After being taken away by the police, Lily is not treated coldly. She is placed in a single room of the
detention center. Even though the space is small with no windows, there are at least a chair and table.
“Ms. Lily, stay here please. We’re just going through the process. The staff will come later if needed.” A
captain of the police station is very polite. He is extraordinarily friendly towards Lily.
Lily barely forces a smile, “Okay, thank you.”
“It’s okay. Sorry for putting you in such inconvenience.”
After the captain goes away along with the police, she is left in the room alone. By looking at the empty
white wall around her, she still has some strange feelings. However, upon thinking that Rex is working
hard for her somewhere she could not see, she does not feel that uncomfortable.
As long as Rex is there, she can hang on.
There is no clock in the room. Her communication tool is also taken away. Without any concept of time,
everything seems to be still. The fine dust particles in the air seem to be frozen, except for her
breathing.
A series of shocking yet sudden incident makes Lily exhausted. When she is half-lying on the table,
she finds Rex’s face constantly lingering in her mind. Within half an hour, she can’t even lift her eyelids
as if they were hung with heavy stones. Not long after, she falls asleep deeply.
At this moment, Ryan, who hears the news comes over secretly, is sitting in the office of the
commissioner, drinking a tea. He looks at the picture on the screen and does not speak.
“Mr. Ryan, I’ll have people take you there now…”
“No.” Ryan raises his hand to interrupts. He takes a look at the woman on the screen calmly, “Let’s talk
about it later.”
The commissioner is somewhat puzzled. Ryan was anxious to meet Lily just now. Why did he suddenly
change his mind?
Instead, the assistant next to Ryan understands his temperament. For fear of disturbing Lily’s respite,
Ryan would rather wait for her to wake up before visit.
It is just a surprise that this is the first time Ryan has such compassion for a woman, which is bizarre.
And this man sits on the sofa and drinks the green tea in his hand as usual, and then looks up around
the room from time to time.
It is only a small police station. If he was abroad, he could take her away right away. Things would be
much easier.
