It was the first time for Tina to take Lily to visit the unborn child since she was born. It was also the first time that she, as a mother, came here.
Every time in Lily's birthday in the past, she would think of this, but since Dillon did not allow her to mention this at home, she resisted to say it. In order not to let Joe know the existence of the unborn child, she could only bear it on such a day.
So Joe still didn't know that he had an early grandson.
Before left, Lily glanced at the graves with no family name, no reputation, and no tombstone. A mixed feeling filled her heart.
When Lily first heard her mother say that those who were buried here were died as soon as he was born, she was surprised and even shocked. But now, she was not buried in these complex feelings any more. It seems that… The man who was buried in the coffin had nothing to do with her.
The restaurant was a hotel under the name of Kerr. Of course, it was not decided by him, or by Tina, or by Lily, but by Andrew.
When they arrived at the hotel, Andrew was already waiting at the gate. Seeing them get out of the car separately, he walked up to them with a smile.
"Dad, aunt Tina," He smiled to Kerr and Tina who were walking in front and then looked at Lily and Eric who were holding each other intimately. A trace of desolation flashed through his eyes, but he did not show it on his face.
"Lily, Eric." He was a little awkward to greet Eric.
"Brother Andrew." Lily replied with a smile. She let go of Eric's hand, walked to him, and looked him up and down. "I haven't seen you for a long time. You look much thinner. Have you been busy with your work?"
"I'm fine." Andrew smiled and took out a small gift box and handed it to her. "Happy birthday. I hope you like it."
"Thank you, brother." Lily took over the gift box with a smile. When she opened it, she saw a silver necklace pendant with a green diamond in the middle, shining in the sun.
"It's so beautiful." She took out the pendant and said, "I like it very much."
Seeing that she smiled so happily, Andrew couldn't help but smile. His eyes were full of love. "I'm glad that you like it."
"Brother, help me put it on." Lily didn't notice that they were at the gate of the hotel. She just handed the pendant to Andrew.
As for this, Andrew was more than happy. He took over the pendant and said with a smile, "Okay."
Looking at the two people wearing the pendant almost nobody else, Eric's face darkened, but he had to control himself. If it was before, he would have directly walked over to grab the pendant and threw it away, but then Andrew would have a chance to help her wear it!
But today was girl's birthday and there were adults present. He couldn't be so impulsive and lose his face in front of Tina. After all, she was a girl's mother, so he had to bear it!
After wearing it, Andrew helped her tidy up the hair scattered on her shoulders, and pointed the pendant at the position of her heart. Then he smiled with satisfaction, "It suits your skin very well. It looks good on you."
"Of course! It was from brother Andrew. It must look good on me!" Lily said with a happy smile.
"Well, let's get inside first." Kerr, who was holding Tina in his arms, smiled and said, "It's too cold to standing outside."
"Okay, let's get inside." Then Andrew turned around and was about to pull Lily's hand, he had already forgotten the presence of Eric.
But someone he forgot was faster than him. He put his hand on Lily's shoulder and kept her under his protection.
Andrew was surprised. He reached out to grab Lily's hand and stopped in midair. He furrowed his eyebrows. He also was unhappy when he saw the expression on Eric's face.
Eric looked at him, with a strong sense of possessiveness in his black eyes. The hand that had been holding Lily's shoulder now moved around her waist and clung to him, as if to announce that she was me and no one could covet her!
Lily, who was kept in his arms, could surely feel the hidden meaning of Eric. He pinched secretly at Eric's waist, indicating him to let her go. This was in front of the hotel, and it was hard for everyone to see it.
"Ahem!" At last, it was Kerr who interrupted the silent "battle". He glanced at Eric, and then his son. He sighed helplessly.
"Let's go inside. It's so cold outside."
Only then did the two of them withdraw their sight and do not look at each other.
When they entered the hotel, Eric deliberately walked behind them, holding Lily's waist.
"You are not allowed to be so close to him in the future." He whispered in her ear in a low but domineering voice.
On hearing this, Lily turned around, frowned, and whispered, "What's wrong with you? He will be my family soon."
They would become real brother and sister as soon as they got married.
