Prev Chapter Next Chapter

On the other side, when Rex drives back to the Villa, the speed is different from the snail-speed before.

On the way back, his average speed is about one hundred and twenty miles. It is too fast that even the

scenery outside the window, or even a shadow could not be seen clearly.

When he is waiting for the traffic light in the intersection, the phone that is resting on the side suddenly

vibrates. Picking it up, it is Lily who called.

His sight touches this word and immediately thinks of that soft yet tender little face. The ice in the

bottom of the man’s eyes melts away. Even though they have only separated away, he is already eager

to hear her voice.

The phone has directly connected to the car’s Bluetooth; he then quickly picks it up, deliberately

presses his voice low, making a captivating voice, “Hello?”

The other end keeps silent for two seconds before followed by an old sound. It happens when the

green light is on and when Rex is about to drive the car. After hearing the sound, he even slants aside

the steering wheel, causing the car in the next lane to horn.

He drives back to his driveway again, feeling a little lost, which is quite rare for him, “Hello, Lily?”

“I’m not Lily, I’m Lily’s father.”

The microphone transmits a man’s fully thick voice, even Rex’s arms that are holding the steering

wheel freeze. He even deliberately looks at the caller ID on his phone again, fearing that he might

make a mistake.

The screen clearly indicates that word, it is really Lily, but why it is her father who is talking to him?

Rex has never been like this before, his mood swings have changed so much. A second before, his

heart was still calm. At this moment, it has surged into a stormy wave.

However, the panic in his heart is not shown on the face. He then replies politely and obediently, “Hello,

Sir. I’m Lily’s boyfriend, Rex.”

After it, he seems to feel that his attitude is a little impolite, he then adds another sentence, “I didn’t

know that it was you just now, sorry”

“It’s fine,” Harry responds faintly, showing the manner of the seniority. He glances at his daughter who

keeps on eavesdropping behind him, then takes the phone and goes straight to his room. When he

arrives, he does not forget to lock the door, making sure that she could not hear it before saying, “We

have received the things you told Lily to give us. It is very good. But we can’t use it either. Next time,

don’t waste too much. We don’t have any custom at home, just a small gift or caring words are fine.

You don’t have to be so extravagance, we couldn’t afford it too.”

The words that Harry said seem amiable but in fact, he puts on his own position and attitude. Rex

aware of it and does not answer him hurriedly. He replies him once he had finished, “Sir, I personally

select these things and I think it suits you and aunty. If you don’t like it, I will try to ask Lily next time.

You don’t have to feel burdened. This is all I should do.”

He should do?

Harry silently smiles, and then shakes his head. He is indeed a good-talker.

“In short, we are really grateful and I’ve heard your relationship with Lily from her. If you have time,

come and have a meal at my house.” Harry’s words are absolutely for courtesy.

Unexpectedly, Rex deliberately takes this chance, “Sir, I will return back to the country on the fourth day

of the New Year. Until then, you and aunty can come to my place and look at where Lily usually stays.”

Harry has only made an invitation and he has seized this chance. Neither refuse nor accept is right,

thus, he only says ambiguously, “I’m quite busy in the New Year. I’ll ask my wife later, you can contact

Lily afterward.”

Rex does not have any request and easily agrees, “Okay, Sir. Wishing you and aunty a Happy New

Year, Goodbye.”

After hanging up the phone, Harry finds that he unexpectedly is sweating a little in his palm. He was too

concentrated that did not pay attention to it. Now, he realizes how tight his emotions are.

He is also an experienced person. At this moment, even talking over the phone with a junior can make

him so nervous. The other person is absolutely not an ordinary person.

Rex, he has heard before but does not understand it well. Now, it seems that the rumor outside is not

completely fake. This child is quite young but knows what others are thinking, he is indeed extremely

clever.

Harry is scratching his head when the door of the room is knocked from the outside, followed by Lily’s

tentative question, “Dad, are you done, I urgently need to use my phone.”

She could not see nor hear, which almost makes her anxious to death.

Harry walks to the door with the phone and unlocks the door, then hands the phone indifferently,

“Here.”

Lily takes it and immediately opens the recent call lost and glances at it. The duration is neither short

nor long - five minutes and thirteen seconds.

She tails Harry and keeps on asking, “Dad, what are you talking about, did he say anything?”

“No.” Harry does not have any intention to explain what he was talking about just now, but only walks to

the kitchen’s entrance and talks to Bree, “Are you doing anything on the fourth day?”

“The fourth day?” Bree is heating up the dishes. After thinking for a while, she shakes her head, “No,

we’ll visit our relatives on Wednesday.”

“Then we’ll leave with Lily to go to the place where she lives now.”

“Huh?”

“What?”

Bree and Lily speak in unison and look at Harry in astonishment.

“Rex invites us to go. Let’s find some time later.” As he said, Harry goes back to the room, giving an

evasive posture, hinting that he does not want to blend in anything.

“Mom, what’s wrong with my dad?”

Bree covers her mouth while smiling, “Your dad is embarrassed. He insists on calling him but end up

giving a chance to Rex.”

Lily freezes for a moment, finally realizing it. However, she is really shocked. She always feels that after

the New Year, her relationship with Rex will leap….

“Still, don’t avoid it anymore. I think this boy is quite active. Our own condition is not that excellent. You

don’t have to be as picky as before….”

“Hey, Mom!” Lily does not like to hear this word from her, “I know what I’m doing, don’t say it!”

“Okay, okay. I won’t say.” Finally, a smile is formed on Bree’s face. At least from what Rex said, she can

feel that it is not only Lily’s consent but also his consent.

Since she divorced with Tim, she and Harry keep on worrying her. Even though Lily’s condition is not

outstanding, still it is more than inferior. But after all, she had divorced once, there may not be a

suitable candidate in the future. Now that there is a man who is willing to treat her sincerely and be able

to support her to go on, it is better than anything else.

….

When Lily returns to her room, she immediately calls Rex. The phone is picked up in the first second,

his voice is a little tense, “Hello?”

When Lily hears his uncomfortable voice, she knows that he also had been frightened out just now.

She then puckers in a smile, “it’s me.”

Rex happens to drive the car into the front yard of the villa and sits still while the engine is off. He then

breaths out a sigh of relief and the first sentence turns out to be, “If your parents call me next time, you

have to tell me in advance.”

“Why, are you nervous?” Lily is meant to taunt him a bit, after all, it is rare to see him suffer a setback

once.

Unexpectedly, he admits generously, “Hm, I’m nervous.”

For the first time in life, his mood is like riding a roller coaster. His heart beats more than a hundred

times in a minute. Never did he have the excitement, but all of it is given by his future father-in-law.

Lily suddenly sympathizes him and says seriously, “It suddenly happened. Next time, I will tell you in

advance.”

Rex leans his back against the chair behind him and looks at the red color at the door of the villa,

thinking of how nervous he was just now and wants to laugh, “Don’t be glad under my difficulties,

you’re also an ugly daughter-in-law that will meet your parents-in-law sooner or later.”

The corner of Lily’s mouth becomes stiff, ugly, ugly daughter-in-law? Is he mentioning her??

Rex listens to the little woman who has no movement; he seems to be able to imagine her expression

at this moment. She must have widened her eyes, her pink lip will slightly open. He lowers his head

and chuckles softly, “Relax. I’ll still want you even if you’re uglier. Just don’t run away in terror.”
