Let's Get Married novel Chapter 398

Lily narrows her eyes and lies, "No. I just check on Adair."

Ryan obviously doesn't believe what she says. Based on his understanding of men, it is absolutely impossible for him to just let her check on kid, not to mention that Rex is not just a man like others.

He knows that she doesn't want to share, or in another word, she doesn’t want him to know.

Ryan frowns. He wants to say something, but at the end he doesn’t. Instead, he chooses to give her space, "Come back if you finish."

Seeing that he doesn't continue to ask more, Lily feels relieved, "Okay."

The car becomes quiet again after she hangs up. She raises her hand but accidentally sees herself in the rearview mirror. Her hair is scattered down. She sees a few red marks on her neck when she raises her head up. She immediately looks away. She doesn’t want to see herself looking like this.

Now she finally calms down. Thinking about what happens just now, she feels ashamed and shy. She even accepts to have sex with him.

Lily, Lily, are you crazy!

She closes her eyes and leans against the seat behind her. She takes a deep breath. But what happens in the lounge keep showing in her mind.

When he bit his lips in sex, when he called her name, when he sweated…

Lily bites her lips. She doesn’t know what happens to her. She keeps thinking about him. At the same time, she can’t help torture and condemn herself in her heart.

She must be lustful. She can't help having sex with him maybe because she hasn't had a man for five years. Now that Adair's affairs have not been resolved, how can she keep thinking about him?

Lily opens her eyes and looks at the empty underground parking garage. She is suddenly a little confused. After what happens today, how can she face him in the future?

...

When Adair wakes up, Rex is calling his assistant outside the door. There is a problem with a project he invests. He is told that one of the shareholders suddenly withdrew his money, which may influence the expected time for the company to go public. If they can’t handle it well, the impact and the lost will be huge.

Hearing that, Rex understands what’s going on immediately. At this time, such a low probability event happens. It must be someone do it on purpose. As for who it is, he can't think of the second one except for Ryan.

"Don’t worry. Follow the information about it and report to me immediately. Find a way to collect the scattered stocks from the minority shareholders. Talk to them first." Rex stays calm, not panicking at all, in front of problems. For him, even he loses this project, at most he will only lose some money, which is not a big deal for him.

His savings is quite huge over these years. For him, it is just a number on the bank card. The only problem is that he doesn't want to lose to the man named Ryan.

He gets so annoyed seeing Ryan being around Lily a long time ago. Since he wants to fight, Rex will definitely fight back.

"Mommy? Mommy?"

Rex is talking on the phone. Suddenly he hears the cry of the little baby from the ward. His heart feels tense when he hears the crying. Without hesitation, he says, "The kid is awake, I'll talk to you later."

Immediately, he hangs up the phone without hesitation.

Knowing Rex already hangs up, Fraser feels stunned looking at the phone. Rex hasn't been to the company for nearly a week. When he says ‘The kid is awake’, it’s full of caring and love. It's hard to imagine such a cold and ruthless person will become like this because of a woman and a kid.

This is what the saying goes, everything has its vanquisher. He finally meets a woman who can conquer him.

Rex hurriedly pushes the door and enters the ward. Adair is already sitting up. His big eyes are still a little blurry. Adair turns his head and glances inside the room. Then he asks Rex hurriedly, "Where is my mom?"

"Mom has something to do, so she leaves already." Rex doesn’t feel shy at all lying to a little kid.

If Adair knows the reason his mom leaves is because he does bad thing to her, he is sure Adair will fight with him.

Of course, the bad thing is not real bad thing. It’s bad thing in bed.

When Adair hears this, his mood immediately becomes bad. His small face wrinkles together, and his head lowers down, "She didn’t wait for me..."

Although Lily is always busy, she still goes home every day and plays with him for a while. He never leaves her since childhood. When a kid wakes up, he will especially want to find his mom. Adair is no exception.

Rex sits on the bedside and pats him on the shoulder, "Mom will come back when she finishes. Adair is a big boy. You can be independent. Besides, uncle will always be with you here."

Adair is very well behaved. He doesn’t think too much like an adult. Knowing that his mom is busy, he doesn’t ask for too much anymore, "Then can we go back now?"

He doesn't like hospitals and always feels it’s very boring.

Rex already talks to Karl. Knowing that they can go back after the infusion, he immediately nods his head, "Yes."

Adair's mood seems to be better now. He lifts the quilt off and sits on the side of the bed, shaking his legs in the air.

Rex bends over and takes the shoes on the floor. It’s a pair of black sneakers with lace-up style. He unties the buckle of the shoelace slowly. Then he puts it on the Adair's feet.

It’s the first time for Rex to do such thing. It’s unavoidably slow. It takes him ten minutes just to put on shoes.

Adair looks at the messy bowties on his shoes. It must be the ugliest bowtie he has ever seen. But seeing how serious Rex is, he just says awkwardly, "Thank you."

"Don't say thank you to me." Rex looks calm, but inside, his heart is full of joy. His strong arms hold Adair down from the bed, then he naturally holds Adair’s hand, "ok, let's go home."

Adair just recovers from indigestion. He can’t eat too much food. Also Rex doesn’t know how to cook. On their way back, they go to a famous porridge shop and take away a vegetable porridge and a bowl of lotus seed porridge.

After two days of getting along, adding with his ‘psychological counseling’, Adair is a bit less cautious and talks more in front of him. Adair almost shares everything happens in the UK.

Rex listens with joy, holding the steering wheel in both hands. He taps his index finger a few times and asks, "Do you like Uncle Ryan very much?"

"Of course. He is very nice to me and my mom. He always buys me a lot of toys. Uncle Ryan says he will protect me and my mom forever." Adair doesn’t realize what Ryan means to Rex. He just thinks that Ryan is very nice to him. He doesn't know what the goodness represents.

Rex is a little upset when he hears it, but he can't say anything. Who can he blame that Ryan, not him, was there for Lily for five years.

He can only ask vaguely, "Uncle Ryan will marry one day and have kids of his own. What should you do then?"

Adair gets silence for a while, and then answers quickly, "But Uncle Ryan said he will stay with us forever."

Hearing his answer, Rex’s heart feels pain suddenly. But Adair says again, "But my mom says that I should be independent. I can't always rely on Uncle Ryan."

Rex stops talking. It turns out... Is that what she plans to do?

Rex starts laughing. She pretends to fall in love with Ryan in front of him. Behind his back, she doesn’t want to rely on anyone. But fortunately, at least she has never considered being with Ryan.

Rex is in a better mood, "Don't worry, I will protect you and your mom in the future."

"And Uncle Ryan." Adair is taught to be grateful since he was little. He doesn’t forget Uncle Ryan.

Rex curls his lips into a smile and says unwillingly, "If he needs it, sure."

As long as his son is happy, everything else is meaningless.
