Lily thinks of the agreement between them, but...
"How can we get married before you recover? I've heard that weddings are exhausting" Right now, Lily
is most worried about his health. She has waited for so long, so she can wait for him a bit longer.
However, she doesn't know that these words are a serious blow to Rex's self-esteem.
He immediately retaliates, "What's the problem with my physical strength since I can still make love to
you?"
In other words, he can do everything now.
"..."
Lily is speechless and is going to ignore him. Although this man looks cold and aloof when he is
outside, she is the only one who knows how frenzied and immanent he is.
After saying that, Lily doesn't say a word to him on their way home. He turns around and looks out of
the window, but the atmosphere in the car is extremely good.
Upon arriving at the Imperial View Garden, Adair hears the sound of the car's engine and rushes out.
He runs towards the car happily. Rex immediately opens the door and goes down to hug his son. "Do
you miss me?"
"Yes." Adair's soft voice is so cute that he is quite happy. "But I miss Mom more."
"..." Rex's eyelids twitch. His son is really something. By a few words, Adair has made him ecstatic first
and suddenly depressed.
Well, Lily, who is his mother, is more important to him.
As soon as Lily gets off the car, Adair immediately releases his father's hand and held his mother's. His
face was full of happiness. "Mom, I miss you so much..."
Rex is a little uncomfortable, but he really has not done it well before. He can only follow behind the
mother and son towards the door.
As soon as they enter, Fanny immediately greets them and takes the luggage over. "Welcome home,
Mr. Rex and Miss Lily."
"It's good to be back." Lily changes her shoes and treats Fanny as if she were a family member to
them. "We have kept you busy in the past few days, Fanny, thank you."
"No, I'm not tired. I know that you and Mr. Rex are coming back today, so I let the nanny leave first.
Someone has been helping me out for the past few days, and I don't feel very tired."
Rex goes upstairs and changes his clothes first. When he comes down, it is almost lunchtime. Fanny
has already got prepared. She has cooked more dishes than usual, in order to welcome them back.
Lily's physical strength has been overdrawn for the past few days, so she goes upstairs to have a
shower and lies on the bed for a while, and she falls asleep immediately.
Rex plays games with his son downstairs. Adair has the habit of taking a nap. After lunch, he becomes
incredibly sleepy. Rex tucks him in and returns to the bedroom. As soon as he pushes open the door,
he finds the petite figure lying on the bed.
The man stops in his tracks and stands there for half a minute before walking to the bedside.
After gently picking her up and putting her away, he pulls the thin quilt from the side and covers her. A
few strands of hair scatter on her fair face in a messy manner. He carefully combs her hair, and his
movements are very gentle for fear of waking her up.
She must have been exhausted in the hospital these past few days. When she is asleep, her breathing
is exceptionally heavy, and he has dark circles under her eyes.
Rex looks at her haggard appearance. At the same time, his heart aches because he blames himself
for not taking good care of her. Fortunately, she is with him now, and he has the opportunity to take
care of her.
Rex bents down and gives her a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Have a good sleep, darling."
He climbs onto the bed and lies beside her. He takes out the phone at the bedside and checks the
pictures that the designer has just sent to him. All of them are wedding dresses. When he sees the
pictures, his heart softens. He looks at the pictures one after another and carefully selects them.
A month later, Rex almost recovers. Everyone knows about his return, but they don't disturb him. They
know that he has a lot of things to attend to. It happens that everyone is free recently, Lily invites them
to their home.
Karl is naturally the first one to be invited, and they also invite Orson and Pehry. The four men sit down
on the sofa in the living room and start to tease Adair after they greet Rex.
Rex can't bear it anymore and carries his son over, "If you like kids, you can have your own kids. Don't
mess with my son."
"Why the fuss? Rex, don't be so stingy!" Pehry is still joking, "If I could give birth myself, I would already
have my own kids."
Hearing this, Lily glances at Karl. He takes Sally with him today. They have been together for so many
years, no less than Rex and her. Although Orson and Abby have not figured everything out, they are
keeping each other company. Pehry is the only one who has been single for years.
"Pehry, is it that you want too much or you don't want a girlfriend at all? You have been single for so
many years!"
When Pehry hears this, he sincerely assures her, "Lily, in my current situation, how can I stay single I
have met someone I like? I don’t want to be single forever. It's just I haven’t met anyone."
"Then..." Lily nudges Rex with her elbow and says, "Introduce a girl to Pehry."
"Introduce a girl to him?" Rex says teasingly, "Don't let him do harm to the girls."
