Let's Get Married

Chapter 249: Staying Downstairs All Night

Lily is terribly panicked and immediately pulls the curtain down deadly. At the thought of him being downstairs, her heart beats quickly. She is very nervous and there are some ambiguous feelings in it.

She walks over to the bed to sit down, and coincidentally, the phone that is thrown on the bed rings. By clicking on it, it is Rex—

‘I’m not joking with you about what I said. Think about it carefully, then tell me the answer.’

Lily really wants to send him a refusal word right now. But after several attempts, her fingers on the screen still fail to press on it. Rex has never been a soft-hearted person. His style of doing things has always been in the strictest enforcement. Even though it seems that there are some dictatorships in dealing with some issues, it is precisely because of this that he has such a strong leadership posture.

If this text message does not indicate his phone number, she will never believe that it is sent by Rex. But it turns out that it is indeed sent by him personally.

In order to retain her, he has used both hard and soft tactics and he has never been more humble like this. It’s not like Lily is not touched, but when thinking of Marina, it’s like a fish-bone stuck in her throat.

She cares because she loves this man so much, she minds whether he belongs only to herself, she cares everything about him.

Just when she is out of her sense, her phone vibrates again— This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

‘I won’t let Marina disturb our life again, as long as you can come back.’

If this sentence is put before this matter, she will agree without hesitation. However now, it is inevitable to scruple more. She is afraid that she will repeat the same mistake if she is not cautious; She is not a purely emotional person but she has experienced so much that makes her extra cautious.

After a short pause, Lily’s fingertips land on the screen and type a line: I will consider it.

Click, send.

The screen of the phone dims as time passes. The man does not reply. Lily turns off the light and quietly approaches the side of the window. Downstairs, the car stays still.

She sits back on the bed and lies on her back. Her head is very chaotic with various kinds of thoughts. While thinking about it, she eventually falls asleep. She has a dream with Rex, Marina and herself. In her dream, they travel together and encounter danger; Rex drags Marina away, leaving her alone in danger…

However, at this moment, a very familiar face appears in the dream, Ryan. The man seems to be fallen from the sky and stands in front of her, then reaches out to her…

“Ah!” Lily sits up from the bed violently, sweating all over her head. The sky is already bright outside the window, the sun rises. She can vaguely hear the sound of car bray and people bustling downstairs.

Lily sits quietly for a moment and raises her hand to wipe the sweat on her head; She is a little short of breath, fortunately, it is only a dream.

But soon, she frowns, wondering why she dreams of Ryan. Perhaps, the encounters these days she went through are too bizarre, which are deep in her memory.

“Lily, are you awake?” Bree knocks from the outside of the door.

Lily lifts her quilt and puts on her shoes before getting out of the bed, then walks to the door and pulls the door open, “Yes, what’s up, Mom?”

“About your father’s lately operation. I’ve asked Aunty Vicky, she said that part of th fee can be reimbursed but the medical record and the total bill of payment needed to be printed from the hospital. If you’re free today, take care of it. Your father and I will go to the insurance office to ask.”

After resigned, Lily has nothing to do either. She then nods, “Okay.”

“You’re not looking well, why don’t you rest for a while?”

“It’s because I’ve just woken up, don’t worry, Mom.”

“Okay, then get ready and come out to eat.”

After Bree left, Lily closes the door, then dresses and washes up. Her hair is tied into a bun, which is neat and clean. After everything is done, she pulls the curtain away and subconsciously looks at the place where the car stopped last night. The car has already gone.

She feels a bit depressed. She forces herself to withdraw her eyes, not daring to think too much.
