"Claire..." Seeing Claire trotting away, Frank chased after her. But before leaving, he also glared at Lily and at Eden.
Receiving the glares from the two of them one after another, Lily felt a little confused. She could understand why Frank glared at her, but what did Claire mean by that? After all, it was she who told the truth for her. She didn't appreciate it, but she even glared at her, as if it was her fault.
Eden patted on Lily's head and said, "Don't be angry."
Huh? Angry? Confused, Lily turned her head to look at Eden. Then she heard him say, "If you are angry for Claire's glare at you just now, I apologize for her. If you are angry for Frank, it's unnecessary. It's not worth getting angry for such a person."
Lily blinked her eyes and realized that he had misunderstood. He thought she was angry, so she suddenly smiled. "I'm not angry. I just think Claire is too simple. After Frank said a few words, she forgave him."
Hearing this, Eden frowned imperceptibly. Frank's previous explanation was a mess. If a man really loved a woman, there would be no such a problem. After all, he was just using Claire.
"I will talk to father and mother about this matter. Claire is still young. We can't let Frank destroy her." He spoke out his thoughts.
"Okay." Lily answered absent mindedly.
Now she didn't have much time to care about how they would deal with this matter. Anyway, it was not her business. Just now, she said that Claire was simple, because in front of Eden. What she and Frank had done to her in her previous life was still vivid in her mind.
However, Frank was so bad that he even used such an excuse to deceive others. What kind of impulse and what kind of need were all lies, OK?
It was an excuse for him to cheat on her. But it was not surprising for a bad man like Frank to say it out loud.
"Let's go inside. It's cold outside." Eden looked at her and said.
"Okay." Lily replied with a smile. Being protected and cared by Eden, she felt an unprecedented sense of warmth in her heart.
The two entered the room one after another, only to meet Lucia and Jade. The two women couldn't get involved in the discussion between Simon and Dillon, so they could only talk about the topic between women. But they didn't expect that just now, they saw Claire running back to the room with a red face, and then followed up by Frank.
When they were about to catch up and ask what had happened, they saw Eden and Lily coming in. So, Lucia pulled Eden and asked, "What's wrong with your sister?"
Pursing his lips, Eden took a look at Jade, he didn't look well. "Mom, you should ask Frank."
Frank? Lucia frowned subconsciously. She suddenly thought of what happened before dinner and realized. She had experienced it. How could she not know that Frank's explanation today was an excuse?
"Frank?" Jade continued. She looked at Eden in confusion, "Did Claire get angry because of Frank?"
"What do you think?" Eden asked with a fake smile.
Hearing his question, Jade was stunned. He suddenly caught a glimpse of Lily behind Eden and said, "I know. It must be you who seduced him You are too close to the Frank, so you make Claire angry."
She wanted to say the two words "seduce", but when she thought that it was in the Qiao family's old house, it was not appropriate to say so, so she changed her words.
Hearing this, Lily was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. Jade was smart enough. She didn't know how her brain was made up. How could she make up such a reason? And she was so righteous!
Taking a step forward, Lily stood straight in front of Jade and looked at her calmly. "Aunt, out of politeness, I call you aunt. Please think it over before you speak, okay? I'm now the fiancee of Eric, which even grandpa has agreed. Do you think I will still be so reckless to have anything to do with your son?"
"But you and Frank were in the back garden at the very beginning." Jade said with certainty. After dinner, she went to talk to Frank and knew that he was going to the back garden. So she followed the direction and saw that he was indeed with Lily.
Then she saw Eden appear. She thought they were talking about something, so she didn't go to see her son. She didn't expect that Claire ran back to her room with red eyes and her son followed her.
