Chapter 345
“I read in a book that a man will selectively ignore everything you do when he doesn’t care about you, because whatever he does
is meaningless to him and naturally won’t affect his emotions. On the contrary, when he cares about someone, he behaves very strangely, often criticizing them and inexplicably becoming enraged because he is unable to control his emotions. That’s why you and I see different versions of Eric Walker. I think Eric Walker fell in love with you.”

“You’re talking nonsense again. If I wasn’t married, I might think he had a reason to fall in love with me, but now, I’m a married woman, not yet divorced. Why do you think he would? my?”

“Have a little confidence in yourself. The fact that whatever you are now defeats countless unmarried maidens is reason enough.”
“Fine, stop being so flippant. I’m not in the mood to play these silly jokes on you right now.”
“I am not kidding.
for me, lilian. Look for Eric Walker again. There may still be hope.”

“What hope? I can’t go and tell him I didn’t mean it. I can’t say that I’m not planning to offer him my body in return, nor can I beg him. don’t get me wrong before I begged him to help me crush Carson! He’s definitely going to think I’ve gone crazy!” Disgust flooded me.
“Who knows, there might be a dramatic change in your attitude after hearing this?”
“This is just your assumption which is totally unfounded. I don’t want to humiliate myself again.”

“Okay, since you want to quit, I won’t coerce you. Oh yeah, was there any movement from that bastard Carson Boyer?”
“No, there’s no news from Victoria, and I can’t ask him either, so let’s wait for now. As long as Eric Walker does not interfere, he can definitely finalize this matter.”
“Lily, you’re not working today either, are you?”
“No.”
“If so, let’s go shopping. I’m bored to death staying home alone.”
“No problem. Come at 10:00.”
So I went down to breakfast after getting out of bed and washing up. While serving me breakfast, Mys. Fant muttered to me under his breath, “I saw Carson Boyer at the gate when I got home last night.”
I was momentarily scared. “Are you sure?”
“Yes. He was sitting in the car, wearing a pair of sunglasses. I didn’t recognize it at first, but then I thought the license plate was familiar, so I took another look.”
This is strange. Why was he in front of my house? Don’t tell me he came to watch me? Shouldn’t he be busy right now with the matter of setting Robin up? Why would he think to come and keep an eye on me? Besides, I haven’t done anything to arouse his suspicions recently, well, other than the fact that I’m now working with Eric Walker. Does he suspect me because he’s Eric’s enemy? If so, this b*stard sure knows a lot. It was Eric who drove me home last night, and I didn’t pay much attention to my surroundings at the time. Don’t tell me he was still here? I wonder what he would think if he saw Eric driving me home alone.
Then I remembered Eric’s words to me: ‘You are no match for Carson Boyer. I’ve always denied that, but now that I found out that Carson was watching my house, I suddenly discovered that there was truth to that. Looks like I have to be careful and cautious in the future. Also, I have to find a suitable excuse to explain Eric to him, otherwise I won’t be able to clarify.
matters.
After breakfast I went upstairs and called Carson. “Honey, have you had breakfast yet?” Nothing could be discerned from his
voice.

Chapter 345
“Yes. Husband, how is Eliza now?”
“She is much better.”
“Serious? I am planning to go back and visit today.”
“Everything is fine. You’re going to be tired after working all day, so I’m worried it’s going to be too taxing on your body if you take a trip home.”
It’s understandable that he doesn’t want me to come back, but I didn’t go to work yesterday or the day before. So it was weird for me when I heard him mention the word ‘work’ intentionally. What exactly is he trying to say?
