Chapter 1274: Chapter 1277: His Title of ‘Wife-protecting Maniac’ Isn’t for Nothing Chapter 1274: Chapter 1277: His Title of ‘Wife-protecting Maniac’ Isn’t for Nothing “Europe, surveillance aircraft?!”

Lily almost felt dizzy from the sudden news.

Dear Daddy, isn’t this a bit too much?

For just a Wendy Jenkins, is it worth dispatching a surveillance aircraft? This is a big matter that concerns the diplomatic relations between two countries, how can this be taken so lightly!

Lily silently criticized her Daddy, unaware that if Duke Redington were here, he would tell her.

He did this not for Wendy Jenkins, but for his own wife, his own daughter.

They were both his treasures, his darlings, the most precious things in Chris Redington’s life.

He could be insulted, and his son could be insulted, but his wife and daughter absolutely could not be ridiculed at will.

The current world situation was built up after a world war.

In Eastonia, a presidential-parliamentary system was implemented, with the President, along with the Cabinet, Parliament, and Military Department forming a tripartite balance.

And many powerful families mostly held sway over the key departments with real power in Eastonia.

Unlike Eastonia, Europe had been integrated for hundreds of years.

Even after waging wars, the whole of Europe remained tightly connected afterwards.

The Reddington family, as an old European family, naturally had influence spanning across major political and military departments in Europe, further supported by the powerful ally, the Borkin family.

Upon learning that his wife and daughter were maligned, Duke Redington immediately dispatched a forward task force to put pressure on Eastonia, expressing his dissatisfaction.

Lily rushed back to the Main Hall and saw the television already turned on, broadcasting breaking news.

“Currently, Duke Redington has made a formal protest to our Foreign Affairs Department. He stated that the earlier surveillance aircraft was just a precursor, and if Eastonia does not give a proper explanation to the Duchess and young Miss of Redington, he would not hesitate to wage war to seek justice for his wife and daughter. At the moment, the Cabinet and Military Department are convening an emergency meeting regarding this matter, and it is believed that results will soon follow.”

“Mommy, Mommy, is the Duke Redington mentioned in the news the same as Grandfather?” Lulu had also seen the news, and was thrilled to hear her grandfather’s noble title. She hadn’t seen her grandfather for so long.

“Uh…” Lily was embarrassed, probably Lulu didn’t understand anything from the news except the words ‘Duke Redington’.

Lily picked up Lulu who was at her feet, gave her a kiss, and said, “Yes, that’s Grandfather.”

Ben Lucas, listening to Lily’s words, silently criticized, “Grandfather… really knows how to make a scene.”

“Making a scene, making a scene; ‘causing a ruckus’ is Grandfather’s motto. Ben, do you know what nickname our Grandfather has in Europe?”

Abbie asked mysteriously.

Ben Lucas casually glanced over, “Call me brother.”

“…” Abbie was left speechless for a moment before reluctantly correcting herself, “Okay, brother.”

“Good, continue.”

Abbie, unable to compete with Ben, grudgingly said, “Our Grandfather’s nickname in Europe is ‘Wife-protecting Maniac.’ Those villains really stirred up a hornet’s nest this time.”

Messing with someone was bad enough, but they had to go after Sylvia Scott and Noah Ford’s past.

How could that petty and jealous Duke Redington tolerate this?

It looked like the nickname of Duke Redington, the wife-protecting maniac, was going to spread from Europe to Eastonia now.

“No way, I’ve got to call Grandfather!”

Lily put Lulu down and hurried to the study room.

The phone had only rung twice before it was picked up by the person on the other end.

“Baby, you’ve finally decided to call Daddy. Is my darling being bullied, has that Old Hag Wendy Jenkins harassed you? Don’t be scared, sweetheart, Daddy will be there soon.”
