Lily's eyes get red and are filled with tears because of the pain. She cries, "It hurts..."
Rex can't hold back his worries anymore. He walks around the table and leaned over to hold Lily into
his arms. He is worried about her, but he says unfriendly, "Stop moving if you feel pain!"
Before leaving, he glances at Abby, who has a clear consciousness, and says, "Stay here and don't go
anywhere."
...
After leaving the bar, Rex directly puts Lily into the passenger seat. When he gets on the car, Lily has
fallen into a nap with her eyes closed.
When Rex looks at her calm and harmless profile, and he thinks about her behavior of lying and
sneaking out to get drunk, he loses all his patience and love. He starts the car and drives fast.
Lily almost has a sudden sprain in the lumbar by the huge inertial force and she feels sick. She opens
her eyes in a daze and tries to see the situation clearly. However, she can't think. She whispers, "Slow
down..."
Rex is angry that Lily dares to request him when she is drunk.
He sneers. Not only does he not slow down, but he also drives faster. However, he tries to avoid rapid
decelerations. Maybe he is afraid that she would vomit.
Along the way, Lily doesn't stay quiet. She complains that the light in the ceiling is too bright, the seat
belt is too tight, and the trees outside the window move too fast....
Rex can't be any angrier. He is so enraged. If the person sitting beside him were not Lily, he would
have kicked him or her out of the car.
The car finally drives into the courtyard of the villa. However, Lily stays in the car and refuses to get off.
Rex wants to force her, but he fails to catch her with great difficulty because of her dodges.
"Are you going home or not?" he asks with a stern face.
"No, I don't want to go home," Lily replies without hesitation. His voice is soft because of alcohol, but it
is no weaker than a nuclear bomb when it hits Rex.
Rex smiles and looks around. However, his smile quickly disappears. He turns his gaze back to her.
Looking at her red face, he slams the car door and says, "OK. Stay in the car for a night."
Lily is dumbfounded by the loud sound of the door closing. The light in the car is off. She looks out of
the window. Unexpectedly, she only sees a leaving figure.
He is leaving.
People who get drunk are sensitive and fragile. It is well shown in her.
Her upset and grievance is magnified infinitely. She is sadder as if she is abandoned by the whole
world. She bends down and hugs her knees to curl herself up.
Rex walks to the door of the villa and is about to enter the password. His concern about Lily finally has
the upper hand. He turns around and looks at car. The streamlined sports car is quiet, and he can't see
the people inside.
When he thinks that Lily might have left, he can't help but tense up. He struggles with himself for a long
time, but he is unable to ignore Lily.
"Shit!"
He walks back to the car. As soon as he walks close to the car, he unlocked it with remote car door
opener. He opens the door. He thinks that he would see a quiet sleeping face, but to his surprise, he
sees that she is curling up.
Rex is at a loss for a moment. He keeps the door open with a hand and says, "Get off."
Tears fill her eyes when she hears him return. But she pretends not to hear him and doesn't move at
all.
Rex is about to be irritated by her stubbornness. When he sees her slightly trembling, he can't help but
feel distressed. He says in a soft voice, "Lily, get out of the car and go home with me."
"I'm not going home," she says and sobs like an angry child.
Her sobbing voice quells Rex's anger. He sighs helplessly, "Why don't you go home?"
"You don't want me anymore."
Rex is confused.
He frowns and asks, "When did I say that I don't want you?"
He wishes to stay with her every day and he never thinks to leave her.
What Lily says next answers his question.
"You're going to take that case. You don't want me anymore..."
In the dim night, Rex's eyes darken. He watches her insist on ignoring him. So is it all because of that
case?
Her cries break his heart and he can't get angry anymore.
He falls for her, and he can do nothing but love her.
Rex thinks that Lily is sent to torture him. She always has a way to soften him. Even though she is the
one who gets drunk, he thinks that it is his fault.
Rex sighs silently. He crouches down and says softly, "I want you. To me, you are the most important."
"You're lying. Work is the most important thing to you." Lily thinks that she is pitiful. She complains
unreasonably, "I don't want you to take the case. You said that I didn't have the integrity and
responsibility as a lawyer. It seems that I'm a bad person. I'm just worried about you. Is it wrong for me
to be selfish? I don't want you to leave me anymore. I'm scared..."
Although everything has passed, but she will never forget the feelings of the experiences. She is
insecure, and she is especially afraid that Rex would leave her.
When Lily finishes speaking, she feels a hand touch her back gentle. The warm hand moves from her
neck to her back, giving her strength and warmth.
He softens his voice and says word by word, "I won't leave you. I will do what I promised you. Work is
nothing more than work for me. You are the only one I can't lose." His voice is attractive and she is
moved.
Lily finally looks up at him and her face is covered with tears. She is a mother of a child, but she is still
a fragile girl who longs to be loved.
"Rex, it's not that I don't want you to go..."
Before she can finish, Rex suddenly interrupts her and says, "I'm not going to take the case, okay?"
Lily looks into his black eyes and is lost for words for a moment.
"I won't do anything that you don't like. I'll only listen to you."
