Chapter 513
As I wailed, Carson’s phone rang. It was a phone call from his company’s secretary, who said that the leader of the Bureau of Taxation had come to the company and asked him to hurry up with the hack.
This was a big one. Carson didn’t dare stay and left in a hurry. Before leaving, he suggested that his sister come with me.
I quickly declined and said I would call my family’s maid, Mrs. Fant, to accompany me. He didn’t insist and left in a hurry.
As soon as Carson left, Eric entered.
Eric’s face was very haggard and his eyes had panda circles under them. By the looks of it, he must not have had a good rest last night.
I originally thought it was Dylan who had found a way to get rid of Carson. After seeing Eric come in, I knew immediately it was him.
Eric walked over to the headboard and reached out to take my hand. ‘Sorry!’
I didn’t speak. I tilted my head and ignored him. He lowered his head and kissed me on the cheek. “It’s all my fault, Lily. Seeing you like this, my heart is so uncomfortable. I feel pain. Don’t ignore me and say something to me, okay?
‘Why are you in pain? I’m the one in pain, okay? I couldn’t help but retort.
‘My heart hurts. Tap on it and see. It’s almost broken. He took my hand and placed it on his chest.
‘You’re really tough. I don’t want to hear such hypocritical words.’
‘What I said is the truth. How is it fake?’
‘Anyway, I blame you for that. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have driven so fast. Nothing would have happened and my parents wouldn’t have been worried.
‘It’s all my fault. It’s all my fault. I was wrong, okay?
‘If you’re wrong, get out of here. Don’t appear in front of me.’
‘No! It wasn’t easy for me to find a chance to be alone with you. You can’t kick me out! Don’t you know that when I saw Carson holding your hand last night, I almost couldn’t help but spank him?
‘If it weren’t for you, would I have suffered this?’ I got irritated when I thought about Carson.
‘Don’t worry, I’ll think of a way to stop him bothering you,’ Eric promised.
‘Eric, don’t you think we are very strange?’
‘How is it weird?’
‘The situation we’re both hiding in here to plot against Carson is so immoral. That’s adultery, isn’t it?
‘Absurd! What are you thinking in your mind?’ His face suddenly turned ugly. ‘Lilian, we are not adulterers. It’s Carson. If he hadn’t pulled pranks, we wouldn’t be like this. We should have been together a long time ago.
What does that mean?
