Chapter 90 Jealousy.

These sour words were spoken quietly and obscurely. Lu Xia did not hear them, nor did he pay attention to these descendants of the Rafaeld family.

The purpose of her visit today was just to bring Smellian to visit Mrs. Rafaeld, and the others were not the main targets.

Lu Xia smiled and asked Smelian to present the gift he brought with him. "I should have brought Smelian back earlier, but I've been so busy lately. I hope you don't mind."

"Your Excellency the Duke, you are joking. It is a great honor for us that you can take the time to come to our Rafaeld family. Please come in. The food is ready. Let's eat and chat. These are Smellian's brothers and sisters. If they are free, we will ask them to come back and meet you and Smellian. I hope you don't mind."

"No, it's more lively with more people." Lu Xia glanced at the crowd and found that the Raffield family is indeed a family famous for its beauty. The whole family has very high looks.

Feeling Lu Xia's gaze, several single men in the crowd puffed out their chests unconsciously, thinking that if Duke Lu Xia could fall in love with Smellian, he would also like them. After all, they were not bad looking either.

However, Lu Xia didn't even glance at them, just glanced at them and followed Mrs. Raphaelde to the restaurant.

Looking at the table full of delicious food, you can tell that Mrs. Raphaelde has really put a lot of thought into today.

"I heard that Smelian is now the head of the hospital department, and I haven't had time to thank you yet." Mrs. Raphaeld said this on the surface, but she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, when will Lu Xia put this care on their family instead of Smelian?

"It's all Smelian's own ability. It has little to do with me. Please don't thank me." Lu Xia really didn't think that she had helped Smelian in this matter. If he didn't really have that ability, the dean wouldn't give her face and promote Smelian. Isn't that a disregard for life!
When Lu Xia talked about this with Mrs. Rafaeld, Smelian sat quietly beside Lu Xia, occasionally putting one or two dishes on her plate that she might like.

We remained silent throughout the whole process.

Halfway through the meal, Lu Xia and Mrs. Raffield finally started talking about transportation. Seeing them talking about business, the others at the table became a little restless: "Mother, Smellian hasn't been home for a long time. Can we chat with him?"

The male, who looked slightly older than Smellian, spoke up, and the others followed suit.

Mrs. Raphaelde did not answer directly, but looked at Lu Xia.

Lu Xia tilted his head to look at Smellian: "Do you want to go?"

Smellian knew that if he said he didn't want to, Lu Xia would refuse on his behalf. However, he didn't want Lu Xia to bother with such a small matter, so he nodded and said, "You guys can talk about business, we won't bother you."

Seeing that he looked normal, Lu Xia didn't think much about it. He just thought that they were brothers and really had something to talk about, so he let Smelian leave.

Seeing this, Mrs. Raffield smiled and said, "Don't worry, the relationship between the brothers is still good."

The brotherhood, which Mrs. Raffield considered a good one, was taken to the back yard shortly after Smellian went out with them.

Smelian looked at Chesterton, his eldest brother and a male gene-fusion member of the Raffield family. Lady Raffield had always wanted to sell him for a good price, so he had yet to find a female. At his side was his younger brother, Cherno, who hadn't yet reached adulthood, but whose gene fusion had failed twice. Like him, he was currently considered a "defective product," though he still had a chance before reaching adulthood.

At this time, he followed Chesterton timidly, with a look of trepidation on his face, as if he wanted to persuade Chesterton not to do this, but he didn't dare.

He looked embarrassed, but actually did nothing.

He was always like this. Smellian was used to it, so he ignored him and just looked at Chesterton: "What do you want to tell me?"

"Look at your smug face now. You think you are so proud of finding a female mistress like Duke Lu Xia, and you specially asked her to bring you back to show off. I don't know how you got down on your knees to beg for her." Chesterton's words were full of sarcasm, but under this sarcasm, he could not hide his strong jealousy.

Why should Smellian, a "defective" waste, be valued so much by Duke Luxia? What he wants to see is that Smellian lives an unhappy life in Duke Luxia's mansion, not see him happy.

As a gene fusionist, he has not yet enjoyed this treatment, so why should a waste like Smellian enjoy it first!
In his opinion, this is extremely unfair.

It was not the first day that Smellian had come into contact with Chesterton. As an older brother, he was good at putting on a show. In front of their mother, he always acted like a caring elder and loving younger brother, but in private he was extremely jealous.

"I want to say that His Excellency the Duke volunteered to take me home to visit his mother. You must be jealous to death." Smellian's expression did not change, but his words were like cold thorns that pierced Chesterton's heart and hurt his lungs.

"What did you say? Do you think you can talk to me like that just because you have Duke Lu Xia backing you up? Smelian, you're so brave! I want to see if His Excellency the Duke will punish you if he knows you disobeyed your brother. I heard that powerful female masters like them value family harmony and respect for the elders the most. Do you think she will send you to Xiongde College for further studies?" Chesterston had a mean look on his face. He stared at Smelian, trying to see panic on his calm face, but there was nothing.

Smellian's golden eyes were as cold and hard as metal: "Your jealous face is really ugly."

This short sentence made Chesterton's face darken. He has never been an emotionally stable person, and this sentence was enough to make him lose his composure.

Sure enough, the next second Chesterton reached out and grabbed Smellian's neck. As a gene fusionist, his physique had evolved when the gene fusion was successful.

The strength he exerted was definitely beyond the ability of Smelian to contend with. His action frightened Cheno, who was standing timidly beside him.

"Big brother, what are you doing? Let the second brother go! If mother sees you like this, she will punish you. The second brother has a female master now, you can't do this!"

"Shut up, idiot. I'm going to let him know how to talk to me today!" Chesterton's eyes were red, and he was ready to teach Smelian a lesson.

However, just as he was about to make a move, a voice suddenly came from behind: "How do you want my people to talk to you?"

Smelian put the scalpel in his hand back into his sleeve because his savior had arrived.