Pehry hurriedly says, "That's right, Lily, don't worry about me. I'll try my best to find a girlfriend, and I
promise to bring one by the end of this year, okay?"
Lily looks at his expression of being forced and smiles helplessly, "Alright, I believe you."
Fanny has prepared hotpot for dinner, which is easy to prepare and can warm them up since it's getting
cold now. Many ingredients and foodstuffs that she uses are not available on the market. The soup
stock of the pot is pork tripe with chicken. Adair likes it very much.
Pehry likes to drink some wine. The atmosphere is quite good. Lily is against it first because she is
worried that Rex won't be able to withstand it. But Karl has someone take some medicinal wine from
the trunk, which is harmless and not highly alcoholic. It is definitely within the range that he can accept.
They haven’t seen each other for a long time. Rex is in a good mood. Men find alcohol hard to resist
when they get together. Lily understands this and does not stop him.
They don't finish their dinner until 9.30 pm, Adair is tucked in by Fanny. Thanks to the good sound-
proofing walls, they don't affect Adair.
The hotpot is still boiling, and the steam drifts out of the pot and dissipates towards the light above. In
the end, no one eats any more, and they just chat on.
"Rex, you're recovering pretty well now. Have you thought about what to do after that?" Orson is a bit of
a workaholic, and he is indeed looking out for Rex.
Rex is very calm, "Not yet."
"Do you intend to stay in the investment business?"
They all know that the reason why Rex has entered this industry back then is not passion, but an
unexpected opportunity when Lily was not around.
Orson has always thought that they know that his dream is to become a lawyer. Whenever he leaves
the pitch-black office building alone in the dead of night, he would think of the time when they had
fought side by side.
Orson can't help but ask, "Why don't you come back? Our company has too much business right now,
so I can't do it myself. I can't be at ease if I hand it all over to someone else."
Back then, Lily had been imprisoned because of a miscarriage of justice, and there had been another
series of incidents. In fact, everyone understands how great the impact of this incident is on Rex.
Therefore, after so many years, no one has ever mentioned this again.
But now that Lily has returned, everything is gone. Adair is not a baby anymore, and many things
should be put down. Moreover, Rex truly loves the law, and he has paid a lot.
As he finishes speaking, the dining room falls into a brief silence. Just as Karl is about to say
something, Lily suddenly puts her hand on the back of the man's hand. Her eyes are filled with love.
"Let's not talk about work first. Han Yu Law Firm is where we first met. I really want to go back and take
a look."
When she says this, she has already shown her opinion. Lily is really a smart woman. She doesn't
embarrass everyone, and also gives Rex the space to make his own decisions.
She just wants to tell everyone that she doesn't care it anymore.
Rex meets her gaze and his calm eyes suddenly fluctuates. He asks her uncertainly, "Do you want to
go back?"
Lily nods happily, "Alright."
Orson is delighted. "You can drop to me at any time. Rex is just too decisive. Back then, he suddenly
didn't go to work. He threw all the tasks to me, which made me extremely busy."
"Orson, can I also go then?" Pehry jokes beside.
Karl glances at him and says coldly, "Are you going to cause some trouble?"
The topic changes, and the atmosphere becomes lively. Seeing that it is almost 10 o'clock, they all
prepare to leave.
Lily and Rex send them to the door and watch as the cars disappear before turning around and
entering the gate.
After preparing for the dinner, Lily feels that she smells of hotpot. "I'll go and take a shower upstairs
first."
"Alright."
There are many rooms in their home, so Rex has a shower in the guest room.
Lily picks out a red silk nightgown with slings. The skirt can only cover the middle of her thigh, and the
lace crocheted flowers make her more attractive. Her hair hasn't dried yet, so she walks out with a
towel wrapped around it.
Rex has finished washing. He looks around and finds that the door of the bathroom is open. Before he
can see anyone, hazy mist is scattering out. She pushes open the door with the back of her fair hand,
and a bright red figure appears.
She is 1.67 meters tall, neither too tall nor too short. Her legs are in a good proportion. The lower half
of her body shows her as a relatively slender figure. However, her breast and butt are very plump. Her
arms are so straight and slender, and her entire body is exquisite as a doll.
Rex likes her to wear a brighter color, which can make her skin look fairer.
He unconsciously swallows his saliva and controls himself not to look at her chest. By the time she
walks up to him, he has already restrained his emotions. He looks up at her, as if nothing has
happened and says, "Are you ready?"
His voice is faint, but only he knows how much desire he is suppressing in his calm gaze.
