Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 68

"Why do you mention her all of a sudden?" He dodged his eyes and didn't look at Lucia.

His reaction confirmed her suspicion. Her face darkened. "Do you still have feelings for her? Now you go to see her behind me?"

"Lucia!" Dillon called her name in a deep voice and subconsciously looked at Eden and Claire, "The children are all here. If you have anything to say, let's go back to our room after dinner."

"What? Do you dare to do it and dare not admit it in front of the children?" Ironically, Lucia retorted.

Dillon knew well about Lucia's personality. He didn't want to say it now, indeed. He didn't want his two children to know the story between him, Tina and Lucia.

When he met Tina in the hospital last time, he didn't mention it to her because he was afraid that things would turn out like this. He didn't expect that she still knew it.

Dillon's face darkened. "I didn't do anything shameful. My father was also there at that time. I didn't want to say it in front of the children, because I didn't want them to be affected by what happened among the adults."

Hearing this, Lucia didn't ask any more questions, but was in a bad mood. She put down her chopsticks, stood up directly and said, "I'll go back to the room and wait for your explanation."

Then she turned around and went upstairs.

Dillon was a little upset about this. He didn't have the mood to eat anything but said to the brother and sister, "Enjoy your meal. I'll go upstairs to have a look."

Then he went upstairs.

Seeing the two of them go upstairs one after the other, Eden frowned as if he was thinking about something.

However, Claire looked quite unhappy. "It's about Lily again. She made me unhappy or her mother made my parents unhappy. Will they stop until our family isn't peace?"

"Eat your food. Don't talk nonsense." Eden looked at her unpleasantly.

"Am I not right? You are just protecting them." Claire snorted.

He glanced at her but didn't say anything. He lowered his head and started to eat. He felt annoyed to tell his mother the things about Tina when he went to the hospital with his grandfather to see Lily.

The atmosphere in the bedroom was a little depressed. Lucia sat on the bed, crossed her hands, stared at him angrily and waited for his explanation.

The impatient Dillon untied his tie, took it off and threw it on the dresser. Then he walked towards Lucia and said, "I have no interest in Tina. If I have a crush on her, I won't agree to divorce her. And I married you under pressure."

"Huh." Lucia sneered and said, "if not, why didn't you tell me that you saw her?"

"I didn't say that. I just don't want you to think too much. I married you to let you live a carefree life, not to make you work for some trivial things all day. I owe you a lot in the first half of my life, and in the latter half of my life, I'll try my best to compensate you."

"It sounds good." After taking a look at Dillon, Lucia continued to satirize him, "who knows if you met each other in secret. At any rate, she is a beauty, and your ex-wife, and she still remembers your love in the past. You..."

"Lucia!" Dillon interrupted her impatiently, "don't make blind and disorderly conjectures, OK? I'm afraid that you're upset. She has been standing in the middle of us for sixteen years, which is the thorn in your heart, but I'm also upset. I've been able to hide myself from her. How can I have secret contact with her?"

"Really?" Asked Lucia in disbelief.

"No, I'm not!"

"Do you know where she lives?"

"I don't know."

Lucia frowned. She was relieved to hear his answer, but she didn't get the answer she wanted. Besides, Dillon didn't know where she lived.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Dillon thought she didn't believe him and continued, "Believe it or not, I really don't know where she lives. After I met her in the hospital, we broke up. After that, I haven't seen her since then."

Subconsciously, he didn't tell her that he was slapped by her in the hospital.

Hearing his words, Lucia looked at him and asked doubtfully, "What about your phone? Have you called her?"

"No, I didn't." Afraid that she wouldn't believe what he had said, he added seriously, "I promise, I have never called her before. What's more, I don't know her number either."

Lucia glanced at him from beginning to end and then said in a relaxed voice, "Okay, I trust you."

Hearing this, Dillon heaved a long sigh of relief. He walked over to hold Lucia, and rubbed his chin against her neck. Then, he said, "Don't think too much in the future. You are the only one in my heart. I have no choice at all before, now, and in the future. You also know how helpless I was when I was with her in the past. It was family business on one hand, and it was difficult for me to make a choice at the same time. If you are not so reasonable, let me choose to endure it. Maybe we are now a member of an ordinary family."

