"Mr. Noble, where are we going now?" Angelo asked Noble when there were no words between him
and Eric.
Noble didn't answer his question. He turned to the back seat and looked at Eric and Lily, asking, "How
about you?"
"To your villa." Eric answered without thinking.
After hearing what she said, Noble smiled. There was a strange expression on his face. "You… Are you
sure?"
After these words, his eyes lingered on Lily for a moment.
"Of course."
"I have to go back to the company."
They answered almost at the same time. Lily turned to look at Eric and emphasized, "I have to go back
to the company, or my grandfather will worry about me."
Looking at her, Eric didn't say a word but stretched out his hand directly.
Lily was confused. She frowned and asked, "What?"
"Your phone." Eric said flatly.
Lily was even more confused. "What do you want to do with my phone?"
"Give it to me." His tone was not very good, and even a little low.
Seeing this, Lily could not help looking at him for a few more times. She did not understand why his
face changed so fast. But still, she handed the mobile phone to him.
He took the phone and directly dialed a number. As soon as he dialed it, it was connected.
"Grandpa Joe, I'm Eric. Lily is with me. Don't worry. She's fine, OK, OK. I'll take good care of her, OK?"
With a few simple words, Eric hung up the phone. Then he returned it to Lily.
On the other hand, Lily was still in shock. She didn't expect that Eric would call her grandpa in such a
calm manner!
"You, you..." When she came back to her senses, she didn't know what to say. It took her quite a while
to finally speak out, "How could you be so tyrannical? You called my grandpa without my permission."
"You gave me the phone, didn't you?" Eric asked while taking a glance at her.
"You forced me!" Lily said, gritting her teeth, "How did I force you?" He suddenly looked at her with a
faint smile.
Lily was speechless. Well, in fact, she gave the phone to him because he was unhappy and his face
changed.
After a while, she said, "But it doesn't mean that I agree with you to call my grandpa. What will he think
if you tell him that I stay with you?"
Hearing that, Eric suddenly laughed and leaned forward to her. With an ambiguous expression on his
face, he said, "I don't know what he will think of me, but What would you think?"
"You..." Lily blushed and moved aside, "It's none of your business!"
"Huh." Seeing her in such a state, Eric smiled. He stretched out his hand to pull her over and held her
waist tightly.
"You..." Lily protested, looking at him with red face. "What are you doing? Let go of me."
"Girl..." He seemed to call her, or to whisper. He ignored her protest and even tightened her waist.
"Well, I think it's a good name. I'll call you 'girl' from now on."
Somehow, after hearing him, Lily's heart trembled. She even could not breath. "Who? Who agree you
call me that?"
"I like it." He lowered his head and looked at her red face.
But Lily didn't dare to look at him. Her face was as red as a tomato. Normally, when Grandpa called her
"girl", she just felt it was a little familiar, but when Eric called her "girl", it sounded not so familiar.
There was a mixture of love and some unknown feelings in his voice.
Sitting on the seat, Noble had been listening to the conversation between the two people quietly. With a
faint smile on his lips and he would watch the interaction between the two through the rear view mirror
from time to time.
It was not difficult to see that Eric was serious. Although he was only seventeen years old, he had been
certain that even if the knife was on his neck, he would not change.
After arriving at the destination, Eric pulled Lily out of the car, took her by the shoulder and walked
towards the villa, not caring whether the owner of the villa had followed them or not.
"Eric," Lily could not keep up with him. She protested, "Why are you walking so fast?"
She couldn't get used to the European style villa, and she was led into it by Eric in a strange place. It
was inevitable that she felt uneasy.
Eric looked down at her, but did not answer her question. He went to the gate of the villa and directly
input the password. Then he took her into the villa smoothly.
Behind them, Noble shook his head helplessly with a faint smile on his lips. Then he followed them into
the room.
Before entering the room, he made a phone call.
"Brother Ellison, come to my villa. Eric has come, and the girl he likes,"
Then he hung up the phone, walked into the villa, and returned to his room.
Eric took Lily into a room. He pushed her directly to the bathroom door and said, "Go to take a shower."
Lily was stunned for a while. She didn't understand what Eric meant at all. Then she asked, "Eric, what
are you going to do today?"
