Alex’s summer house that was located halfway up the mountain was usually kept empty. That was because Alex was not often in South City. Ever since Jane had left, that place had become even more desolate. Originally, as Alex was going to spend many days in South City, Sebastian did not want to let him stay at that place. Sebastian had already arranged a place for Alex to stay, but Alex just was not willing to stay there. Alex insisted on staying at the desolate place halfway up the mountain. This was because there were Jane’s shadows everywhere here. Also, because Jane had been kicked out of this place by him. Therefore, every single time he came back to this place and sat in the large living room, he would think of that day from three days ago. The way he kicked her out was calm and heartless. She had left so quietly, and she did not even say anything to pester him. Every time he thought of it, Alex wanted to raise his powerful fist and violently punch himself in the head. It would

She could console him! She must console him gently!Lily was not afraid of Alex’s cold and stern gaze. She just walked seductively towards Alex, swaying her hips from side to side. It would be best if she was able to sleep with Alex right there that night.“Alex…” Lily became slightly gentler. She raised her slender wrist and stroked Alex’s icy cold face. “Don’t be sad anymore, Alex. I know you’re heartbroken. If you need me to, I’ll accompany you to go look for her again. How about that? I’m very sorry. I was impulsive back then, and I was too full of myself as well. If I hadn’t returned, then you would not have chased her away, wouldn’t you? It was all my fault. I was the one who caused you to lose her. I’ll accompany you to go get her back now, alright, Alex?“Although…” At that point, Lily suddenly got a little choked up. She covered her face sadly and her tone became slightly more miserable. “Although I love you very much, I know you don’t love me anymore. I will not force you,

“Darling Alex, you have loved me for ten years. Was that all fake? You’re the man I love the most in this world! It was you who told me that you have been loving me. Were you lying to me? Not only do you not love me, but you want to beat me to death too? You actually would beat the woman you had loved for ten years to death?”At that moment, Lily had no other better way but to keep reminding Alex that she was the girl whom Alex had once loved the most. She wanted to use that to let Alex pity her, then only she could escape death. This was because she could tell Alex truly wanted to get her killed by beating her up that day. Alex had indeed stopped. Lily had a sense of joy as if she had escaped death. “Darling Alex, you could not bear to beat me up, right? You still love me very much. You had once doted on me very much and was very tolerating with me…”Alex suddenly pinched Lily’s chin so hard that she felt as if her lower jaw was going to be shattered. Alex did not have the inten

Rose was speechless. Indeed, this news came too suddenly. She was first surprised, but then she held Lily. “Oh, my daughter-in-law, is…this all true?”Lily was secretly happy in her heart. She could clearly figure out Rose’s thoughts and feelings. All of Rose’s sons had passed away. She was already old and she needed someone to lean on. Therefore, she took out all of her properties to send Holden abroad. At that moment, Lily was pregnant with Holden’s child, which also was equivalent to giving additional bargain chips to Rose. In the future, this child would be Rose’s grandchild, and there was a saying that the bond between grandparents and grandchildren was strong!“Godmother, are you…still willing to acknowledge me as your daughter-in-law?” asked Lily. “Of course! Of course, I do!” Rose turned her head and looked at Sean. “Darling, don’t you acknowledge her as your daughter-in-law? Sebastian is not close to us, and he kept treating us as his enemies. Now, Lily’s pregnant with Hol

“Dad, she can’t just abandon as she pleases. And then when she comes looking for me ten years later, I still have to be waiting for her in the same place? She returned after ten years! If she were to return after twenty years instead, am I supposed to wait for her until I’m old and grey? Am I supposed to not get married and have children in this life then?”Old Master Poole was speechless. There was a pause before he sighed. “It’s not that I don’t know this reasoning, but son, our family and the Parker family have been friends for generations! You would rather have the maid than her…”“Friend for generations?” Alex sneered miserably. “Our families have been friends for generations, and yet, she dumped me for ten years? Would a family friend be so cruel to harm the woman I loved?”“What are you talking about?”“You think of Jane as a maid, but she also thinks of herself as a maid. She is not willing to be your daughter-in-law at all. She already got married in the northeastern regio
