“What kind of transaction do you want to make?”
“Don’t worry, the terms are quite favorable for you, and I won’t be at a loss.”
Lily keenly caught the deep aning hidden in Richard Coldwell’s words.
Their only transaction in the past was one kind.
That was a family alliance through marriage.
“You still want a marriage alliance?”
She had so understanding of Richard Coldwell. He was David Redington’s best friend and a mber of the Borkin family, with close ties to their Redington family.
Over the past many years, the only transaction he wanted to make with her was a family marriage alliance.
“Yes,” Richard Coldwell admitted unabashedly, adding, “But also no.”
Lily was confused, “What exactly are you trying to say?”
“Miss Redington, then let be blunt. The head of the Lucas family is Abbie and Lulu’s biological father, right?”
Lily’s breathing hitched, “Do you intend to use this information to threaten ?”
“No, I have no interest in Miss Redington’s private matters, nor would I use such a thing to threaten a woman. I’m simply guessing that over these years, Abbie and Lulu have been without a father, perhaps because of this Mr. Lucas.”
“Whether it’s the head of the Lucas family or the two children, I suppose, they don’t know of each other’s existence, right?”
Since Richard Coldwell had stated he would not use this matter to threaten her, then this would definitely not beco a lever for blackmail.
But Lily didn’t understand why, if that was the case, Richard Coldwell would still bother to waste his breath discussing the parentage of the children with her.
“Mr. Coldwell, Aidan Lucas indeed doesn’t know about the existence of Abbie and Lulu, and I hope… you can keep it a secret for .”
“As for the transaction you ntioned, you might as well speak directly. If I can do it, I would be glad to cooperate with Mr. Coldwell. If it’s a condition that I cannot accept, then I can only apologize.”
Lily wanted to end the call with Richard Coldwell quickly; she needed to call Aidan Lucas.
The children were with Aidan Lucas, which gave her a temporary sigh of relief, but also made her more anxious.
“Very well, then I’ll get straight to the point,” Richard Coldwell paused in his speech, deciding not to beat around the bush with Lily anymore.
He was always succinct in his words. The only reason he had been talking in circles was that he had not yet made up his mind.
But now, he was ready for the worst-case scenario.
“Miss Redington, the transaction is simple. Accompany to et soone, where your identity will be as the Miss of the Redington family, my fiancée. And I, am willing to play along in this act.”
“Play along in an act?”
Lily understood the first part of his statent; Richard Coldwell wanted her to pretend to be his fiancée to et soone, surely the woman he intended to flush out.
But what she didn’t understand was why he needed to provoke that woman with such a tactic if he had already found her?
However, at the mont, that wasn’t her main concern.
Her main concern was the latter part of his proposal.
“Yes. Otherwise, how will you explain Abbie and Lulu’s identity to Aidan Lucas? Or maybe, it’s just my mistake. Perhaps you’ve already prepared to reveal the truth to him?”
“I… I haven’t yet.”
Richard Coldwell’s words finally made Lily realize what the real issue was.
Richard Coldwell was truly formidable, worthy of being Mr. Coldwell.
Not only did he discern that Aidan Lucas was the children’s father, but he also saw through the very thing she should be worried about.
Indeed.
From the beginning to end, up until now, she had never intended to let Aidan Lucas’s second personality discover the existence of the children.
If the current Aidan Lucas were his first personality, she would certainly be willing to share the joy of them having twins.
But now, the man she faced was his second personality.
