Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 183

The breakfast was quite peaceful. No one mentioned what happened last night. Besides, no one wanted Joe to know about it, so they chose to avoid talking about it.

Lily didn't care about it at all. It was the matter between Claire and Frank. It had nothing to do with her at all. Last night, only brainless people like Jade would blame her. But she scolding her was a counterattack.

After breakfast, Lily went to the manor. She didn't ask the driver to send her there, but took a taxi.

When they arrived at the manor, they saw the busy Kerr who just came out of the kitchen with a bowl of hot soup in his hand. When he saw Lily, his eyes lit up as if he had seen a savior. "Lily, you're finally here."

Seeing him like this, Lily felt very happy. She suddenly smiled and said, "Uncle Kerr, why do I feel that you are helpless with my mother?"

"I have no choice. Pregnant women are the most important." Kerr looked sad, but his eyes were full of happiness. "I can only be a cook under command. Now that she is awake, hurry up and bring the soup to her."

"Then you are also a happy cook." With a smile, Lily put her bag on the sofa and reached for the bowl in his hand. "Let me bring it to her."

"Be careful not to hurt your hands." Kerr carefully handed the bowl to her and sighed exaggeratedly, "Alas, with a daughter like you coming, I can also breathe a sigh of relief, and by the way, I can take a break."

"Uncle Kerr, I seriously suspect that you asked me to come here. My mother didn't want to eat the food I cooked." Lily joked and went upstairs with the soup.

"Hey, you see through me." Kerr said with a smile and followed her upstairs.

When they went upstairs, Lily turned left as usual, because Tina's room was the first one on the left.

"Lily, on the right." Kerr reminded, "Tina is in my room."

Lily was stunned for a moment and then realized what had happened at once. She turned right and looked at Kerr with an ambiguous look, whispering, "Uncle Kerr, the night when your proposal was successful..."

Then she moved closer to him and blinked her bright eyes. "You took my mother to your bed directly. Otherwise, how could she get pregnant so soon?"

"Ahem..." Kerr gave a dry cough and his face flushed unnaturally. "Don't ask too much, kid."

"Now you know I'm a child?" Lily squinted at him and said, "I didn't know who told me that you needed a bed partner, but now he said that I was a child. Uncle Kerr, you've spoiled the future flowers of our motherland."

Hearing this, Kerr's face turned even redder. Well, he did say that to her.

Seeing him like this, Lily stopped teasing him. "Well, uncle. I won't tease you anymore."

After saying that, she took the soup to the room of Kerr.

As soon as she entered the room, she saw Tina lying on the bed, covered with a quilt. She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling. No one knew what she was thinking, or perhaps she didn't think of anything. She was in a state of emptiness.

"Mom." Lily said and walked to the bed with the soup.

"Lily." Seeing Lily, Tina immediately showed a smile on her face. She stood up and said, "You're here. I've been missing you for a long time."

As soon as Kerr saw her stand up, he rushed over and held her in his arms. "Be careful. Don't move too much."

While speaking, he put a pillow on her back with one hand and let her lean against it.

"Oh, it's okay. Why are you so fussy?" Tina glanced at him coquettishly.

"You have to be careful. We have to prevent all major movements. The doctor also said that the first two months are the most unstable, so we have to be more careful." As he spoke, Kerr helped her cover the quilt under her waist and put a coat on her, in case she caught a cold.

Seeing that Kerr was so nervous about his mother, Lily was relieved. Standing beside them, she looked at them with a happy smile on the corner of her mouth, but she thought of the scene that she would be with Eric in the future.

She didn't know if Eric would take care of her like this after they got married. He was so meticulous in all aspects, just like how Uncle Kerr took care of her mother. He even had to help her get up in person.

Thinking of this, the smile on her face became more and more obvious. She was completely immersed in her own thoughts and did not notice that someone was calling her.

"Lily, Lily." Tina called her twice in a row. Seeing that she still didn't respond, she couldn't help but raise her voice, "Lily!"

"What? What's wrong?" When she came to her senses, Lily looked at her mother as if she just woke up from a dream.

