After school in the afternoon, on the way home, Claire always pointed her nose towards the sky, and
did not look at Lily with a hum.
For such a childish behavior of hers, Lily chose to ignore. She did not want to argue with her.
When they arrived home, Lily got off the car and entered the house.
Claire was not very fond of this. Thinking of last night and this afternoon, she was even angrier. She
quickly ran after her.
But Lily was not slow, so when she went upstairs and was about to walk to the bedroom, Claire caught
up with her, grabbed her, and said angrily, "Lily, don't be proud, don't think you have a brother to protect
you, I'm not afraid of you at all!"
Lily frowned, looked at her and said in a low voice, "Let me go."
Her tone obviously irritated Claire. Not only did she not let go, she even strengthened her strength, "I
will not let you go How dare you hit me?"
"Let me go!" Lily said with a stern tone. If she weren't afraid of staying at home, she would slapped her!
"No way! Hit me if you can!" She even put her face closer to Lily.
Lily clenched the other hand into a fist unconsciously and then loosened it. Her eyes were gloomy and
slightly squinted. Lily pushed her away and turned to open the bedroom.
Being pushed a few steps backwards, Claire finally could steady herself. When Lily was about to close
the door, she rushed up and pressed against the door. Then she roared, "Lily, you bitch! How dare you
to push me!"
"If you still want to badger me, don't get out of the way, or you will be caught when the door is closing."
Lily reminded her coldly.
"You bitch!" Claire shouted angrily. She ran towards Lily as fast as she could.
Lily quickly moved to the side and dodged her attack. The backpack on her shoulder was grabbed and
Claire pulled the backpack off her shoulder.
Lily quickly grabbed her schoolbag backhanded, and she glared at Claire, "Claire, don't overdo it!"
"Who is out of line? Who overdo it?" Claire looked angry, "It was you who pushed me first, and you also
wanted to use the door to clamp me. You hit me first, how can you blame me?"
Lily really didn't want to be entangled with this rogue, she wanted to grab her schoolbag, but Claire was
dragged it.
She pulled, she pulled, and eventually they formed a 'tug of war' situation.
"What are you doing?" Eden asked sternly when he saw the scene. But his slightly serious eyes were
fixed on Claire.
"Brother, she started it." Claire complained.
Eden looked at her and ignored her words. "Let go of Lily."
"Brother..."
"Let her go!"
"Well, you only help her. I'll never call you brother again!" After that, Claire fiercely threw away the
backpack in her hand, glared at Eden, turned around and left in anger.
As they were arguing, the zipper of the bag was opened, and the things inside almost fell out.
Lily hurriedly bent down to pick up. At the same time, Eden also bent down to pick up.
He handed her the book that he had picked up and said apologetically, "I apologize to you on Claire's
behalf."
Hearing that again, Lily smiled. She took over the book from his hands and looked at him. "I said, I
don't accept such apologies."
Hearing no response from her, Eden looked at her in silence. Nobody knew what he was thinking
about.
"If you don't have anything else to say, just go. I will have a rest now." Lily asked him to leave. She was
holding the doorknob, ready to close it at any time.
"Remember to have dinner tonight." Then he left the room.
Lily was surprised. She didn't know why he cared so much about her.
Eden turned around and left. But he stopped as soon as he took one step forward. He frowned and
looked down. When he lifted his foot, he saw a black pen.
He bent down and picked it up. When he looked at it carefully, he felt surprised, it was a recorder.
He turned to look at Lily's door. He hesitated if he should knock the door and return it to her. At the
same time, he was curious why she brought the recorder pen with her.
After struggling for a while, driven by curiosity, Eden finally chose to go back to the bedroom.
After returning to his room, Eden did not immediately change his clothes to go to the dinner party held
by the Gu family this evening. Instead, he held the recorder pen and walked around in the room,
wondering if he should listen to it.
He felt as if he had intruded into other's privacy. But what was going on? He couldn't even imagine. In
his impression, Lily was always obedient. Why did she bring a voice recorder with her?
He thought about it for a long time. Finally, his curiosity triumphed over his sensibility. So she played
the recording.
