Let's Get Married

Before Lily can reject, Rex is already calling his assistant and asking him to order food from the best porridge restaurant from the north of the city. He says to Lily, “I bought two kinds of porridge from this restaurant before, and Adair liked them both.”

Hearing he mention Adair, Lily gets softer and says, “His stomach is not too well. You should be careful with his diet.”

“I know.” Since the last time that Adair suffered from indigestion, he becomes more careful with his diet and asks Fanny to make some targeted food for him.

Abby watches them talking. The scene is kind of harmonious. She blinks her eyes and thinks it’s time that she should leave now, “I have some work to do...Is it okay that I leave now?”

Rex has been waiting for this and says, “We are fine. You can go now.”

“...” Does he have to be so straight?

Abby’s mouth twitches twice. Then she gives Lily’s phone back to her and thinks of what Ryan said, “Oh! I almost forgot. Mr. Ryan called you this morning. I told him that your phone was left in my place. And he asked me to have you contact him.”

“It’s fine. I can call him now.”

Abby nods her head and grabs her bag from beside, “Then I had better get going now. Call me if anything happens. I am always free.”

Lily looks out of the window. It’s getting dark. They arrived at the hospital in an ambulance, so Abby didn’t drive her car here. Of course, she can’t drive her back now. But Abby has been taking care of her for a whole day, she can’t just let her go back alone.

She looked at the man sitting beside with a bit embarrassment, “Can you...”

“What is it?”

Lily gets more embarrassed, “Can you... Can you have someone drive Abby back?”

Actually, this is nothing to Rex, but still, he is a bit shocked, because this is the first time that Lily asks for his help face to face since her return.

Rex truly feels happy now. It’s so good that she directly asks him for help when confronting obstacles and problems instead of seeking his help through other people.
