The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He (Lily and John) novel Chapter 341

Chapter 341 She Fell, I Caught Her

“Ich! Who are you trying to scare?!”

Yulia and the others didn’t take Lily’s warning seriously at all. Two of the hired hecklers addente doved her-hard-sending her tumbling off the edge of the stage.

“Lily!”

James hadn’t actually gone to Velkaria. He’d asked Ashton to buy him a ticket for tonight’s performance of “Cherry” instead.

When he arrived, there was a commotion outside the theater, Ashton asked around and checked the online, quickly learning that Elsa had caused a scene here. James didn’t waste a second he shoved pi the security guards at the door and rushed in.

When he saw Lily-soaked through, her left cheek badly swollen-his heart ached so fiercely it felt like is might stop.

Just as he neared the stage, he saw someone shove Lily off its high edge with brutal force. For a split second, it felt like his heart stopped.

He dashed forward in a blur-thankfully, just in time to catch her securely in his arms.

“Lily!”

Adeline was badly shaken by what she’d just seen.

She’d been eating, rehearsing, and performing alongside Lily these past few weeks; she had noticed li running off to the restroom to throw up several times. She suspected Lily was pregnant.

She didn’t even want to imagine what could’ve happened if Lily had been pushed from a platform nearly five feet high.

Lily felt utterly consumed by despair; she hated being slandered, hated being hurt. The baby in her belly was her only family.

She wanted to watch this child grow up safe and happy; she wanted to hear the child call her “Mom.”

She was terrified of losing the baby. And yet, she’d been pushed from the platform. She hadn’t protected her baby!

When Elsa saw Lily pushed from the stage, she nearly lost control of the joy and triumph in her eyes. She had to lower her gaze to keep up the appearance of cold arrogance and feigned fragility.

That filthy, disgusting mistress like Lily didn’t deserve John-or James, for that matter. Once Lily’s reputation was ruined and she’d lost the baby, none of them-John, James, or even Simon-wouhi wana disgraced, castoff woman like her.

Mathilda was practically giddy

James already wanted to divorce Lily; once she lost that bastard child in her belly, he’d never want a fraugh like her again. Then Mathilda could finally marry James.

Chapter 341 She Fell, I Caught Her

“Lily…”

John, Simon, and the three young men of the Ginger family all looked pained when they t

They didn’t want her to get hurt, didn’t want her to suffer but at the same time, they all slemly spread agreed, Lily had done too much wrong. She deserved a little punishment.

Lily didn’t want to show any weakness or helplessness in front of those who had hurt and comment ver

But she didn’t have the strength to watch herself lose the baby either. In that split werned when the was pushed from the stage, her lashes trembled and she shut her eyes tight.

The pain she braced for never came. Instead, she landed in warm, steady arm wars of comforting heat, laced with the familiar scent of greenery, wrapped around her completely

It was like her broken, frozen soul had suddenly come back to life.

She didn’t need to open her eyes. That scent alone, the way it soothed her heart she knew it was james.

She knew she was drenched, knew someone had thrown filth on her. Being so close to him would dirty his clothes; he might resent her for it.

But even though it had been less than a day since they last saw each other, it felt like she’d missed him fos lifetimes. The unfairness, the longing-it all surged up in her chest. She couldn’t help it; she tightened her arms around him, pressing her face against his chest with reckless abandon.

A moment ago, she’d been surrounded, insulted, hurt by so many people-Lily had been termed

But now, with her cheek pressed tightly against his chest and his strong heartbeat pounding in her ear, ail that panic, shame, and confusion melted away in an instant.

All that remained was peace. She knew that with him here, no one would dare hurt her again.

“Lily!”

Jackson had definitely come to see Lily perform. He’d accidentally seen the news about Elsa’s miscarriage and had rushed over, terrified that Lily might be suffering because of it.
