Chapter 569: Chapter 572: Pfft, You Don’t Even Know ‘Adorable in the Morning’
Although Hannah Ford really wanted to make Lily Gray back off,
Aidan Lucas simply wasn’t by her side.
“Is that so?” On the other end of the phone, Lily Gray’s voice suddenly relaxed.
“You didn’t mention it, I almost forgot… Ethan’s morning temper is indeed terrible.”
Hehe, how could she not know about Aidan Lucas’s morning temper while others don’t?
Hannah Ford actually said that Aidan Lucas is grumpy in the morning.
Thinking about how clingy and annoying the man was every time he woke up, Lily Gray suddenly felt no anger at all.
A woman who doesn’t even know about Aidan Lucas’s ‘adorable in the morning’ trait,
actually dares to lie and say she sleeps with him every night.
Thinking about this, Lily Gray couldn’t help but smile silently, “Well then, I won’t disturb Miss Ford and Ethan’s tender moments. Mmm, I have something else to do, so I’m hanging up.”
“Hey, wait—”
“Miss Ford, is there anything else?”
“You… you’re just going to hang up like this? Don’t you feel even the slightest bit jealous or angry?”
Hannah Ford felt confused.
How could Lily Gray remain calm after what she had just said?
Wasn’t she pregnant?
Weren’t pregnant women supposed to be easily agitated?
But why, until now, could she still keep her composure!
“Ha, what do I have to be jealous and angry about? Miss Ford, well… I’m tired and need to rest. If you’re bored, go spend more time with ‘your Ethan.’ Really, I’m hanging up, not saying anything more to you…”
Having said that, Lily Gray turned off her phone.
Then, holding her belly, she leaned back onto the sofa and laughed so hard she almost couldn’t straighten up.
“What’s so funny? How can you be so happy?” Skye Brown said irritably. “I can hear that woman’s cursing through the phone, and you can still laugh.”
“Pfft, what can’t I laugh at… Skye, you don’t know, it’s killing me with laughter…”
On this side, Lily Gray, unable to hold her laughter, told Skye Brown about Hannah Ford’s embarrassing slip-up.
On the other side, in the villa, Hannah Ford sat gloomily by the bed.
She held tightly onto a citrine necklace in her hand.
Looking at the necklace in her hand, all the humiliation and frustration she felt from Lily Gray earlier finally faded away slowly.
“Lily Gray… your triumph won’t last long…”
Originally, she wanted to save this necklace as a means to win Aidan’s favor in the future.
But now…
“Lily Gray, I will make you… deeply regret it!”

A few days later, Hannah Ford finally received news from the Presidential Palace.
The newly appointed President would hold a private banquet in A City in two weeks.
At that time, all the celebrities and dignitaries of A City will attend.
Even Aidan Lucas, who had not left the Lucas family’s mansion in the name of ‘recovering from injuries’ recently, would make an appearance.
“Hannah, my dear sister, I have arranged everything for the banquet. When Mr. Lucas appears, you must seize the opportunity yourself.”
“Thank you, sister. Don’t worry, I have already thought about what to do that day. The relationship between Ethan and I is not something that anyone else can compete with. Although Mrs. Lucas is his mother, love cannot be forced. When the day comes, I will put on the token of affection between the two of us, and Ethan will surely be moved…”
By now, Hannah Ford still believed,
that the biggest obstacle between Aidan Lucas and her was not Lily Gray, but the family behind Aidan.
She had decided to wear the citrine necklace at the banquet.
By then, all she needed to do was to evoke Aidan’s guilt and responsibility for the past.
Giving him a cup of drugged wine would definitely not be difficult.
Hehe, by then, with the evidence of the media photos,
she didn’t believe she, as the dignified Miss Ford, would lose to a destitute orphan from the Gray family.
