Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 154

They looked in the direction of the door at the same time and then looked back at each other. Lily blushed and said in a low voice, "Maybe mom is up. You go to open the door."

There was also a trace of embarrassment on Eric's face. "You go."

If the two go to open the door like this, the discerning person can see at a glance that they have just done or are going to do something, or even are doing something, and were interrupted midway.

Standing up, Lily took a deep breath and tried to adjust her breath. She decided to go. After all, she was much better than Eric when facing her mother.

To make himself look more natural, Eric went straight to the window and opened it, letting the cold wind blow on his face.

Becky knocked on the door for a while, but no one answered. Then she pushed the door open.

"Why don't you open the door?" After entering the room, she saw both of Eric was standing by the window, and Lily stood by the bed and seemed to be sitting and breathing.

Hearing that, Lily smiled awkwardly. "I was about to get up to open the door for you, but you opened it yourself."

Becky didn't blame her, instead, she gave the box to Lily and said, "This is for you. Hope you like it."

Lily was stunned for a while. Then she took the gift, a guilty look flashing across her face. "I'm sorry, Becky. I forgot to prepare you a gift."

She had asked her what kind of gift she liked before. She mentioned that they would have the same birthday in the same day, but she forgot to prepare it.

"It doesn't matter. I send you a gift not for you to send me another one." With a bright smile, Becky reached out and took her hand. "Happy Birthday! Wish us a happy birthday!"

"Yes." Facing with her sincere words, Lily's eyes suddenly turned red. She choked, "Happy Birthday to us!"

Standing by the window, Eric looked at them with a smile on his face. He had been with Lily for several months, and among all the friends around her, only Becky loved her the most.

Almost everything she was looking out for her. Although she often quarreled with him at the beginning, she was always nice to Lily.

"I'll have someone look into your mother's thing." He looked at Becky and said.

Hearing this, Becky turned to look at him and said with a smile, "Thank you. But mom just called and said that it's not a big deal. Ken is investigating it."

Hearing that, Eric turned to look at Lily and frowned doubtfully, as if to question what she had said before.

Of course, Lily could understand what he meant by his eyes. She said, "Eric, what I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can investigate. You can definitely find out the evidence."

She didn't say Ken. After all, it was hard to say because Becky was here. Because Alice trusted Ken, Becky also trusted him very much. If one day she spilled in front of Ken, things would be difficult.

"Well, I believe you." Eric nodded.

"What are you talking about?" Asked Becky, looking confused.

"Nothing." Lily immediately said, and then changed the topic and began to talk about other things.

As a man of his word, Eric asked for help the investigation. The next day, he got help from someone, but it was Ellison who he was looking for.

He just started his career and didn't have many connections. He was still at the weak stage.

But at the same time, he did something that made Ellison want to kick him away. That was, he had told Hailey where he had been!

As soon as he got the result, they made an appointment to meet at a cafe near Ellison's company.

"Eric!" With the document bag in his hand, Ellison walked towards Eric with a murderous look on his face. "You dared to sell me out! How could you do that?"

Throwing the folder in his hand in front of Eric, while cursing him, he pulled out a chair and sat down in front of him.

"I'm not betraying." Looking up at him, Eric was very indifferent. He took the file bag and started to dismantle it. "This is my relationship with Hailey. She helped me investigate one thing and I will tell you where you hide, but then I broke the contract, as compensation, I can only tell her where you are hiding."

"Your deal. Can you stop gambling on me?" Ellison was very dissatisfied. He glared at the man who was reading the documents calmly. "She left me no freedom. You know her temper. When she found me, she was so angry that she even wanted to eat me alive."

"Well, now that you are all right in front of me, then it means nothing happened." Eric didn't raise his head but to look at the documents carefully.

Hearing that, Ellison was angrier. He stood up and held the documents in Eric's hand. He leaned forward and glared at him fiercely. "If it were not for you, I would still be in the gentle village. How can I be controlled by someone like now?"
