Let's Get Married

The negotiation broke down. Lily is worn out. When she calms down, the party has come to the end. Rex left in advance. In no mood to stay there, she goes home with Ryan.

On the way home, she is thinking about the next steps, checking her phone frequently, and even reading the details of the divorce cases file.

As she looks too agitated, Ryan takes her phone and turns it off. He says in a slightly imperative tone, "Have a rest. Don't think anything else."

Lily can't sleep at all. When she thinks of what she did, she laughs at herself, "I'm so weak."

She hasn't said such self-depreciating words for a long time. Ryan frowns in displeasure, "Don't say that. It's not your fault. Those to come will come sooner or later."

"But I haven't made full preparations." Lily lowers her head, trembling with a long sigh, "I'm incapable of dealing with it."

She has never expected to reach such an impasse. She thought although there was no love between them, they could have an honest talk for the sake of the child. She even planned to let Adair get to know Rex and tell Adair Rex is his father someday. But Rex's family and Vivian messed up all her plans.

She wants to leave and keep the child from the mess.

Ryan spins her round to face him, gazing at her, "As a mother, you did nothing wrong. If Adair knows what you did for him, he will be so grateful and will love you so much."

"But it's true that I left without notice five years ago. If that can be proved, I will be at a disadvantage in the fight for the custody and even the investigation into Melly's death will be reopened." It's like a heavy stone on her chest. She can barely breathe, "You will also get involved."

"You know I don't care."

"But I care. It's not fair to you. I..."

"Lily," Ryan cuts her off with a serious look, "I'm happy to help you out. You don't need to feel sorry. If you want to be good to me, then don't mention that again."
