Let's Get Married

Chapter 698: Give Him a Slap

"Rex!" Lily growls at the screen of her phone. Her heart is beating fast. The Gabbot family is still immersed in the grief of the death of Mr. Adonis. At this critical moment, she can't trouble anyone but herself.

Luckily, the elevator arrives soon. She goes in and presses a button on the first floor. After arriving at the main hall, she walks to the front gate of the hospital. Turning left is a small garden. On the right, it leads to the outside of the hospital.

The car is parked in the underground garage. He doesn't drive his car and shouldn't go far.

With a gambling mind, Lily grits her teeth and walks to the garden. Fortunately, there are street lamps in the garden. Although the light is dim, she can see everything inside.

She walks straight through the entrance, passing through a small bamboo forest. There are round wooden chairs on both sides, which is the only place to sit down and rest.

Sure enough, just as she reaches the bamboo forest, she sees a figure sitting on a chair in the distance, but doesn't dare to relax.

She pads along the road. Standing in front of that person, she feels relieves when confirms that it isn't someone else.

It's him.

It's him.

The restlessness and anxiety that surges and disappears have tortured her twice in a short time. Even if Lily has a strong heart, she can't withstand this kind of torment.

"Rex, stand up! Stand up like a man!" she says, stretches out her hand, and tugs at his collar as she sees the man with his head drooped, as if he has lost a battle.

Seemingly startled by her sudden action, he stands up. Although he cooperates, his eyes do not have any light. He looks slack and lifeless.

The spirit that supports him has disappeared. He wanders around like a walking dead.

Seeing his appearance, Lily feels both heartache and anger. When she thinks of his irresponsible actions and her fear that he disappeared shortly just now, she feels dizzy.

Is this the way he wants to humiliate himself?

Or could it be that behaving like this could bring Mr. Adonis back?

Is he the only one who is grieved! What's about her?

"Cheer up and wake up!" Lily shouts at him, regardless of the saliva that she spat on his face. "No one wants to see you like this. Do you understand?"

Her hysterical cry reaches his ears, as light as a feather. He mutters to himself, "You don't understand. You don't understand at all...."

Lily feels powerless instantly. In the past few days, she accompanied him and comforted him with all her heart out. And the end, all she gets is that she doesn't understand.

She is aware that Rex knows she can understand his feelings. However, at this moment, he has blocked everything. He doesn't want to find out who is to blame, nor does he want to be responsible for anything.

The sadness on her chest is burned with anger. The next second, Lily makes a move that even she doesn't expect. She raises her arm and throws it fiercely at him....

"Bang!"

A crisp sound explodes in the air. She puts her arm down, and her palm is burning. His handsome face jerks to the left, the imprint of an open hand standing out on it. It can tell how hard she slaps him.

"I know you're sad, painful, and unwilling to accept the truth. But are you the only one in the world who's heart-broken? Don't I feel heartache when I see you like this and Mr. Adonis leave?" As Lily speaks, she takes two steps back. She raises her hand and pokes her chest. Her eyes are filled with tears as she questions him. "You're sad, so am I and even worse. Beside Mr. Adonis, I still care about you, Adair, and the family. I despise you for being defeated so easily! If you overlook what I did for you and my pains, you can pretend that I haven't said anything and continue to be immersed in the sorrow. Let's see if the spirit of Mr. Adonis in heaven would like to see you like this!"

After she finishes speaking, she immediately turns around and leaves. The moment she does, tears fall from her eyes, and all her emotions surge up. She hits him. She is clearly the one who hits him, but she is even more painful than him.

She doesn't want to do that. But there is nothing she can do. Seeing him collapse and get crazy, she doesn't know what methods she could use to help him.

The moment she can't find him, she is at a loss, as if the whole world has vanished.

However, before she takes a few steps, the man grabs her arm. After struggling for a while, she doesn't break free and is pulled into his embrace. He hugs her tightly from behind.

He puts his chin on the side of her neck, his rapid breath spraying on her skin. Lily keeps wiggling her body and tears fall on the back of his hands wrapped around her waist.

"Let go ... let go of me...."

"I'm sorry." He finally opens his mouth. His voice is hoarse. His throat is so dry that every word seems to crack. "I don't know what to do...."

You don't know what to do.

Lily laughs with anger, "If you don't know what to do, you should face it. Escaping the problem can't make it disappear."

Mr. Adonis has passed away. Although ruthless, it is a fact. No one can change it. Since that is the case, he has no other choice but to face it.

"How long do you want to deceive yourself, or do you want to keep feeling guilty like this? Mr. Adonis has already left. He can't see how guilty you are. Compared to a defeated man, he prefers to see you cheering up!"

Lily pours her heart out. After that, she feels extremely empty and helpless. In fact, no matter what she says, if this man doesn't listen, she is at the end of her wits.

No matter how much she says, he can't see her at all.

Rex tightly hugs her, who is trembling in his arms. Hearing her heart-piercing words, he feels terrible and becomes sober.

He is not alone but with a family, a wife, and a child. He needs to take care of them and others. He is too selfish, walking away and leaving everything to her.

"I'm sorry."

Apart from apologizing, he doesn't know what else to say.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"I don't need your apology, and I don't want to hear these words anymore. If you need some room to calm down, I'll give it to you," Lily says as she holds back her tears.

She is desperate to leave, even if it is only a moment. She needs it to catch her breath and face the problem again.

That kind of sadness mixed with enormous exhaustion emanates from the seams of the bones, burdening people.
