Translator: 549690339
Lily Gray was held in Aidan Lucas’s arms, her fright was no less than that of Vivian Walters and the others.
She belonged to a different social class than Vivian Walters and others, and she had long heard of “Mr. Lucas’s” ruthless and decisive methods.
But rumors are just rumors. After actually interacting with Aidan Lucas, she felt his dominance was detestable, but he never really treated her harshly.
Were it not for what she witnessed today, Lily Gray might have almost forget about those rumors about Aidan Lucas that she’d heard.
She unwittingly lowered her breathing, leaning timidly into his embrace, not daring to move recklessly.
It was only at this moment that she realized the sheer power of the man holding her.
Once a person can arbitrarily determine the fate of another’s life or death, others can only seem more lowly and insignificant in comparison.
At this moment, it seemed she truly felt for the first time the unbridgeable chasm between her and this man.
Aidan Lucas held her as he walked back.
As soon as the woman in his arms calmed down and stopped struggling, he immediately noticed the distinct change in her body.
Stiff and nervous. Clearly, she was afraid of him.
His gaze fell upon her partially concealed face.
He, Aidan Lucas, was a person whose emotions did not show readily on his face, and was deeply insightful of human nature.
Just a few glances confirmed his suspicion.
Great, Lily Gray, this ungrateful woman, he helped to discipline those people for her, and she dared to fear him!
Aidan Lucas’s gaze gradually turned cold, and a layer of thin ice immediately covered the gloom at the bottom of his eyes.
His aura dropped significantly. For various complex reasons, Lily Gray had always been very observant of his emotional changes.
Feeling Aidan Lucas’s worsened mood, she shrank her neck, more afraid to speak.
The two of them remained silent until Aidan Lucas carried her back to the patient room.
“Oh my… Madam is back! Sir, thank goodness you came in time…I was so scared just now, I thought…” The nurse helped Aidan Lucas open the door to the ward fully as they entered.
She was saying concerned words when she inadvertently met Aidan Lucas’s dark and gloomy face, immediately shutting up.
Not daring to say another word, the nurse scuttishly closed the door and left, giving them space.
Watching as the room was suddenly left with only herself and Aidan Lucas, Lily Gray was even more uneasy.
She was put back in bed by Aidan Lucas, who remained silent.
And the man who carried her to bed, far from leaving, instead conveniently sat down at the edge of the bed.
Cough cough… Lily Gray swallowed unconsciously, being amidst an even more delicate atmosphere.
She sat at the head of the bed, leaning against the pillow, always looking down at her fingers but not daring to look up at him.
Aidan Lucas, however, obviously had more patience than her.
She could feel his penetrating gaze falling on her, but he kept silent, and she dared not speak, thus they remained in a deadlock.
After waiting for quite a while, still, no one spoke. Lily Gray suddenly felt this couldn’t go on.
As the old saying goes, a hand does not strike a smiling face. She couldn’t sit around and do nothing.
No matter what, it was always right to show submission first!
Lily Gray raised her head and peered at Aidan Lucas. Even when she met his pair of icy cold, jet-black eyes, causing her heart to tremble, she still mustered the courage to bat her eyes at him.
She opened her mouth, sounding pitiful: “I’m sorry… I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have disobeyed you, acted impulsively, running out and almost getting our baby hurt… I promise, it will absolutely not happen again, so please stop being angry..”