"Woo Please stop Please let us go, I I promise, I will never Never trouble for Lily What do you want to
know? We will tell you..."
"Who ordered you to do this?"
"No, nobody..."
Next came the sound of punching and kicking, along with whining.
The voice from the recorder pen was very mixed, mixed with the male and female voices. Eden
frowned and listened for a long time before he felt relieved. This strong and weak begging was from
York and Sheena. Although he was not very familiar with them, he could still recognize them.
"Please stop! Please stop! There's really nobody asked us to do this..."
"Say it or not? If you don't tell me, your nude photos will be spread online soon."
"No, no! Don't take our nude photos. I'm telling you, I was trying to beat Lily after the middle-level
exam, but I accidentally hit the wrong person. Hit Hit Claire..."
The voice from the recorder pen sounded intermittent, and the more he listened, the more frowned
Eden was.
"In order to make her happy, we uploaded the photos of Lily and Eric on the campus Internet."
"That's it?"
"Yes, that's it. No one incited us. I've said everything that should be said. You guys..."
In no mood to continue listening to the conversation, he listened to the recording very clearly about the
Claire's being hit and the disturbance of the public opinions of Lily and Eric.
It turned out that all this had something to do with Claire. Although she didn't get herself involved in it,
she did indirectly get her involved.
Thinking about it, Eden sighed helplessly and looked at the recorder in his hand. Although he had
eavesdropped on someone's privacy, it was necessary to return it to her.
At the same time, he had many questions to ask her. Suddenly, the scene that her waist was full of
bruises appeared in his mind. Subconsciously, Eden thought that the injury was also related to this
matter.
Standing in front of Lily's room, Eden raised his hand and knocked on the door. The door didn't open
for nearly two minutes. Once again, he knocked on the door. Accompanied by his deep voice, he said,
"It's me. I have something to return to you."
Soon, the door was opened from inside. Lily was in a bathrobe, and her hair hung down loosely. Water
was still dripping from her hair. Obviously, she had just taken a shower.
He handed the recorder pen to Lily. "Give it back to you."
Looking at his hand, Lily was a little surprised. It was the recorder pen that Eric gave to her by Becky
last time. Why was it in his hand?
"I picked it up outside the door just now." Seeing her, Eden explained.
Lily realized that it fell from the stairs when she was fighting with Claire just now.
"Thank you." She took over the recorder pen and closed the door. Before the door was about to be
closed, she was stopped by Eden's feet. "I have something to tell you."
Lily looked up at him, as if waiting for him to say something.
"It's more convenient to talk about it in the room." While speaking, he had already pushed the door and
entered Lily's room, closing the door behind him.
Lily didn't stop him. She took two steps back and asked indifferently, "What do you want to say?"
"I've heard all of it." Eden confessed frankly, "Did you hire someone to hit them and even take their
nude photos?"
"What do you mean?" Lily looked at him in confusion.
"Didn't you listen to this recording?" Seeing her reaction, he blurted out his doubts.
She hadn't heard it. After she got the recording pen from Becky, many things had happened that she
almost forgot about it.
She didn't think too much and turned on the recorder. Since Eden had heard it, she had nothing to fear.
As soon as she heard the conversation between the two women on the recording pen, Lily could not
help but know what had happened. That night, when Eric took her to see how the two women had been
hit, the two women had been far away from them. So Lily couldn't hear clearly what they had said.
After listening to the recording from beginning to end, she looked up at Eden and said indifferently, "You
can think as you like."
"What happened to your wounds?" Eden asked again.
"It's none of your business." Lily said indifferently.
It never occurred to him that she would be so indifferent to his words. He didn't know what to say. At
this moment, he heard Lucia's voice from outside.
"Eden, Claire, are you ready? It's time to go."
After taking a deep look at her, Eden turned around and opened the door. Before he left, he said, "I
believe that you didn't hire people to do this."
Lily smiled. It was not a sneer. It was a true smile. She suddenly felt that Eden was not annoying.
However, listening to the recording, she was also confused. Did Eric really taken their naked photos?
At the same time, she understood why they did such a violent thing to revenge her. They must think
she was the one who instigated them to do so.
