Let's Get Married Chapter 482: The Truth They’re Hiding

Lee specifically pulls up the results sheet Rex sent over, marking it with his mouse. “The indicators are
hugely different from the Karl’s Hospital’s. Rex, I don’t know what they’ve told you, but in my opinion,
your body is not just in rejection during recovery. There are residual inhibitors in your system. They are
specifically targeted at addictive withdrawal and are not available on the market.” Then Lee shifts his
gaze to the man’s face. “Are you having strong symptoms?”

Rex’s heart has sunk to the bottom. He gently closes his eyes and thinks of his recently uncontrollable
body, finally understanding what is going on and saying in a hoarse voice, “I am.”

Although Lee can’t bear to see Rex like this, he still has to tell him everything about his illness, “This
medicine is used as an adjuvant during withdrawal from addiction. It can make sure that you won’t be in
fatal danger, but its high concentration also suggests that you have a big addiction problem.”

Rex’s eyes are pitch-dark. “What about my chance of withdrawal? Is it big?”

Lee adjusts his glasses and says, “Fifty percent.”

Today, Rex finally knows the truth that Lily and Karl are hiding.

Fifty percent.

His lips curl into a bitter smile. This means that he can recover, but he is also very likely to be
tormented by addiction.

He remembers clearly the feeling of losing control when the addiction hits him. It is not as simple as
what Karl has said, and Lily knows about it.

“If I reach the late stage, what symptoms will I have?” The man’s voice is like it has been polished by
gravel, so hoarse that it sounds uncomfortable.



“All sorts of symptoms, and the clinical reactions you are experiencing will continue to worsen, probably
affecting your mind.”

Affecting the mind.

Rex closes his eyes. “Will I hurt her?”

“When your mind is seriously affected....” Lee pauses for a moment before continuing, “Yes.”

Such a result is undoubtedly cruel. Although Rex has noticed that Karl and Lily were behaving
strangely, this is simply beyond his imagination.

It has come to this. If his condition worsens, not only himself, but Lily and the child will be hurt. Rex
never wants that to happen.

He won’t allow anyone to hurt his wife and child, not even himself.

For a long time, they both remain silent. Even Lee, as an outsider, can feel Rex’s sorrow.

He and Rex have known each other for eight years. At an academic conference, Rex financed him,
which leads to where he is today. He was questioned, but now he is just grateful to Rex.

As far as Lee can remember, Rex was never dispirited before, but at this moment, he can see the
weight on Rex’s shoulders and the confusion he is feeling.

A tough figure like Rex can also be powerless facing sickness.

Lee doesn’t feel good, but he has to ask, “Rex, what do you plan to do?”

What to do?



Rex lets out a deep breath. He has no choice now, right? He doesn’t know how to face Lily and the
child before he truly recovers.

Not to mention his pride. He is afraid that he will hurt them when he loses control.

However, leaving is also excruciating for Rex. Only by clutching his hands can he suppress the surging
emotions.

After a moment of silence, the man finally opens his mouth, his voice trembling, “Prepare a separate
ward for me.”

That means he has already made a decision. Lee is glad that this man does not give up, nodding
solemnly and saying, “Alright, leave everything to me. Don’t worry.”

…

Rex has left for several hours. Lily has been waiting from morning until noon. A simple text message
saying that he won’t come back for lunch is enough to comfort her.

Lily figures that he is busy and does not disturb him.

However, time flies, and it is dusk. Lily picks Adair up from school, but Rex still hasn’t returned. She
loses her patience and calls Orson, knowing that it is not nice to do so.

The phone rang a few times before it is answered. “Hello, Orson?” Lily leans closer and said.

“It’s me. What’s wrong?” Orson and Lily rarely talk in private, but through Rex, so he is surprised to
receive her call.

“Orson, are you guys still busy? He hasn’t replied to my texts.” Lily is uneasy, afraid that the man might
get sick again.



However, Orson’s next sentence makes her worry real.

“Rex? Did he say he would come? I’m at the company, and I haven’t seen him.”

Lily’s heart skips a beat. It is like a stone weighing a thousand kilograms smashes onto her heart. Her
fingertips turn cold in just a few seconds, and she feels like she is being choked by a hand. “You said
that … Rex didn’t look for you?”

Hearing that she is surprised, Orson is confused, “No, he never showed up in the company. When did
he go out?”

“This morning.” Lily’s hand with the phone is shaking. Every worry she has today is turning into reality.

Hearing that, Orson also frowns. He glances at the clock on the wall. It is almost six o’clock. If Rex
leaves in the morning, he should be here.

Has something happened to him?

That idea startles Lily. She wants to quickly hang up and call Rex, but beeps came from the gate.

Lily looks at the gate, her eyes bright. The gap widens, and finally, there comes Rex.

It’s him.

Lily calms down from the tension. Her eyes are both red.

“Lily? Are you alright?” Orson’s voice sounds in her ears.

Lily closes her eyes and heaves a sigh of relief. “I am fine. He just returned.”

“That’s good. Contact me if you need anything.”



“Alright.”

After hanging up, Lily glances at the man standing at the door.

Realizing that something is wrong, Fanny takes Adair, who is watching TV on the sofa, to the second
floor, leaving the two adults alone.

Lily does not have the patience to wait for him to walk over. She rushes to him and asks him
straightforwardly, “Where have you been today?”

The man remains silent. His profile looks cold as he purses his sexy thin lips. His deep gaze falls on
her face, focused as if she had words on her face.

This silence fans the flames in Lily. “Rex, I’m asking you a question.”

Sensing her anger, Rex still doesn’t say anything. Instead, he hands her a file, “Take a look at
this.”
