Let's Get Married Chapter 697: He Disappears in the Blink of an Eye

As soon as she says that, Lily's eyes grow moist. She slightly turns her face sideways, unable to bear
to look at the scene.

Rex is the closest person to Adonis. However, he is the most sober at this moment. His actions grieve
her more.

Staying beside the bed and unwilling to leave, Amelia is taken out by her husband and Florence. Rex
stares at the man on the bed. He mutters goodbye to himself in secret. The veins on his neck bulge
out. He uses all his strength to turn around and leave.

Walking out of the ward, he closes the door and pauses for a moment. Karl immediately steps forward
and says, "There is a surveillance screen connected to the room. Don't worry. Nothing will go wrong."

They have been friends for so many years. Karl knows Rex's thoughts, even if Rex doesn't say a word.

After hearing this, Rex no longer hesitates. He steps forward with anxiety and panic.

His entire body emits the message of not approaching him, as if he has built a high wall around himself.
Lily knows what he needs the most right now, so she does not follow him too closely. She keeps a
three-meter distance with him silently.

The corridor is so long, as if there is no end. Above their heads is a dazzling white light, decorating this
space so brightly in the silent middle of the night.

It seems that there is nowhere to hide any thoughts or sorrows.

Desiring to escape from the brightness here, the man who has been striding forward suddenly turns
around and enters the dark water room.



The VIP wards of Karl's Hospital have separate water fountains. The water room in the corridor is set
for family members and nurses. The room is small and is less than ten square meters. It is dark, with
only the light in the corridor shining into the room through the door.

Lily stops and sees Rex walking into the room. After about half a minute, she quietly walks to the side
of the door. With her back leaning against the wall, she hears Rex's suppressed sobs from inside.

He is like a wild beast wounded by a shotgun, hiding in his cave and enduring the pain alone.

She deeply breathes in and slowly breathes out. She doesn't know where Amelia is, but she know that
Amelia will be alright with Florence and her husband. However, Rex is alone. She is the only person
accompanying him, so she cannot leave.

Rex is so sad that she cannot blame him for not giving her the chance to shoulder the burden with him
together. He is just so in pain that he needs some time to recover. All she can do is to stay by his side
and spare him the time to recover.

After standing outside for a long time, the suppressed sobs inside finally stop. Lily straightens up and is
about to go in to find him. Only then does she find that her ankles are numb.

The slightest bit of force by her feet makes her feel like stepping on the tip of a knife. It is painful and
itchy.

She endures the pain and walks into the water room. She gropes to turn on the light. Although it is not
very bright, it is enough for her to see clearly the man, who is facing her with his back.

Leaning against the wall with one arm, he bends down slightly. His shoulders seem to be pressed down
with tons of stones, that it is merely too difficult for him to stand up straight.

"Rex, it's time to go home."



After the death of Adonis, the first sentence she says is to take him home. She doesn't know what else
she can do except taking him home.

She could have said "don't be sad” or “everything's gonna be alright”, but they are all courteous words.
For Rex, these are all nonsense.

However, Rex does not turn around. He ponders for a moment and says in a dry and hoarse voice, "Go
and find my grandma."

Grandma?

Lily frowns. She knows that there won't be any big problems there since the doctors and Karl is with
Clara. However, Rex is alone here...

"Go. I'll be at ease when you're there," he repeats, sounding worried.

Lily agrees, "Okay. I'll go. Wait for me here. We'll go back together later. OK?"

Rex nods.

Lily walks out of the water room. When she walks towards the ward, she feels worried and keeps
looking back. Somehow, she just feels uneasy. However, she still returns to the ward to reassure Rex.

Karl is surprised to see Lily return. "Why are you back by yourself?"

"Rex said that he was worried. He asked me to come over and take care of Grandma."

"We are all here. What was he worried about? Where is Rex?"

"In the pantry."

Karl feels that something is wrong, "By himself?"



"Yes, I told him to wait for me over there." Lily sees the anxiety on Karl's face and becomes uneasy.
"What's wrong? Do you think something will happen to him?"

"It's hard to say." Karl becomes serious. He can see Clara in the room simply through the door.
However, he can't help but feel worried when thinking of Rex being alone. "I'll watch over here. You
should go back and take care of him. Adonis' death has shaken him dreadfully. Don't worry. I am here
and nothing will happen."

Lily hesitates, "Maybe I can wait here until Clara comes out?"

"Clara's mood is relatively stable now. She will be in the ward for some time. Rex can't stay by himself.
Please go and accompany him first. He's the one who needs you the most right now." Karl emphasizes
this to Lily again and again, feeling more and more worried.

Lily nods. She walks back to the water room. The distance isn't very short. It will take her seven to eight
minutes to get there even if she walks quickly. Fourteen to fifteen minutes to go back and forth—not a
short distance.

On her way back, Lily uneasily comforts herself that Rex must still be in the water room waiting for her
since she is only away for a short time.

However, when she returns to the water room with a heavy breath, she only finds that no one is inside.
Rex, who was standing beside the wall just now, disappears.

Feeling like stepping into the air, Lily suddenly becomes extremely panicked.

How can he disappear in such a short time?

He promised her that he would wait here!



At this moment, Lily completely gets flustered. She can't think about anything else but to look for him.
She rushes out of the water room and heads for the elevator. Next to her is the screen, showing that
the elevator is slowly reaching the first floor from the third floor.

Can he be the one in the elevator right now?

Nobody will walk around this floor for VIP wards at this time, so probably it is him.

Lily immediately takes out her phone and calls him. At the same time, she presses the other elevator
and waits anxiously.

At first, she can get through the phone. But he won't answer. However, when she dials the second time,
she is reminded that the phone is turned off.

He actually leaves without saying a word and turns off his phone at such a time? She is so
worried.
