Chapter 1154: Chapter 1157: Martha Barnes’s Identity (2) Chapter 1154: Chapter 1157: Martha Barnes’s Identity (2) That’s it.
Lily almost forgot, just a mont ago, those soldiers had called Erina, Brigadier General Coldwell.
They referred to her as Brigadier General Coldwell, not Brigadier General Barnes.
“You and Cory, are you relatives?” Lily asked cautiously.
She suddenly felt scared, sowhat afraid to continue this topic.
Clearly, Cory and Erina seed to love each other so much.
But if they were blood-related, then this relationship would beco a taboo.
Thinking of that girl crouched in the corner crying, Lily suddenly understood where her profound sadness stemd from.
Just when Lily unconsciously fabricated a lengthy forbidden love story about siblings in her mind.
She heard Erina’s voice tinged with sobs, “No, we’re not blood relatives. I’m his sister, we don’t share the sa father or mother. My mother is now Mrs. Coldwell.”
“Mrs. Coldwell… Charles Coldwell’s wife?” Lily asked.
Erina pursed her lips and nodded, “Yes, I’m Charles Coldwell’s stepdaughter. Martha Barnes is my original na, but in the civil registry, my na is Erina Coldwell.”
“You…” Lily was stunned for a mont, but quickly regained composure, “Just siblings in the civil registry, even if Coldwell’s family doesn’t allow you to be together, shouldn’t it be fine? Given Cory’s personality, he shouldn’t fear Marshal Coldwell, right?”
In a family like the Coldwells, if stepsiblings really got together, it might be seen as disgraceful.
But Cory isn’t just Charles Coldwell’s son, he is also Duke Borkin’s grandson.
He so assertive, so in love with Erina, even if the Coldwell family opposed, it couldn’t sway his determination towards Erina.
Clearly, the person hesitating here wasn’t Cory, but Erina.
Erina bit her lower lip and lowered her head.
She seed to be holding back sothing.
“Erina.” Lily took her hand, “Since Cory likes you and you like him too, why not give it a try? I think you guys…”
“It’s not possible.” A very faint voice ca from Erina’s mouth.
“What?” Lily didn’t hear clearly.
“Cory and I, we can never be…”
“But Erina, you should…”
“Lily, thank you for today,” Erina suddenly looked up, using the back of her hand to wipe away tears, “Really, thank you for spending the day with , letting forget so many troubles.”
“Erina…” Lily looked at the soft yet stubborn Martha Barnes, she was clearly so frail and delicate, but those deep bright eyes seed to hold a great determination.
“Alright, I still have to go back to the military departnt to deal with what happened just now. After the interrogation, I will contact you again. This al is on , I have to go first.”
Erina didn’t wait for Lily to speak, she directly called the waiter to pay, then left.
Watching Erina’s departing figure, Lily felt a poignant emotion.
Clearly two people in love, yet they simply couldn’t be together.
Why must it be like this?
Watching them reminded her of her past self. Lily silently decided, she and Aidan Lucas must not end up like that.
No matter if it’s the first personality or the second, they must cherish every minute, every second.

anwhile, after laying low for several days in A City, Benjamin Lucas IX finally brought the latest information on Lily Gray’s impostor.
“Mr. Lucas, this woman’s profession is an actor. You’ll never guess which company she is now with.”
Benjamin Lucas handed over a docunt, and Aidan Lucas received it with a grave face.
His gaze briefly swept over the docunt. The man, already expressionless, looked even more forbidding.
“Wellington family?”
