Let's Get Married novel Chapter 351

He has a good sleep all over the night. At six o’clock the next morning, Rex gets up on time.

When he opens his eyes, he sees the delicate face facing him. She is still sleeping. It seems that she is not very comfortable. Her eyebrows are slightly wrinkled, and her small mouth is unconsciously open, shallow breathing.

Rex is stunned, and then a gentle light flashes across his eyes. He remembers that she was sleeping on her back last night.

Did she turn around secretly in the middle of the night, or just sleep without paying attention?

Rex curls up his lips and his heart becomes so soft.

Outside the window, the morning light sneaks in through the gap in the curtain. It’s not as strong as noon. It’s just comfortable.

Rex looks at the sleeping lady and couldn’t bear to disturb. But he doesn’t want to leave neither.

When she wakes up later, they will be bound to be a pin against an awl. Only at this time, she is obedient, and he will dare to show the love that has accumulated for five years without reservation.

The lady is sleeping and the man is lying on the edge of the bed. The picture is as beautiful as it would appear in the movie.

However, this beautiful morning is interrupted by a buzz of mobile phones.

Rex immediately twists his eyebrows and looks at the source of the sound. The mobile phone is placed on the tea table not far away. She moves uneasily, but doesn’t wake up completely.

He quickly walks to pick up the phone, presses the mute button. He does not want to answer, but he sees the three words on the screen, and could not help to answer the call.

However, Rex doesn’t expect that the first sentence from Ryan tears his heart.

“I have already sent Adair to kindergarten. These days I will arrange him to live in another apartment. I’m afraid that there will be some men of Rex around the old apartment.” Clear voice comes smoothly but tells a startling secret.

Adair.

Child.

Kindergarten.

When extracting the three key words in his mind, Rex is frozen. His narrow eyes become wide gradually, and his pupils are constricted. It is not only like a thunder on him but numbs his soul. An extremely absurd but limitless idea appears in his mind.

The great arteries between his necks thump and almost could not bear the energy released by his body.

“You don’t have to worry too much. I have told Adair that you are on a business trip and will be back in few days.” Ryan thinks that she is too worried so that she is silent for a while. “I will help you with Adair’s issues. You just take care of yourself first.”

“Child?”

His voice fades; Rex incomparably trembles to ask the word.

On the other end of the phone, Ryan’s fingers suddenly tighten and his face changes. “Why are you there? Where is Lily? What have you done to her?”

Rex is disturbed by Ryan’s words completely. He holds a breath and his voice seems to be squeezed out from the chest. “Whose child is Adair?”

Before Ryan answers, a crashing sound suddenly comes behind him.

It is not clear that when Lily has got up. When she opens her eyes, she sees Rex with her phone on his back. She gets out of bed without thinking, but accidentally touches the water cup by the bed.

At this moment, she hears “Adair” from Rex.

Lily becomes cold totally. When she looks at him and sees his eyes, she is completely on guard.

“Give me my phone.” she has a steady but chill voice.

Maybe when the things you fear most happen in front of you, you have nothing to fear on the contrary, because it couldn’t be worse. No matter how bad it is, it’s just a dead end.

Rex pauses for a few seconds, and then throws the phone to the bed beside her. Ryan’s voice faintly comes from the phone, “Hello? Lily, Are you OK?”

Lily takes up the phone and answers it. Her sight has never been away from Rex during the whole process. “I’m good. Don’t worry.”

“Did Rex do anything to you?” Ryan thinks of what happened just now and reminds her, “He knows the existence of Adair.”

“I know.” Lily doesn’t change her facial expression a bit. “I am going to hang up.”

Then she quickly hangs up without hesitation.

Rex stands there, still, looking at her with a pair of dark eyes. He tautens so tight that the blue veins on the side of his neck are clearly visible.

The room is filled with a terrible atmosphere, like a closed space full of carbon monoxide. Not far away there is a cluster of fire. The slightest mistake will blow everything up, and nothing will be left.

“Adair, whose child is he?” Because he tries to control the intense emotion in his body, Rex’s voice is hoarse.

He asks again and the question touches Lily’s heart. Those images that appeared in the nightmare are really staged at this time.

She simply turns off the phone. Her face is filled with cold air. “It has nothing to do with you.”

“Kindergarten? How old is the child? Four years old?” But he doesn’t intend to let it go, and asks her aggressively. “Lily, do you want to use Ryan to prevaricate?”

Lily’s heart is tight with his asking. A woman is weak, but a mother is strong. All of her softness disappears when the name of Adair appears, only a body of sharp thorn left. “I said it has nothing to do with you!”

“Nothing to do with me?” Rex finds that her attitude is so tough and the idea in his mind grows more and more certain. He rigidly comes to her, looking at her small bloodless face, “Is that child from five years ago, eh?”

“No!” Lily glares at him. Every word exhausts all her strength. “That child has died when you gave me up!”

“I didn’t give up!” he yells, revealing his heart in such a way. “I never think about giving up you, never!”

“But you did that. You made me lose hope for tomorrow and made me look like a blindfolded fool. If your choice is like this, I’d rather you didn’t choose me from the beginning!” Lily collapses out. She can’t bear it anymore, really.

Adair is the switch to her heart. When this button is pressed, everything can’t be hidden.

Rex doesn’t seem to hear what Lily said. He clenches his teeth and tries to resist the surging blood. His cheek is slightly bulging. He asks again and again, “Is Adair my child?”

“No!” Lily denies it. But she doesn’t know that she looks like an eagle that is protecting chickens. She is so brave and lonely, and pretends to be strong.

“No?” Rex laughs with anger because she is so stubborn. He suddenly pushes her to the bed. When her body touches the bed, he even protects her head.

Lily is shocked. “AH! What are you doing? Let me go! Let go of me!”

Rex grabs the hem of her medical suit and looks into her frightened eyes, “If you don’t want to say, I can look at it by myself!”
