Rex knows that Tim would be a cornered beast who will do something desperate and use his last effort to harm Lily and him. Hence, he has made a preparation in advance, which is ordering Smith to summarize all of his doing during the time.
Inside the meeting room, Smith hands him the documents, “Rex, this files are enough for Tim to pay the price.”
Rex takes over and briefs at him. Indeed, as Smith said, adding all of them together will be enough for the end of Tim. This is also one of the reasons for him to postpone his revenge.
He has never planned to adjudge him little by little, but plans to make him lose everything at once.
Letting him fall from the clouds to the abyss, he won’t be able to climb for sure.
Especially when he recalls the memory of what he had done to Lily, there is no more kindness left.
“Prepare for it. let’s take it to the court.”
Smith breathes a sigh of relief. This case has been with him for so long, it has been a burden for him. At this time, there is finally a progress which makes him feels a lot easier, “Okay.”
However, Rex doesn’t expect that Tim would reach out to his family.
When he receives a call from the two elderly, he is preparing to go home with Lily in the car. Only half of their words, he suddenly stops the car and gets off, wearing only a thin shirt in the snowy ground.
Lily is distressed by looking it and takes his coat off to hand it to him. However, when her hand just touches the doorknob, the car suddenly locked.
‘Click’
She looks up at the man beside the car. He doesn’t look at her, but only holding his phone while taking two steps away.
Lily’s hands tighten on the coat, her eyebrows presses together.
…..
“Rex, tell me what is going on. Someone sent a bunch of photo to us today. Only by mentioning it could make us mad. We have no idea who it is that sent us a bunch of naked photo. The recipient writes your name.”
Rex freezes instantly, “What does the woman look like in the picture?”
“Black medium long, her face is not big… huft, your grandpa and I didn’t take a closer look, it was too….” The elderly stops and doesn’t continue to say it, it is kind of hard to speak out.
Although it is merely a simple description, Rex could almost confirm that the person in the photo is definitely Lily.
He pushes his tongue against the inner wall of his mouth and crooks his neck. His face rises a fierce emotion, “Keep the photo, I’ll take it later.”
“Okay.” The old man is still unease, “Who is this person? Do you recognize them?” Rex’s black pupils are bottomless and cold, “I’ll tell you later.”
….
After hanging up the call and hopping in the car, Rex says nothing and restarts the car.
Lily, who notices his unstable and apparently low mood, frowns more tightly, “What’s wrong, does anything happened?”
“Nothing?” Rex replies quickly, as if he is not interested to talk.
By looking at his mood, Lily doesn’t ask further. They keep silent along the way till home.
The car parks in front of the Villa and is unlocked. The man helps her unfasten her seat belt, “I still have something to do, I won’t be late, and you get in first.”
Seeing that he doesn’t move, Lily couldn’t bear it any longer, “What the hell is going on?”
“It’s none of your business.” Rex is upset and doesn’t want to let her know. As the result, he speaks a little aggressive, which he quickly regrets it, and also doesn’t know how to explain it.
Lily doesn’t give him any chance to explain and pulls the door to get off stiffly.
