Chapter 410：Jealousy Eruption

Before Lily can reject, Rex is already calling his assistant and asking him to order food from the best
porridge restaurant from the north of the city. He says to Lily, “I bought two kinds of porridge from this
restaurant before, and Adair liked them both.”

Hearing he mention Adair, Lily gets softer and says, “His stomach is not too well. You should be careful
with his diet.”

“I know.” Since the last time that Adair suffered from indigestion, he becomes more careful with his diet
and asks Fanny to make some targeted food for him.

Abby watches them talking. The scene is kind of harmonious. She blinks her eyes and thinks it’s time
that she should leave now, “I have some work to do...Is it okay that I leave now?”

Rex has been waiting for this and says, “We are fine. You can go now.”

“...” Does he have to be so straight?

Abby’s mouth twitches twice. Then she gives Lily’s phone back to her and thinks of what Ryan said,
“Oh! I almost forgot. Mr. Ryan called you this morning. I told him that your phone was left in my place.
And he asked me to have you contact him.”

“It’s fine. I can call him now.”

Abby nods her head and grabs her bag from beside, “Then I had better get going now. Call me if
anything happens. I am always free.”

Lily looks out of the window. It’s getting dark. They arrived at the hospital in an ambulance, so Abby
didn’t drive her car here. Of course, she can’t drive her back now. But Abby has been taking care of her
for a whole day, she can’t just let her go back alone.



She looked at the man sitting beside with a bit embarrassment, “Can you...”

“What is it?”

Lily gets more embarrassed, “Can you... Can you have someone drive Abby back?”

Actually, this is nothing to Rex, but still, he is a bit shocked, because this is the first time that Lily asks
for his help face to face since her return.

Rex truly feels happy now. It’s so good that she directly asks him for help when confronting obstacles
and problems instead of seeking his help through other people.

If only she had done it before, she would know he was always there for her. He is not someone without
principles, but in front of Lily, his principles are less important.

Since the very beginning, he has no resistance to her.

Seeing him not answering, Abby thinks he doesn’t want to. But it doesn’t matter, she says frankly, “No,
it’s fine. My home is not far from here. I can just take a taxi.”

“I will have my driver take you home.” Rex answers and meanwhile makes a call.

So, Abby left. Though the emergency ward is not small and there are many people, Lily feels like they
are the only two persons here, which makes her feel constrained.

Unconsciously, she turns on her phone and checks the calling record. It indicates that Ryan called at
10 a.m. By then she just got in the hospital.

It is almost 5 p.m. now. He must have waited for a long time.

Thinking about this, Lily dials Ryan’s number. The phone call is picked up after only two rings. Ryan
answers in a hasty voice, “Hello?”



“It’s me.” Lily tries to make her sound normal, “I just got my phone. You called me this morning?”

“Yes.”

He answers and then asks, “Where are you now?”

Lily gets nervous due to his question. Of course, she can’t tell him the truth, because she knows he will
definitely come straight here. So, she lies, “In Abby’s place. I just got here.”

With that, she peeks at Rex unconsciously and looks right into the deep eyes.

With her heartbeat racing, she dares not to keep looking at him and turns away immediately, “By the
way, I will stay at her place tonight. Tomorrow we will go out together.”

Ryan doesn’t say anything, but he observes that she is lying. They have spent five years together, if he
couldn’t even detect when she is lying, he would be a fool.

But he says nothing more and replies in a deep voice, “Okay, take good care of yourself.”

“You too.”

Ryan hopes that she had told him directly the truth instead of lying to him. But what can he do? She
chose to lie to him, and he is in no position to interfere with her business. Therefore, he can only
support her in silence.

“Don’t worry about Adair. I am handling it.”

“OK.” Lily answers and then thinks of what Ryan said before about targeting Rex’s company. She
pauses and continues, “His stance is getting softer now. Please don’t do anything radical yet.”

After saying this, she clearly feels the man beside freeze for several seconds.



She doesn’t want to say this either, but what he did gives her no choice.

Hearing what she said, Ryan feels complicated too, as if all emotions were twirling in his heart. But
finally, he only says, “OK. I will listen to you.”

As long as she is happy, anything he does and the time he spends will count for something.

Hanging up the phone, Ryan calls her loudly, “Lily.”

Lily’s hand freezes and she asks, “What?”

“Remember, I will always be on your side no matter what happens.” He utters every word clearly and
heavily, making Lily feel dependable.

Lily is so touched inherently. Meanwhile, she feels guilty for lying to him and says in a low voice, “Ryan,
be good to yourself.”

He should think more about himself instead of her.

But Ryan just smiles a bit and keeps silent for two seconds. Then he says, “I am fine as long as you
are fine.”

Lily wants to give him more comfort, but the eyes beside are too glowing. Every time she opens her
mouth, she gets anxious. So, at the end, she hangs up the phone in a haste.

Lily puts the phone on her bed and looks up to see the black eyes full of repressed anger. Rex looks
right into her eyes, making her feel more anxious.

They are both silent for a while.

Lily looks down at the white sheet to avoid his glowing eyes.



Rex admits that he is a bit angry at this moment. No man will be happy after hearing his woman say
those things. Ryan’s intention is too obvious to go unnoticed. Everyone knows and she must know too.
Let alone this, she knew that man was targeting his company from the beginning.

He wants to lose his temper, but when her pale face and panicked eyes come into his sight, he can’t
say anything and can only hold all his anger inside.

In front of this woman, what else can he do?

When Lily is hesitating to say something to ease the tense, the man beside suddenly stands up and
walks out of the emergency ward.

Watching his back, Lily is a bit shocked. He just... left like that?

Rex’s figure quickly disappears in her sight. There is nothing in her sight and there is nothing beside
her too. Lily looks around and feels emptiness overflowing her heart.

When he was around, she hoped desperately that he would leave. But when he is really gone, she
doesn’t feel happy like she thought she would.
