Just as Lily is about to refuse, her phone vibrates, and there comes a call.
Seeing that it is from Louis, she says goodbye to Victor and pick it up.
Louis says in a deep voice, "I'll arrive at Yorkshire Airport at 10 a.m. Can you come back at noon? If you can't come back, we'll have dinner together tonight."
David has told him that she is in Hanchi, but he doesn't know why she is there.
"Louis...," The truth fills her heart with sorrow, and she doesn't even know how to tell this to Louis.
After they were back together again, they promised each other that they would share everything and no longer lie.
But should he know about that thing?
He shouldn't know about it. Even John shouldn't do it either.
Louis notices it and says softly, "What? Do you encounter difficulties in Hanchi? Shall I go to Hanchi to bring you back?"
Lily just lowers her head and bites her lips with a pair of tearful eyes.
What should she say?
Someone cautiously hugs Lily from behind, and his head leans against the back of her neck.
The man whispers like a wounded animal, "Please... don't leave me alone. I have nothing left."
Lily holds the phone in her hand and doesn't move, but tears flow out from her eyes and fall on the dresser.
She looks at the ring on her ring finger.
She can't help but recall the scene of him putting a ring on her finger on the cruise ship.
There is no doubt that she loves this man very much.
But....
Lily calms down and says, "Louis, let's break up."
"Lily, are you kidding??" Louis shouts, as if he is enraged. "Where are you now? I'll go meet you."
"Let's break up," Lily repeats, "I'm tired of you. We have personality clashes, and you're not my type."
Louis asks again, "Where are you? Tell me!"
"I will ask Jessie to help me return the gifts and ring to you. Let's end it like this."
After she finishes speaking, she quickly hangs up the phone, with tears streaming down her face again.
If Louis knows the truth, he will definitely kill John. John helped her in her most difficult time before, so she cannot let this happen.
Jonathan knows everything and wants to reveal the truth bit by bit, so that they will kill each other. She can only break up with him and try her best to prevent his plot from succeeding.
John pulls her over and sees that she is crying so hard. He uses his thumb to wipe away her tears. He seems to waver in his resolution, saying, "If you love him so much and want to go back...."
Seeing how sad she is, he also feels distressed.
Lily catches a glimpse of the bandage on his chest and tries to smile, saying, "No, I've already broken up with him. Go sit in the living room, and I'll make breakfast for you."
John's grey eyes seem to shine brightly. He nods and goes to the living room.
Lily calms down and prepares breakfast quickly.
She calls Jessie and asks her to pack the gifts and send those to David. If possible, she can ask for the address of Justin's laboratory, since she can't go back now.
Jessie whispers, "Then what about Mr. Smith?"
"I break up with him," Lily says calmly, "It was Burnell's fault. Louis is innocent; so is John. I don't want to see them kill each other."
