Let's Get Married novel Chapter 362

The man appears to just notice her; he glances over and wants to anger her. But when his gaze falls upon her, it fixates on her.

Today, she is wearing a light pink jacket, a very fresh color. Inside she wears a V collar blouse. With a pair of whitewashed tight jeans, on her feet is a pair of white sneakers. Half of her hair is let down and half tied behind her head. One look and she appears to be a college student.

Rex immediately recalls the time they met in a bar five years ago. It was the same feeling. In the pompous and extravagant environment, she is like a daisy on the peak of a rocky outcrop.

Five years passed and the child is already so big. She is already twenty-nine years old. But time seems to be very kind to her. Not only is she spared from aging, but she also looks even younger.

She has a baby face and doesn’t look like the mother of a child, especially when she smiles.

Lily notices the deep stare of the man and feels uneasy and begins to adjust Adair’s collar to avoid his gaze.

What is he looking at with such concentration? Is there something on her face?

Lily endeavors to keep a neutral expression. She doesn’t want to appear in such a way that makes him misunderstand.

“What do you want to drink? Uncle will have someone prepare.” Rex waves for a waiter.

Adair ponders and says, “I want soda!”

“No.” Lily immediately objects, “Soda’s bad for your teeth, you can have some juice.”

“Okay.” Adair is not spoilt, “then I’ll have some orange juice, thanks.”

The waitress doesn’t look old and should be around twenty. Sees Adair being so cute and well-behaved, she praises, “What a cute kid!”

This is the first time Rex hears an outsider praising his son and he proudly replies, “Yes, he is lovely.”

“…” Lily looks by the side. In the past, she had seen him handling lawsuits and other major cases but she had never seen him having such a big reaction. It was just a compliment from others and he is so happy. It is like a huge issue for him.

She ponders about the time she gave birth and heard a nurse praising her child. It must be the same. At that time she was overjoyed. Now she is already used to it.

She realizes that what he is experiencing is similar to five years ago when she became a mother to someone. Lily couldn’t harden her heart towards him.

No matter what, he is the child’s biological father. It is a bond that will never break and they can’t escape from this relationship.

The three of them sit in the rest area. Most of the time Rex is talking to Adair and Lily just sits on one side listening. She will only reply occasionally when the child asks.

Soon, it is time to board the airplane. Rex leads the way and Lily holds onto Adair’s hand and follows behind. They step into the airplane after the boarding passes are checked.

Adair’s large eyes keep looking around curiously. The first class is different from the economy class. It is not that packed and the seats are bigger. Adair sits feels it very comfortable. “Mom, when will the airplane take off?”

Lily teaches him how to buckle up the seat belt, “We’re going to take off soon, are you afraid?”

“No.” He is very excited and shakes his head. Though he says that, Lily could see that it is his first time flying in an airplane and he is visibly anxious.
