Raising My Wife novel Chapter 14

Thinking of James, Lily's heart sank. 'Did he say that she should go to bed early last night because her teacher is coming and she needs to take her class?' She guessed. Ah, it seemed that her nightmare was about to start.

Her face suddenly changed.

Luke had been paying attention to Lily. As he saw the change in Lily's face, he had guessed what was going on. Although Luke felt funny, he still tried to comfort Lily, "don't worry. I'm easy to handle."

"What?" Lily failed to hear what Luke said.

"I mean, don't be nervous." Luke said patiently.

Lily lowered her head and clenched her fingers tightly, "my foundation is not very good."

"Since Mr. James asked me to tutor Miss Lillias, he naturally trusts me, so you should trust me, shouldn't you?" Luke was a good man. He didn't say anything about Lily at all. He only asked Lily to trust him. "Maybe I can share with you some interesting things about me when I was a student, so that you won't be so unfamiliar with me."

It turned out that Luke found out that Lily was strange to him. Even though he was so gentle. Maybe it was because of her past experience.

"Okay." Lily knew that she would change herself after she came here. She should try to accept the teacher.

"Then let me tell you something fun about my studying abroad, Miss Lillias." Luke began to tell her his experience in England.

Lara, who was in the kitchen, stole a glance at the two people in the living room.

Luke said, and occasionally added some actions to make Lily chuckle. Luke was 25 years old this year, but Lily was only 18 years old. It seemed that there was no age gap between them. They were more like schoolmates than students.

"One more thing, my roommate got up late in the morning. I was having breakfast, he hurried out before I could say hello, and then I made breakfast for him. When I just finished cooking, he came back and asked me why. I told him that he went out before I could say happy weekend to him in the morning." Luke said and shrugged, with a helpless expression on his face.

The relaxed environment created by Luke made Lily feel no longer as strange as before.

They got along very well, and there was laughter from time to time in the living room.

"Let's eat." Lara cut in.

The family of four sat at the table to welcome Luke.

As expected, the dishes on the table were not so rich, but they were also varied in style. It was not difficult to tell how much Lara loved Luke from the way she cooked.

During the meal, Lara kept putting food in Luke's plate. Seeing that, Lily standing by the side sighed with emotion. She remembered her mother, who had passed away.

Bill looked at Luke, the son of a gentle man in the past, had grown up now. After staying abroad for several years, he became gentler and gentler. Unlike Lara, Bill had high expectations of his only child. He had been taught to be a dignified man and to be grateful. Bill hoped Luke could make great achievements after he came back. As things stood, Luke lived up to his expectations.

Luke, who had been silent since he went upstairs, fixed his eyes on his father before he returned to Lily.

Lily came to the bookshelf and started reading one by one. When she found there were many books she had never heard of, she counted the book names carefully.

Standing there and looking at Lily, Luke thought that this girl was really special. Luke thought that Lily's experience would lead her to look at the desk first, or to feel something else, but to his surprise, she went to the bookshelf first. But he didn't interrupt Lily due to his good education.

After going through all the books, Lily suddenly realized that she was not the only one in the room.

"Well... These books are very interesting. " Lily explains to Luke what she just did.

Luke looked at the bookshelf. Interesting? Most of them are textbooks.

"Well... Please take a seat. " Lily pointed at the chair at the desk and walked to sit. Luke also sat down opposite Lily. Lily and Luke sat opposite to each other, so that there was less embarrassment between them.

Lily was satisfied with the way they sat. She remembered that in James' study, she and he sat side by side, but it was not too embarrassing, as if they were used to each other.

'How wonderful it is to get along with people!' sighed Lily in her mind.

"So, are we going to tutor Miss Lillias?" Luke said slowly, with a faint smile on his face, as he usually did.
