Let's Get Married novel Chapter 258

She reaches out to open the car door and stands vigorously to turn and leave. Suddenly, her palm hits a hard rectangle. Her footsteps stop and have no choice but to turn around and walk back to hand him the car key. Her tone is bad, “Yours.”

The man’s figure in the night is somewhat slack. Because of the effect of alcohol, seeing that she is coming back, his vision lands on that petite fair hand. Instead of rushing to pick up the key, he directly grabs her thin wrist and slams her into his arms fiercely. By hearing her surprise, he stretched out again to hold her waist, his hot lip falls on her ears, “Why are you mad, I can’t even restrain the impulse of my body, what gentleman’s behavior do you want me to have?”

“….” With a bang in her head, there is a pink mushroom cloud burst inside. She is blushing like a cooked shrimp; She then hurriedly pushes him, “Let me go!”

Rex does not trouble her and releases her hand. His eyes are burning and are admiring the blush on her face, “Get inside the house, I’ll call a driver to pick you up.”

“No need, I can handle myself…”

“This is suburbs, how can you go? Taxi or walk?”

The man’s voice is slow as if watching her making fool of herself. 

Lily’s temper rises and scorns an unspoken criticism. As expected, good intentions do not pay off, he removes the plank after crossing the bridge. By looking up to choke on him, she eventually bumps into a pair of tender eyes. 

She stuns and stands blankly, forgets to react; She has long known that this man never speaks his mind, but little did she expect that he has reached this point. 

Even when saying something irrelevant to her, he can still have such an addicting look. 

She suddenly remembers those unknown late nights, either at home or hospital, there was always a dark car park downstairs at where she was for a long time. 

Just like his eyes at this moment. If you avoid it, you will never discover the love he hides. 

What is his feeling?

Lily’s heart is like a string struck by a pianist, it slightly trembles, slowly echoes loudly. 

“Rex.” She calls his name, she has never been so serious. She smiles and says in a firm yet inexplicably weak way, “Do you like me very much?”

She asks suddenly for no reason. However, Rex is interlinked with her heart, the feelings in the bottom of his eyes gradually become stronger, “No.”

He’s cold voice melts into this steep night breeze. 

Lily’s face stiffens, but before she looks away, her cheeks are clasped by him. His hand with thin cocoons covers at the border of her neck and cheek, which is gentle, “Like is an indulgence, love is restraint. According to this sentence, I have fallen in love with you and I still can’t help myself.”

His tone is faint yet full of self-depreciation, not to laugh at his feeling for her, but to laugh at himself. He has unconsciously fallen into it. 

“I have a failed relationship before. When I accepted you, it was tantamount to open my wound again. But the result is not good. Now I want to break this relationship but I found that I couldn’t do it at all.” She looks straight into his eyes, finally willing to confide to him, “I don’t know what is good or bad. Saying that I’ve got over you is a lie. Because I can’t get over you at all, but re-accepting you… it’s hard.”

This petite figure barely reaches his shoulders. She stands in front of him and analyzes to him, “I don’t know how to continue loving you, but I can’t refuse you either. Look, I still send you home, right?”

“Lily….” Rex is touched by her words and tears in her eyes, his heart is broken. “I don’t force you, it’s my fault, don’t cry….”

Lily raises her hands and wipes away the tears, letting him see the firmness of her eyes, “Since I don’t know what to do, I’ll follow my heart this time. No matter what the consequences are, even if I’m betrayed again, whether it’s good or bad, I’ll accept it.”
