Chapter 515: Put an End to Past Grudges

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

The wedding gown has been decided, and it's time for Adair to come back from school. Therefore, Lily

and Rex go to the school to pick him up. The car just stops. Rex should have been waiting in the car

like most parents. However, Rex insists to get off the car and stands in the waiting zone for parents at

the school gate. He seems to be declaring that he is Adair's father and comes to pick Adair up.

Lily stands beside Rex. She feels that he is childish, but meantime she's somewhat moved. After all,

Rex had been absent in Adair's life for a long time. Clearly, he is afraid that Adair would be looked

down upon by his classmates for not having a father.

When Adair walks out of the school gate, he sees Rex opposite him at the first glance. He is very

excited. He rushes over to grab Rex and Lily’s arms and calls in a sweet voice, "Mom! Dad!"

Rex carries Adair up in his arms. Lily, who is beside him, widens her mouth in shock. "He's no longer a

little boy. Put him down!"

"It's nothing. He's not heavy. Besides, no matter how old he is, he's my son." Rex doesn't feel

embarrassed at all. Instead, he looks very proud.

Lily could only let it go.

Rex and Adair get into the car, and Lily sits quietly on the passenger seat. Seeing that it is still early,

Rex tilts his head to look at Lily and suddenly suggests, "Shall we go visit your parents? You have

visited them alone since you were discharged from the hospital. I haven't officially visited them yet."

Lily doesn't expect that he would think of Harry. She is a little surprised. "You want to go?"

When Rex is in the same space with Harry, he is always a bit embarrassed. Perhaps it is because they

are all men, and neither of them knows how to express themselves. For Lily, she also finds it somewhat

difficult to deal with the relation between Harry and Rex, since one is her partner, and the other is her

father.

Therefore, she is very happy to hear Rex's proposal.

"Let's go. It just so happens that Adair is here." With that, Rex looks at Adair, who is sitting in the back

seat, in the rearview mirror and says, "Do you miss your grandma and grandpa?"

Adair is solving the Rubik's Cube in his hand. He answers without looking up at Rex, "Yes, and I miss

the dumplings made by Grandma!"

Lily couldn't help but chuckle when hearing it. She takes out her phone and finds Bree's number. "Then

call Grandma and tell her yourself."

Along the way, they talk and laugh. Forty minutes later, the car stops in the RED Community. Lily is

taking Adair to the building where Harry's apartment is located when Rex pops the trunk. Lily is

puzzled, and then she catches sight of several boxes of dietary supplements in his hand.

Lily freezes for a moment and doesn’t know what to say. She lets go of Adair's hand and walks to Rex.

At the sight of the top antler, bird's nest, Chinese caterpillar fungus and so on, she is dumbfounded.

"When did you prepare these?"

Rex does not respond. Instead, he gives her the lightest box and says, "Help me carry one."

With that, he walks straight ahead.

Looking at Rex's back and the box on the ground, Lily doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. Clearly,

Rex just wants to avoid this topic by asking Lily to take a box.

Thinking back to the 'casual' proposal he has made in the car, Lily smiles. It turns out that Rex has

prepared everything.

"Smoldering man!" Lily purses her lips and whispers, her heart full of affection.

They go upstairs and Adair is at the front. Before they could knock on the door, Bree opens the door.

Looking at Adair, she smiles and says with joy, "Adair, my little boy!"

Adair leaps into the apartment and shouts, "Grandma! Grandpa! I'm coming!"

He shouts in an extreme loud voice, as if he wants everyone to know that he is visiting his grandmother

and grandfather.

Lily sighs and shakes her head. She takes Rex into the apartment and greets, "Mom, Dad, we are

coming to see you."

Bree looks at the boxes in their hands and hurriedly puts them against the wall. "It's good to see you

already. There is no need to bring gifts to us every time you come. We are your families, so you don't

have to be so polite."

Lily immediately praises Rex, "I didn't buy them. Rex bought them."

Bree looks at Rex and says, "I know you're a rich man, but you can't waste your money like this. The

dietary supplements you took have not been eaten yet. There have been a lot of them at home. So, in

the future, there is no need to take anything to us."

Rex appreciates the thrifty lifestyle of Lily's family, so he doesn't retort. Anyway, he has done his best.

As for the rest, he just hears and nods.

They get into the living room. Tea and various fruits have been prepared on the table. Adair is playing

with Harry, and his upper body is pressing down on Harry. Lily is a bit worried when seeing them.

"Adair, what are you doing? Don't press on your grandpa."

Harry doesn't let go of Adair. He is extremely happy to see Adair. "It's fine. He's not heavy at all."

"Dad, how are you feeling?"

"Pretty good, just like how I felt before the operation. It's just that the diet is much lighter now."

Lily has been here to see Harry a few times recently. Making sure that his expression has been better a

lot, she feels relieved.

"Lily, I just made the dough. The stuffing has been prepared. One is mutton with carrot, and the other is

pork with parsley. Give me a hand." Bree calls Lily in the kitchen.

Lily immediately rolls up her sleeves and walks over. "Alright, let me roll bread."

Lily and Bree are busy in the kitchen, leaving Adair, Harry and Rex in the living room. Adair doesn't

detect the vibe between the two adults. He just pays attention to the Rubik's Cube in his hand.

Rex watches TV all the time and does not take the initiative to say anything to Harry. He does not know

how to express himself, nor is he good at getting along with the elders. This has something to do with

his leaving home in his childhood and the divorce of his parents.

Harry plays with Adair for a while and pats Adair on the head. "Rest in my room for a while. I'll call you

for dinner later."

Adair nods and jumps into Harry's room.

In the absence of the child, Harry glances at the silent Rex sitting beside him and points at the teacup

on the table. "Drink some tea. It's given by my friend. See how it tastes."

Rex picks up the cup and takes a sip. "Good."

Hearing it, Harry clears his throat and gets to the point. "Are you preparing for a wedding with Lily?"

"Yes, but many things have not been solved yet. It won't actually happen very soon."

Harry ponders for a moment before asking, "Have you told your family about this?"

"They all agree." Rex revealed his intention to his grandparents before. Ever since those terrible things

about Vivian and other women happened, they have been more satisfied with Lily. They no longer hold

any prejudice against her. After all, they are getting old, and in their lifetime, they also wish Rex could

get his happiness. And Adair could return to the Gabbots officially.

"You have a plan. I won't interfere. But Bree and I want to talk with your grandparents before the

wedding. What do you think?" Harry has been thinking about it for a long time. Reaching an agreement

is a must. He agrees but he also has to know what Rex’s family thinks. He couldn’t allow Lily to suffer

from the marriage again.

Rex didn't think of this. Harry's words do remind him. "Sorry, I didn't consider it. If you have time, I can

arrange it this week."

After getting Rex's answer, Harry unloads the burden in his heart. "Alright then, you should pay more

attention to it."

With that, Harry stands up and Rex follows. Harry waves his hand and says, "I'm getting a bottle of

good wine from the cabinet. We could drink some when having dumplings tonight."

Before Rex could say anything, Harry turns around and walks towards the cabinet. Rex looks at the

back of the old Harry and looks down with joy in his eyes.
