They face each other, one is resentful, while the other one is deep and serene. On the basis of his old
scheme, Lily is not his opponent at all.
Ryan suddenly raises his hand, and the man that followed behind him in the corner immediately steps
forward to deliver a thin smoke. The misted smoke blocks them and the atmosphere eases up.
However, Lily only feels that this person is insane. Smoking in the cold wind? He might have wasted his
time for her.
As time passes, Lily gradually becomes anxious and begins to worry about Abby. She then could not
help softening her tone, “Mr. Ryan. I am in a hurry; I’m truly grateful that you’ve helped me, but please
let me go….”
“Lily.” Ryan suddenly calls her name, his thick eyebrows gather together a bit, his eyes fall on the
cigarette. Wondering what he has been looking at, he smiles, “This is the third time we met.”
The first time, on the outskirts of the fishing pond. The second time, on the island. And the third time, at
this moment. He has never had such a relationship with anyone. It is really… marvelous.
“It is indeed a coincidence to meet three times. But I believe this is not a surprising thing for Mr. Ryan.”
Ryan shakes his head, “Everyone who has met me for more than three times—”
He mutters and then moves his hand that is holding the cigarette to his neck and makes a slight
gesture. It is obvious what the meaning is.
If it is others, Lily might think that he is exaggerating. But for Ryan… she has seen the appearance of
this man holding a gun and did not hesitate to pull the trigger.
It is too shocking and too frightening that is hard to forget till now.
Lily lowers her gaze and feels a little panicked at the bottom of her heart. She has not figured out how
to respond to his words, and a refreshing smell suddenly struck her nose. Before she could clearly tell
what it is, her chin has fallen into a pair of dry palms.
“Ah!” She whispers and takes two steps backward, her back is against the rough concrete wall, which
is very hard.
The man controls her firmly with only two fingers, pinching it tightly even with a little pain. He raises her
chin and forces her to look at him, “I’m talking to you, what are you thinking?”
The woman’s eyes become panic like a frightened bunny. The watery black eyes seem to be able to
shed tears just with a little effort. However, Ryan knows that she will not cry, she is not a soft-hearted
person.
Sure enough, the panic in Lily’s eyes turns into anger a few seconds later, “don’t be rude if you still
wanna good talk!”
Ryan laughs, thinking that this woman needs to be taught a lesson, otherwise, she will never obey.
Without saying anything, he looked on her body in a meaningful way, then speaks indifferently, “I know
you’ve had a bad day lately. What I’ve promised before still count.”
Bad day…
Lately, she has tortured by Marina and Rex’s issue, and Harry’s illness. Also, she quits her job.
Everything is ridiculously awful. But how did he know?
Lily’s sight tremble with fear, “Are you investigating me?”