At this moment, she couldn't read his mind at all. Now, he even asked her to take a shower!
He looked her up and down before he said flatly, "Your clothes are dirty."
Hearing this, Lily looked down at her own clothes. There were indeed some stains of wine and
bloodstains on her clothes, which should be left by accident when she stabbed Carl.
"I don't have clothes." Her voice softened.
"Just go and take a shower." While saying that, Eric pushed her into the bathroom. Then he turned
back and walked out. But before he closed the bathroom door, he added, "If you don't take the shower
after I come back, I don't mind helping you take it."
"You..." Lily's eyes widened and looked at him in disbelief.
Eric didn't care about her words. He just closed the bathroom door.
Then, he turned around and walked towards the wardrobe of underwear. In fact, this room was
reserved specially for him by Noble. He stayed in the room where he wanted to stay in before so that
he was familiar with everything in this room.
Opening the wardrobe, Eric took a look at it and naturally fixed his eyes on his white shirt. At the same
time, this scene emerged in his mind. Last time when he was rescued in the drowning, she wore his
shirt, which was very attractive and beautiful.
So he took off the white shirt without thinking twice. Then he turned back to the bathroom and knocked
on the door. "Open the door."
"What are you doing?" Lily asked cautiously from the bathroom.
"I have brought you some clothes to change." Eric explained patiently.
After a long while, the door of the bathroom was slightly opened, revealing a little white hand with
beads of water on her arm. "Give it to me."
Eric smiled and handed the clothes to her. As soon as he drew back the door, he closed it.
Seeing this, he shook his head helplessly with a smile. Then he turned and walked out of the room.
When he came to the door of Noble's room, he went in directly without knocking the door.
"Why didn't you knock before coming in?" Noble, who was changing his clothes, looked at Eric with a
frown. Noble had taken off his shirt and put his hands on his trouser waist.
"I have everything you have," Eric looked at him with disdain. Then he sat on his bed and stared at him
with his dark eyes.
Seeing his severe expression, Noble raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's up?"
"Thank you for your help today. How is the investigation going?" He asked.
"Ellison is investigating this matter for you. He will tell you in person when he comes." As he spoke, he
continued what he was doing. After taking off his pants, he walked to the wardrobe and changed into a
set of casual clothes.
"Can't you check it by yourself?" Eric raised his eyebrows with disapproval.
Noble raised his head and looked at him, "Do you think I have nothing to do? I have to deal with the
matters of my grandpa by myself and I also have many things to deal with. Can I have to find time to
care about you these matters?"
"That's your business." Eric didn't take her words seriously. "You should at least mind my business."
"Eric," Noble looked at him with a headache, "You are not a little boy anymore. Grandpa has always
wanted you to come back to the Sun family, but his relationship with aunt has been so stiff. He is too
embarrassed to ask you back. Now it's all my fault. How can I have time to worry about you?"
Eric knew that the aunt that Noble referred to was his mother. Their relationship between his mom and
his grandpa had always been bad. Even his grandfather wanted to see him should behind his mother.
He recently knew that when his mother married his father, his grandfather was unwilling, but her mother
insisted and forced death. Even if she finally broke away from the father-daughter relationship, she still
insisted on marrying his father.
He didn't know why his grandpa opposed his mother to marry his father. But seeing that they were
living a happy life now, he was also happy. At least her mother made a right decision.
"It's not that I don't want to help with Grandpa's matter." His voice softened, "You know, I don't pay
much attention to these things. Family business is the thing I hate most."
"Well, if you don't like family business, we can talk about something else." Noble looked at him
seriously. He pulled up a chair and sat face to face with him. "Eric, do you know that if you are not
strong enough, you still have to rely on others to protect your woman? How do you feel?"
Hearing that, Eric frowned.
Seeing this, Noble continued, "You know, with my ability, I don't have to be so bothered to do this. It's
just a word, but I didn't do it. I have informed you in advance. Have you ever thought about why I did
it?"
But Eric still didn't say a word.
"I want you to come here and see by yourself. If you are capable of it, your woman doesn't have to stay
in the police station for so long at all. If not, she maybe would hurt today."
Although Noble only said a hypothetical question, it was also very possible.
