Let's Get Married novel Chapter 282

A landline phone, bookcase, desk files, crystal ashtrays ... all scatter on the floor. The glass broke a lot of glass crumbs at the feet, which is quite shocking.

The man who starts it is half leaning against the couch, his hair has messed up, and his face is ashen. He is wearing the same shirt he has worn at the hospital two days ago. He looks scruffy.

Karl hasn’t seen him so out of control once upon a time, it makes him so worrying, "What the hell happened?"

Rex seems to be sealed, he is opening his mouth but unable to make a single sound, just leaving only a sad and helpless grin.

This situation makes Karl’s gaze cold as well, his intuition tells him that it is something very bad, "There's something else going on with Lily?"

As for the person who could make him so crushed, he hasn't seen another besides Lily.

As expected, the man on the couch finally makes a move when he is hearing the name. He is sitting up straight and quickly bending down again, each movement of him is showing the pain. Karl doesn't rush him but stands on the side and just accompanies him silently.

After waiting for a long time, he finally waits for him to speak, "I spent two whole days going through the surveillance, and every part, every period I have to go over it many times, but I can't find anything fishy, the bottle of toxic liquid was indeed brought in by Lily, in her isolation costume. There's no way to see what Marina did. There's nothing suspicious about her actions, the surveillance has blind corners and dead ends, nothing can be found ......."

He is almost incoherent, but Karl understands that this incident most probably can be proven to be Lily’s doing, even though they both know that it won't be her, but there is no way to prove her innocence.

"I've been contacted by the police, and the fingerprints on the needle are only her own, no one else has touched them." He says then sweeps a hand off the table once more, his hard fist is pounding a crack in the glass like a wounded animal.

"It's that seamless...?" Karl still can't believe it, if it isn't Lily, who could do this, it must be someone within the hospital. Otherwise, the person wouldn't know the location of the surveillance so well.

But the area of the hospital is so big, how easy is it to talk about without evidence?

Rex's feelings are somewhat understandable to him now, and because of that understanding, he doesn't even know how to comfort him.

There's no such thing as empathy in this world, you never know how much it hurts until the needle is stuck in you.

"Karl, I want to see her, I want to bring her home. I know it isn't her, I trust her, but I can't catch anything..." He is pulling his hair, and his whole-body falls, such a blow in Rex's life has never happened before.

He has helped so many people solve their lawsuit, but now he has fallen on Lily. That's the one thing he can't solve yet.

Don't worry, there's always a way, there always is..." Aside from such a pale sentence, Karl doesn't know what else he could say.

Once again, this proud and irrepressible man burst into tears, and he cries, for the woman he loves.

"I won't hand her over, absolutely not."

Karl doesn't take this statement to heart, the things are no longer within their control, but he never expects that Rex would even do this...

After two more days, Rex rushes to the police station after handling things from the company, he doesn't go to see Lily but goes directly to the director office.

"Mr. Rex, look at this, this is the latest progress, we have also communicated with Miss Lily, she refuses to admit what she has done, with the descriptions of the other parties are also very different, and the point is that all the pieces of evidence now point to her, and we're difficult in..." The director's appearance is no longer as relaxed as it was the last time, he comes to bring someone.

Rex looks steady and he says, "As long as director doesn’t make troubles for her, I naturally won't make troubles for you either."

"That's for sure, the court hasn't pronounced its verdict yet, and we don't have the right to do something on Miss Lily!"

"There's something I want to reveal to the director today." Rex straightens and folds his shirt, "Although the evidence is unfavourable right now, I will still be Lily's attorney."

This sentence is undoubtedly a sentence bombshell, and the director is surprised, although he has learned about the relationship between Rex and this Lily, this matter it's not unusual, it's a life-and-death lawsuit, and the situation is so bad that Rex shouldn't be involved in this...

The director is muttering, is there another twist to this case?

Anyway, no matter what, this Miss Lily absolutely can’t be embarrassed.

The two of them chat for a while, the director knows his intention, and without delay he let someone takes him to the interrogation room where Lily is.

The door is opening, Lily is dazed, she hears someone enter and doesn’t have any reaction, Rex stands in front of her, he is looking at the woman and it has hurt him after seeing her situation.

Her skin is already pale, so when she's not resting well, the dark circles under her eyes become more visible, and her lips, which are originally pink, is also dry. It has just been four days, but it has already made her so haggard.

Lily is distracted, she thinks it is another police officer who comes in to ask what was going on, but after waiting for a while and not seeing the other party sit down. She realizes something is wrong, and then she looks up and she is stunned.

The face that has been in her mind for a thousand times appears in front of her. He is still so handsome, even though the tiredness between his eyebrows could not stop his charm.

She looks at him, not even willing to blink her eyes a little more. She is afraid that the next second he will be disappeared. It has been a few days. Maybe four days?

Lily thinks, and her tears already rolling down from her eyes, she wants to speak but she can't help but choke up, "Why do you come so late..."

She is waiting for him so long, why does he come so late.

Rex's heart is like being beaten hard, he says with his red eyes, "I'm sorry, I can't take you back yet."

Lily shakes her head, she is crying and laughing while wiping tears, like a neurotic, obviously she is not beautiful at all, but he just can't look away.

"It's good that you're here."

Just let her know that he is there, and she is already at ease.

Taking a deep breath to calm the emotions churning in his chest, Rex pulls out the chair across from her and sits down. He is looking at her, with the tenderness in the depths of his eyes about to melt her.

"Don't be afraid." Rex raises his hand to clutch the small, cool hands on the tabletop, "No matter what happens, I'll be there for you, good or bad, and I'll bear with you."

Lily's heart thuds when she hears his words, "The case is going... not well?"

She tries to ask him, the gingerliness under the eyes makes people heartbroken. She did nothing wrong.

Rex avoids such a gaze, the real situation he can’t say, he can only use lies to fill the void, "Don't worry, I'm here."

Lilly fully believes his words, not suspicious at all, and finally blooms into a smile, "That's good."

She suddenly remembers the matter of Ryan. "Rex..."

"Well?" He looks over her with concern, "What's wrong?"

Lily is hesitating, she sees his bloodshot eyes and she swallows back the words, forget it, he is already so tired, don't add to his burden, anyway, Ryan also says that he will not come back.

Eventually, she swallows the words on her lips, "It's okay."

Rex is thinking that she is worrying about things again, he reaches out and takes the person into his arms and says, "I'll stay with you, okay?"

Lily’s gaze is inquisitive towards him, "I know."

After many days of not seeing each other, both of them are in love, despite the occasion and location, Rex still can’t control; he leans over and kisses the woman's dry lips.

Lily doesn’t have such a desire to want a person immediately; she takes the initiatives and kisses the man in front of her.
