Let's Get Married

In his thirty-odd years of existence, he has never been scared of anything since adulthood. But this time, his determination is defeated by her crystalline tears.

It is better that he hasn't spoken but as soon as he becomes gentle, her tears continue to flow until her words become mumbles.

Rex doesn't take another step further but retreats. His body couldn't react in time and he looks at the woman's naked body intensely.

He turns and takes his jacket and places it on her shoulders. The jacket is very big and is able to cover her crotch.

After doing these, he backs off and takes out a cigarette and lights it. He draws a smoke as if to use the smell to cover what had happened.

The fire which accumulated for five years cannot be doused so easily.

In the quiet room, the woman's sobs pierce onto his ears. They are not loud but they pierce right into his heart.

At this moment, someone knocks on the door and the assistant says with urgency, “Mr. Rex, Miss Lily's phone is ringing.”

Lily takes a deep breath. At this time the call shouldn't be from her office and no one from her circle of friends would call her at this hour unless it's from Ryan or Adair.

When she thinks of them, Lily feels tense again. She looks behind at him and sees him smoking with his head lowered. After a while, he walks to the door and takes her phone in.

Rex's sullen eyes notice the name on the screen, Ryan.

Rex frowns slightly and eventually gives her the phone. If he doesn't, she may cry out again.

Lily takes over the phone in a hurry, almost snatching it. She sees that Rex expresses his displeasure and flinches a bit.