"It's good that you know what I've done for you," She hugged him and answered softly.

But Dillon didn't see, Lucia's face was dark and her eyes were gloomy. Although she knew that Tina had appeared, she didn't know where she was!

The little bitch, Lily, she hadn't got any useful information from her, and also failed to get any useful information from Dillon.

Tina, since you showed up when your daughter had an accident, it means that you are still very concerned about her. In that case…

I'd like to see how long you can escape from my attack!

That night, Lily tossed and turned restlessly. Although Tina was well protected by Kerr, Lucia wouldn't give up easily since she had appeared.

After much consideration, she finally decided to make a phone call. She took out the phone and dialed the number.

The phone was quickly connected.

"Hello, mom."

"Lily, this is uncle Kerr." It was Kerr.

"Where is my mom?" Lily got nervous all of a sudden.

"Don't worry. She has a low fever and just fell asleep."

"Okay." Lily felt relieved and asked, "Why did she catch a cold?"

"When she was looking after the roses in the manor, she wore a little cold," He lowered his voice and changed the topic, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Hearing his question, Lily got back to the point. Her expression became a little serious. "Lucia came to me today. She has been asking me about my mother's whereabouts. During this period, she will certainly try every means to find my mother. Uncle Kerr, please protect her well in this period. Try not to let her out of the manor if possible."

"Well, but it's not a good way to hide like this."

"I know, but I don't have the strength to protect her at present. She should hide."

"Ugh." On the other side of the phone, Kerr sighed, "I know what to do. Lily, although I don't quite understand some things, I can guess. As for the matter between Lucia and Tina, I hope you can tell me more details."

Holding the cellphone, Lily subconsciously bit her lips. She was silent for a while before saying, "Uncle Kerr, please give me some time to think about it, okay?"

"Okay, I'll wait until you want to say it."

"Yes."

After hanging up the phone, Lily couldn't fall asleep any more. Recently, Kerr had helped them a lot. He knew about the identity of Lucia, and when he mentioned her, he didn't avoid talking about her.

How could he not know what had happened between her mother and Lucia? He didn't ask her mother in person, but he was waiting for her to accept him.

He said that he would wait until she said it, and that he was giving her some time. He was doing this on the psychological battle. When she would tell him all these things willingly, it meant that she had accepted him and regarded him as a member of the family.

They were a family and they could share weal and woe together.

Lily didn't sleep well last night, so her brain was still a little messy when she got up to school the next day. It was not until Daniel sent her to school that her brain was a little clear.

Lily didn't focus on her lecture in the morning. The whole morning she was thinking about what happened last night and what she should do next.

She wanted to take revenge on those scumbags in her previous life, but the fact was that her strength was far from enough, and the path of revenge was still long.

When the school was over at noon, she didn't expect that Andrew would come and directly find her classroom.

He attracted a lot of attention as soon as he showed up. He was tall, handsome and sunny, which satisfied most of the girls.

"Brother Andrew, why are you here?" Lily looked at him in surprise.

"I'm here to pick you up."

"Pick me up?"

"Yes." "I'll take you to a place and meet a person."

Lily was even more confused. There was no one she knew in Andrew's circle of friends?

"Lily." At this moment, Becky, who had been silently watching Andrew, touched her arm and whispered in her ear, "Who is he?"

Hearing her words, Lily came to her senses and introduced to her, "Andrew, the son of the school director."

"When did you know him?" Becky felt surprised and asked Lily.

"Well..." Thinking for a while, Lily thought it was a long story, so she chose to be short-sighted, "He saved me last time when I had an accident."

"Okay." "Thank you for saving Lily," Becky added with a smile.

Hearing her words, Andrew couldn't help but turn to look at her, smiling. "I should save her."

Becky fluttered her eyelashes, and looked Andrew and Lily. She assumed that something must have happened between them.

Then, Andrew turned to Lily and said, "Let's go. You have to come back for class this afternoon."

"Okay." Even though she didn't know whom they were going to meet, Lily still agreed. She trusted in Andrew.
