Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson) novel Chapter 262

Chapter 262
“My friend gave it to me.” Dylan grinned cheekily. “By the way, I didn’t ask if you have time to join me.”
“Of course, she’s free. How can she be busy?” Dad answered on my behalf.
“Father, how could you decide for me?!”
“Stop acting. You don’t think I don’t know how much you like these pieces?” Dad gave me a playful look.
That made everyone laugh and I laughed along with it. I was a frequent guest at the theater before I married Carson, but not after I married him. The thought of that made me a little upset.
After dinner, my mother asked me to go upstairs to change my clothes. However, she only brought my laptop when I arrived this morning and didn’t bring anything to change for me. Fortunately, there were still clothes in my bedroom closet. There was no change in my body after five years, so I managed to get into a white dress that I found in my closet.
After I changed and went downstairs, Mrs. Fant couldn’t help but praise me. “Lily really doesn’t look any different than she did five years ago. Those who don’t know her might actually think she’s only twenty years old!”
“Come on, Mrs. Fant. Do I really look that young?” I rolled my eyes at her.
“Dylan, what do you think? Lily hasn’t changed at all, has she?” Mrs. Fant turned and asked as Dylan smiled gently. “Actually, you don’t look any different than you did five years ago.”
Dylan and I left the house after saying goodbye to my parents. As Dylan drove, he lamented, “I remember it’s been five years since we last went out. Thinking about it now, it was like it happened yesterday.”
“I know, right? I used to cling to you a lot…” The thought of us becoming strangers when we used to be so close made me shut up.
I turned on the car radio to cover my embarrassment, but a familiar song started to play; was ‘Crazy for you!
It was a song I loved listening to whenever I hung out with Dylan in the past. I didn’t expect him not to change this song. although he had already changed cars. I clumsily tried to change the song, but ‘Missing Each Other Amid Wind & Rain’ started playing this time. I wonder, would the next song playing be ‘Can’t Say Goodbye To You’? Suddenly I didn’t have the heart to prove my hunch and turned off the radio.
Dylan smiled at me. “Why did you turn it off?”
“I don’t want to listen anymore.”
“You are still so demanding. Just like you were in the past.” I don’t know why, but I feel like the way Dylan looked at me felt very ambiguous. Dylan was always nice to me. I used to think it was because we grew up together and our families were close. However, I couldn’t say for sure after what Isabella told me.
Isabella said that the arranged marriage between the Newman family and the Hawkins wasn’t just an adult decision, as Dylan wasn’t opposed to it either. However, if Dylan really liked me and wanted to be with me back then, wouldn’t we be in a tough spot now?
But then again, I didn’t think Isabella was entirely right. I remembered that Dylan liked tall women with big asses, and I was never like that. Even Dylan himself admitted that he liked sexy women.
The thought of that made me ask out of nowhere, “Why aren’t you married yet? What do you think of Jessica? Where is your girlfriend?”
