Let's Get Married Chapter 299: Do You Like Me?

The conversation ends up in ill humor.

Lily is then sent back to the detention center under police escort. Looking around, Lily sighs again that
human beings are really awesome. No matter how bad the environment is, as long as one is
accustomed to it, she will become insensitive to it.

She herself is a good example. Sitting on the humid, tiny bed, she is not as unease or uncomfortable
as she was last time. As long as she is accustomed to it, then everything will be natural.

Lily is scared by such kind of feeling, worrying that her passion and thinking ability would be worn down
in such circumstance.

Barring accidents, the result of this court session will be severe that they have imagined. She can
sense it from Rex's anger and the atmosphere in the court. However, she still needs to wait since the
final verdict will be released about one month later.

What will the result be like?

Will it be a set term of imprisonment, or a life imprisonment? If it is a set term of imprisonment, how
much will she be sentenced to? Ten years? Twenty years? Thirty years? Or longer?

Lily dares not to take a deeper thought. She claps her knees with two hands to warm up herself, as if
only in this way can she ward off the unbearable coldness.

"No. 0485!" Right at this moment, there comes the shout of the prison guard, who is in charge of the
prison area where Lily is in, from the door.

No one in the prison will call her by name; they just call her by a series of lifeless numbers that are
easy for them to remember - No. 0485.



"Yes!" Lily gets up from the bed and walks over the door. There is a small sliding iron window on the
door. The guard pulls it open from outside and shouts at Lily.

"You got a phone call; do you want to answer it?" The guard has a bad attitude and asks without any
politeness.

Lily is confused. Who would call her at this critical moment? Is it a call from her parents?

Thinking of her parents, Lily fails maintain her composure, "Yes, I will come soon."

The guard glances at her and then opens the door for her. Although she is handcuffed, she doesn't
wear ankle bracelets. Obviously, Rex must have some relationships to give her this priority.

Lily walks into a room that is specially arranged for prisoners to pick out phone calls. It is transparent
with some desks in it. On each desk there is a landline phone that can only be called in. Lily picks up
the phone and asks in a cautious voice, "Hello?"

"Hello. It's me." Unexpectedly, there comes a charming male voice from the other end of the phone.

Lily stuns, "Who are you?"

"You forgot my voice so soon? Then next time I meet you, I must talk more with you." That person
jokes at her with great facility.

Only one person when talk with her in such a tone, that's Ryan.

Lily hand, which is holding the phone, tightens. Before she speaks, Ryan seems to have read his mind
and takes the initiative, "Take it easy. Why are you always afraid that I would do something to you?

"..."



Ryan, when hearing the sound of her ragged breathing, finally stops teasing her, "You went to the court
today. How does it feel?"

Lily's eyelashes quiver. She swallows salvia and replies with difficulty, "Not good."

"I guess you must have retracted your testimony in the court, right? You can't bear it."

Lily's heart misses one beat, her eyebrows wrinkle tightly, "How do you know that?"

Why?

Ryan chuckles, "Before I know you."

This woman has the charm to attract to people to know more about her. Every time when seeing this
little woman, he would want to explore more about her, about how much energies she has.

Lily sighs and closes her eyes, "Mr. Ryan, you do know me."

Her confirmation stuns Ryan. They have met for several times, but this is the first time that she...
confirms him.

"Oh, that's my honor."

"You call me not just to hear my compliment, right?"

Hearing her words, Ryan busts into laughter in a resonant voice, which is as melodious as the sound
made by a cello, "You are right, I have other intentions."

He pauses and then adds, "Do you remember your promise."

Of course Lily knows what he is referring to. But she doesn’t expect that he would get the news so
soon. He has received the news not long after she leaves the court.



However…

"I just said I would consider it, but didn't promise you."

Hearing her calm answer, Ryan feels it more interesting, "Then what’s your decision?"

Lily's thin lips tighten, and it takes a while to loosen them, "Judging from the current situation, it seems
unnecessary to wait for the verdict.”

"So?"

"I will probably get heavy sentence. I don't know how Rex will deal with it." Her voice sounds calm, but
in fact, what is hidden under this calmness is her helplessness and loss.

Being imprisoned, she has no way to know anything or do anything. She can just wait.

"Lily, you are stronger than all the women I have ever met." Ryan blurts out.

Lily is a bit stunned, "Why do you say that?"

"Because I like your strength." After finishing speaking, he sneers at himself, as if he also thinks that
this reason is ridiculous, “Do you want to wait until the verdict is declared?”

"I... haven't decided whether to leave."

"Listen." Ryan ignores her hesitation, lowers his voice and says word by word in an extremely solemn
voice, “You will have to go to the court when the verdict is declared. Of course you will then be sent
back. The driver who is charged of escorting you back is my man. You can say “I want to go to toilet” to
signal him, then my man will reply “Wait for a while”. Then he will help free you on the way back. If you
don’t want to run off, you can just tell him, and then he will send you back to the detention center safely.
I get two plans so you have rooms for consideration.”



Lily suddenly gets nervous. She doesn’t expect that he has had such a detailed plan. All of a sudden,
she recalls something and feels something gets wrong, “The phone can record.”

"It's okay, it has already been processed, so don't worry."

"But…"

"Think about it carefully. Although I have threatened you many times, this is your last chance to leave."
Ryan is more serious than ever. "Don't worry, as long as you are willing to leave with me, I will not
restrict you from coming back. I will give you a lot of supports. As for my purpose, it is very simple. You
saved my life, and I want to repay it. This is one of the reasons. Plus,…”

Lily listens keenly, "What?"

Ryan, however, shuts down the conversation, "Forget it, I will tell you in person in the future."

As he is about to hang up the phone, Lily hurriedly stops him, “Ryan!”

She would call him by name, instead of the polite and annoying “Mr. Ryan”, only when she is in
urgency.

Ryan pauses and puts back the handset to his ear, “Anything else?”

Lily puts another hand to the handset tightly; as if only in this way can she pile up some courage. The
emotions in her eyes are complicated. As time is limited, she doesn’t think over it and blurts out, “Do
you like me…”
