Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 128

In the evening, at the dinning table in the manor.

A table of delicious food was placed in front of everyone. Lily, Andrew, Kerr, and Tina sat around the table.

Kerr raised his glass first. "Guys, let's drink a toast. Hope Andrew will succeed tomorrow."

"Yes, we have to celebrate in advance." Tina raised her glass too.

Seeing this, Lily didn't know what to say. She also raised the glass, looking sideways at Andrew. During this period of time, Andrew lost a lot of weight, and even the stubble grew out. It was hard to say anything.

It was time to sign the contract with AF Company tomorrow, but she hadn't got any news from Hailey. She had planned to take Eric with her tonight, but he was called over by Ellison, who said that he had something to discuss with him, so she had to let him go.

"Yes, we'll be successful tomorrow." "Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

The four people's cups collided, and a crisp and pleasant sound came out.

They took a sip of each and then put down the glasses. Andrew turned to look at Lily and asked with concern, "Lily, you look unhappy."

"Really? I don't think so." Lily forced a smile and said, "Brother Andrew, you are going to sign the contract tomorrow. Why am I not happy?"

To tell the truth, what she said was really against her will. Even she was disgusted.

"Andrew, don't wrong Lily." He looked at his son and said, "She has a lot of things to deal with these days. Seeing that you are busy, she didn't tell you."

"What happened?" Andrew asked with concern. Since last time he attended Angus's banquet, he had plunged into his office. These days he had been living a life that he barely heard anything.

"Nothing important. I'll tell you about it tomorrow." Lily didn't plan to tell him.

"Yes, yes. Tell you about it tomorrow." Then, Kerr picked up a piece of the meat that Andrew liked the most and put it into his bowl, "This is made by Tina for you. Have some more food and have a good sleep. Tomorrow you will sign a contract with full energy."

"Okay." Andrew smiled and stopped asking.

"Lily, help yourself." With that, he put another piece of chicken into Lily's bowl.

"Thank you, uncle Kerr." Lily said with a smile.

"Don't be so courteous." He then picked up the empty bowl in front of Tina and filled a bowl of soup for her. It was her eating habit. She liked to have a bowl of soup before dinner.

He put it in front of her and said, "Be careful, it's a little hot."

"Yes." Tina nodded with shyness. Although it had been a long time since she received the care from him, she was still not used to it. Every time she told him that it was not necessary to do so, he would not listen to her every time. Therefore, she gradually accepted him.

"Oh, I have something to tell you." He looked at them and said.

Hearing his words, both of them looked up at him at the same time, waiting for his next move.

Of course, Tina knew what he meant. She turned her head to look at Kerr, and he also looked at her. They looked at each other and then instantly separated.

"I divided 20% of the shares of the company for Lily." After saying that, he glanced at Andrew, then at Lily, trying to figure out what was going on between them.

"What?" Andrew showed no surprise, while Lily stood up from the chair in surprise. She stood up so quickly that she touched the glass and smudged her clothes with the red wine.

"Watch out!" However, Andrew, who was the nearest to her, quickly reached out his hand to hold the glass. Then he looked at her and asked, "Are you okay? Your clothes got dirty. How about changing first?"

"Nothing." Lily shook her head. She didn't care about Andrew. Her eyes were fixed on Kerr. "Uncle, why did you do that? And when did this happen? Why didn't you discuss with us?"

Hearing all the questions from Lily, Kerr calmly said, "Sit down please and listen to my explanation."

After taking a deep breath, Lily sat down and said, "Uncle Kerr, can you tell me now?"

"I told you, don't worry, don't be angry and calm down." He knew that she was irritable.

"I didn't tell you about it in advance, nor did I tell Andrew. I chose to tell you about it tonight because of some reason," Then he turned to look at Andrew and asked, "Andrew, will you blame me?"

Andrew didn't seem to care much about it, as if it was not a big deal. He glanced at him and said, "Shares are not important."

Hearing his son's words, Kerr felt relieved. Since his son said nothing, he was relieved.

