Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Rex gets out the ward and order the security guard to keep an eye on Lily and to make sure she does

bit see Adair. Then, he walks toward Karl's office.

Karl is studying the medical record of a heart surgery case when hears the opening sound of the door.

He is stunned to see Rex dressed in such a weird way.

"Are you... escaping?" Messy hair, hospital gown, black suit pants and swollen face, looks like he is

running from a mental hospital.

Rex is in a too bad mood to bear jokes. "Do you have a spare shirt? Lend me one."

Karl takes a shirt out of the closet, a striped one that he only wore once and looking at Rex's

conditions, he prefers not to ask questions. He noticed though the red bright scratches on his neck

must be very painful.

Karl's brows twitch, and he tries to figure them out, "You, wouldn't you be..."

"No." Rex directly interrupts Karl's unreliable thoughts. He grabs the shirt, and as if he was alone in the

room, he goes on changing clothes.

Karl is astonished. His whole back is completely covered in scratches and red marks. "Your back...

what the hell happened?" He could not keep quiet.

Rex curls his lips sardonically, "That is Lily for you. Is it that bad?"

Being an outsider, Karl is surprised, and there are too many things he does not know. So he goes on

asking...

"When did you meet her?"

"Just now, Adair was sick and called her."

"So you just defiled my hospital..."

"Yep." Thinking about his feelings, makes him feel stupid. He is anxious and he says sincerely,

"Probably was better to hold it off."

He knew everything Lily was going to say. He would not flirt with her nor approached her in any sexual

ways even though he wanted to have sex with her so bad.

Rex was sure to be rejected if he had tied. She looked somewhat distracted, he never thought that she

would use her own body to get something.

Karl observes Rex putting his shirt on and fastening the buttons, "Where is Lily now?"

"I have no idea, I sent her away."

"..." Karl keeps wondering the situation; it has always been the other way around. Lily is the one who

always sent him away. Has the sun risen from West today?

As a true friend, he still has to persuade Rex, "If you need to talk to her, try doing it kindly. What would

you like to do with this woman?"

What's more, for him, she is the one.

Rex tucks the corners of his shirt into his trousers, rolls up the sleeves up to the elbows, and

indifferently goes, "Kindly you say. Would she listen? A man gotta do what a man gotta do."

"What is it then?" Karl frowns slightly, unhappy to see them still fighting after all these years.

“She wants Adair? That is not going to happen.” Rex takes out his mobile phone from his pocket and

dials the number of the Han Yu Law Firm, the one who was in charge for the divorce case, "Lawyer

Zhao, write a draft regarding the custody of an unmarried mother. I need it by tomorrow."

Karl still wonders how Rex orders left and right. Because of a long lasting friendship, he is certain Rex

is not just messing around. He is dead serious and that scares him.

Rex hangs up the call and Karl rushes to persuade him, but unfortunately Rex walks is out of his office

before he could even speak.

"Rex, Rex..."

The man listens to no one and watching him walking away, Karl sighs helplessly. Is it the wisest

decision?

...

When Rex gets back to the ward, Adair is already asleep, his big eyes are closed, and his small mouth

opens regularly, snoring.

He sleeps blissfully, totally unaware of the ongoing war between his beloved parents.

Seeing Adair's innocent face, he gradually softens his heart, hardened by Lily's actions. He sits on the

bedside to kiss his son goodnight while his mind cannot stop thinking about that irritating woman.

He left earlier and now he knows nothing of Lily's whereabouts.

Although he controls himself all the time, he is aware of his own strength. She suffered a hard blow, will

she be able to endure?

And he is worried again. His feelings cannot be suppressed so easily. He should have waited to check

on her, he is thinking.

In that moment he was too angry to think straight, he just wanted to get away from her, as far as

possible. It was just to prevent him from saying more and hurting her over and over.

She made the first move and made him lose control for the excitement. From heaven he threw him into

hell with a few words. He is dying inside.

That irritating face flashes in front of him, making him grits his teeth. He met many women in his life,

but they are all nothing compared to Lily. She looks soft, but she is the toughest of all.

If she wanted to see her son, why not playing it nice? Why making up all these bullshits? Why Ryan

agreed to all of this? Disgusting! He should not let her come to the hospital in the first place.

She is smart, but sometimes not even her, can understand her true intentions.

Rex (this old man) is tired, but what can he do? He keeps falling in love with this woman who brings

nothing but troubles to him. His only choice is to endure it.

...

Lily, after crying a river, dresses and leaves.

She wants to go see Adair, but when she is approaching his ward, she notices two tall men standing

outside the door. They were not there before, that is Rex's doing.

After that harsh experience, she doesn't have the guts nor the strength, her whole body is still aching,

and she looks like shit. Lily, for the first time ever, retreats. She keeps looking at them from distance

and then she turns around and leaves.

As soon as the elevator's door is open when it comes down in the parking lot, she runs to the car and

finally, in that closed space, she feels safe.

Not even five seconds of peace that the phone suddenly rings in her handbag. Ryan is calling.

What is the worst thing that could happen...

She lacks self-confidence now, clears her throat and picks up, "Hi?"

"How's Adair?" Ryan's calm voice reaches her troubled mind with a reassuring power.

"He is doing great, he just ate too much."

Listening to her voice, Ryan asks worriedly, "What did he do to you?"
