Let's Get Married novel Chapter 550

Lily's period comes all of a sudden. She always has period pains. Now, being trapped in such a damp place, she really feels worse.

Lily tries to take a shower every day, but she doesn't have any bath products. Her hair becomes dry and her body emits an indescribable smell, like the smell of mud under a river.

She remembers the water bottle that she has thrown away when they are in a mess. She does not know where the bottle is now. It has been three days. No one should have found it. Otherwise, how could nothing happen? Or perhaps the water bottle is stuck somewhere that it can't float away.

Lily sadly realizes that she actually gets used to the environment here because she knows they will not kill her now. She has less time to be in panic, but at a loss for what to do.

This numb feeling is even more devastating than fear. It is as if she is standing in an endless desert. She continues to walk in one direction, but she could not see the end. She is filled with the despair that she would never be able to walk out.

"What are you thinking?" Sitting opposite her, Hawk knocks on her bowl with his chopsticks to remind her not to get distracted.

Only then does Lily regain her senses, she picks up the rice bowl in front and randomly eats some. She doesn't know the taste of the simple boiled cabbage and noodles. "Nothing."

Hawk says no more, but looking at her with much deeper eyes. He is utterly unpredictable, so Lily doesn't even try to figure it out.

After the lunch, it is the hottest time at noon. The humidity in the mountain forest is already high. The transpiring air is filled with water molecules, making one feel sticky and stuffy.

Lily sits beside the bed, fanning herself with the wood board, while the man lying on the sofa at the side closes his eyes for rest.

She couldn't help but wonder, "Don't you think it is hot here?"

"I'm used to it."

"OK." After staying here for so long, he must have gotten used to it.

Hawk must have earned much money. He could build villas wherever he wants, and the amount he is worth is not lower than Rex. However, Hawk could only live such a hard life. No one knows what he asks for.

"Hawk." Lily clasps her hands about her knees to relieve the pain coming from her belly. She lowers her voice and says, "Have you never thought about letting me go one day?"

In the past few days, they live together peacefully. Lily doesn't know if it is because she has her period that Hawk doesn't touch her again. Perhaps he is afraid that it would be unlucky.

Hearing this, Hawk suddenly opens his eyes. He slowly turns around and his deep eyes fall on her face, with a sneer. "You've got some nerve. How dare you ask such a question?"

He has never seen a hostage dare to talk to him so calmly, and the content is so sensitive.

It is also a surprise to Lily. Lately, she feels that this man wouldn't hurt her.

She looks down at the cup beside her feet. It is yellow now. When she first gets here, it is still white. She mutters, "If you let go of me, maybe those people won't look for you anymore. Then, you can leave unscathed."

It is more of a joke for Hawk. "You should know more about Rex's temperament than me. I've kidnapped you for so long. He won't let things lie."

Lily notices his nonchalant appearance and has audacious idea inside. She clenches her hands, asking Hawk tentatively, "What if I help you?"

"Help me?" Hawk squints and sits straight, "What are you going to do?"

"I can beg him not to assign blame and I will tell him that you don't hurt me."