Seeing her like this, Tina smiled, "What are you thinking about? I called you so many times, but you didn't respond."

"Nothing." With a blush on her face, Lily walked to the bedside and sat down. She scooped up a spoonful of soup with one hand and a spoon with the other. The temperature was just right, and fed it to Tina's mouth. "Come on, have some soup."

After drinking the soup, Tina looked at her and said, "That's strange. If you don't think about anything, why didn't you hear me call you?"

"Mom, you'd better stop asking. I won't tell you even if you ask." Lily said with a smile. Then she scooped up another spoonful of soup and fed it to her mouth. She said in a somewhat naughty tone, "This soup is cooked for you by your exclusive cook. Drink it up."

"I think she must miss Eric." Kerr, who was sitting at the head of the bed, said with a smile.

"Uncle Kerr, it's not right for you to expose my mind." Lily joked.

"Look, it's easy to guess what she is thinking." Kerr couldn't help asking for credit from Tina, but she rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't you know that don't guess what girls are thinking?"

"Hey, I don't talk anymore." Kerr shut up wisely.

"Ha ha..." Lily couldn't help laughing and continued to feed the soup. "My mother still loves me."

Kerr shook his head helplessly, but he calmed down for the sake of mother and daughter.

"Oh, right." As if he had thought of something, Kerr suddenly changed the topic. "You called me yesterday and asked me if Eric was here. What happened?"

Hearing that, the smile on Lily's face immediately faded away. "Nothing. Uncle is looking for Eric, so he asked me to call him."

Seeing that she didn't want to explain so smoothly, Kerr could tell at a glance that there must be something hidden, but since she was unwilling to tell him, he didn't ask more.

However, Tina asked with concern, "Lily, is there anything wrong with Eric?"

"No." Lily didn't intend to tell her. After all, she had a good relationship with Angela these days. If she knew these things, wouldn't it add trouble to her?

"If you didn't call Eric directly, why did you call us?" Obviously, Tina didn't believe what she said. She continued to ask, "Did you have a conflict with Eric?"

"No, mom, don't think too much. I'm fine with him." As she spoke, she spooned the soup slowly to her mouth and said, "Come on, drink the last mouthful of soup."

Tina dodged the spoon and looked at her sharply, "I want you to tell me the truth!"

"Lily, you'd better tell your mother, or she will be more worried than anything else." Kerr advised.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you." Lily smiled and tried her best to say in a relaxed tone, "Nothing happened between me and Eric. There was a little conflict between his parents. Uncle had an illegitimate child outside and he was about my age. When Eric and aunt knew it, they ran away from home."

"How could an honest man like Richard have an illegitimate child outside?" Tina looked at Lily in surprise.

"Yes, Mr. Wayne has taken them home." Lily nodded.

"Men are really bad!" Tina blurted out angrily.

"Ahem..." Kerr coughed and said in an aggrieved tone, "Tina, don't beat me to death. I love you wholeheartedly and have never changed my heart for decades."

Glancing at him, Tina ignored him and continued to ask Lily, "What about Angela? How is she?"

"Eric said Aunt was good. He would take her back on the fourth day of the lunar new year." Lily told her the truth. She didn't want to hide anything from her mother. Besides, it was not a big deal.

"If she comes back, let her live with me. I can accompany her, so that she won't be sad alone." Suggested Tina.

"Okay." Lily replied with a smile, "When they come back, I'll tell aunt. I think she must be willing to, but..."

She turned to Kerr with hesitation, "Uncle Kerr, you won't object, will you?"

"Do you think I have the right to object?" Kerr asked with a smile.

"Okay..." Lily deliberately hesitated for a moment, and then said with a smile, "No, and you dare not."

Kerr looked at her with a smile, "You know it, but you still ask me. Isn't it a waste of saliva?"

"Uncle Kerr, you don't understand. I'm asking you because I respect you as the master of this family." Lily explained with a smile, "As for knowing that you have no right to say no, that's because I know that you won't let mom and me down, indicating that you are a good man, which seriously shows your importance in our hearts."

Kerr smiled in a good mood. He admitted that he was a little relaxed after hearing what Lily said.
