"Let's go. It's time for us to go inside." Lily pulled Eric's arm and reminded him.
"Yes." Eric frowned and answered absently.
A look of confusion appeared on Lily's face. When he talked with Mr. Simon and Mrs. Jade just now,
she didn't speak all the time, because she really didn't want to say anything to them.
However, when she saw that Eric frowned and seemed very preoccupied, she noticed that it was not
because of the conversation between he and Jade and Simon, but because his eyes were always
focused on the mother and son.
She had some memory of them. The last time when Kerr proposed to Tina, she took Eric to the mall to
buy some clothes. When they came out of the clothing store, they happened to meet the mother and
the son.
"Do you know the mother and son?" She asked.
"What?" Eric was confused and took a look at Lily. But when he just finished the question, he reacted
again and immediately said, "I don't know them. I just feel that they look familiar."
He did not tell Lily the truth because he did not want to get her involved into the troubles in Gu family.
"Okay." Lily replied and stopped asking.
"Lily, Eric, what are you doing by the door? Come on in." It was Tina urging them from the room.
"Mom, we are coming." Lily put her head in the box and nodded. Then she took Eric's hand and walked
inside. "Hurry up, mom is urging us."
However, they all forgot that the first meeting between them was actually the one when she walk the
wrong room.
On the other side, they walked out of the hotel and found a cafe nearby to sit down.
Dale and Ethan were sitting face to face with Simon and Jade.
"Hehe. I didn't expect that he has so much courage. In order not to avoid me, he went abroad." There
was a touch of sarcasm in Dale's voice.
"You push him too hard." Simon looked at Ethan and said, "This kid looks like Eric, especially his eyes."
"They are all the kids of Richard. It's normal." "I didn't expect that Richard would do this thing out side.
Now that his child has grown up. Don't ever try to measure the water with a rough brain," she continued
with a fake smile.
Hearing this, a touch of displeasure appeared on Dale's face. She did not like this Jade because she
was too clumsy with words. Apparently, what she said showed that she looked down on her.
"As for men, how many wen will not?" She raised the corner of her mouth, and her red lips looked very
charming. Her eyes quickly glanced at Simon.
A trace of awkwardness flashed across Simon's face, but he quickly kept calm, as if nothing had
happened.
"You are right. But Simon don't." Jade replied with a proud look at her husband. "We've been married
for so many years, and he have never slept outside. Even when he was on a business trip, he called
me every night."
Dale smiled and didn't say anything. After all, it was their business. As an outsider, she couldn't say
anything about it.
An unnatural look flashed across Simon's face. He reached out his hand and patted on Jade's
shoulder. "Well, we are not coming to talk about this matter."
Hearing that, Jade stopped talking.
"I'm not in a hurry." With a scornful smile, she continued, "I have worked so hard to raise him these
years, but he has never paid me any attention and has been leading a comfortable life. When I found
him, he even refused to admit that he had cheated on me. I can't let it go."
When she told Richard that he was his son, his look was really disappointing.
"If he did as I planned, maybe he wouldn't travel abroad with Angela in order to avoid you." "But it's a
good thing that they are traveling abroad now. I'll take you and your son to Mr. Gu. As for his
descendants, he will never allow child outside."
While saying that, he kept his eyes on Dale and observed her expression secretly.
Dale's purpose was very simple. She wanted to let Ethan come back to his family as soon as possible.
Although Ethan was already sixteen years old, he still lived a life of uncertainty with her. It was unfair to
him.
When she heard these words, she didn't show any anxiety. Instead, she calmly turned her head to look
at Simon and said, "Do you mean that your father will admit him while he is abroad?"
"Don't you think it's the best time?" Asked Simon.
A cold smile appeared on Dale's face. She didn't answer his question, instead, she turned to Ethan
who kept silent, "Ethan, what do you think?"
"Whatever." He answered lightly.
"He is just a kid. He can't make decisions by himself." Jade looked at her with dissatisfaction.
"Although he is just a kid, he will have his own ideas whatever he does. I will listen to him," said Dale
with a frown.
"You will spoil him." But Jade didn't agree with her.
Not going to answer anymore, Dale took a look at her, then turned to look at Simon and said, "Then
let's meet Mr. Wayne. It's good to let him know about the existence of Ethan in advance."
"Okay. I'll arrange the time for us to meet." Said Simon with a smile.
"Yes."
When he saw that his mother was talking with Simon, he didn't say anything. He looked at them
carefully.
On the birthday of Lily and Becky, the two families were supposed to get together, but in the end, Alice
had to go back to the company because of her work. She couldn't make an appointment, so only Becky
came.
As they had lunch in the hotel and didn't arrive at home in the evening, they changed the place to the
manor.
In the evening, there were only a few people in the group, including Kerr, Tina, Eric, Lily and Becky. As
for Andrew, he had to go back to the company after lunch because of work.
Inside the manor.
The other people were chatting in the living room while Kerr and Tina were busy with their work in the
kitchen.
"What's wrong? Becky." Becky could not help asking when she saw that Becky was not in a good mood
and even a little depressed.
"Mom was accused of plagiarizing," she said, raising her head.
"Plagiarized?" Lily frowned.
"Yes." "She's a talented person. How could she be a plagiarist? She went to the company directly after
getting a call from Ken."
As for Ken…
The man's face appeared in Lily's mind as she heard the name again. She remembered that she didn't
like the man very much when she first saw him after her rebirth.
In her previous life, although she had something to do with the bankruptcy of Alice's company, the man
named Ken was actually the chief culprit.
If she was right, he was directly responsible for the plagiarism.
"A clean hand needs no washing. She will be fine." Lily tried to comfort her.
"But this competition directly impacted the reputation of her designer..." Becky lowered her head and
kept rubbing her fingers. "If her reputation is ruined, she will not be able to survive in the fashion world."
Seeing her like this, Lily let out a sigh of relief. Last time, she had told Alice to pay attention to him, but
she did not believe her at all.
"She'll be fine." Lily couldn't find anything to say to comfort her, so she had to say so.
As for Ken, she had to find enough evidence. The reason why she knew he was bad was because of
the memory of her previous life.
"Eric," Lily suddenly called out Eric's name and looked at him with bright eyes. "Could you do me a
favor?"
What a smart man Eric was! He could tell what she was going to do from her expression.
But he couldn't promise her so easily. When he glanced at the pendant hanging on her neck, he felt
very upset.
Seeing that he did not say yes immediately, Lily lowered her head and said to Becky, "Have a seat first.
I have something to discuss with Eric."
Before Becky could react, she had already walked up to Eric and said, "Let's go upstairs."
Eric raised his head and glanced at her, but then he looked away immediately to avoid eye contact with
her. Why was that damn pendant so dazzling!
Realizing his abnormality, Lily was confused. Who irritated him again? Wasn't everything all right just
now? Why did she feel so strange this time?
"What's wrong with you again?" Lily bowed her body forward and got herself closer to Eric.
When she bent her body, the pendant hanging from her neck kept dangling, which irritated someone
even more.
He stood up and took her hand without looking at Lily.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Lily was very confused by his sudden move.
"Don't you have something to talk with me upstairs?" Holding her hand, they went upstairs. Eric said,
"Let's go upstairs now."
Lily sensed her bad mood. He seemed to be angry. But she didn't provoke him. Was it because she
had been comforting Becky and hadn't talked to him just now?
How could it be? Was he too mean?
It was a room which happened to be Tina's room, so he pulled her directly into it.
He had come to the balcony once before. When Lily almost had an accident, she had called him while
crying.
