Chapter 140 The Familiar Tactic

LILY'S POVAn hour later, I was in front of the restaurant. Le Jardin, an expensive place usually visited by company owners and investors. Quiet, elegant, and surely no one would interfere.Upon entering, I was greeted by the staff and immediately escorted to the private room on the second floor. The surroundings were quiet, with soft lighting and faint music in the background. Sanders was already there, sitting at the end of the table. He was wearing a dark blue suit, looking calm but his eyes clearly showed sharpness and curiosity. Behind him were his five guards ready to protect him no matter what happened.And I am not that stupid to do something. This is not the right time yet. I still need him.“Lily,” he greeted. He stood up and smiled slightly. “I thought you wouldn't talk to me again.”I smiled back, calm but my look had meaning. “I just had some things to fix first.”I sat opposite him and while the waiter passed by to pour wine on the table, I felt the tension between us —

Chapter 141 Coming back

LILY'S POVTwo hours passed before I returned to the hospital after my conversation with Sanders Chilton. After our talk, I realized only one thing — I am close to achieving justice for my family. I have a strong hunch that Sanders Chilton is behind everything because of his greed for money and position. He even managed to betray his own nephew, how much more a person said to be his friend — my father? I need to gather solid evidence. I can't just rush in. I made a mistake after letting my emotions rule before and I don't want that to happen again.I went straight to the hallway towards the private wing. The way is familiar to me because I've almost lived here these past weeks. When I arrived in front of Wade's room, I was surprised when someone appeared — Wayne. He was leaning against the door, holding paper and with crossed arms. He was still wearing his formal clothes, as if from the office.“Oh, good timing,” he said when he saw me. He smiled, the kind with a mix of tiredness and

Chapter 142 Turning Down His Offer

LILY'S POVI slowly opened the door. The room greeted me — clean, bright, and in the middle, Wade sitting on the bed, wearing a simple gray shirt and pants – so far from the suits he usually wears. There was no more IV fluid attached to him. He was all ready to leave the hospital.“I thought you wouldn't come anymore,” he said.I smiled even though something was aching in my chest. “Of course I'll come. You can't chase me away, right?”I heard Wayne laugh outside before finally closing the door. He left the two of us, me and Wade, in the quiet room. And there I realized — no matter how complicated everything is, I still can't not come back to him, to Wade.Wade smiled when he saw me. “I thought you wouldn't come back. Your cellphone couldn't be contacted either. I was worried. I almost called the police just to have them look for you,” he joked, but I felt in his voice that his nervousness earlier was true.I approached and sat beside him. “I told you, right? I'll be back right away,”

Chapter 143 His Penthouse

LILY'S POVWhen we arrived at the penthouse, the cold breeze of the aircon greeted us. I couldn't help but be amazed. His penthouse is really huge. The space is so wide and the designs are beautiful. It's obvious it was prepared and well-thought. The materials used here are surely expensive too.I turned to him. “You really prepared for this, huh?”“Of course, I told you already. I want to live with you under one roof. So I really prepared for this. I want you to live in a good place.” Wade looked around. “I adjusted it to your liking.”“Isn't this too big? I mean, it doesn't mean I agree, okay. I am just thinking logically. This penthouse is too big for the two of us,” I said softly.Wade signaled his men to bring in our things. So his men quickly obeyed, then he turned to me.“This is actually small compared to the mansion,” he said, smiling at me and holding my hand. “You don't like that? Just the two of us here. We can play around here–““What are we, kids?” I cut him off laughing

Chapter 144 He Knew?

LILY'S POVAfter we ate, we quietly cleared the table. Wade himself volunteered to wash the dishes even though I told him several times that I would do it.“I don’t want you to get tired. You cooked so I should be the one to wash the dishes,” he said earlier. There was a smile on his lips but he was clearly serious about what he was saying.I raised my eyebrow at him. “Do you know how to wash?”“Ah, there’s a dishwasher machine here?” he said innocently.I laughed. “I thought you yourself would wash.” I shook my head. “Fine. Put the plates in the dishwasher.”“You sit there in the living room. I’ll handle this.”I sat first in the living room and he followed after he fixed everything in the dishwasher machine. Now we are both sitting on the sofa. I’m leaning on the side, and he is leaning too. One arm is around me while he gently rubs my arm. The aircon is cold, but his skin beside me feels warm.We were just quiet. No TV, no cell phone, no noise. Only the hum of the aircon and the ge

