Lily winked and said with a smile, “But what if I don’t want them to clear up the misunderstanding?”Odell’s gaze darkened.Lily said hastily, “I was just joking. Why are you so serious?”Odell’s expression was still grim as he said, “I don’t like this kind of joke.”The moment he finished speaking, he walked to where his car was parked. Lily walked beside him. “Okay. I won’t make these kinds of jokes in the future.”Odell did not give her a reply. Instead, he walked to the car and got in. “Young Master Carter, do you miss your ex-wife?” Lily suddenly asked. Odell’s gaze went dark and his whole face turned gloomy. “No,” he replied. Lily looked flustered, but after a few seconds, she regained her composure. With a smile, she asked, “Do you have any plans for a second marriage?”“No.” Odell’s tone was still cold, but it was not as severe as it had been earlier. Lily did not know whether to feel relieved or be depressed. She said in a resigned tone of voice, “Alright, I

Bang!After the phone fell to the floor, he kicked the table in front of him as well, and caused it to flip. The wine glasses shattered all over the ground. Odell remained sitting in the same spot. The anger roiling in his eyes was even scarier than the mess on the floor. Cliff stepped back out of fear. He pressed his lips together, not daring to make a sound. The man shouted, “Bring more alcohol here!”“Okay!” Cliff replied and ran out hastily. The dim private room was soon filled with the smell of alcohol. The man had become so utterly drunk that he did not smash any more phones or flip any tables. Instead, he was playing with a wood-carved tortoise. He continuously rubbed it in his hands as if he wanted to crush the tortoise to pieces. Ding. The untimely ringing of a phone rang out in the air again. Odell raised his gaze and looked over.

He saw the webpage of a local economics newspaper’s gossip section on the screen.This section would often post some gossip news about celebrities in Westchester City.Currently, the headlines were about him and Lily.He immediately saw a picture of when he and Lily had walked out of Lush Heaven and another where they were enjoying breakfast together.The paparazzi had been very good at capturing the pictures. Even though they had not had any physical contact, they looked intimate in every picture and appeared to be like a couple who were in a relationship.The captions for the pictures reinforced this idea even further.For example: “We’ve heard from Lush Heaven that Miss Springsteen spent the whole night in the private room with Master Carter.

Odell fell silent. “I remember.”“I hope you could agree to be engaged with me.” Her beautiful eyes widened, staring hopefully at him.Odell pursed his lips, and his expression darkened.Lily looked at his face and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t force you to marry me. I only want to make my grandfather feel better. After we are engaged, if you think I’m unsuitable to be your wife, I will find a way to talk to my grandfather and break off our engagement.”Odell’s gaze eased as he glanced at her. “It will be a hindrance to your future and a waste of time.”Lily’s lips curled into a smile, and she shrugged. “As long as Grandfather’s health improves, I don’t care.”Odell’s mouth tightened into a thin line as he kept quiet. “I’ll give you a reply by tomorrow morning.”Lily’s eyes lit up. “Okay, then I won’t disturb you anymore.”After that, she got up and walked out.Odell leaned toward his chair and gloomily closed his eyes.……Two hours later, Cliff pushed open the door and came i

She took each step down the stairs steadily as she headed towards the shuttle bus at the airport’s exit.The bus was heated.It was warm inside, and someone offered their seat to her not long after she got on.She thanked the person and sat down.The shuttle bus moved steadily along the road.After a while, the man who had given up his seat for her answered a phone call. The conversation on the other end of the call could not be heard, but the man hurriedly replied, “Okay, Dad. I know Master Carter and Miss Springsteen are getting engaged tonight, and I don’t want to miss their ceremony either, but there’s only this flight today. I just got off the plane and will rush over immediately. Don’t worry. I’ll be there in half an hour.”After that, he ended the phone call. Sensing so
