Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 48

One vegetable, one meal. Lily fed Eric alternately and she was also eating. They used the same pair of chopsticks during this time, but she did not care about it at all.

At the end of the meal, Lily picked up a piece of corn from the corn carrot and pork rib soup and fed Eric. However, Eric dodged it in disgust. "I don't eat corn."

What? Lily was stunned. "It's very delicious and nutritious."

"I don't want to eat." He looked at her and said in a firm tone.

She looked at him, and then looked at the corns she picked up. She thought for a while, and put the corns in her bowl. She then picked up the spareribs in the soup and fed it to Eric. "Then eat meat, you are picky in eating. You don't even eat corns."

"I don't eat corns, onion, lamb, shrimps or fish." Eric said a lot of food that he didn't like. "By the way, I don't like scallion… No matter what food, no count!"

Hearing that he mentioned so many foods, Lily looked at him in a daze. She couldn't imagine that a man was so picky about food!

Subconsciously, she took a look at the soup. Fortunately, there was no scallion in it, and there was no food he didn't like in the other two dishes.

"But I like all these you said." She was a little dissatisfied.

"It's okay. I can choose other dishes."

"Okay."

Lily didn't notice the conversation between the two at all, but Eric liked it, which was relaxed and warm.

She picked up a carrot and put it to his mouth. "You can't pick up the carrot, can you?"

This time, he didn't say anything and ate it directly.

"Luckily, you ate the carrot. Otherwise, I had to throw it away." She said to herself.

Eric understood what she meant. He smiled and found that she didn't eat carrots.

He ate the ribs and carrots, while she ate corn. After feeding him the soup, Lily stood up and packed the empty lunch box, then threw it out of the ward and into the trash can in the aisle.

When she finally finished it, Eric added, "There is a garbage can."

"There will be smell. I am afraid that you will feel uncomfortable with the smell." Lily replied naturally. Then she took a washbasin to get some warm water.

Eric felt warm in his heart when he heard her answer, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious. He had seen her being cruel, tender and scheming, but in his eyes, she was always innocent.

After Lily came back with warm water, she took off a towel at the head of his bed and started to clean his face, hands and neck.

Without saying a word, Eric just let her look after himself. He was curious about why she could take care of others so carefully?

After cleaning him, Lily put everything back in place, and then sat down by the bed. "I will leave the hospital tomorrow. My grandpa will pick me up."

"Ok." Eric felt disappointed but he concealed it well. He then asked, "Is there only your Grandpa coming to pick you up?"

"Yes." She forced a bitter smile on her face and said in a relaxed tone, "From now on, I'll go back to the old house with my grandfather. I don't have to see those disgusting people anymore."

"Well, that's good news." Eric also felt happy for her.

"My mother came to see me today." Lily added. Somehow, after they both fell off the cliff and were saved, she began to trust Eric. She wanted to share a lot with him.

"Your mother?" Hearing that, a tinge of surprise flashed across Eric's face. He had never heard her talk about her mother.

"Yes." Lily nodded and smiled happily. "I love her very much. I'm very happy that she came to see me today. She came with Uncle Kerr. They'll come to the hospital to pick me up tomorrow. I'll go to the police station together then."

He didn't know who the "uncle Kerr" was, but he got nervous when he heard the word police. "What are you going to do?"

"The manipulator is here. I've told uncle Kerr to take me to the police station tomorrow." Lily said honestly.

Hearing that the real murderer was caught, Eric breathed a sigh of relief. "Who is that person?"

"Victor." When she said this name, her eyes flashed with malice, as if she wanted to tear it into pieces.

When he heard the name, Eric couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect that Victor was so stubborn and even wanted to kill people!

He calmed down a little and asked, "Who is Kerr?"

"Well, the biggest school manager." Lily replied.

Was she acquainted with Kerr? When Kerr went to her ward this morning, he didn't look well. He said some official words to her, and also told her the details. Then he left.

"I didn't know until today that the director of the school knew my mother. They knew each other before I was born."

This night, Lily talked a lot with Eric, basically with a lot of interesting things that happened in childhood. She did not go back to her ward until she felt sleepy.

