Chapter 32: Chapter 35: The pitiful little woman made him feel heartache.
Translator: 549690339
Who would have thought that, in the morning when she rejected him, she was still Miss Gray of the Gray family. Because she had no desires or demands, she didn’t need to bow to him.
But a few hours later, she was back in front of him.
Seeing her smile worse than if she’d been crying, Ethan Wilson’s handso brows couldn’t help but furrow slightly.
“Co here,” he said, hooking his slender fingers towards her.
Lily Gray hesitated for a mont, then submitted, walking towards him with lowered eyes.
Seeing Lily Gray’s overly submissive deanor, Ethan Wilson’s brows furrowed even more.
Lily Gray’s face was marked with obvious tear stains and an old pair of black-frad glasses. She looked unhappy and was no longer like the clever and charming woman who used to quibble and negotiate with him with every smile and frown.
He suddenly felt so regret.
Breaking her wings to force her into his self-fashioned cage might get him what he wanted, but it seed to destroy the spirit in her eyes at the sa ti.
Her once clear almond eyes were noticeably red and swollen, which even her glasses couldn’t hide.
Ethan Wilson sighed inwardly. After all, she was still a little girl. Such setbacks may not matter to him, but for the pampered girl, they were earth-shattering.
Gently pulling the small woman in front of him into his arms, he let her sit on his lap.
“Have you been wronged?” His voice was lazy and sexy, a clear contrast to the coldness he exhibited earlier and filled with warmth.
Lily Gray’s rigid body trembled, and then, he saw two “pearls” fall from her eyes.
Instantly, he softened.
He had indeed been too harsh. How could the delicate little woman endure such tornt?
He had long looked into Lily Gray’s background and knew that Mrs. Gray had always protected her well. If not for this, Lily wouldn’t have been so naive as to marry Austin Lucas, a man who couldn’t be brought out in public.
“Alright, stop crying…”
Pressing her head onto his shoulder, Ethan Wilson surprisingly cald and comforted her.
“I know you’ve been wronged, don’t worry. Whoever bullies you in the future, we’ll fight back. Be well-behaved and listen, and be my, Ethan Wilson’s, woman. I promise, no one in this world will dare to bully you again.”
Mr. Lucas rarely had the chance to coax girls like this, so he didn’t understand that when girls cry, the more you coax them, the easier it is for them to cry.
Lily Gray was like that. She had already told herself to be strong and to bravely face everything.
From the mont she walked into this office, she had prepared herself for the ridicule and abuse from Ethan Wilson.
But who knew that the expected ridicule and abuse didn’t happen.
That domineering and arrogant man, not only did he not insult her, but he also held her warmly when she was helpless.
Lily Gray, who had just experienced betrayal by her own family, knew better than to soften, but when this man held her and coaxed her tenderly, she couldn’t stop the tears no matter what.
“Ooh…ooh…”
She shouldn’t cry, she shouldn’t be weak.
But, just this once, forgive her.
Let her cry out all her grievances and thoroughly release her sorrow.
She promised that after this, she would be a strong Lily Gray.
What was originally soft sobbing, under the man’s comfort, turned into outright wailing.
She lay on his shoulder as if to vent all her grievances.
“Alright, there, Don’t cry anymore….”
