Let's Get Married novel Chapter 208

Lily watches until the car disappears from her sight and turns to go upstairs. She carries a lot of things in her hand, which makes her sweats once she climbs to the fourth floor.

When she is just standing at the door and wants to knock on the door, Bree rushes out of the door, “I heard your voice just now, why did you just come so late. You… you, are you moving in?”

Bree sees a bunch of things in her hand, which makes that small body is about to fall. She then steps forward hastily to help her carry a few things.

When they enter the house, Harry sees his wife and daughter are carrying a bunch of things, feeling a little surprised, “What are these?”

Lily bends down to put things down, does not really know how to explain it. She then randomly makes an excuse, “This is the company’s award of the year and also something I bought. I can’t use it all by myself so I bring some for you guys.”

“Hmm.” Harry walks over and glances at the bag, obviously disbelieved, “Do you think your mom and I are foolish, can you afford these things?”

Lily touches her nose awkwardly and mumbles, “Dad, aren’t you too belittling me.”

When Harry worked at the government before, a lot of people sent him gifts. Various kinds of things were there. Even though he did not accept it, still he imperceptibly understands all of it. These things are definitely unaffordable for Lily’s salary for a few months.

Bree randomly opens a bag. Inside, it is the lastest mobile phone. She immediately frowns and re-covers the things, “Lily, where are these things from?”

Lily could not hide it but only tell the truth, “This is from Rex to you guys…”

“Rex?”

“Yeah…” Lily unconsciously lowers her head, “He said this is his gift for you guys.”

In fact, Rex’s original words are, these things are regarded as a small gift. Next time when he has the opportunity, he will officially visit them. Lily does not dare to say the rest of it. Afraid that once Harry is agitated, he will blow her out of the door directly.

The old couple looks at the gift on the floor, then turn their head to look at each other. Their eyes are full of contradiction and confusion.

Bree takes Lily’s hand to pull her to the sofa, “Lily, these things aren’t just small gifts. We can’t accept it, you should return it…”

“Mom, since it has been brought to our house, just take it. He has sent it and won’t take it back.” Thinking that she has to take it back again, she is worried. Based on her understanding of Rex, they will inevitably quarrel again. Moreover, he will definitely send it back again.

Hearing her words, Harry suddenly loses his temper, “What is your relationship with him now. It is impossible for me and your mom to accept his gifts indistinctly!”

The old couple is honest since they were young. Even though they have spent most of their life in the officialdom, Harry is not that greedy bureaucracy; he is a very honest person.

“Dad!” Lily is a little angry when she hears it, “What do you think I am!”

“Then say it honestly, what is going on?” Bree acts as a peacemaker between them, for fear that the father and daughter will fight and that New Year’s Eve will be uneasy.

Lily sighs deeply, she is forced until there is nothing to do but only make a solid statement between the two of them, “I have a normal relationship with Rex, we’re dating.”

“Even if you’re dating, you can’t accept such valuable things.” Harry does not give up and points his finger to the gift box on the ground, “Take it back to him!”

“Dad~!” Lily is anxious and helpless. She knows what Harry minds the most, but her relationship with Rex is not as far as they thought, “For him, these things are nothing at all.”

“You still dare to say it!” By listening to it, Harry is angrier, his eyebrows are almost pressed together, “Even if it is nothing for him, you still can’t accept it. We’ve wasted our time to educate you!”

Lily has also lost her temper. Is she that cheap in their eyes?

If it is not for Rex insisted her take it, she will not take an initiative to ask him for anything.

Thinking that her parents’ do not understand her, there is a sigh in her heart. She then blurts out without using her brain, “Okay, okay. Since you guys don’t want it, wait till that person personally delivers them and you guys will want it!”

Once the word fell, followed by a ringing sound that it is thrown to the floor, three of them are stunned in the living room. They look at each other in dismay, especially Lily, who regrets once she said it… is she crazy?!

When she is about to explain and saves herself, before she could even speak, Bree asks incredulously, “Have you and that child developed to this point?”

“…” it’s over, everything that is said is useless. Now, Lily has the feeling of being roasted on a fire, she even stammers, “No, no that, Mom. I don’t mean that, I….”

“What do you mean?” Harry’s tone finally cools down, he is not that agitated as before, “Say it honestly, do you two have any plans already?”

Two peoples, two pairs of eyes, all fall on Lily’s face. They are all family members who have lived with each other for so many years; they can perceive anything with a look and a tone.

Lily wants to hide but her expression has already leaked everything. She lowers her head and sighs, accepting her fate and nods, “Yes….”

At this moment, Bree and Harry are even more speechless. They never think that their daughter will have such rapid development. When they look at the gift again, it is approximately cost at least six digits, which is not the standard for ordinary people.

This….

Bree’s eyes scan around both of them and soften the atmosphere, “We’re worried, not to embarrass you. It’s better if you told us earlier. Now that you suddenly come back with so many valuable things, we feel uneasy.”

“Even if I said, you won’t listen.” Lily whispers back, “I’m an adult now. I know what I’m doing. You don’t have to worry about it. Can I be that cheap?”

“No matter how old you are, you’re still a child in front of your dad and me.” Bree pats her stiff shoulders, “Well, come inside and get some rest. I’ll heat up the dishes and you can come out to eat.”

“No!” Harry suddenly shouts to the two of them.

Lily is startled and pats her chest with her hand, “What the matter again, Dad?”

“He has sent so many things to us; we have to thank him personally before receiving them.” Harry is a typical activist and immediately lets Lily calls him, “Call him, I’ll talk to him.”

“What?” Even Lily’s eyes almost pop out when she heard this sentence, “Dad, are you kidding me?”

There is an expectation in the bottom of her eyes, she really hopes that he will withdraw the sentences he said just now. However, her fantasy is soon smashed out. She sees Harry waves his hand impatiently, “Don’t talk nonsense, call him now!”
