Lily does not know how she arrives at the hospital from the Villa. She follows the ambulance. She is
like a walking corpse. She only watches as Harry enters the operating room and being pushed out of it,
and then finally he is arranged in the VIP ward.
The dramatic one is, Marina’s ward is just downstairs. For the whole three hours, Rex has not come to
see her even once.
He might not care anymore.
Only a thing and all his emotions are exposed.
Between Marina and her, he does not hesitate to choose Marina. Even if the woman displeased her
parents and Harry committed a heart attack, he just blamed her and asked ‘Satisfied now?’
Lily looks at Harry who is lying on the bed with his eyes closed. She is very upset, feeling that all her
efforts during these days are ridiculous and pitiable. By looking at her reddened eyes, Bree could not
say any blaming words but only pats her in the shoulders, “Rest for a while. I’ll take care of your dad.”
Lily stares for a while and raises her hand to wipe her tear after a while. She says nothing and gets up
to leave the ward.
She walks all the way to the window at the end of the hallway. The cold wind from outside of the
window blows in, cutting through all the disguise on her face. Her tears are like broken beads, falling off
one by one.
Obviously, a few hours ago, she was still happily telling Harry to go to Rex’s house. She was looking
forward to introducing her beloved man to her parents. In a blink of an eye, everything changed. This
kind of dramatic change makes her feel that everything happened before is a bubble.
He does not trust her, not at all.
Lily hugs her arm, she feels that she is just been taken out of bitterly cold water. Is it disappointment? It
does not seem so. It is a more desperate feeling than disappointment. How deep is this man hiding
from her, which can make her mistakenly think that Marina is not a problem at all?
Perhaps, as Marina said, she is the third wheeler among them.
Just when she is out of her sense, Karl rushes over hastily with some anxiety over his face, “Lily, the
condition of your dad has stabilized. His blood vessels were blocked at that time, which made him out
of breath. Later, he needs to do scaffolding. I have already discussed the plan with the doctor in
charge, don’t worry too much.”
“How much does the surgery cost?” Lily raises her hand to wipe the tears on her face. Things have
turned into this point; she does not want more people to see her difficultness.
“It’s okay; you don’t have to worry about the medical expenses. It’s all on Rex.” Actually, Karl does not
intend to charge her, but he is afraid that Lily will insist on it. Thus, he simply finds an excuse.
Rex?
She feels that he will never be needed again in the future.
Lily smiles bitterly and says nothing but only asks, “How’s Marina?”
Karl is stunned for a moment, he hesitates for two seconds, thinking how to tell Lily, but unexpectedly
he hears Lily says it, “Tell me the truth, I know it all.”
Karl sighs, “Not good. There is water in the lungs, her blood pressure is also unstable, and various
body performance indicators are not very good. She needs to be observed. The doctors from the US
have already rushed here.”
“Is she conscious?”
“Yes, just conscious.” Karl looks at his watch and says precisely, “Ten minutes ago.”
Lily nods and takes a deep breath, “Then I’ll visit her.”
Karl does not know that she will make such a request. There is a refusal in his mouth. After all, it is
definitely unpleasant how this kind of thing happened. Visiting her at this moment…However, when his
eyes touch the heavy sadness in Lily’s eyes, he could not say anything.
Forget it, he still believes Lily more. Blocking her is also not a solution. Moreover, Rex’s condition is not
very stable, it is better for the two of them to meet.
Karl brings Lily to the ward downstairs. Behind the door of the ward, Lily sees a tall figure sitting by the
bed. The man slightly bends, facing the woman on the bed. Marina seems to be aware of their
presence; the hand that is clamped on an instrument slightly lifts up, and quickly grasps the man’s
hand.
Lily feels a pain in her heart. When she lowers her eyelids, Karl knocks on the door, for fear that she
will be more uncomfortable with the scene.
Hearing the sound, Rex turns around and opens the door. However, when he sees the woman standing
by the door, he is stunned. But soon, he recovers and asks her dryly, “How’s your father?”
Lily’s whole heart seems to be soaked in sour lemon. The strong acid corrodes her heart little by little. It
hurts piercingly. If this did not happen, how consoling and moved she will be when she heard this
sentence?
Lily does not dare to think deeply but barely looks at the woman in the ward over his tall body. While
choking, she says in a trembling voice, “I have something to say.”
Rex’s heart shakes. When he hears what she said at this time, he becomes panic for no reason.
“She is still unstable; she can’t be irritated for the time being. If you have anything to say, go to the
office…”
“Oh.” Lily smirks even without waiting for him to finish. There are mists in her big crystal eyes, “Are you
inconvenient?”
Soon after that, she nods and walks to the bench next to her to sit down, “Let’s talk here.”
Karl wants her to go to his office but he is stopped by Rex’s eyesight. As an outsider, he cannot say
anything but only leave them some space alone.
Rex glances at the woman who is sitting straight on the bench and walks over to sit next to her, “Say it.”
“In the Villa, Marina blocked my parents out of the door, saying that she is your childhood sweetheart,
she is your girlfriend and that I’m the third wheeler. The language is unbearable, which insulted me and
my parents at the same time. My parents were mad and then my dad committed a heart attack. And
Fanny was listening aside, you can inspect her.” Lily says every single word, trying to make her voice
sound less irritated.
She just wants to tell him the facts, whether he believes or not.
After hearing it, Rex is still somewhat shocked. Even though Marina’s feelings for him have always
existed, she has never been so straightforward and chose this way to say frankly.
However, he believes in Lily. For the reason that he does not know Marina would come back from the
North Villa today. She should be back on the fifth day.
And Maxx didn’t report him about her return issue. Thus, there must be a scheme.
In this way, her intention is to meet Lily’s parents in time.
Lily’s vision glances at the man’s gloomy side face. His sight is deep, hiding an emotion that is
unintelligible. However at this time, she is not in the mood to speculate but only retelling him the story,
“I admit, when I saw my father falling on the ground, I was really mad and furious, I even wished to kill
her. But even if her words stimulated me, I just pinched her neck but didn’t want to kill her. Let alone
push her down, I didn’t use any force.”
The man’s thin lip moves as if he wants to say something. However, in the end, he still holds it back.
Rex’s fluctuate chest is full of anger, the bottom of his eyes is locked with cold waves, “Perhaps, you
just think that you didn’t use any force.”
Even if Marina is not a good person, she will not joke about her body by jumping into the pool. She
cannot even swim. Since with a little accident, she cannot even see the sun tomorrow. She will never
hang her life on the line.
When Lily hears this answer, she slightly raises her head to look at him. There is no additional
expression on his face; she has started to be numb and hurt by him.
All the explanations she wants to give him are all crumbled in his simple sentence. It is unnecessary.
Once the person disbelieves you, it is futile to say anything.
She looks at those pair of eyes that is used to bear infinite tender love, at this time, there is only
coldness. Her eyes become misty, “So, you don’t believe me.”
The man’s facial features turn to her direction a little bit, like asking hers and also asking himself, “Tell
me, why did she do this, huh?”
Their eyes meet each other; they were both hurt by the other party. Lily is the first one to move away.
She laughs and stands up along, then shakes her head and drops a few words softly, “I pushed her,
yes, it is me.”
If you cannot explain, then just let it be. Be misunderstood as much as he likes and let her go.
