Chapter 479: A Lustful Kiss

Lily’s heart skips a beat when she is asked. When she looks at Rex, her heart beats out of order, “Karl
said before …”

As she speaks, she gazes away, afraid that Rex would see the panic in her eyes.

Rex raises his hand to pinch Lily’s cute chin. Being grabbed slightly, she can’t dodge anywhere. She
has no choice but to look into his sharp black eyes. Lily tires her best to keep calm. However, he makes
her too stressful now. She nearly wants to dodge his gaze.

Half a minute later, Lily feels uneasy under his gaze. She softly raises her hand to hold his palm. “Rex,
what’s wrong?”

“Lily,” he suddenly calls her name. The pressure in his eyes makes the air around him thinner. “Are you
hiding something from me?”

“No!” Lily denies without thinking. After that, she realizes that her attitude is too exaggerated, which
might make Rex even more suspicious. She hurriedly calms her down. “What can I hide from you by
staying at home with you every day?”

“What exactly is going on with my illness?” Rex keeps finding the underlying cause of it. The accidence
in the conference room today makes him realize that things aren’t as simple as Lily and Karl said.

His body was out of the control of medicines. He was in an awkward state in front of the public and her.
Occasionally, he even hurt her. Although it isn’t serious, it’s still a torment for Rex.

“It’s exactly what Karl said. Recovery requires a process. Later, your body might not bear the effects.
Right now, you are in this stage, but it’s all normal. I understand that you’re in pain, but it really isn’t
because of anything else,” Lily explains. She will never tell him that he is addicted. She knows that
once Rex knows it, he must make an unexpected decision himself.



Rex looks at Lily’s pale face and sneers, “My body was out of control. Is it normal?”

Lily knows that he must have doubts to it. She wants to divert his attention, so she reaches out and
grabs his big palm. She tilts forward slightly and raises her head towards Rex’s charming thin lips.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she approaches, Rex moves back his head to dodge her kiss.

Lily’s eyelashes tremble. She sees Rex’s dodge and thinks about how she has been afraid of being
seen through by this man these past few days. She feels wronged. Tears quickly gather in her eyes.
She lowers her head to retreat, but Rex holds her back.

Rex lowers his eyes and sees Lily’s red eyes. He instantly calms down and asks, “Why are you
crying?”

“I’m not crying.”

He frowns and exposes her poor lie. “Look at your red eyes. Aren’t you crying?”

“… You don’t believe me.”

“I believe you.” He lowers his head and let her look into his eyes. “It’s just that my condition is too
abnormal. I’m a little worried.”

“I asked Karl. He said all the symptoms are normal. I won’t joke about your health.” She raises her
sparkling eyes to look at him. Her dark pupils are so pure that it’s like they are washed with water.

Lily cares much about his health. Although she never said, Rex knew it. He never doubts Lily. He is
only doubtful of his own condition.

The vibe is somewhat gloomy. Right at this moment, the phone in Lily’s pocket rings.



The buzzing sound breaks the stagnation. Lily heaves a sigh of relief and is about to pick it up.
However, when she takes it out of the pocket and sees the name on the screen, she is surprised. It is
Karl.

Lily is stunned for a moment. Before she can react, the phone in her hand has been pulled out.

“Ah!” She shouts in a low voice. Her phone has fallen into Rex’s broad palm.

Before Lily could react, Rex answers the phone. Karl’s anxious voice comes from the phone, “How is
Rex?”

“Not good,” Rex slowly says. He just felt relieved, but now he feels strange again. “What exactly are
you and Lily doing?”

On the other side, Karl doesn’t expect that it would be Rex. He is so shocked that he slightly sits up
from the sofa. However, he is smart, so he doesn’t panic due to it. “What can we do? You’re in such a
state. I’m worried about you.”

“Isn’t it a normal symptom?” As Rex asks, he puts him on speaker. He opens the address book with his
fair fingertips. After calling out the latest calls, he checks the calling records with Karl. It’s quite
surprising that Karl and Lily has dialed to each other so frequently.

Lily looks at his movements and feels nervous. She reaches out to grab her phone but he grabs her
wrist. Again, Rex looks at Lily with sharp eyes, but he says to Karl, “She calls you several times a day.
Karl, when did you have such a good relationship with her?”

He knew that Karl has a good relationship with Lily, but they won’t call each other over five times a day.
Even for Rex himself, Lily has never dialed his number so many times a day.

Karl frowns and deliberately retorts, “Rex, what do you mean?”



“Nothing. Just curious,” Rex says with a light voice, but his words are sharp. His sentence makes the
others extremely nervous.

Lily’s is extremely nervous. She watches Rex’s actions without blinking. The more uncertain she is, the
more stubbornly she says. “Rex, return the phone to me.”

This time, out of Lily’s expectation, Rex cooperates. He says “I’ll call you later” to Karl and hands the
phone to Lily.

Lily takes it but doesn’t dare to say anything. She immediately hangs it up.

Once again, the office falls into silence. When their eyes meet, she can’t hide her panic anymore.

A lie is exactly such a thing. Once the deceived one realizes something, the lie would be like a sandbag
which is torn open. Everything would pour out and can’t be blocked.

“Rex … Ah!” Lily opens her mouth and is about to say something. However, before she can make a
sound, Rex kisses her.

His cold thin lips press on hers. He is neither gentle nor patient. His tongue rushes straight into her
mouth and sweeps over almost every corner of her mouth. He bites her lips so forcefully that she feels
pain, but he swallows all her cries of pain.

His other hand touches her exposed fair skin between her neck and collar. His rough fingers slide
across her delicate skin, causing her to tremble. His movements are lustful, but his eyes are clearly
filled with coldness.

Lily knows that he is venting his emotions in this way. He wants her to feel his emotions.



After a while, when Lily is almost suffocated by the kiss, Rex loosens his grip slightly. Her lips are
swollen from being bitten by him. On them even remains his saliva.

Rex raises his hand and puts Lily’s hair beside her ears to her back. All he can see is her tender and
fair little face. How long has it been since he saw her rosy cheeks? She has been suffering for him all
the time.

The illness comes on him, but she feels worse than him.

“Come with me to see Karl tomorrow.” Rex’s Adam’s apple rolls a few times. His voice is hoarse. “I
want to have a body check.”
