Let's Get Married Chapter 477: Grim Situation

Lily shakes her head. “I’m fine. How do you feel?”

Rex tightly purses his thin lips. The sweat on his forehead flows down his face. He takes a deep look at
his hands and says, “I’m okay. Sorry. You must be scared.”

Lily doesn’t say anything. She’s scared, indeed. However, it isn’t because he hurt her, but because
something unexpected might happen to him in such a situation.

Spasms, intermittent convulsions, weakness, and shortness of breath ... Such symptoms are much
severer than she has imagined.

She’s even more uncertain about what Rex might suffer later. It’s the first stage of addiction after
withdrawal, but he suffered such great pain. What if later ...

After the indescribable feeling fades away, Rex tries to stand up. His limbs are still weak, but he barely
supports himself to stand up.

Lily wants to help him, but he dodges. “It’s nothing.”

From his cold voice, Lily knows he must be enduring great pain. Rex tries to support his body and
doesn’t want Lily to see him in such a weak state.

However, it’s impossible for Lily to do what he wants at this moment. Regardless of his refusal, she
stretches her arms and hugs him. In this way, Rex could find a point to support his body.

The man in her arms tenses up. Then his suppressed voice comes from above her head. “Lily, I’m
fine.”

‘I’m fine. I don’t need my woman to be so worried.’



“I knew. I knew,” says Lily, but she doesn’t let go of him and keeps stroking his back. “We knew this
would happen, didn’t we? I’m not scared at all. I’m just worried about you. Let me take care of you,
okay?”

Her voice is very soft. Her movements are exceptionally gentle. She patiently and considerately cares
about this man.

Rex feels his uneasiness rising and falling. Such terrible feelings are hidden in his body but he finds no
way to vent them. He clenches his hands for a long time before squeezing out a sentence. “You go out
first and I’ll take a shower.”

He still wants to take a shower. Seeing it, Lily frowns and says, “Don’t do it. Why not take a shower
tomorrow?”

“Just a shower. It doesn’t take much time.”

“But ...”

“I’m not that useless.” He curls his lips, but the curve of his lips doesn’t reveal any easiness.

Lily is worried that she would hurt his self-esteem, so she doesn’t insist. “Alright then. Hurry up. Call me
if you need anything.”

“Okay.”

Lily walks out of the bathroom. After half a minute, she hears water. Then she takes the phone at the
bedside and goes to the farthest corner from the bathroom to dial Karl’s number.

Not long after, the phone is picked up. “Hello, Lily?”



“Karl.” As soon as Lily says a word, she almost cries. Only she and Karl know about Rex’s situation, so
Karl is the only person that she could discuss with. “Rex had withdrawal symptoms just now, but it was
very severe. He looked particularly painful. What should I do?”

At the other side, Karl swiftly turns the steering wheel. The car is hurriedly parked at the side of the
road. “Don’t panic. Tell me what symptoms he had.”

“He sweat a lot and trembled non-stop. He unconsciously drooled. He seemed to be very cold, but at
times very hot. I don’t know. He breathed very fast, but he looked suffocated.” Lily doesn’t know what
she is saying now. She feels a lingering fear when recalling what has just happened.

Karl carefully remembers every word she is saying. When listening, his expression becomes more
serious. Rex’s first withdrawal symptom is more serious than he has imagined. This is not good news.

Thinking of the pain that Rex endured, Karl couldn’t help but curse in his heart. Vivian must have used
a high dose!

“Don’t worry. Don’t make Rex realize anything. Temporarily observe the time and frequency of his
addiction. Once it happens, inform me. Also, you should mix the supplementary drugs I gave you into
his medicine. Do you remember how to take them?”

“Yes.” Lily hurriedly nods and is extremely worried. “Would the addiction threaten his life?”

“Logically speaking, no.” Karl studied this subject before. If it really threatens Rex’s life, he wouldn’t
have let Rex leave the hospital. Now that Rex’s withdrawal symptoms are so serious, he is also
worried. “But just in case, you should take him to me to check his body per week. I want to know his
condition.”

“Alright.” Lily wants to say something, but she suddenly notices that no sound comes from the
bathroom. She feels anxious, hurriedly hangs up the phone and says, “Karl, I’ll call you back.”



“Alright, take good care of Rex, and yourself.”

“Alright.” Lily hangs up, deletes the call record, and puts the phone back where it was. She takes
several steps forward and walks to the door of the bathroom. Looking at the tall figure reflected on the
frosted door, she asks anxiously, “Rex, have you finished?”

There is no answer inside. Everything is in dead silence.

Lily’s in a panic. She bends her fingers and lightly knocks on the door, as if she is knocking on her
restless heart. “Rex?”

This time, the door opens. Rex, who is wrapped in a thin towel, shows up at the door. A steaming fog is
rising behind him.

Lily doesn’t expect that he would suddenly walk out. She’s stunned for a moment, and then heaves a
sigh of relief. “Why didn’t you answer me? You scared me to death.”

Rex looks at Lily’s pale face. She’s obviously anxious about his condition. She never admits it, but he
could sense her anxiety and worries about his health. However, she tries her best to endure all these
feelings, wanting to take care of his body while not hurting his self-esteem.

However, she doesn’t know that the more she endures, the more uncomfortable he is.

Rex raises his arms, caresses her side face, and slowly slides his fingers along her pretty face to her
lips. He touches her lips lightly, but even so, she shrinks in pain.

Rex’s eyes are deep and his thin lips gently open. “Have you looked in the mirror?”

He suddenly speaks in such a cold voice. Lily is puzzled and asks, “What?”



They look into each other’s eyes. All of Lily’s emotions are written in her eyes. When Rex looks into her
eyes, she feels she is stripped of her clothes and is examined by this man. All her thoughts are known
by him.

Rex pauses for a moment and bends down slightly. His gaze falls on the corner of her scabbed lips. His
Adam’s apple rolls, as if he wants to say something, but he keeps silent. He only lightly kisses her,
strokes her, and licks the wound which was made by him.

Lily’s eyelashes tremble slightly. She could feel his tenderness. It’s completely different from when he
was dominated by addiction. Although he doesn’t say anything, Lily could feel his regret and heartache.

Lily opens her mouth and responds. They don’t kiss intensely, but feel each other gently. After a while,
she stands on tiptoe and stretches her arms to wrap around Rex’s neck.

The man quickly wraps his arms around her waist and strokes her back with his big palm. “Don’t be
afraid. It will be fine.”

Lily nods in his arms and encourages herself that everything would be fine.

The next morning, Lily starts to add the medicines that Karl gave her to help Rex withdraw the
addiction. No matter how strong Rex’s willpower is, he’s a human. The addiction is a physiological
reaction. He must endure great pain when fighting the addiction.

In order to reduce his pain, Lily asks Fanny not to consider her taste and to make the food as
nourishing as possible.

Rex knows everything she has done for him. Her care that permeates his life makes Rex love her
more.

Despite everything that Lily has prepared, the withdrawal pain doesn’t let Rex off.



As Karl said, after that night, the withdrawal symptoms come more frequently and seriously.
Fortunately, Lily accompanies him every time.

However, things are still going in an unexpected direction. One day, Fraser calls Lily from the company
with an unprecedented anxiety in his voice, which makes her heart sink to the bottom.
