Chapter 378: Wishing for a New Addition in Their Family
Smiling faintly at Old Madam Xu, Calix replied, "Leslie doesn’t want any of their dirty assets."
Calix and Leslie had discussed this topic once. She made it clear how much she refused to get the Li family’s assets under her name. The thought of it disgusted her.
"I can work to get my own money. I don’t need their properties."
Understanding the depth of Leslie’s contempt toward the Li family, Calix supported her decision. Following her words, he only focused on causing trouble for them.
Whether the authorities seized their properties during the investigations or not, he wouldn’t care about it. Even if they got kicked out of the streets.
The possibility was not high but, Calix and Leslie would only help Irene if it indeed happened. The rest of the Li family could try begging their relatives and friends.
Old Madam Xu tilted her head, seeing the worry swirling in Calix’s softened gaze. Andrian and Vernon were still in silence, letting the grandmother and grandson talk between themselves.
"My old eyes can tell you’re genuinely concerned about Leslie, Calix."
"...pardon?"
Baffled by the sudden change of topic, Calix stared blankly at Old Madam Xu. No other words came out of his mouth.
Calix saw Old Madam Xu curling her lips into a satisfied smile. A delightful twinkle shone in her eyes, followed by chuckles slipping between her lips.
