flawless face was lightly made up, clean and gentle.
The simple yet understated attire was still elegant, stunningly beautiful.
Alitzel’s eyes flickered with satisfaction as she gazed at Hope.
Indeed, beautiful and well-proportioned people do not need much adornment to be incomprehensibly exquisite.
Tonight, Alitzel dressed Luke and Willow in little suits and princess dresses, planning to take the two little ones with her.
She muttered to herself, “Let’s see who dares to say I don’t have grandchildren now.”
Hearing Alitzel’s muttering, Hope raised an eyebrow and smiled, shaking her head, letting Alitzel go on.
All the ladies and madams attending the evening banquet were from prominent and noble families, making for a grand scene with dresses swirling, toasts exchanged, and laughter mixing in the air.
Vivia, in a water-blue evening gown, and Mia in a light yellow dress, arrived early, elegantly holding champagne glasses and basking in everyone’s admiration.
The Fuller Family, despite their scandals, were second only to the Lewis Family in Emperor Capital City.
It was important for them to maintain appearances.
Even if no one admired Mia, Vivia was still there, the future head of the Fuller family.
“What have you been up to lately, Vivia? I wanted to go shopping with you, but couldn’t find you at all.”
“Yeah, Vivia, since you’ve been back we haven’t spent time together, you’re so busy we hardly see you.”
“Miss Fuller is different from you all. She is going to be the head of the Fuller Family; naturally, she has a lot of responsibilities, unlike you who have so much free time.”
“Miss Fuller works harder because she is capable. She will be the future family head. Look at all the daughters here; who can match Miss Fuller in both talent and beauty, and come from a family that knows how to nurture such traits?”
Amidst the ongoing compliments, Vivia’s smile grew brighter, but Mia clenched her teeth in a corner, unattended to and seething with hatred.
“Does Miss Fuller have any marriage prospects? My family…”
“What nonsense are you thinking? A toad lusting after swan meat? With her talents, Miss Fuller naturally needs to match with Emperor Capital City’s finest man, Young Master Lewis. Besides, the Fuller and Lewis families have been close for generations. Who could compete with the Fuller Family for such a perfect daughter-in-law as Miss Fuller?”
Vivia’s face changed unnaturally upon hearing their conversation.
Waylon Lewis’s marriage wasn’t public.
However, quite a few people knew that there was a woman by Waylon Lewis’s side, and they had even heard that Waylon Lewis already had two children, except they were illegitimate, whether it was true or false was unknown.
However, no one dared to casually inquire about news concerning the Lewis Family, so the current situation of the Lewis Family was unclear.
“Everybody, don’t talk nonsense… Brother Waylon and I are just friends…”
“There’s nothing now, but the future is uncertain. Miss Fuller, with your status, abilities, and looks, which woman could outshine you? You are truly the most suitable match for Young Master Lewis.”
This statement made Vivia Fuller raise her chin with approval. She had always thought so too; in her mind, no one was more fitting for Waylon Lewis than herself.
It was just unfortunate that Waylon Lewis had that shameless Hope Williams by his side, unfit to be presented in public.
Thinking this to herself, Vivia Fuller still wore a humble smile in front of everyone and said with a laugh.
“Everyone should stop saying things like that, there are always people better and skies beyond skies. There are plenty of people more outstanding than me…”
Before Vivia Fuller could finish speaking, the gazes of the few people in front had already been diverted, and they couldn’t help revealing looks of astonishment.
“Isn’t that Mrs. Lewis? Who’s the woman with her? She’s so beautiful.”
“Hey wait, why does that woman have two children with her…”
“My God, that little boy looks so much like Young Master Lewis, have I discovered something?”
“Let’s go over and take a look.”
The arrival of the prestigious Lewis Family’s Madam Lewis with a beautiful lady and two little ones immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
People couldn’t help crowding around to find out more.
Alitzel Williams greeted the oncoming people with skilled warmth.
Everyone’s gaze involuntarily first swept over Alitzel’s companions, Hope Williams, Luke, and Willow, with shocked expressions, and then turned to Alitzel Williams to exchange pleasantries.
“Mrs. Lewis, long time no see, you’re looking younger and more beautiful.”
Alitzel Williams smiled lightly, “Not at all, you guys are just joking.”
“Mrs. Lewis, who is this?”
Alitzel Williams immediately took Hope Williams’s hand and said, “Let me introduce you to my daughter-in-law, Hope Williams.”
As soon as she spoke, a wave of astonishment swept through the crowd.
Daughter-in-law!
Someone couldn’t help but nervously ask, “Mrs. Lewis, is she Young Master Lewis’s wife?”
Alitzel Williams found this question quite amusing, “Of course, she’s Waylon’s wife.”
Everyone was even more shocked.
She was actually Waylon Lewis’s wife.
They hadn’t expected things to progress so quickly.
Indeed, everyone knew that there was a woman with Waylon Lewis, but having a woman by his side was completely different from having a wife.
Waylon Lewis having a wife meant that they were married.
Alitzel Williams’s personal acknowledgment meant that the Lewis family had accepted her.
Heavens.
That meant other people truly had no chance at all.
In silence, countless hearts were shattering.
“Moreover, the wedding is set for next month, and you’re all welcome to come for the wedding feast,” Alitzel Williams said, laughing as she pulled on Hope Williams’s hand.
“So, these two little ones couldn’t be your grandchildren, could they?” a few society ladies asked, refusing to give up hope, their eyes on Alitzel Williams.
Alitzel Williams’s face remained smiling, an expression she couldn’t shake off. She nodded, “Exactly, their names are Luke and Willow, and they’re five and a half years old this year.”
It had long been said that Young Master Lewis had two illegitimate children; so it seemed it was these two.
But they clearly didn’t seem like illegitimate children at all. Whose illegitimate children could be brought out so openly without fear of ridicule?
But what surprised people even more, was that the wife of the Lewis family’s helmsman had not chosen Miss Fuller. Considering family background, the Fuller Family was most matched with the Lewis Family.
If they were to form an alliance through marriage, it would be a powerful union. But unexpectedly, it hadn’t happened, and instead, they had chosen a lady whose family was unknown to them.
It seemed that even a lady of great family stature couldn’t compare to this unknown lady in the eyes of the Lewis family.
So, what everyone had just said was indeed wrong, and the looks on people’s faces as they turned to Vivia Fuller inevitably changed.
Vivia Fuller clenched her glass tightly, her good mood instantly swept away, leaving her face dark with hatred as she watched this scene, maddened with rage.
The crowd surrounded Hope Williams and the two little ones, lavishing praise upon them.
“Young Madam Lewis is truly beautiful, and her demeanor is impeccable.”
“These two little ones are just too adorable. If I had grandkids this cute, I’d wake up laughing in the night.”
“Exactly, exactly, Mrs. Lewis is so fortunate that Young Master Lewis married such a beautiful wife. Whose daughter is she?”
Before Alitzel Williams could respond, an untimely scoff emerged.
Mia Fuller, already overshadowed by Vivia Fuller to the point where not a glimmer of light could shine through, upon witnessing Hope Williams’s dazzling presence, could no longer suppress the fury in her heart and briskly approached, her high heels clicking urgently.
