Translator: 549690339
The na Lily Gray flashed on the phone screen for a while before Aidan Lucas answered the call.
Because of the previous topic, his mood was not very good.
His tone was cold and distant, “What’s up?”
Lily Gray on the other end of the phone was taken aback.
She rembered that when she left the house in the morning, Aidan Lucas’s attitude was quite normal. Why did his tone suddenly beco much colder now?
Her voice was soft, with a hint of apology, “I’m sorry, did I disturb you? I thought you were coming back for dinner, so I called to ask…”
“Don’t wait for , I’m eating out.”
“Oh… So that’s how it is.” Lily Gray obviously didn’t expect Aidan Lucas to say this.
She had thought he was busy with work and temporarily held up by sothing. It turned out that he had already eaten out.
So why was she waiting for him at ho like a fool, not even having the courage to let Ellie call and remind him?
She suddenly felt very stupid.
The atmosphere on the phone beca silent all of a sudden.
Hearing Lily Gray’s faint breathing, Aidan Lucas wanted to say sothing but ended up not saying anything.
His mood was gloomy, and he didn’t even want to console Lily Gray, who was pregnant with his child.
“Anything else? If not, I’m hanging up.” He said coldly.
Lily Gray’s hand holding the phone turned pale at the knuckles, “No, then I…”
Before she could finish, a delicate female voice suddenly ca from the other end of the phone.
“Brother Ethan, don’t talk on the phone while eating. It’s so boring for to eat alone!”
Soft, youthful, and a bit coquettish, Lily Gray found the voice very familiar—it sounded like…Joan Wellington!?
Before she could ask any further, there was a busy tone on the phone.
Lily Gray took the phone down and realized that the other party had already hung up on her.
Aidan Lucas suddenly stood her up, and it turned out that he had gone on a date with Joan Wellington…
The scene of Joan Wellington holding Aidan Lucas’s arm affectionately, walking out of the office that day, resurfaced in her mind.
Lily Gray felt her breath caught in her chest, as if she had been hit hard in the heart.
“Uh…” Suddenly, a wave of nausea surged in her stomach, and Lily Gray weakly leaned on the armrest and dry heaved.

Ellie had been busy outside for a while, and seeing that it was almost eight o’clock and Aidan Lucas still hadn’t co back, she couldn’t help it any longer. She asked the kitchen to cook so porridge and went to ask Lily Gray to get up and eat sothing.
But when she entered the bedroom, she saw Lily Gray lying on the recliner, seemingly unconscious.
“Young Lady…Young Lady, what’s wrong with you…Young Lady, don’t scare !!!”
After so commotion, they finally settled Lily Gray back into the bed in a hurry.
Ellie first called the family doctor and then tried calling Aidan Lucas.
However, it was unknown what happened at the young master’s end—the phone was off, and Samuel McKinley couldn’t be reached either.
After nurous failed calls, Ellie couldn’t wait any longer and called Madam directly.
“What, Lily fainted?!”
Emily Taylor almost dropped her phone upon hearing Ellie’s words, “You…you watch her carefully, I’ll be right there.”
When she rushed to Blue Bay Estates, the family doctor was just examining Lily Gray.
Emily Taylor didn’t dare to disturb the doctor so she pulled Ellie aside and asked, “Ellie, where’s Ethan? His wife fainted, how can he not be at ho?!”
