Chapter 93 The Ones Who Stayed

He instinctively wanted to call her back.

But the moment he dialed her number, he hung up again.

She was getting more and more out of control lately.

Not only was she refusing to admit any wrongdoing, she kept using that fake marriage of hers as leverage. He couldn’t keep letting her off the hook.

She’d gone so far as to fake a marriage certificate just to make him jealous. Did she really have it in her to completely cut ties with him?

This whole bullying scandal had gotten too big for her to handle alone.

She had no family, no friends, no connections…

Once she hit rock bottom, where else could she go but back to him for help?

She would come back to their little home and find him again.

And when that happened–if she sincerely apologized to Elsa and promised never to bring up breaking up again–he’d have all the negative press wiped from the internet and even go register their marriage.

At some point, rain had started pouring outside. Thunder rumbled and lightning lit up the sky.

Being soaked to the bone was miserable. Lily was freezing.

Even with the heat on in the car, she still felt like she was trapped in an ice cave.

She didn’t go back to the Luke family. Instead, she drove to her parents‘ grave.

She truly adored Grace, Nancy, and the others. Even though they’d only lived together for a short while, it felt like they were family who had stood by her side for years.

And the more she cared, the more afraid she became of losing them.

She was terrified of seeing disappointment–or even hatred–in their eyes.

“Mom, Dad… I miss you so much…”

As night fell, Lily clung to their tombstone, tears streaming silently down her face, blending into the falling rain.

Many years ago, on a stormy night like this, she’d been locked in a box by the illegitimate son of the Pei family and left in a strange cemetery. Surrounded by darkness and deafening thunder, she had felt helpless and terrified.

But now, with her parents‘ gravestone right in front of her, she didn’t feel afraid at all.

All she felt was deep, aching longing and attachment.

She could throw herself into their arms and whine and cry, pour out all her hurt without holding anything back.

“Mom, Dad, sometimes I really wish… sixteen years ago, you’d taken me with you. I’ve been so alone all this time… and so tired… I really just want to see you again…”

Lily didn’t like spreading negativity.

Whenever she visited their graves, she always shared the good, never the bad.

But too many terrible things had happened today. She couldn’t hold it in anymore. All those emotions she kept bottled up came crashing down.

“Lily!”

Just as she was drowning in the loneliness of feeling abandoned by the whole world, someone called out her name.

For a moment, she really thought her prayers had been answered–that her parents had come to take her with them.

But when she turned and followed the sound, she realized it wasn’t her parents‘ ghosts.

It was the Luke family.

Henry, Grace, Blanc, Nancy, Ivan–they were all there.

Even James had come.

Lily froze.

She never imagined they would find her here.

-She especially didn’t expect that when Grace and the others looked at her, there wasn’t even a hint of

disappointment or hate in their eyes–only overwhelming concern and worry.

James stood to the side, cold and aloof. His dark eyes were calm and unreadable–there was no warmth. but also no disgust.

“You silly girl, how could you let yourself get soaked like this?”
