Chapter 595 There was no way Olivia would not be afraid of meeting the parents. She was extremely nervous.
"Isabella, Jake said that Lotus Village was a very beautiful place. He also said that there was a forest behind the village, and there were many wild beasts in the forest.
"He also toldthat you raised a black panther there. You personally went up the mountain to defeat it and carried it back." Isabella didn’t know what to say.
She was instantly speechless. She was irked that Jake sold her out, thinking how could he tell Olivia about such a bizarre, surreal feat.
If Olivia told the rest of the family, she figured that she could no longer maintain her weak and timid image.
Although everyone in the family knew that she was not weak and was actually very strong, but... that was still far from the image of carrying a black panther home.
The former was a strong career woman, the Miraculous Doctor, a bug master, while the latter... was just that of a fierce woman! "What kind of a woman could beat a black panther into submission and then carry it back?" She thought.
Isabella could not help but wonder if her true colors were about to be exposed.
Just as Isabella was feeling conflicted, Ricky and Betty spoke excitedly.
The first to speak was actually Ricky. His eyes were sparkling as he said proudly, Aunt Ziana, that's right, that's right. Mom defeated Blacky and carried it back. However, Blacky is especially obedient and doesn't bite." It was rare for Ricky to get so chatty. At this moment, if he were to grow a tail, he would have definitely wagged it happily and quickly. He looked like he was all out to flaunt, that his mother was really amazing! Betty also said, "That's right, that's right. Blacky is especially obedient and sensible. It will look after our house and play with us. It's also good friends with Witty-Whitey. Unfortunately, Witty-Whitey is too timid. It doesn't even dare to be friends with Blacky. Witty-Whitey is really a coward!" Isabella remained silent.
Olivia said, "Witty-Whitey is the puppy your mother let you guys raise, right?" "Wow, Aunt Ziana, you even know this. Did Uncle Jake tell you all this?" Betty asked with blinking eyes.

Olivia nodded and said, "Yes." Betty was especially emotional. "Grandpa Vaughn was worried that Uncle Jake would be single. No one expected that in the blink of an eye, he actually got himself a wife. Aunt Ziana, Grandpa Vaughn will definitely be very grateful to you when he sees you." She sighed like a little adult, looking especially funny.
Isabella's eyes curved as she thought to herself. "What a good daughter!" She looked at Jake teasingly and said, That's right, Olivia. It's not easy for Jake to get out of singlehood. After all, not only is he very blunt and straight, but he also has a fiery temper. If he dares to not behave in the future, feel free to tell me. I'll help you deal with him." Jake's face darkened. He was confused and said, "Bella, did | offend you?" He was at a loss.
Isabella smiled with a very calm expression. "No." He found that "no" sounding ridiculous.
Looking at the sinister smile on Isabella's face, Jake could not help but reflect. However, no matter how he thought about it, he could not think of how he had offended Isabella.
"Bella, | didn't say much since | cin. | shouldn't have done anything that would offend you." He frowned slightly.
Isabella smiled. "That's right. You didn't offend me." Ricky, Betty, and Olivia widened their dark blue eyes and looked around curiously.
The smile on Isabella's face was quite scary.
Olivia also said, "Isabella, Jake really didn't say anything after he cin." "Yes, that's right. He didn't say anything, so I didn't do anything." Isabella smiled at her gently.
Olivia was a little confused. She felt that something was amiss.
At this moment, Betty suddenly exclaimed, "I know!" She quickly covered her mouth and her big watery eyes darted around.
Everyone turned to look at her.
Betty looked at Isabella guiltily and said, "Mom, Betty has let you down! Ricky has let you down too!" Ricky was slightly stunned. Then, he suddenly thought of something and his face stiffened.
Isabella suddenly had a very bad feeling.
Then, they heard Ricky say guiltily, "Mom, I'm sorry.and Betty told great-grandpa and great-grandma the secret of you defeating Blacky!" Isabella's scalp went numb.
Betty added weakly from the side, "great-grandpa and great-grandma went around bragging again. They said that you can defeat a leopard with one punch, send a tiger flying with one kick, and send a bear flying with a headbutt, that you're skind of giant and very powerful." Isabella was totally speechless.
That was just ridiculous! Jake was suddenly enlightened. He finally knew how he had offended Isabella.
He remembered that when Bella carried a black panther back, the Lotus Village's villagers were shocked. After that, Bella did not want anyone to mention any of her heroic deeds.
Although Bella was very strong, she was very careful about her image.
But at the moment... she did knock down a leopard with a single punch. That was a fact.
But, to send a tiger flying with a kick and a bear flying with a headbutt, those were simply just spreading rumors.
Jake thought about that scene and the corners of his mouth twitched. He almost burst out laughing, being unable to control himself.
Isabella was dumbfounded. She looked at her two children and asked, Did great-grandpa and great-grandma really say that?" The two children nodded in unison, their expressions exceptionally serious.

Isabella immediately wailed in her heart, lamenting the ruining of her image.
Most importantly, she wondered why did said great-grandparents go around bragging and making her out like she was sincredibly strong monster.
"Sending a tiger flying with a kick and a bear flying with a headbutt, why don’t they just brag aboutsending a dinosaur flying with a slap then? "Would there be elders who would ruin their granddaughter-in-law's image like that?" She thought.
She refused to accept this! She felt that the first family conflict since she joined the Lockwood family was about to erupt.
She broke down and asked, "Ricky, Betty. So now the whole family knows my secret, right?" The two children nodded and then shook their heads. Before Isabella could heave a sigh of relief, they began to count with their fingers. "Mr. Menter, Mr. Riley, Mr. Olson, and Mr. Wheeler... great-grandpa called our other great-grandpa before and told him about it. The other great-grandpa said that he wanted to go out and brag too!" Isabella felt like she had been struck by lighting.
Isabella could no longer maintain the fake smile on her face.
Jake's lips twitched.
Olivia covered her mouth and held back her laughter.
"So, is it a good thing that the Lockwood family's patriarch's wife is a Herculean monster?" Isabella never expected that her reputation would be ruined after she returned from a trip to Southeast Aelinne.
And the source...
Isabella looked at Betty and Ricky. She gritted her teeth and asked, "My dearies, why did you tell great-grandpa and great-grandma about this?" Ricky looked at his mother guiltily. Betty rubbed her hands and said shyly, We, we also wanted to brag!" Isabella was speechless.
