Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 3

Hurrying to the back garden, Lily quickly collected the pollen of two flowers and dashed back to the bedroom. Time was running out, and she had to stop Lucia before she left.

Recalling from the past life, Lily remembered that Claire had an allergic constitution, especially to pollen. At the last minute, Lily had thought of this.

After taking a bottle of perfume from her bedroom, Lily deliberately wiped the pollen on it. Then, she went to Claire's room.

The door was open. Lily walked straight in and said, "Claire, shall we make up?"

Claire had been unhappy because of what happened earlier, and she didn't look any better when Lily entered.

"Are you still mad at me?" Lily walked to Claire with a smile on her face. Then she took Claire's hand and tucked the perfume into her hands like a peace offering. "This perfume is my gift to you. Though it can't compare with the one you gave to me, it's my gift to you. Please forgive me, okay?"

After all, Claire was a child. It was still easy for her to get angry and equally easy to cheer up. Besides, Claire's heart hadn't wanted to quarrel with Lily when she initially entered the Qiao family. Therefore, she also smiled. "All right, Lily. Let's make up."

"Great!" Lily nodded with a smile and returned to her room, allegedly to rest because of her knees injury.

However, as soon as Lily left, the smile on Claire's face immediately crumpled with contempt. She glanced at the perfume bottle in her hand, opened the window, and threw it out in disgust.

Lily didn't return to her room. She went to the window instead and watched over the situation in the front yard, while also paying attention to the movement in Claire's room.

Time passed. Lucia was about to get into the car, but Claire still had not reacted.

Just as Lily felt her anxiety reach its zenith, there was a rush of footsteps coming from the second floor. Then she saw a servant running to Lucia, gasping for breath and saying, "Oh, my God. Mrs. Lucia, I don't know what's wrong! Miss Claire's whole face is swollen, and her arms are red and swollen."

Witnessing this scene, Lily smiled with satisfaction and turned back to her room.

"What?" Lucia had just gotten into the car, but she immediately climbed out when she heard the servant's words. She turned and rushed to Claire's room.

She made a phone call as she walked. "I have something to deal with. You can go ahead and do as planned."

Knowing that Lucia had been successfully stopped, Lily took her bag and immediately went downstairs. When she arrived at the first floor, she met Eden, who was going upstairs to see Claire.

"Are you going out?" Eden looked at Lily coldly with a slight frown on his austere features.

"Well, Becky just called me. I have to go out for a while." Lily blurted out the name, Becky, which she would never forget in her life.

'Why is she going out at this moment?' he thought. Eden looked at her suspiciously, but didn't ask more, instead continuing upstairs.

Watching him vanish up the stairs, Lily did not stop and ran to the backyard of the Qiao family home.

The backyard was a special place where the servants of the Qiao family lived. Lily walked to the front of a door that she remembered so well. When she was about to raise her hand to knock on the door, a slightly surprised voice sounded beside her. "Miss Lily?"

"Uncle Colin." Lily turned around and saw Colin Li. In excitement she grabbed his hand, looked around, and deliberately lowered her voice. "There is something you need to help me with, and you must not refuse."

Seeing her sage expression, Colin Li knew that whatever it was, it was serious. He pledged, "Miss Lily, tell me. No matter what happens, I will do everything I can to support you!"

Lily put the address into Colin Li's hand and whispered, "Uncle Colin, I want you to go somewhere with me."

"Okay," Colin Li agreed without hesitation. He didn't ask for the details, for he knew that as long as Miss Lily asked it, he would not refuse.

Lily didn't even consider that he could reject her. He had been her mother's driver when he was with the An family. He had followed her mother to the Qiao family after she had married Lily's father.

However, when he arrived at the Qiao family, he was treated like a common servant, but he still didn't leave. He was as faithful and loyal as a favored hound.

After arriving at their destination, Lily asked Colin Li to park his car out of sight, and then took him to her mother's house.

As soon as the door opened, Lily walked into the room. When she saw her mother, her eyes immediately turned red. Refraining from jumping into her arms, Lily held her hand and led her out. "Mom, we have to leave here as soon as possible."

"Lily, where are we going?" Tina An was not in good shape, and her face was extremely gaunt, which might have been due to the stress of her expulsion from the Qiao family.

"Let's get out of here first." Looking around the messy room, Lily picked up the key on the coffee table and pulled Tina An away.

Assessing the situation, Colin Li hurried to keep up with them.

It was not until they safely got into the car that Lily heaved a sigh of relief. Just now, she had left with Tina An in such a hurry because she was worried that Lucia might not be delayed a long time due to Claire's allergic reaction to the pollen. Lily feared Lucia's imminent arrival.

"Lily, are you going to take Mom to the Qiao family's house?" asked Tina worriedly.

"No, I'm not." Lily shook her head and gazed at her lovingly. She held Tina's hands tightly, and there were all sorts of feelings storming in her heart. Even though she had a lot to say, now was not a good time to talk.

"Miss Lily, where are we going now?" Colin asked from the driver's seat.

Hearing that, Lily looked at Colin and said, "Uncle Colin, you need to take my mother away for now and find a safe place to live. Remember, don't let anyone else know where she is!"

"I understand!" Colin nodded his head solemnly and asked, "What about you? Why don't you come with us?"

Lily shook her head. "You go ahead. I have something else to do first."
