Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 177

It was not until nearly dusk that Lily put away all the things she bought today. She even deliberately took time to buy some food in the supermarket of the community and put them in the fridge. After all the things were sorted out, the whole room was filled with the smell of home.

She also took a few photos and sent them to Eric, with a note saying, "I'll wait for you at home."

Since Eric didn't want her to worry about him, she had to do something to make him feel warm. She believed that he would be very happy to receive these photos.

Thinking of this, Lily took her bag and went back to the Qiao family's old house in a good mood.

However, to her surprise, when she returned to the Qiao family's old house, she saw Frank again. Oh, no, and his parents, Simon and Jade, and the helpless Richard.

Seeing them, Lily frowned slightly, and at the same time, there was a flash of mockery in her eyes. She was really tried to see Frank two times a day, but Frank knew how to arrange the time. He spent the morning with another woman, and now he was with Claire in the Qiao family. He was really a bad man. It couldn't be changed.

His parents were talking with Joe with a lot of smiles on their faces. Of course, beside them, there were Dillon and Lucia, but she didn't see Eden. Perhaps he was reading in the study.

"Lily." The first one who found her back was Richard. As soon as Lily entered the room, he stood up and walked to her, as if there was something urgent. He held her hand and looked at her with expectation. "Do you know where Eric and his mother have gone?"

Lily was stunned. Apparently, she didn't expect him to come over and grab her, but she calmed down the next moment.

"Uncle Richard, I don't know." She shook her head. In fact, she wanted to pretend that she knew nothing and ask him what had happened, but she didn't do that because Frank was there. After all, he had told her this morning when she met him.

"They didn't come to you?" Richard kept asking.

"No." Lily shook her head again.

"Then..." Richard was flustered, but he still didn't give up and asked, "Did Eric call or text you? And did your aunt contact you?"

Seeing that he was in such a hurry, Lily's heart softened for a moment. He should love Eric and aunt, otherwise why was he in such a hurry?

There was stubble on her chin, and her eyes were red and bloodshot. It was obvious that he didn't sleep well, or perhaps he didn't sleep at all.

But when she thought that he had a woman and an illegitimate child outside, she felt a little angry. If a man really loved his wife and son, he shouldn't have behaved outside!

What's more, he even took the mother and son back to the Gu family. How sad would it be for them?

Lily blamed all these on Richard, so her previous sympathy disappeared immediately.

"Uncle, Eric didn't call me these two days, and aunt didn't contact me either. I really don't know where they have gone."

Hearing this, Richard loosened his grip on Lily's arm and took a step back, looking dispirited. "How could this be..."

"Uncle, don't be too sad." At this time, Frank came over and held him. "The most important thing is to take good care of yourself. You haven't had a good rest since yesterday. Let's go and sit down first, and then slowly find out the whereabouts of aunt and brother."

As he spoke, he helped Richard walk towards the sofa. But when he turned around, he deliberately glanced at Lily.

Lily was puzzled by his gaze. Then she sneered. Was he afraid that she would spill the beans and tell others that she had met him in the shopping mall with his distant cousin today? If that was the case, she would have spilled the beans!

Thinking of this, she walked to the living room and sat next to Joe. This special seat was always hers, and Joe seldom let anyone else sit next to him.

"Uncle, aunt." Out of politeness, she greeted Simon and Jade, who were close to Joe.

The two nodded their heads separately. Then, Simon added, "Were you scared just now?"

"No." Lily smiled and shook her head.

"Alas..." Simon sighed and continued, "Richard is going crazy. The two of them left without any news. We couldn't find them. We came here today to greet Mr. Joe, but you're disturbed by these things. Please don't take it to heart."

At last, he looked at Joe, as if he was really interceding for his brother.

"Yes, you are right. It's not a big deal for her to run away from home. It's so unreasonable." Jade added.

"Well, Jade." Simon glanced at Jade and stopped her, "Stop it. After all, it's the Gu family's business."

Jade stopped talking.

"Mr. Joe, I'm sorry to disturb you." Simon looked at Joe apologetically.

"It's okay. Everyone will encounter some problems, but there will be a solution." Joe didn't care much about the Gu family's affairs, and he didn't think it was too much for Eric and Angela leaving home. Instead, he was dissatisfied with Simon and Jade. To be exact, he didn't like them.

But the marriage between Frank and Claire was a conclusion. As an elder, he had to endure it for the sake of the dignity of the Qiao family no matter how unhappy he was.

But he liked Richard a little. He was a good father to raise a child like Eric. However, what happened now was really disappointing.

But seeing his expression, Joe couldn't help persuading him, "Don't be too anxious. You should have a rest. As a sensible child, Eric should be fine."

"I'm worried about them." Looking up at Joe, Richard said worriedly.

"No, they won't." Lily said in a firm tone subconsciously. But as soon as she finished her words, she frowned with chagrin. Wasn't it the same as telling them that she knew the whereabouts of Eric and his mother?

"By the way," As if he had seen hope again, he looked at Lily and didn't notice her difference at all. "Lily, call your mother and ask if Angela is with her. They have been very close these days."

Lily was stunned. It seemed that she didn't expect him to say so. Although she didn't want to help him, she still took out her phone and dialed the number under his expectant gaze.

The phone was soon connected. It was not Tina's voice, but Kerr's. "Hello, Lily."

"Oh, uncle Kerr..." Hearing his voice, Lily was no longer surprised. He had been in charge of answering the phone these days. He didn't allow her mother to take her phone by herself because of the radiation problem.

"Do you have something to tell Tina?"

"Nothing important. I just want to know if Eric and aunt are with you." When she said this, Lily subconsciously looked at Richard, who was looking at her expectantly.

"No. what's wrong? What happened?"

"Nothing. Don't worry. Take care of yourself when you take care of my mother." After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lily hung up the phone and shook her head at Richard.

Disappointment replaced his expectation. He lowered his head and scratched his head irritably.

At this time, Frank, who was standing beside him, sneered and looked up at Simon. The father and son smiled at each other and then looked away, as if they were afraid of being discovered.

However, the more careful they were, the more easily they were found. Lily happened to see this scene. She frowned subconsciously, and immediately thought of what Eric had told her last time.

Dale and her son showed up at this time, and they were close to Simon.

Well, when they saw that Eric's family had been separated, they must have been overjoyed.

"Lily, call Eric." Richard, who had been depressed with his head down, raised his head again and looked at her hopefully. "I called him, but he refused to answer it. But if you call him, he will definitely answer it."

Hearing this, Lily clenched her phone subconsciously. If she called Eric because of this, would he be angry? After all, he didn't say anything when he left. Would she think that she was betraying him.

But if she didn't call him… It didn't make sense. On the one hand, she didn't want to see the secretly happy faces of Simon and Frank; on the other hand, it would be too inhuman when he made this request in front of so many people.

"Lily, uncle beg you, can you call Eric?" Seeing that she was hesitating, Richard said in a low voice, regardless of the dignity of the elders.

Lily glanced at him and then glanced at Frank's family. Seeing that they were all frowning, she decided to call them.

They behaved so obviously as if they were afraid that Richard would know the whereabouts of Angela and Eric.

"Uncle, don't worry. I'll call him." As she spoke, she took out Eric's number and dialed it. When she was waiting for the call to be connected, she was thinking about how to open her mouth.

"Hello, girl." Eric's voice came from the other end of the line.
