Let's Get Married novel Chapter 210

“I won’t run away.” Lily is tough on her mouth but she feels a little apprehensive inside. After all, she has met Rex’s grandparents before and the experience at that time was not really pleasant. Come to think about it, she is even more uncertain.

However, just like what he said. She has to face it sooner or later, she cannot retreat now.

Moreover, he is there.

The two chat again for a while. When Bree knocks on the door to call her out to eat, Lily hurriedly hangs up.

Rex puts his phone back to the pocket and hops off the car to enter the villa.

At the end of the second floor where the curtains are drawn, the huge curtains of the windows move slightly. Marina hides behind it. The duration of Rex sitting in the car is the duration she stands inside it.

Sure enough, he must have called that bitch, Lily.

Her eyes are full of jealousy, her fierceness almost burst into flames.

Fortunately, Lily has left now. She will not meet her in these days, Rex will only see her.

Thinking of which, Marina’s mood has calmed a lot. Even though she cannot go out and only nesting in the Villa, as long as Rex accompanies her, everything will be bearable.

Marina pushes open the door and walks out of the guest room. When she is about to go downstairs, she passes the master bedroom on the way, and her footsteps pause. Before, Lily and Rex live inside, now she is gone….

There is a flash of light flickers in the bottom of her eyes. After staring at it for a few seconds, she retracts her gaze and goes downstairs with the same look.

Rex has just changed his shoes at the door. It is almost two o’clock at this time and he has not had lunch yet. Marina steps forward, “Rex, do you want Fanny to cook for you?”

“No need, there will be a remote meeting later.”

“Meeting?”

“The video conference for the overseas company, this is the last one before New Year.” Rex is in a good mood, which makes him answer her question one by one. However, there is not much to chat, he slightly keeps a distance.

“Then are you going to eat dinner at home?” Upon seeing him going upstairs, she shouts at him hastily. For fear that he will refuse it, she says in advance, “I have a habit of eating dumplings at home for the New Year. Although it is only two of us left, will you… accompany me?”

Her tone is deliberately low as though begging him to pity herself. The loneliness between the tone makes one wonders what if her parents were still alive…

Rex inhales deeply and slightly closes his eyes. While rolling his throat, he makes a single tone with his nose, “Hm.”

After that, he turns around and goes to the study room on the third floor.

Marina watches as the man’s silhouette disappears from her sight. Her lip slightly raises up, she then turns her head and just wants to instruct Fanny to prepare dumplings. However, when she just turns her head aside, she faces a pair of slightly old eyes.

The smile on her mouth freezes for a moment, but it is quickly covered by her, “Fanny, you’ve heard it.”

Fanny clearly sees the pitiful look a second before, but the next second her face is full of complacent expression. Even she who is at this age still feels a goose bump.

She has no good feeling for Marina, but she does not expect she will have such scheme.

“Fanny, what’s wrong with you?” Thinking about it, Marina has walked in front of her in a few steps.

Fanny comes back to her sense and smiles awkwardly, “Nothing. I suddenly remember that there is not much meat at home. I’ll go out and buy it later.”

Seeing that she is leaving, Marina ambiguously says to her back, “Fanny, you can rest assured. I will not mistreat you at home in the future.”

Fanny tightens up, knowing that she is just a part-time worker and has not right to speak. In fact, by saying this, she has set an alert.

However…

Fanny turns around and smiles at her, “Marina, I’m just working, it’s all the same.”

Hearing it, Marina nods in satisfaction, “You can go now.”

Fanny walks to the kitchen quickly and shuts the door with her backhand. With the hand on the surface of the icy countertop, she is thinking whether to remind Lily or not.

Who says Marina treat Rex as an elder brother, she simply treats him as his own man!

…

At seven o’clock in the evening, Fanny places the dumplings at the dining table. She wraps two kinds of dumplings, carrot with mutton and mackerel boiled dumplings. Rex likes to eat fish. Thus, it will be more appetite.

Marina also specifically asks her to cook a few dishes for New Year’s Eve. Fanny makes ribs, meatballs, also shrimps, and others. All of which are relatively common as New Year’s Eve dishes.

Marina calls Rex down, she clamps every dish into his bowl as though taking credits, “Rex, eat it while it’s hot.”

Rex looks at the sumptuous dishes on the table. It has to be said that Fanny as the most excellent housemaid, indeed has a great ability. Every dish looks delicious that makes people have an appetite.

He tastes the mackerel boiled dumplings. The fish is delicate yet full of elasticity, in addition to its chives seasoning, which is relatively light, it is very appetizing to him, “Not bad.”

Seeing that he liked it, Marina’s mood gets better. She keeps on giving dishes for him. Rex’s persuasion is also useless. Thus, it goes as she likes.

It is a quite harmonious meal. After it, Rex accompanies Marina to watch a TV show. In the middle of it, he receives a call. It should be related to official business that it lasted for half an hour before he hangs up.

After hanging up, by looking at the brightly lit house, his heart feels empty. The petite woman who originally likes to wander around left the house temporarily. The house seems to be deserted a lot.

He glances at the ornaments in the living room. The calendar on the table, the vase on the wine cabinet, the red Chinese knot in the middle of the living room’s wall, without notice, she had already left a lot of traces.

As thinking of it, Rex is scared by his low mood. It is only a few days away and he even cares about this, which is really ridiculous if it has to be spoken.

“Rex, come here quickly, it’s cold outside.” Marina turns to look at the man who is standing by the window and reminds him.

Rex then steps forward and walks over. His vision silently falls on the back of her body. He always feels that she is quite weird tonight, but it is an unspeakable feeling.

This weird atmosphere lasts until midnight. When it is time to sleep, Rex finally realizes what was wrong.

At three o’clock in the morning, Rex gets up to go to the bathroom. He drinks some black tea at night, which makes his stomach a little swollen. The headlights in the bedroom are not turned on, which makes the scene in front of him vague and makes him cannot see clearly.

After using the lavatory, he turns off the light and walks back to the bedside almost in a dark. The tall body lies down and the big soft mattress bounces twice.

The sleepiness struck and the man’s heavy eyelids close. But soon, he opens it again, the chaos under his eyes is lessened, most of it is fierceness and shrewdness. He twists his brows and lifts the quilt on his body at once since he feels something strange around him. When he turns, unexpectedly he sees Marina sleeping on the side, where it is originally Lily’s position.