The next day, Lily woke up early in the morning. She had taken a day off, and the minor injuries on her body were basically no big deal. However, she still needed to apply medicine to the injured parts of her legs and the scratches on her neck. The neck was pinched so violently that it had been bruised. It would be better to apply medicine.

Since there were no clean clothes in the hospital, she could only do some simple washing and then change into a clean hospital gown.

After freshening up, the door was opened. Lily turned around and saw it was Tina and Kerr. She greeted them with a smile, "Mom, uncle Kerr, why are you here so early?"

"Your mother was worried about you and told me to come as soon as possible." As Kerr answered, he handed a delicate shopping bag to Lily. "Your mother went to the shopping mall and bought it for you last night. Go get changed first, and then come out to have breakfast."

Lily took the bag with a smile. "Thank you, uncle Kerr. Thank you, mom. I'm going to get changed." Then she turned around and walked into the bathroom.

Fortunately, there was a small washroom in the hospital.

It was not until Lily entered the bathroom that Tina did not say a word, but still with a smile on her face.

Kerr put a lunch box on the night stand. He took another from Tina's hand and put it on the table. Then he waved in front of her, "Tina, Lily is changing her clothes. Don't you come back to your senses?"

Hearing that, an unnatural expression flashed across her face. She had come to the hospital to see Lily yesterday. After she went back, she was in an excited state. Although she had encountered something unhappy, it did not affect her mood.

So after her left the hospital yesterday, she had dinner with Kerr. After that, she proposed to buy clothes for her daughter in the mall, and then she bought a lot of her daughter's favorite food. Early this morning, she got up and cooked her favorite porridge and chicken soup, which were good for her health.

After changing her clothes, Lily walked out of the bathroom, with her hair tousled on purpose. The simple and elegant pink dress made her look very beautiful. The dress was just in the length of her ankle, and the shoes on her feet were very comfortable. It was not difficult for her to walk.

"You look so beautiful." Tina walked to Lily with a smile and said, "My daughter looks pretty no matter what she wears."

"Mom, you are exaggerating." Lily said and felt embarrassed.

"My daughter is really beautiful!" Tina gave her a reproachful look, but her face darkened when she caught a glimpse of the bruises on Lily's neck. "If there was no bruise, my daughter would have been more beautiful."

"Come on, mom. Stop praising me. Uncle Kerr is watching." Lily looked at Kerr embarrassed while speaking.

"Why you feel embarrassed? Kerr selected the dress and shoes for you. He said your leg was injured and it was inconvenient to wear pants and short skirts, so he bought a long dress for you."

What?

Lily blinked. She didn't expect that Kerr was so careful. She looked at the two people and seemed to smell something different.

Knowing what she was going to say, Kerr was afraid that she would say something inappropriate. So he pointed at the two lunch boxes and changed the topic, "Have your breakfast first."

"Okay." Lily nodded with a smile. Then she asked, "Uncle Kerr, have you eaten with my mom?"

"Yes, I have. I brought these for you. Now eat them." It was Tina who answered. She grabbed Lily's hand and was about to sit down.

"Wait!" Suddenly, Lily got rid of Tina's hands, looked at the two lunch boxes and said, "I can't eat all by myself. I'll take the food to have it with Eric."

"Who is Eric?" Asked Tina subconsciously.

"The man who saved me."

"That's good. I'm going to have a look too. I should thank him."

Lily smiled and walked out of the ward with the lunch box, towards Eric's room, followed by Kerr silently.

When they arrived at the ward of Eric, a male doctor helped him out of the bathroom and carefully helped him to lie in bed. After that, the doctor left after he gave a few words to him.

Walking to the bedside, Lily put the thermos bottle down and asked, "How do you feel today?"

"Yes, a little better." Eric answered. He had a glimpse of the other two and knew who they were.

Seeing this, Lily walked to Tina, took her hand and said, "This is my mother. Do you think she is beautiful? And this is uncle Kerr. You know him."

Hearing that, Eric could not help but tease her, "Yes, she's very beautiful, but I believe that you will surpass her."

He couldn't help laughing when he saw Lily was so excited to introduce her mother. It seemed that he had never seen her be so excited and proud.
