Let's Get Married Chapter 519: I Can't Let You Take the Risk

The news that Rex will be back quickly spreads throughout the entire legal profession. Opinions are
widely divided. Some say that he is a gallant loser, while others say that he had become unfamiliar with
the legal profession and would never be able to return to his previous state.

In short, Rex's return has a great impact on the legal profession and among the famous lawyers. They
are afraid of Rex and can't wait to see what happens. Many reporters send interview invitations and
would settle even if Rex wouldn’t want to show his face, but Rex has turned them all down.

At first, Lily is quite afraid that these would affect him. Now she would become subconsciously worried
about Rex. Thus, after talking with the franchisee, Lily returns home early and buys a lot of food,
preparing to cook a meal for him.

"Miss Lily, are you going to cook by yourself today?" Fanny is taking care of Adair in the living room
when she sees Lily washing the tomatoes.

"Yes, you don't need to help me now. I'll call you if I need anything."

In less than two hours, four delicious dishes are placed on the dining table. The tomato stewed beef is
appetizing. The sweet and sour soup with the stewed soft roasted beef gives off a pleasant smell.
Steamed grouper is decorated with two lemon slices. Rex likes this light taste very much. The last one
is cumin lamb, which Adair likes. Finally, she mixes the cold boiled broccoli flower with sweet and sour
soy sauce.

As soon as the food is served, Rex walks into the villa as if he has known it.

He is holding a briefcase in his hand. Seeing Lily busy in the kitchen, before he asks, Adair has already
come. He squats down and hugs his son upstairs.



Lily sees that they go upstairs. This is the first time that she feels she is ignored. She finally
understands why Rex has always been jealous of his son. Her feeling now is a bit ... mixed.

In less than ten minutes, they change their clothes before coming down again. Rex walks straight to the
kitchen and looks at the woman who is still working in front of the stove with an apron on. He walks
over and naturally hugs her on the waist. He kisses her forehead and says, "Why do you cook today?"

He remembers that she has been very busy lately. Sometimes, she comes back home until eight in the
evening. He has just been back to the firm, so he also has many things to deal with. He needs to attend
some dinner parties, and they rarely have chances to have dinner together. It is no more than three
times a week.

"I come back early today. I got some food and I've finished cooking."

They walk to the dining room and sit down. Adair is quietly waiting for them.

Lily is still good at cooking. Although it is just an ordinary meal, Rex likes it much. He always eats little
for dinner, but has eaten two bowls of rice today.

After dinner, Adair goes upstairs to do his homework, and Rex goes to the third floor to continue to
work on his business. Lily sits alone in the living room. After a busy day, she suddenly has nothing to
do. She doesn't care about what is on TV. Seeing that it is nine o'clock, Lily goes upstairs to tell Adair a
story and tucks him in.

After finishing it, she goes to the bathroom to take a bath. The smell of oil and smoke dissipates in the
faint scent of lavender. It is almost ten o'clock when she comes out of the bathroom, but Rex is still on
his work.

Why does it take so long?



Lily frowns. She leans on the bed and looks at the clock on the wall from time to time. Finally, she
brings a cup of hot milk to the third floor.

She knocks on the door, and then she walks in. The man is sitting behind his desk looking at the
computer screen with a serious expression. He doesn't even notices that Lily is coming.

Lily puts the milk on the desk and looks at Rex. Rex is actually reading a lawsuit file. She looks at the
pages in the lower left corner and finds that there are more than a hundred pages.

"Is this the case you take over?" Then, she sighed emotionally, "What kind of case? The files are so
long."

"I haven't taken it over yet. I am considering." Rex's thoughts are interrupted by her. The high-intensity
mental work makes him really tired. He leans back, holds and kisses her hand lightly.

"What are you worried about? Are you unsure about it?"

"This is the first case I take after I come back to be a lawyer. It's very important, but the case is
complicated."

"What is the case about?"

Rex meets her gaze and he is hesitant to tell her the truth. He ponders for a moment before pulling her
into his embrace and letting her sit on his lap. He hugs her from behind. He clicks on the wireless
mouse by his right hand, showing her the details of the file, "It's a case about cross-border smuggling."

"Cross-border smuggling?" Lily has also been a lawyer for many years, and she rarely knows much
about such cases. Then she asks, "What are they smuggling?"

Unexpectedly, Rex's answer frightens her, "Guns."



She withdraws her gaze from the computer and turns to look at the man behind her, "Are you serious?"

Rex looks at Lily calmly, "I never joke about this."

"OK, you can't take it over." Lily blurts out without hesitation, looking at Rex seriously, "This kind of
case is not easy to handle, and the government will follow up. If you take it over, you will get revenge."

Back in London, without the legalization of guns, the law firm received a case against a white man.
Later on, the case was finished successfully. After all, it was just a gun, and he didn't cause much
damage. However, even so, the lawyer in charge of the case was also retaliated. His car was smashed
into pieces by someone, and he was warned. Fortunately, nothing else happened afterwards. But this
reminded Lily that one shouldn’t over-reach himself in this kind of attempt.

Hence, after hearing this case, Lily's first reaction is that Rex can't take it.

A cross-border gun smuggling case involves many things. He would be an indispensable part out of
many and most likely be targeted.

Her answer is both within and beyond Rex's expectations. He knows that she might not agree, but he
does not expect that she would refuse so straightforwardly.

When he gets this case, he has also considered a lot. He has been told higher-ups that it would be
difficult.

"If I don't take it over, no one can do that." If he doesn't know he is most suitable one, he won't consider
so much about it.

Lily's expression is a little complicated. Caring too much may bring trouble, but she still tries her best to
calm herself down, "Rex, if you don’t do it, someone else will. You can't think like that!"



"This case is different from the others." Rex tries his best to explain that the case is special, but Lily
insists that he needs to refuse it.

She thinks the case itself is dangerous, and she absolutely could not let him risk it.

"I can't allow you to take this case. I know what you are thinking about, but I can't let the person I love
the most to take the risk."

"I may not get revenge, and it has always been well-controlled..."

Before Rex has finished speaking, Lily stands up and says firmly, "No way."
