Let's Get Married

Chapter 599: 'Concern' for a Rival in Love

Adair twitches his little mouth and obviously he looks unhappy, "Did dad ever take me there? I almost forget."

Rex’s hands on the steering wheel tighten. Adair is blaming him for not being with him for so long.

No matter how he feels, it is all because of him, no one else to blame.

Too much promise has been made but broken one by one unexpectedly. Till now, Rex, as a father, dare not to make a promise anymore, but he tells himself that he will be more careful and caring for his boy ever after.

Lily is listening to them, looking at this little young face. She is not willing to see him being embarrassed, so she takes the initiative to explain, "Adair, in fact, it is because of mum this time, dad had to take care of me. You know he misses you so much.’’

Adair is always a smart and sweet boy, but it has been too long this time and he is feeling hurt, "Mom, you said I would not be alone anymore."

In the end he grows up with Lily, he can be in a temper with Rex but there is only grievance when it comes to his mum.

Lily does not remember what she has said to him. That period of memory lost includes all the information about this boy. But when they have eye contact, her heart melts immediately, "I am sorry, it is mum’s fault.’’

She still remembers how she resisted and cringed when she woke up to find out she had such a boy, and she even thought about leaving him alone unless she can wake up with some memory.

But now look at this lovely child in front of her, she is feeling guilty of the previous thought.

Perhaps it was out of a mother's instinct that she can not leave the child alone or let him be any sad. Any emotion showing in his face can easily touches her.

On the way to the restaurant, Lily keeps comforting Adair. He is finally getting better before arriving there.

Rex books dinner in a high-end French restaurant. It has been three days since he comes back with Lily, and for the time they have been on the focus. Whatever photographed will be at the front page of the news. He gets used to this, but it will never happen to his dearest family.

The restaurant has been used for vital meetings among big names, so the level of privacy and service is high enough to be reassuring.

After seated, looking out of the window at the large clouds that are stained red by the setting sun, Rex and Lily feel much relieved.

After ordering, Rex makes an extra order of caramel pudding. He loves but not often eats it due to health concern. This time he is making an exception in order to please the boy.

"Did you just say that Ryan took you on a trip? Where did you go?" Rex asks during the meal.

Adair tells it like it is, " City Q."

City Q is not very far from City J. It is surrounded by the sea on three sides with a good environment, suitable for traveling and relaxation.

"For how many day? Was it fun?"

"Two days, Ryan took me to eat seafood and we went to the seaside, we also went to a very big sky wheel... Oh right!" Adair suddenly comes out with something as his eyes turning bright, "and Eunice Tyrone, she was with us!"Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

"Eunice Tyrone?" hearing this unfamiliar name, Rex frowns. "Who is she?

"She is a friend of Ryan. She is being so, so, so good to me. She bought me little gifts and being nice to me like my mum." Speaking of Eunice Tyrone, Adair’s face is full of joy. Children are always so simple that from their expression you can tell if they are being treated well or not by someone.

It's just...

Rex raises his eyebrow and is very curious about Eunice Tyrone, who is she? What kind of woman can be with Ryan?

"You say Eunice Tyron is a friend of Ryan?" Rex repeats.

Adair nods without hesitation, "Yes, but I think Eunice Tyron likes Ryan so much."

Kids and adults’ idea of ‘like’ should be totally different. But for Ryan, Rex is very sure that if it is just a normal relationship, Eunice Tyron would not meet Adair.

Although now he has a stable relationship with Lily, Rex should still keep an eye on Ryan as he is the man being with Lily for 5 years.

So Rex continues, "what about Rex, does he also like Eunice Tyrone?”

Adair rolls his big eyes, nods and shakes his head, then says hesitantly, "It doesn't seem to be... When we were in City Q, Eunice Tyron left away in anger because of Ryan."

"..."

Well, too early to be happy.

He just knows that. From what he has known about Rex. He is absolutely not the person who will fall in love with someone easily.

Adair doesn't understand the complex from Rex’ eyes. He cuts a piece of steak and puts it into mouth, looking at Lily, "Mum, why don’t you say something?"

Lily is playing with the small corn on the plate quietly. Being suddenly noticed, her hand holding the knife shakes a bit. It is not she refuses to talk, but she just can't get a word in completely....

She knows nothing about Ryan or Eunice Tyron, so she can only smile bitterly at this moment. "Mom is having dinner, a little hungry."

"Oh." Adair does not suspect, but chews two more pieces of steak and asks again, "mom, haven't you seen Ryan for a long time? He seems to have been looking for you recently, and sometimes he would ask from godmother."

Lily feels awkward, and she tries hard to response, "yeah, I haven't seen them for a long time too."

Rex sees this and once again he changes the subject before Adair realizes. "How are your lessons at school recently?"

Lily relaxes, and finds that the corn on the plate has been cut into several pieces unconsciously. She quickly puts the food into the mouth in order to escape being in a dilemma.

It is not something serious but only an ordinary meal, while she eats it with her heart on the boat.

After dinner, they walk around the mall downstairs. Buying Adair his favorite toys, they drive home.

Fortunately, Adair falls asleep on the way back home. Rex wants to take this opportunity to say something to Lily but is stopped by her for fear of waking Adair. If so, there would be much trouble again for her.

When they return home, Fanny takes Adair back to the bedroom. Lily goes into the master bedroom and closes the door. Till this moment, she takes a deep breath and in the end she can put herself at ease after this long day. When she looks up, she sees a man lying on the bed with a deep smile.

"Who are Ryan and Eunice Tyro exactly? Do I know them well? Is the godmother Abby? Does he have any other godmother?"

Rex puts down the phone, sitting up a little straighter, and pulls Lily in between his strong and powerful legs. He takes a look at the nervous and bright small face. ‘'I don't know where to start with all these questions.'

"Just tell me what you know, or I'll be exposed. I'm afraid to talk about anything tonight. I got so nervous every time Adair talked, you know... AH!"

Before she finishes, a big and naughty palm in the back pushes her head down for a few seconds, and the man gently raises his head and covers it up...
