Chapter 1614: Chapter 1617: If you leave today, don’t recognize as your mother-in-law
At the mont the cell phone chid, Emily Taylor’s right hand, resting by her side, tightened imperceptibly.
She suppressed the urge to snatch the cell phone, rely glancing at the screen from the corner of her eye.
The usual place…
She had just seen the first three words when Lily picked up the phone.
“Mom, I have to go out for a bit; you rest at ho, I’ll be back soon,” Lily glanced at the text ssage before turning off the screen.
Austin Lucas must have asked her out, there must be progress on the recording!
Lily, with the issue remaining on her mind, wanted to go out early and listen to the recording, taking her cell phone with her.
“Wait a mont—” Emily suddenly called out to Lily.
Her tone was slightly higher than usual, and it carried a sense of accusation, “Where are you going? Who sent you that text ssage just now!?”
Emily’s slender eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and her gaze at Lily was filled with a chilling doubt.
Finally, Lily realized sothing was amiss with Emily’s attitude.
Even if it was out of concern, it shouldn’t be like this.
Lily’s heart cooled by half in response to Emily’s questioning words.
“I’m going out to take care of sothing; we can talk when I get back,” her tone was cold, no longer wanting to say much to Emily.
She couldn’t reveal the truth to Emily without finding the listening device first.
But more importantly, she knew that even if she did tell her, Emily wouldn’t believe it.
Hearing Lily’s answer, Emily’s suspicions grew deeper.
Disappointnt slowly filled her eyes.
“If you don’t explain yourself, you’re not allowed to leave today. Lily, you are Ethan Wilson’s wife, I can’t just watch you go out behind Ethan’s back…”
“Mom, what do you take for!”
Lily’s eyes darkened, and she cut off Emily’s words with a cold face.
She didn’t want to guess at Emily’s misunderstanding of her… but after hearing her mother-in-law express such doubts about her character, the dissatisfaction that had been building up inside her finally erupted.
Seeing Lily’s shift in expression, Emily’s voice imdiately softened, “Lily, don’t misunderstand… Mom didn’t an that. Mom is just worried about you, scared that soone is deceiving you. Is the person who sent you the text just now Austin Lucas? Are you going out to et him?”
Emily knew she shouldn’t be asking this, but she couldn’t help it.
Ethan is her son, and she couldn’t just watch Lily cuckold her son!
The three words ‘the usual place’ had been seen by her own eyes; there was definitely sothing off about the text ssage Lily had received.
Considering the anonymous information received a few days ago, Emily was certain that the person looking for Lily was Austin Lucas.
Lily doesn’t have many friends, and Skye Brown isn’t in A City.
Here, the only one who could ask Lily to et at ‘the usual place’ was Austin Lucas.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about; I need to et a friend now,” Lily’s voice conveyed fatigue in the face of Emily’s loud and insistent deanor.
With the issue of the listening device unresolved, she really didn’t want to discuss Austin Lucas with Emily in such a tone.
The recording with Austin Lucas was very important; Lily didn’t want to entangle with Emily anymore and turned to leave.
“You… you stop right there! You are not allowed to leave!”
Lily dared to ignore her, which made Emily very angry, and she shouted at Lily in agitation.
Watching Lily’s unhesitating departure, Emily lost her temper, too.
“Lily, I’m telling you, if you dare to step out of this door today, then don’t consider as your mother-in-law anymore! When you’re blinded by that man, did you ever think of Ethan’s feelings? Don’t forget, Ethan is your husband!!!”
Emily’s words struck at the heart.
Directly branding Lily as a wife who betrays her husband.
Hearing her words, Lily paused in body and mind, but in the end, she left the Lucas family without saying anything.
