Let's Get Married Chapter 197 No Matter How Long, I’ll Wait for You

Lily’s outstretched hand freezes, then quickly withdraws it and places it back on her thigh, feeling a little
flustered, “I took it off just now when I washed my hands, and I forgot to wear it. I, I’ll wear it now…”

She hurriedly takes the diamond ring out of her pocket, and puts on it as sudden as a flash of lightning,
then reaches out to give him a look, “See.”

However, Rex does not respond to her. The side of his face is like being covered with a layer of frost,
the tightness makes her heart cool.

The atmosphere in the car becomes a little subtle. Lily swallows secretly. She knows that she has
stepped on Rex’s vulnerable spot. Her whole body is on a repression breath. She does not dare to say
anything. For fear that one unfavorable word will become a blasting fuse.

Even though he says nothing, the speed increases a lot.

Around seven o’clock in the evening, even though it has passed the rushing hour, there are still a
number of cars on the street. The oversized SUV shuttles in the traffic. After endures it for a long time,
Lily still could not hold back and persuades him in a low voice, “Drive slowly…”

Rex seems to be deaf and still driving fast. Over an hour’s journey, it only takes forty minutes for him.
The car stops at the entrance of the villa. Lily is dizzy and pale with his driving speed.

Unbuckling the seat belt and hopping off the car, she feels much better after standing.

After a stretch, she turns to look at the person who is sitting on the car, unmoved. There is a little
depressed feeling, she then pulls the door and stares at him silently, “Aren’t you going to get off?”

He then fixes his gaze on her. His pupils seem to be covered with a mist, making her difficult to see
clearly.



He says nothing and waits quietly. However, after quite some time, the petite woman, who is standing
in front of him, is still silent. His patience has gone and then pulls out the dashboard to take a pack of
cigarettes. While handing it to his mouth, he says, “If there is nothing else, you go ahead.”

Lily just realizes the seriousness of this matter. She then grits her teeth and steps forward to sit in the
car again, “I didn’t remove it on purpose, don’t be angry…”

“Not on purpose?” Even though he is asking her, there is a doubt in his tone.

Lily is too speechless by his word because she… did it on purpose.

She is afraid that when Bree sees it, she will interrogate her. Thus, she deliberately removes it and puts
it in her pocket. As for what her motives are, Lily does not truly understand. Maybe she is too nervous.

Rex lowers the car window a little to ventilate the smoke inside the car and the air outside. Even though
he is really upset right now, he still cares about her feelings.

This kind of care has become one of his subconscious habits.

The two of them sit in the car in silence. She does not know how to explain it to him.

In the moment of silence, the cigarette has burned until his fingertips. He reaches out for another box of
cigarettes in the car and draws the butts out.

Lily realizes that he is about to reach for another one. Her delicate brow slightly furrows then raises her
hand to grab his arm, “Stop it, you’ll cough.”

The strength of her hand is small and weak. If Rex really wants to break away, he only needs a little
effort. However, he seems to be really caught by her and does not continue to move.

In his ear, the soft voice of the woman comes, “If you mind, I will not take it off next time, okay?”



“I don’t mind this.” He finally speaks and looks at her with a trace of scrutiny that he has not seen in a
long time, “You’re afraid that your parents know our relationship.”

He does not question her but says it in a confident tone.

From urging him to leave quickly until hiding her ring, her motives are clearly obvious.

“I’m not.” Lily tightens the meal box on her hand tightly, “I’m just being cautious.”

The last failed marriage does not seem to have any effect on her. But in fact, some of her behavior has
changed. She is not in a hurry to introduce him to her parents as before. Instead, she is more cautious,
and this cautiousness does not affect her love.

“What are you afraid of? Where do I make you feel unreliable, or do you always think that you’ll leave
me one day?” Rex laughs at himself, “or do you think that your parents are not satisfied with me?”

His aggressive attitude makes Lily breathless; her head is lowered a little, “Not at all. I’m still not
mentally prepared. It’s my problem, not you.”

“Lily.” He rarely calls her name in such a serious tone unless there is something serious to discuss with
her.

Her heart tightens and meets his gaze in an alarmed.

The man’s sexy throat rolls up and down. There is also a depressing issue between his eyebrows,
“What the hell are you hesitating on?”

“I didn’t hesitate.” Lily tries to explain, not wanting him to misunderstand, “I just need some time to
adjust myself. Rex, I’ve been on a failed marriage before. Even if it is barely a status, it will still leave
me a deep influence. I know it is unfair to you, but I can’t control this negative emotion….”



She also wants to tell her family about his existence without hesitation, but it is also so difficult to speak
out.

That fear is not temporary nor is it because of something or someone. It is quietly lingering in her mind,
preventing her from doing so.

Speaking out this part, she has already shown her wounds to him. This kind of unspeakable feeling
makes her feel inferior.

“I don’t know how to explain it to you. I’m not afraid, I just need more time.” Give her some space to
face her own feelings.

She loves Rex more than Tim. The deeper the love, the harder it is to take this step.

The meal box in her hand also excludes its temperature. Lily could not help but hold it tighter as if she
will get a trace of warmth and comfort.

The man’s thin lip is pursed together and looks aside at her disappointed face. She is still holding the
dumplings for him and the couplets in the red paper bag. Actually, she is also working on it.

The unforgettable is covered under those trembling lashes.

It is not until this step, she can see clearly that she is also walking lonely on along the way.

Suddenly, he is occupied by guilt and grievance. Like a terrible tsunami followed by the earthquake, it is
clearly a peaceful night before him, but he feels uncomfortable as if something is strangling in his
throat.

“I’m sorry.” He has apologized a lot recently, letting her feels grievance too. The thin lip opens and
closes, a little difficult to expose his feeling, “I was too busy today and I keep on wanting to see you
soon. But after seeing that you urge me up and also taking off the ring, I lost control.”



“I know.” Lily does not blame him. The result will be the same if it is someone else. She just thinks that
she has a problem.

“I’m too anxious.” Rex reaches out and grabs the small hand that is resting on her thigh. His eyes are
like the sea under the moonlight, waving a little flashed lightly, “No matter how much time you need, I
will wait for you.”
