Let's Get Married

Chapter 693: Cherish Your Beloved Ones When They Are Still Alive

"Do you have any cigarettes?"

Karl pulls open the drawer and throws an entire box of cigarettes to him.

Rex immediately opens it. It's evident that he is quite anxious. Sitting beside him, Lily can see his fingers trembling violently.

When he puts the cigarette close to his mouth, the cigarette is even slightly crooked because of his trembling hand.

Lily knows that he is trying his best to suppress his emotions.

Over the years, he has lived and worked independently, and he rarely has the opportunity to stay with his family. Besides, the complex family environment has led to his lonely character.

This doesn't mean that he makes light of his family. On the contrary, he values kinship the most. It's just that he doesn't know how to express his affection to his loved ones.

Since he always conceals his true emotions, he tends to feel extremely sad and powerless when facing such a situation.

Rex quietly finishes smoking a cigarette. Actually, his mind has gone completely blank. To be more specific, he is in a trance for he has no idea what to think about.

As long as he thinks of Grandpa's illness, he is too distressed to keep thinking.

After stubbing out his cigarette in the ashtray, Rex finally says, "Karl, let's all ... get ready."

It's out of Karl's expectation that Rex will say this after remaining silent for a long while. He thinks that he will refuse to believe in reality and ask him to propose more feasible plans like before. It's to his great surprise that Rex tells him to get mentally prepared for the worst result.

Perhaps it's because Rex's words are too unexpected, Karl paused for a moment after hearing this. After a while, he nods and says, "OK. I will try my best."

Rex remains expressionless, and he looks as calm as a pool of stagnant water. "My grandfather also knows about his own physical condition, right?"

"Yes."
