Let's Get Married Chapter 491: The Longest Distance

Actually, Lily is not Ryan's type. But he has grown attached to her. Trying constantly to get close to her,
he sometimes has the illusion of having her already.

"Ryan, I don’t deserve you." Her throat feels tight as Lily is panicky.

"Don't worry." He bends his fingertips and lightly taps on the steering wheel, interrupting her, "I used to
want more from you, but not anymore. I guess you and Rex will never let each other go? I get it now, so
I won't bother you anymore. Don't feel sorry or shy around me. It's safe to say that I have other
options."

He sounds cool, but he feels down. However, on the bright side, since Rex won't be around for at least
six months, he gets to be one protecting her from getting hurt.

"Ryan, thank you."

Ryan just lifts his chin and replies, "Go."

The car door opens and then closes, and his passenger disappears from sight. Looking at the empty
leather seat, he lights up the cigarette that he has thrown away again. The sound of it burning
resembles that of his scorched heart as it sizzles and turns to ashes.

...

What happened to Lily is soon made known to Rex. He has just finished his hemodialysis, and the red
dots all over him, which are the symptoms of the treatment, are still visible,.

He is grieved at what has happened to Lily, only feeling relieved when he learns that Ryan’s men came
to her rescue.

Strong feelings overwhelm him. Sarcastically, he is no longer a part of her life, but a bystander.



The ward falls silent. A subordinate comes to report, but notices his morose expression. With butterflies
in his stomach, the gofer knocks off a medicine bottle on the table with a crash.

He hastily picks it up and bends down, apologizing, "Sorry, Mr. Rex."

Sweat oozes from the poor man's forehead, but Rex casually waves his hand and says, "You can go."

"Yes."

The door is closed, while Rex embraces his thoughts and silence again. Lee pushes the door open and
sees this scene. He places the anti-inflammatory medicine in his hand aside and asks while adjusting
the instrument, "Are you uncomfortable?"

Rex's neck and hands are covered with red spots, which is frightening at first glance. Nevertheless, it is
nothing compared with his previous addiction attacks.

"Lee, I want to go out this afternoon." His answer is irrelevant.

Lee is a little surprised by it. "Going out? Is there anything urgent?"

Rex ponders for a moment before replying, somewhat blue, "I want to see her and the child."

"Aren't you scared that your wife will find out about...?"

"She won't." Rex presses down on the back of his hand, which has been bruised because of the
transfusion, so as to relieve the vasospasm. "She was bullied yesterday. I'm worried."

Lee feels like Rex should know he is in bad health condition to leave the sterile room. Unfortunately,
when he lands his gaze on Rex, he realizes that Rex is too weak to withstand the sadness.

He has to have hope to keep up the fight, and his family is his hope.



With that in mind, Lee agrees, "Alright, you have four hours. Coming back any later will render you in a
worse shape."

Four hours are all he need.

Rex's long eyelashes quiver slightly as he says, "Thank you."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Rex changes into a clean set of clothes. It is not a suit, but black
sportswear, because stiff fabric will make him uncomfortable. His car is driven to the underground
garage of the treatment center, and he goes down by the elevator and gets into the car.

Forty minutes later, the car stops at the entrance of a private primary school. Many luxury cars are
waiting here, and parents come out from time to time to have a better view of the school.

It is Adair's school.

Rex searches through the bustling crowd, and spots a familiar figure quickly. The woman is wearing a
thin white knitted top and a pair of pink trousers, which brings out her delicate and slender figure, with
the light colors adding to her charm.

Rex stares at her unblinkingly. It has been a while since he last saw her. Even watching in the car, he
seems to be able to smell the faint fragrance in her hair.

Everyone around her falls victim to her beauty, unable to shift their gaze from her.

She walks toward the car holding Adair's hand, bending down and saying something to him from time
to time, as if they are sharing the news of the day, or talking about dinner. The air is warmer around
them.

She excels as a wife and a mother. Adair seems happy and healthy under her care, which gives Rex a
strange feeling.



It is gratitude, or more like deep love.

Rumor has it that every woman in City J sees him as their prince charming, but he only deems Lily as
his Cinderella.

Lily gets into the car with her child. Her car starts and Rex follows closely behind. He keeps a proper
distance from her, fearing of being caught by her.

Her car stops at a flower shop first. The place has a signboard now, which brings it closer to a decent
shop, lacking only the merchandise—flowers.

This is Adair's first time here. Amazed, he blithely dances around the shop like a cute little elf.

Rex's car is parked on the opposite side of the street. He watches as Lily takes out a champagne rose
as well as two bundles of baby's breath, and weaves them into a wreath.

Adair wears it on his head as if he has obtained a treasure, grinning from ear to ear.

Rex can't refrain from turning on his phone's camera and zooming in to aim at that cute little figure,
taking a picture.

There comes a clicking sound. The driver looks at the rearview mirror and sees that the usually mopey
man is smiling at the screen.

That expression of Rex is so rare that he looks away sorrowfully despite himself.

There is only the sound of breathing in the car. Across the street in the shop, his beloved ones are
having a good time, which is gratifying enough for Rex to watch. How difficult life is!

Nearly time for supper, Lily drives speedily to the Imperial Villa. It has been nearly three hours since
Rex came out.



"Mr. Rex, should we go back?"

"No. Let's go to the villa first."

The driver nods and starts the car to follow.

The flower shop is not far from the villa with just twenty minutes of driving. Lily usually enters through
the side door, because she can encounter fewer people that way.

"Welcome back, Miss Lily," the security guard greets them politely at the gate.

Lily smiles and nods at him.

The car has Bluetooth identification. Behind the gate is a curve. As she glances at the rearview mirror,
she notices a black car. It is not far behind, but it doesn't go further but turns around.

Driven by curiosity, Lily slows down to check the license plate. But it is too far to be seen clearly.

The car suddenly picks up the speed when she slows down. This wakens something inside her. She
shifts gears, in an attempt to follow the black car, but Adair's lovely voice comes from beside her,
"Mom, what's wrong?"
