Rex's assistant Fraser personally drives to send Lily back to her apartment. On the road, the mood in
the car is tense. Lily looks out at the scenery rushing past. She is still thinking of the warm and cold
moments with Rex and is lost in her thoughts.
Fraser notices her uneasy demeanor and looks at her in the rearview mirror and asks out of concern,
“Miss Lily, do you want to listen to some music?”
Lily comes to her senses and after a few seconds, she nods, “Okay.”
After five years, she is very nervous when she sees Rex. She is also very suspicious of his assistant,
she doesn't know if he will go back to report to Rex about her condition.
Just when her thoughts are running wild, Fraser speaks again, “Actually you don't have to worry, to
others, Mr. Rex looks very serious and cold but he isn't like that towards you.”
With what happened just now and now that he says this, Lily asks him in return, “How do you explain
what happened just now?”
He won't harm her but he ignores her situation and violates her.
Fraser is silent for several seconds and looks like he is figuring out his reply. He has proper education
since he was young and he also feels that what happened tonight was not fair to Lily, but…
“I know that you will find it difficult to accept what had happened tonight but Mr. Rex never meant to
harm you. He simply got too excited and happy when he saw you, and probably had lost some of his
reasons.” He had been by Rex's side for three years and after these years he has a good
understanding of his boss's temper and character.
Rex has never lusted for any woman and never gone out of line. Though he doesn't regard women too
highly, he is always respectful. He will never harm Lily just for a moment of pleasure, this is definite.
Lily seems to understand this logic but she doesn't want to admit it because only with this can she find
a reason to hate him.
For this reason, her expression is sullen and her voice agitated, “You are his subordinate and will
naturally speak up for him.”
Fraser opens his mouth but eventually keeps quiet. He indeed is trying to seek some justice for Rex
and wants to help his boss explain but his intelligence tells him that Lily is no longer willing to listen. It is
pointless to say anything more.
That's why he calmly apologizes and then maintains his silence.
The car proceeds and is stopped at the entrance by the security guard. Lily doesn't let him drive in and
exits the car.
She walks with the night breeze and it is already very late. There aren't many homes with their lights
on. She then sees the house that is brightly lit after looking around.
The lights are still on and they most likely are the dim wall lights.
She doesn't think too much and knows that Ryan must be anxious. She walks quickly to the lift and
goes up to her level.
“Ting” the lift doors open, Lily sees the lights brighten up through the gap between the door and the
floor. She steps out from the lift and sees a man smoking in the corridor.
She is shocked for a moment as she didn't expect to see him in the corridor. She walks over to him
says nervously, “Ryan? Why are you here?”
“Waiting for you.” He takes a long draw of the cigarette and then flings it into the bin. His sharp eyes
shift onto her body and looks at her from head to toe repeatedly.
Lily couldn't stand this inspection and feels flustered. She didn't intend to tell him about bumping into
Rex. She has owed him so much over these years. She doesn't wish to hurt this man because of her
issues.
With Lily's understanding of him, if he knows about it, things will certainly become more complicated.
“Something came up tonight which I had to attend to. It's not very important, you need not work.” Lily
worries that he can sense that something is amiss and changes the topic, “is Adair asleep?”
“Initially he was looking for you then he was too tired and fell asleep.” He said calmly without any signs
of abnormality.
Lily is relieved, “You can go back.”
After saying, she walks towards the door and she didn't expect a strong yank. She yells “Ah!” as she
was startled.
The next moment her body is pushed towards the wall and he props her up until her toes almost leave
the ground. The light on the ceiling lights up and she stares with her eyes wide open at the man,
“Ryan?”
He remains silent and only now she sees the suspicion and disappointment in his eyes. He looks at her
pale face and he quickly lowers his head…
Lily expects him to kiss her and turns her head to avoid him. She shuts her eyes and then realizes that
he did it to get closer to sniff her neck.
Sniff?
Lily curiously opens her eyes and then looks at him with wide-opened eyes, “What's wrong?”
Suddenly he became mad; it is entirely unlike him.
“You have another person's scent on you.”
This sentence shatters all her pretense. She never expected that these simple words will one day be
used on her.
It is like a lie is being exposed, in order to keep it from him, she can only use another lie, “You should
know, there are many people during these gatherings, and it is inevitable…”
“Lily.” As if he can't hear her nonsense anymore, Ryan interrupts her and purses his lips, “Do you know
that you will bite your lips whenever you lie?”
She is not used to lying, that's why each time she lies it would be detected.
Ryan usually will disregard it as long as it's a small issue; he is willing to play along. But today…
She comes back with another man's scent and he is furious.
It is clear that Lily doesn't detect that his mood is at the limit. She is still thinking of how to improve this
lie.
She reluctantly musters a smile, “I really don't have any other matter. What can there be, it's just an
evening party, you are too sensitive.”
“Really?” The man's tone was light.
Lily nods, “Really.”
“Ah,” He laughs and carries her to the stairwell; this is a blind spot to the security cameras. He doesn't
want anyone to see what's going to happen next.
Lily has never seen such an expression on Ryan. She already had a traumatic night, so now she is
even more defensive of herself, “Ryan, what are you doing? Adair is still waiting for me… ah!”
Before she could finish, Lily yells instinctively. He grabs her collar and her neck hurts and suddenly,
something is pulled downwards.
He is removing her clothes?
Lily is terrified and her face turns pale, her hands try to prevent it but she is too late…
Ryan looks at the collar bone and stops. He doesn't need to look any further. He has seen what he
doesn't want to see.
There are several traces of love bites on her white and tender skin. That person must love her collar
bone so much and couldn't resist kissed several times.
His feelings stir and his eyes burn with fury. He releases his hands and furiously asks, “Tell me, who
touched you?”
