After Rex receives Lily’s new address, he almost immediately drives from the villa to Lily’s apartment.
Just in the rush hour, his car is blocked in the road, and his mood is a little agitated.
Just at this time, the mobile phone on the side rings. It is from a secretary in his company, “What’s the
matter?”
Rex’s tone is not gentle. The secretary is puzzled and says, “Mr. Rex, I’m sorry to disturb you. Miss
Vivian comes here just now and she says she wants to see you. Now it’s time to get off but she still
doesn’t leave. eh...”
“Tell her I’m not available.” Rex is very impatient. He is annoyed when he thinks of Vivian who keeps
pestering him, “If she comes back later, do not let her come in.”
The secretary feels relieved. “Yes, sir!”
In fact, they all don’t want Vivian to come, because everyone knows their boss’ attitude towards her.
Every time she comes, everyone feels embarrassed. But this time the boss says clearly, they don’t
have to be nervous for later.
Vivian couldn’t wait to ask, “What did he say?”
“Mr. Rex said that you would not come again.” The secretary has a very good attitude, and there is no
trace of domineering or despise on her.
However, Vivian herself could not face this, “I don’t believe it! He can’t say that. We’ve been meeting in
the company before!”
“Miss Vivian, I’m just a secretary. I don’t dare to cheat you. Please don’t embarrass us. If you don’t
believe me, you can call Mr. Rex in person.”
Vivian feels a burst of embarrassment. If she can contact Rex, does she still need to come to the
company to be rejected!
She is so angry yet has no way to outburst. Looking around, she could only vent her anger at the
employees, “How do you treat your guest as a secretary, in this way of speaking? Sooner or later, you
will be fired!”
The secretary feels rather confused, and has no idea that what is wrong with his attitude. Thus his tone
is hard. “It is my problem not to satisfy you. But whether I am fired or not doesn’t depend on you.”
Everyone who works hard doesn’t want others to say this kind of thing. Maybe it is just because that
Vivian has low EQ or she just looks down on others.
Vivian has no choice but to leave angrily.
In the elevator, she looks at the woman dressed in skirts in the mirror who looks so bright and beautiful.
She has a good shape and a pretty face. She must be wanted by many men. However, Rex is so
ungrateful and so indifferent to her.
He loves someone else? That woman who had died five years ago?
For five years, she doesn’t believe that this man has never had an affair with another woman!
With such a thought, Vivian feels more and more grieved and unfair. She feels that she has
experienced a lot of vicissitudes recently. Without the moisture of love, women are easily wasted.
When the elevator reaches the ground floor, she gets into the car. Thinking for a moment, she takes out
her mobile phone and calls a playboy, “Are you free in the evening? How about meeting in Red Club?”
…
When Rex arrives, it has been nearly seven o’clock in the evening. He sees several exquisite
apartments in front of him. It is a famous rich area. The price of a single square meter is even more
expensive than that of villas. Many local rich people and people with status would choose to buy
houses here.
He couldn’t get into the area, so he stops on the side of the road. He thinks that Lily and his child are in
one of the brightly lit apartment. Even if he is just looking at it, he still feels warm in his heart.
It’s so late. He has no ideas whether if they have eaten, or what they ate, or whether they were full.
The man takes a box of cigarettes from the drawer, pulls out one and lit it on his lips. The white smoke
diffuses. He opens the window and lets the night wind take away the smoke.
Once upon a time, they lived together. At that time, there was no one else but only the two of them. It
was the happiest time when Rex was on the way home from the company every day.
He once pushed open the door, saw her standing in the kitchen to cook for him, saw her come over
with a smile to take his briefcase, watched her tiptoe up to kiss him.
Five years later, every scene is very clear, but it’s a pity that this kind of picture has to be seen by
another man.
In fact, he knows that the relationship between Lily and Ryan is not like what she said. The more he
contacts her, the more he feels that something must be wrong.
He is very clear that what is she like if she loves a man. Her attitude to Ryan is not love.
Thinking of these, Rex flashes that Lily said that she did not love him and that she loved others. That
makes Rex so angry and hateful.
On the other side of the ocean, they are so far away. If he didn’t come to England this time, would he
and she never see each other in their lives?
Rex can’t help but smile when he thinks of this. In fact, what he wants is really not too much. He just
hopes that she is still alive and that they can see her one day. But when he really sees her, he can’t
control himself. He wants more and more, and all this greed is just about his infinite love towards her.
Rex doesn’t know how long he has been sitting in the car. He picks up a box of cigarettes and puts it
down after smoking half of them. He just smokes and looks at the apartment building, imagining what
Lily and his child are doing, and even the appearance of the child.
As long as he thinks of this, even if he is sitting alone in the car, he won’t feel too lonely.
Maybe it is God’s pity that God couldn’t bear how he tortures himself. Just as Rex is about to leave, two
figures, one tall and another short, appear at the gate of the apartment in the dark.
It’s already 8:30 p.m. The rich area is particularly quiet so the figures are obvious at a glance.
Rex only feels that his blood seemed to flow backward, and the small figure affects his whole senses.
He doesn’t get out of the car in a hurry, but waits for Lily and the child to walk on the road, and then he
opens the door and walks down.
Lily originally plans to take Adair to the nearby supermarket at night and buy something. Adair doesn’t
go out all day. He couldn’t stay at home all the time. When they are walking, they suddenly find that a
dark shadow goes towards them quickly.
She instinctively turns around and pulls Adair behind her, but she is stunned when she looks up to see
the face of the figure. “Rex, why are you here?”
Rex’s eyes become gloomier than the night behind him. The sharp sight turns around on him and then
moves away from her face. Slowly, slowly, it falls somewhere behind her.
Lily is too clear about what he is looking at. Immediately, she is cold all over, and her feet are almost
unsteady.
“Get out of the way.” His voice is as steady as the sound of the mountain.
Lily’s face is bloodless. Her five fingers holding Adair gradually tighten. She secretly plans to escape,
but sadly finds it impossible.
He has found here and blocked her and Adair here. How could he allow them to leave?
Behind Lily, Adair, with a pair of big eyes, wanders back and forth between his mother and the strange
uncle. He seems to realize that the atmosphere is not right. He asks in a timid whisper, “What’s the
matter with you, mom?”
Lily is flustered. When she hears the sound of Adair, she cannot help but fear, “Mom is fine.”
Adair’s half face is hidden behind Lily, “Who is this uncle?”
