Let's Get Married novel Chapter 371

After Vivian leaves, Amelia asks Rex a few questions. Seeing that he is reluctant to say anything, she goes back home with Eduard and Florence.

Rex’s granddad calls him into the study. Granddad sits next to the table, while Rex is standing on the other side of the table. The atmosphere of confrontation is very obvious in the study.

"Let's talk about it. What is going on with the kid? " Granddad asks first.

Rex answers with not much facial expression, "He is lily’s and my kid. He is four years old and looks like me. That’s all."

"I'm asking you exactly what's going on! When and where the kid was born? Tell me all in detail!" Granddad rises up his volume.

Hearing this, Rex answers with bitterness, "Lily was pregnant five years ago when the accident happened. She left me for that kid. She gave birth in the UK and raised him by herself. I don't know much more. You have to ask her yourself if you want to know more."

It is not just them who are not there for her all these years, but also himself.

Granddad listens carefully, and finally says, "What is the kid's name?"

"Adair. It means Fortune and spear. Wish Adair has flair, the grace of a Fred Astaire."

"Is it a boy?"

"Yes."

Granddad nods his head, "It's a good name, but... why does he follow Lily's family name?"

"She didn't want me to know when she gave birth. That’s why he follows Lily’s family name. Also, you don't have to worry about her purpose of coming back. Isn't it right?" Rex knows that they will consider why she comes back, so he just mentions it first to keep their mouths shut.

"No matter what happened with you and her, the kid has to follow our family name. Or else we will be a joke of others!" Rex’s granddad is very conservative. He thinks the kid has to follow the dad’s family name.

However, his granddad doesn't treat differently between boys and girls, as long as they are from his family.

Rex thinks it ridiculous with what his granddad says. But what his granddad says also means his approving of this kid, but…

"Lily gave birth and raised the kid all by herself. Adair’s name is on her family book. Do you really think you can change Adair’s family name easily? Even though I want to change it, Lily is not necessarily willing to do so."

"Why would she say no? If the kid joins in our family, there are only benefits for him."

"Do you think everyone is craved to join in our family? She has comfortable life in the UK by herself. Without me, she earns enough wealth for the rest of her life."

"You!" Granddad gets speechless. He pats the table angrily, "You are just fascinated with that woman!"

"Yes, I am fascinated with her." By now, Rex does not deny it anymore. "And I was fascinated with her five years ago. You knew it."

"Okay, good, you are good..." Granddad is completely speechless. He can only stare at him. After a while, he says angrily, "If you have the ability, just handle all these things nicely. Don’t make me and your grandma worry for you. You are already 37 years old. How many five more years do you have to wait?"

What he says is exactly what Rex waits for. His dark eyes narrow down a bit with a sharp light flashing by, "I want to be stable with her. I will be with Lily immediately if you agree so."

Granddad finally understands what happens. Rex is trying to irritate him to get what he wants.

Granddad calms himself down and asks ambiguously, "Didn't you say that even though you want it, Lily is not necessarily willing to do so? Suddenly, it all depends on your decision?"

"Then let’s wait and see if I can take them back to me."

After saying so, Rex smiles and says "Bye." without caring what his granddad is thinking.

When Rex is going downstairs, he sees his grandma is about to go upstairs. She looks at the study for one second to make sure no one break anything. She says loudly with anxiety, "Are you leaving now? Be careful and drive slowly!"

Seeing Rex walking towards the gate, after a while, she hears the sound of the car engine. Then, she walks inside the study.

In the study, Granddad is sitting on the chair, being stunned. She does not know what he is thinking. He doesn't have any reaction seeing her walking in.

"What did you say to Rex?"

"I asked about the kid."

It gets silence after what he says. She looks at him tentatively and sighs, "What do you think about the kid?"

He frowns his eyebrows for a second. Then it seems like he finally lets something go. He says, "What else can I do? If Rex is the father for sure, I will accept the kid!"

…

Lily plans to go to Abby’s home after dinner from home. She has a lot of work to do since she comes back. She has to always leave home early and come back late, which influents a lot of the rest for her families. That’s why she thinks it is inconvenient to live at home.

Adair gets along very well with his grandparents. Even though they are not close to each other on their first meet, after all, they are family. Very soon, they get very close to each other.

Lily considers the situation. She also talks to Harry and Bree about it. She decides to ask them to take care of Adair for a while. "Adair, mom will be busy with work. I may not able to take care of you. Do you want to live with grandparents for a while?"

"Okay!" Unlike what Lily expects, Adair agrees right away. Then he looks at her with the face that shows he doesn’t want to leave her, "Then mom, you need to come and see me often."

"Don't worry, mom will definitely come to see you and bring you delicious food." Lily is relieved that Adair is more independent than other kids at the same age.

"Live here with us. Grandma will take you to eat soup dumplings at the street corner. You must have never eaten it!" Bree smiles. She doesn’t feel awkward towards the kid anymore. No matter what, Adair is Lily’s son. He is her family.

Although Harry doesn’t act like Bree, it’s still easy to see his love for Adair from his eyes. "Let your grandma take you there."

"Great!" Adair lays on the sofa, looking at the ceiling with a smile, "I am so happy!"

The accompany of family members and the love from elders are much more valuable than toys and material life.

Lily feels helpless from Adair. She smiles and shakes her head. She looks at her side and says, "Mom, dad, I am leaving. Have a good rest. Be careful with peaches. Adair is allergic to them. Please call me if you need me."

"Ok. Drive safely. I and your dad will not walk you down." Bree walks her to the door and says. Her eyes are watering again. "Don't forget to come back often. Your dad, Adair and I, we are all at home waiting for you."

Lily comes back only once after so many years. Then she wants to leave right after she comes back. Bree gets so scared that once she leaves, she will come back after another five years.

Lily gets so sad that she hugs her mom to comfort her, "Don't worry, Mom."

Bree finally lets her go after talking for a while. Lily walks out of the community carrying her bag. She is so emotional that she doesn’t notice the car on her side. When she is about to cross the road, suddenly, she hears a loud horn. Beep!

There are not many cars at this period of time, so it sounds particularly harsh.

She shivers, looking towards the sound with a little unhappy feeling. Then she sees a familiar car parking by her side.

Why is he here?