Chapter 145 You're not alone

LILY'S POV“Of course I know,” he said. “I have my connections, Lily. I don’t want you to lie to me. I want you to be completely honest with me. Bare everything you have and I will do the same.”I felt my chest become heavy. “It’s not as easy as you say, Wade.”Wade's eyes widened for a moment, but he quickly recovered. The tone of his face changed — from tenderness, it became serious.“I had a feeling,” he said softly. “And to be honest, I’ve suspected that person for a long time.”I frowned. “Sanders? But he's your uncle, right?”He nodded slowly. “Yes. But I've had doubts about him for a long time. He was one of the suspects in my kidnapping before.”It felt like my world stopped at what I heard. I stared at him intently. “Wade… are you serious?”“Yeah,” he answered, his gaze straight at me. “Until now, I'm still monitoring him. I have people watching his movements. I am still collecting evidence against him. It probably isn't hidden from your knowledge that he wants to take my pos

Chapter 146 Unexpected Visitor

CECILIA'S POV“Fuck!” I shouted, smashing the flower vase against the wall. Shards flew across the floor, along with tears I've long been holding back.I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe I lost — that he chose her. On the day Wade saved that woman, I clearly saw how he comforted the woman. How Wade hugged her while I was there just watching them.I sat down on the floor, holding my head. “You should be dead, Lily,” I whispered between my sobs. “You should have died!”I closed my eyes. I tried to erase from my mind the scene I want to forget but it's like a broken record that won't leave my mind. I burst into sobs again. I can't accept that the man I dreamed of is gone. We should be getting married by now.“She ruined everything,” I whispered, I could barely recognize my own voice. “She took everything from me. Everything.”I stood up again and looked in the mirror. The mirror I broke in one corner shows my fragmented reflection. “This is not over yet,” I said, "I won't allow al

Chapter 147 Sanders' Cruel Move

CECILIA'S POVHe smiled sweetly at me. We've only talked a few times and I know he's Wade's uncle.“Cecilia,” he said with a nod. “We haven't seen each other for a long time.”“Good evening, Sanders,” Papa said, calm but heavy. “It seems you've wanted to visit us here for a long time.”Sanders just smiled and slowly sat on the single-seater, opposite Papa. I remained standing. I still couldn't believe what was happening. My gaze shifted back and forth from Papa to Uncle Sanders.“I suppose you already know why I’m here,” Sanders said. He slightly raised his eyebrow.“If that's about Wade,” I cut in. “I don't need to beat around the bush anymore.”His smile tilted, as if amused. “Good. I like a woman who speaks directly. You can drop the formalities, Cecilia.”I took a deep breath and sat on the other sofa. I stared at him directly. “Fine,” I said, calm but firm. “Wade called off the engagement. And now, he has another woman. A woman named Lilibeth Russell.”Silence prevailed. Only the

Chapter 148 Announcing their relationship

LILY'S POVI was sitting in front of Wade's desk. I was watching him leaning on the chair — elegant, composed like a king in his own kingdom. His navy blue suit was perfectly ironed. The watch on his wrist was sparkling in the light, and every movement of his screamed authority. He’s aura’s screaming the Chilton’s power – that he is Wade Chilton. He was right, why should I be afraid when I know he is powerful. After our conversation last night, I thought about it and realized he's willing to help me. The fear I feel for his welfare still hasn't disappeared.“Wade…” I called softly. “Are you really sure about this?”He raised his gaze from the document he was reading, and when our eyes met…“Of course,” he answered, straight. “We have to do this, Lily.”I took a deep breath. “But… isn’t it too fast? You don’t need to—”“Lily,” he cut. He stood up and removed the button of his coat. He slowly approached me. With every step of his, I felt every beat of my heart.“They have to know that I

Chapter 149 The Show

CECILIA'S POVCHILTON GROUP – PRIVATE PARKING AREAI was sitting in the passenger seat. I was watching the man I love, Wade Chilton, and the woman I hate, Lily. My fist clenched when I saw the two holding hands tightly. My head got even hotter. I don’t really get Wade’s action, falling in love with someone who’s below our status. Not from a rich clan but from a criminal family. How could Wade fall in love with her?Suddenly Wade obeyed. He took something from his pocket and that was his cellphone. He still wasn't letting go of that woman. My eyes widened when I saw Lily holding a blade while Wade was unaware with his back to her. Wade looked at her and she quickly hid the knife she was holding behind her. Wade said something but I couldn't hear because we were far from their position. I saw Wade move away for a moment. He walked slightly while talking to someone on the other line. Lily was left alone. She had her back to the whole parking area. And there — there I felt intense happine
