Chapter 480 She Did Not Want To Be The Villain **Finished
This time, Lancelot was quite polite. He even respectfully addressed Isabella as his sister-in-law and proactively apologized to Alexander and Isabella for the earlier confrontation.
Even though he wasn't sincere because he still felt that Isabella was deliberately making things difficult for Yasmine, his manners were still acceptable.
It seemed that Greta had indeed taught him well. It was just unexpected that his heart had strayed along the way
Children often harbored resentment toward those who were stricter with them and invested more in their future. They might even question the intentions of these individuals. While it's undeniable that some parents might have ulterior motives, the majority were simply driven by their concern about whether their children could withstand future risks.
The reason Greta was so strict with Lancelot was due to the discord in the Zimmer family. Having the Quirk family as his support, Lancelot was seen as a thorn in the flesh in many people's sides. He had to excel in order to stand firm, and thus, Greta wouldn't allow him to indulge in pleasures at such a young
age.
However, Yasmine cleverly found loopholes within Greta's strict rules, showing his concern for him, bringing him benefits, and helping him escape various situations. Therefore, he felt closer to Yasmine.
If Lancelot blamed Greta for that, did that mean Yasmine was truly that good at pretending? Greta hadn't even discovered Yasmine's true colors, merely thinking that she was soft-hearted and possessed the innocence of a child in need of guidance. One could only say that Yasmine's ability to completely charm this family of three was truly impressive.
Among them, Christopher was undoubtedly the most hot-tempered. They saw each other every year at the Quirk estate, so they were quite familiar. Thus, he was the first to speak up. "I've never seen you siding with an outsider before. Now you're backing up the mistress and your father. Have you lost your mind?"
Lancelot was not particularly reserved with Christopher, so he retorted, "Don't look at me like that. You don't know the full story. Let me ask you this, what will you do if you are married and then meet your soulmate? What if this soulmate is kind-hearted and has no intention of breaking up your family, but is willing to die for you in times of danger? Can you guarantee that you won't be moved?"
This assumption left many in the room stunned. They listened to him intently.
"Moreover, I believe my father did take responsibility. When he realized he couldn't separate from the other woman, he bravely faced the consequences. The Zimmer family didn't want him to divorce, and the other woman didn't demand it either. But he didn't want to burden my mom, and he wanted to give the other woman a proper explanation. Hasn't he done enough by doing this? I won't deny that my mother was wronged, but I can also understand his hardship. If you were in his shoes, could you have done any better? Lancelot spoke with such conviction that everyone else was momentarily swayed by his words.
Only Alexander and his family showed disdain on their faces. If they hadn't heard Isabella's inner thoughts, they would hardly believe this young man could be so eloquent. While he didn't exactly twist the truth, he did manage to downplay Greta's efforts and glorify the adulterous man and woman.
"All I know is that if I am to marry someone it will definitely he comenne I love If I'm in love I won't he

looking around for some so-called soulmate. My eyes will be fixated on my wife. How can you meet another soulmate if you're not looking around? What a joke," Christopher retorted. Lancelot's face stiffened. He was upset.
"I feel that if one truly has a kind heart, they won't fall for someone else's husband," Rosalie couldn't help but say.
"It was odd enough that she was rushing to intervene with someone else's husband's affairs. Doesn't it just show how overly capable she thinks she is? Just like the elders used to say, is she absolutely certain she can save him? If not, isn't she just letting herself..." Evian held back in her speech.
Eula was the first to continue. "She's letting herself be promiscuous."
"Can you guys... please be a bit more considerate with your words?" Lancelot was becoming increasingly exasperated, feeling that these people must not have seen Yasmine's pitiful, tormented expression. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so quick to judge with malice. "Let's talk logically then. Your father wasn't responsible at all. Your mother found out about his affair, and that's what caused the divorce. If she hadn't discovered it, do you think your father would have divorced her?" Lancelot was taken aback. He struggled to keep his emotions in check.
In truth, he was the first to rush to the hospital back then. At that time, Niel promised to provide Yasmine with a home, but Yasmine adamantly refused. She said she couldn't hurt Greta, nor could she destroy their family. She didn't want to be the villain, and all she wanted was to be by Niel's side.