Then he turned to Lily again and continued, "I did it because I promised Mr. Wayne, so I have to make it, so I didn't have time to discuss it with you. Yesterday, I asked the lawyer to draft the papers. Today, I went to see Mr. Wayne and talked about it, and he also agreed, basically agreeing to your marriage."

"Uncle Kerr!" Lily stood up again and asked, "Do you do this for me and Eric?"

"Please sit down first. Calm down and calm down." Kerr stood up and walked to her. He put his hands on her shoulders and made her sit down. "Eric is against me too. But since I have said this to Mr. Wayne, I should do it. You know his temper. Eric has been pissed off by him. I can do nothing for you. Only in this way can I live up to my identity as a father."

Angry? Or mad? Lily couldn't do it, and she also knew that she had no right to be angry. He had done so many things for her mother. Why should she do this to him?

No, she had no right.

Lily's eyes turned red. It was not easy for her and Eric to be together so far. And now, because of Wayne's opposition, they had to use external force to urge to gain recognition.

"Lily..." Seeing Lily's eyes getting red, Kerr couldn't tell what she was thinking. He looked at her in a daze.

Seeing this, Tina also joined to persuade them, "Lily, I know you are not feeling good, but Uncle Kerr did this for your good, you..."

"I know, mom." Lily interrupted her and said, "I'm not angry or sad. I'm just moved."

She stood up and hugged him, "Thank you, uncle Kerr. Thank you for doing so much for us."

"Nothing. It's what I should do." Hearing her words, Kerr finally felt relieved. He turned to Lily and said, "As long as you live happily in the future, all that uncle Kerr has done is worth it."

"We will be together forever." Lily tried to prove it.

Seeing this scene, somehow, a little tears welled up in Tina's eyes. Kerr had done too much for Lily, he did much better than Dillon.

Andrew had been watching this silently all the time. When he heard what they said, he frowned and asked, "Whom do you agree that Lily is with?"

Lily let go of Kerr, wiped her eyes, turned around and looked at Andrew with a forced smile. "Brother, I haven't had the time to tell you that mom and uncle Kerr have agreed that I can be with Eric."

Upon hearing this, Andrew's face darkened. He turned to look at Tina and Kerr, "She is still young. How could you allow her to date boys?"

"Andrew, you knew long ago that Lily liked Eric, didn't you? Besides, Eric really loves Lily. As her brother, you should be happy about it." Said Kerr.

"It's too rash of you to do that." Andrew said, with a mixed feeling in his heart. He stretched out his hand and pulled his collar. He had known that Eric liked Lily, but he hadn't expected that they agree them to be together. It was totally beyond his expectation!

"Brother, I didn't expect you to oppose me being with Eric," There was a flash of disappointment in Lily's eyes. She lowered her head.

Seeing her behave like this, he felt even worse. He felt a bit frustrated, a bit annoyed, and a sense of loss. His heart seemed to have collapsed. This kind of feeling was really hard to describe.

"I'm full. You go ahead." After saying that, he stood up and directly went upstairs to his own room without looking back.

Watching him going upstairs, Kerr and Tina looked at each other tacitly. The former seemed to understand their son's mood, while the latter looked confused.

Lily was also confused. She didn't know why he was so angry. Perhaps she hadn't told him about it before?

A complex expression flashed in Kerr's eyes. Although he helped Lily and Eric, he seemed to have turned his son into a way that had ended before it began.

"Enjoy your meal. I'll go upstairs to see him." He said to Tina and Lily.

"Okay." Tina nodded. She didn't know why Andrew was angry, but she thought it was better for his father to comfort him.

Lily nodded and agreed. But when Kerr was going upstairs, she said, "Uncle Kerr, please tell him that I'll go with him tomorrow when he sign the contract with AF."

"Okay." Nodding, he turned around and went upstairs.

The reason why Lily said so was that if Hailey still couldn't find the evidence tomorrow, the fraud would continue, and it would be as same as before, causing many people to be cheated. She went to tomorrow just in case, and took action according to circumstances. Anyway, she couldn't get Andrew involved.
