"Eric, don't talk nonsense." Jade's face darkened. "You have to prove it."
Hearing her words, a sly and charming smile appeared on Eric's face. He said, "Aunt, just as you wish."
After saying that, he turned to look at Lily. "Girl, you hold mother and go back to rest first."
"How about you?" Lily asked subconsciously. She looked at him with worried eyes. Although she knew him well, she was still afraid that he would do something out of line in such a situation.
"I have something to deal with." After saying that, he walked a few steps closer to Lily and put the suitcase in front of her. "Also take the luggage back."
As soon as he finished speaking, he bent over to hold her face and imprinted a kiss on the corner of her lips. This kiss did not consider anyone else present.
He pushed her away with only a gentle kiss, his eyes sparkling with something Lily couldn't understand. "You don't have to go back today. Take care of mom for me, and I'll be back soon."
"Eric," When he turned around and was about to leave, Lily reached out and grabbed his hand. She looked at him worriedly and asked, "Can you tell me what you are going to do? Going out like this not only makes me worried, but also your mother."
"Don't worry. I won't do anything out of line." Eric patted her on the hand and whispered in her ear, "I'm going to find my brother."
"Yes." Hearing his words, Lily felt relieved and nodded. She let go of his hand and watched him leave.
Eric left in a hurry. Before he left, he turned his head and looked at jade. His eyes were sharp and he smiled coldly.
Jade couldn't help shivering when she saw him acting like this. She had never seen Eric like this. The look in his eyes and the way he looked like were out of his age.
"Auntie, let me help you go home." Lily withdrew her sight, with one hand holding Angela's arm and the other holding the suitcase.
"Yes." Angela nodded. She didn't want to stay here, she was annoyed to see Jade.
"Lily..." After walking a few steps, Angela turned her head to look at Lily who was holding her arm. "Who is the brother that Eric said?"
Lily was stunned, and stopped for a second. Then, she looked up and met with her gaze, saying, "Aunt, I don't want to lie to you, nor do I want to hide anything from you. But it's not appropriate for me to tell you that. I'll ask Eric to tell you in person when he comes back."
When she heard this, Angela frowned unconsciously, but she did not ask again. She knew that Lily did not say it for her own reason.
Seeing that Angela did not ask more questions, Lily glanced at her from the corner of her eye and pressed her lips. The reason why she said so was that she took into account the relationship between Angela and Noble.
After all, she had divorced with Sun family before, and now Richard made such a mess. She certainly didn't want her parents to know, after all, it was something related to the face.
But if she didn't know that Eric had connections with the Sun family, Lily thought it was not a good idea to do so. She would know it sooner or later.
After thinking it over, Lily finally decided to let Eric decide whether to tell her or not.
When Eric arrived at Noble's house, he just got up and went out of the bathroom after washing himself. He wore a pure white bathrobe, with water dripping from his hair.
"You've figured it out?" Noble looked at Eric sitting opposite and asked.
Eric looked into his eyes and frowned. He did not respond to him at once. Instead, he looked at him for a long time before he nodded and said, "Yes."
"You've figured it out?" Asked Noble in a serious tone. He reached for a cigarette from the coffee table, and then lit it. After taking a deep breath, he slowly blew out the smoke, and it lingered around the two persons.
"Yes." Eric nodded firmly and said, "Yes, I have."
"Now that you have made up your mind, you can't go back on your word." Said Noble in a calm tone, but the smile in his eyes betrayed his mood at the moment.
He was quite satisfied with Eric's decision at this moment, and he was also very happy!
"I know." Eric replied, "You and Ellison are quite right. I was too naive in the past. I thought living a normal life would be the happiest thing for me as long as I didn't fight for anything. But that's not the truth. I won't attack, but someone attacked me. Now I feel so incompetent."
"Haha." Noble laughed, not mocking at all. "This is the life of a so-called rich family. As long as you are in this family, even if you are a fool and don't have any ability to fight, there will still be people trying to plot against you, because your existence is a threat."
Eric licked his lips and didn't say anything. The Gu family was not a real big family, but Sun family was. But Sun family couldn't find someone to take over the family business.
"Eric, thank you for having thought things through at such a crucial moment." Taking another draw on his cigarette, Noble then stubbed out his half smoked cigarette in the ashtray. His handsome face was full of smile and he said, "You have saved me once. Thank you very much."
Hearing that, Eric frowned, but soon he understood what he meant. He asked with a smile, "Is grandpa forced you to marry again?"
"Yes." "Grandfather has given me an ultimatum. If I couldn't persuade to you take over his career after new year. I will marry Dora… Hump."
