The Billionaire’s Fight For Redemption (Noah and Sierra) novel Chapter 399

Just as I’m about to leave, my phone buzzes in my hand. I glance down, expecting it to be Aunt Harper, but instead, Lilly’s name flashes across the screen, followed by a text message.

[I’m outside.]

I frown slightly, surprised because I wasn’t expecting her to come all the way here. I thought we would just meet at Aunt Harper and Uncle Gabe’s house.

“Mom, Lilly’s outside,” I say, slipping my phone into my bag.

She looks up , a small smile forming on her lips. “Didn’t know she was the one driving you there.”l

“Me too,” I press a quick kiss to her cheek. “I’ll see you later, okay?”

“Be safe,” she says softly.

“I will… and you too” I reply, “Remember you don’t have to do anything today. Just rest and I’ll come back with something for us to eat.”

She doesn’t look happy about it, but she agrees since we both know, with the truth still hanging over us, she probably won’t do much today.

I leave, and the moment I step outside, I spot Lilly’s car parked right in front of the house. I make my way over and slide into the passenger seat, turning to look at her.

“You didn’t have to come all the way here, you know.”

“I know,” She shrugs like it’s nothing. “I just wanted a moment between us. Just the two of us before you meet Mom.”

Something about that makes me smile and for a second, we just sit there before she turns on the ignition and pulls away.

“How are you doing? Like… really?”

I would usually brush it off, but not today. Today I don’t feel like giving the practiced answer I’m used. Besides this is Lilly we are talking about, she’ll keep pushing and pushing, getting on my nerves.
