Let's Get Married novel Chapter 105

The screen lights up. Lily opens the call history while gritting her teeth. The most recent call is written ‘Old house’ two words. It is right in the time when they were going on home.

Lily uses her fingertips to click it. It is a series of landline number, which is obviously called from the house.

Old house?

Is it the number from his old house?

After thinking about it, they have been together for quite some time, but Rex has never even once mention about his family. The only thing that she knows is about what Orson told her at that time.

Other than that, she knows nothing else.

People always have bad instincts, especially when facing the one they care the most, there will always be a glimpse of selfish desire. Lily is too absorbed that she doesn’t even notice when the door behind her opened. Just until the phone on her hand is taken away, she went stiff and unable to move.

She doesn’t even have a chance to lock the screen…..

Rex looks at the call history that she opened and his eyebrows presses together. There is no single emotion that could be heard in his voice, and he asks, “What do you want to see, huh?”

Lily bites her lower lip and says nothing. The tension and embarrassment of being caught turns into anger and grievances. Her anger keeps on fluctuating a few times but still couldn’t say a word in the end.

Rex locks the phone and throws it on the bed, “I’m asking you.” There is a question in his plain voice, and she heard it.

She inhales deeply and turns around. With a soft voice, she speaks out, “I… just wanted to know who you called you away, since you didn’t tell me, and I feels that it is quite serious, I’m just worried about you….”

“So you check out my phone?” Rex cuts her off and leans back, both hands supports on the bed and his slender legs folded together.

Lily’s eyelid quivers, her throat is like being blocked with cotton.

“Do you know what are you doing?” He continues to question her, despite of her gradually red eyes.

Lily knows she is wrong, but why didn’t he tell her?

If he is willing to say, she won’t do it.

“It is because I’m really about you, nothing else….”

“What are you worried about?” Rex rubs his back. As the matter of fact, he is also afraid, afraid that she finds out about the attitude of his grandparents and she would leave once again.

He is greedy that even he can’t manage it these relationship, he still wanted to keep her by his side.

Lily’s hands tighten, after some strength, she finally releases it, “Rex, you’ve told me not to lie before.”

She raises her head to look straight in his eyes, “What about you?”

Rex trembles deep inside his heart. Their gaze meet each other, no one speaks a word. After a while, he finally says, “There’s something I can’t tell.”

“What thing?” Lily points at the phone on the bed, “Business? Personal matter? Or about your family?”

His pupils dilate, not denying, “Family matters.”

“Okay.” Lily looks at him with a smile and nods, then turns around to walk out of the bedroom without asking anything else.

With a bang, the door closes and left him with silence.

Rex raises his head and closes his eyes, recalling his grandparents’ word, which makes him feel uneasy. The photos could be hidden in the car, what about the people?
