Chapter 331 - 334: Seeking Aidan Lucas’ Help (5th Update, Reward for Extra Chapter)
Upon hearing Aidan Lucas’s voice, Lily Gray’s heart involuntarily cramped in pain.
How long had it been since they last spoke like this?
The plea for help was stuck in her throat, unable to be uttered for a moment.
Given their current relationship, asking him for help… on what grounds?
Even if she asked, would Aidan Lucas agree?
As she hesitated, the man’s deep and magnetic voice sounded again, “What happened?”
It seemed as if he sensed Lily Gray’s unease, and this time, there was a bit more concern than before.
Although the change was barely noticeable.
But Lily Gray was still able to perceive it acutely.
It seemed that he wasn’t completely indifferent to her after all.
With that thought, Lily Gray finally mustered the courage to ask for help.
“My friend, Skye Brown… you met her last time. She’s the director of our TV series, the one jointly produced by the Gray and Wellington families. Our company’s vice president called me from the set just now, saying Skye was taken away by Mr. Wellington’s men. The reason being, there was a conflict between Skye and a female star that Mr. Wellington has been promoting recently.”
“I called Mr. Wellington and Skye, but neither of them answered their phones…”
Lily Gray said this, stopped, and waited for Aidan Lucas’s response.
She had made it very clear. Aidan Lucas must understand the intent behind her call for help, right?
As she thought this, she heard Aidan Lucas ask, “So… what do you want me to do?”
Unexpectedly, he asked this way.
She had been too presumptuous indeed.
Thinking that explaining the situation would make him help her voluntarily.
Lily Gray suddenly found it hard to speak.
To beg him…
On what ground and in what capacity?
But if she didn’t ask… Skye…
Thinking of Skye Brown, Lily Gray’s clear eyes showed a hint of determination.
No, for Skye’s sake, she would swallow her pride.
He had always looked down on her anyway.
What’s the difference in being looked down upon once more?
“Mr. Lucas, I… I want to ask for your help. Please save Skye… She doesn’t know Mr. Wellington’s temper, she must have provoked him. Please, Mr. Lucas, save Skye for the sake of our marriage!”
Even if it was just an agreement, they were still husband and wife.
Though she found Dylan Wellington to be a nice person in their few encounters.
But there were too many rumors about him in A City.
The woman favored by Dylan Wellington would receive his undivided pampering.
That Olivia Campbell had informed Mr. Wellington about Skye’s condition and Skye was immediately taken away by his men.
Who knew what kind of torment she was enduring now!
“Huh, Mr. Lucas?”
Aidan Lucas laughed out of anger, and in a place unseen by Lily Gray, his lips curled into a cold, disdainful smile.
“Lily Gray, it’s not impossible for me to help you, but is this all the sincerity you have?”
Sincerity-
Lily Gray suddenly realized, that’s right, she had been too insincere.
Considering Aidan Lucas’s past approach, how could she ask him without any “gesture”?
“You’re right, Mr. Lucas. I was presumptuous. Tonight when I come home, 1 will be in the room waiting for you…”
The last few words were almost choked out while forcing back tears.
She closed her eyes tightly, gripping her other hand, trying to force back the tears in her eyes.
Once tender memories became the most luxurious memories at this moment.
“Who said I wanted that?” Aidan Lucas interrupted her coldly.
In Lily Gray’s eyes, was he that kind of person?
“It’s not that 1 won’t help you… after all, you are Mrs. Aidan Lucas. But, the title ‘Mr. Lucas’ is not for you to call..”
