Chapter 1790: Chapter 1793: His heart was uneasy, he wanted to send her away
“If she wants to crash, let her crash. Have someone turn on the surveillance, so she doesn’t injure herself and then turn around and accuse us.” Lily coolly instructed Sebastian Lucas VII, not worried about Bella Scott at all.
Now, she doesn’t have a shred of sympathy for Bella Scott.
In her younger days, she harmed Sylvia Scott, later found someone to curse Sylvia’s belly, and then gave false testimony to maliciously slander herself for Hannah Ford.
Even though they are related by affinity, even a stranger would not be that vicious.
Sebastian Lucas VII received the orders and was just about to carry them out.
“Wait a minute…” Ellie suddenly spoke up, stopping Sebastian Lucas VII.
“What’s wrong, Ellie?” Lily felt strange, as Ellie usually doesn’t meddle in these matters.
“Young Lady, I know I shouldn’t ask too much. But Mrs. Ford is, after all, Mr. Oliver’s biological mother. Recently, Mr. Oliver has been sending all sorts of fun and good food for the young master and young lady every few days. You have a close relationship with him, if Mrs. Ford really gets killed outside our mansion, I’m afraid…”
Ellie was considering for Lily’s sake, and Oliver Ford has always cared for Lily like a sister.
When Lily was most helpless, it was Oliver Ford who stood by her side.
Ellie has been taking care of Lily long-term and doesn’t want her to have any regrets in the future, so she helps to persuade her.
Ellie’s words did indeed enlighten Lily.
She had never grouped Oliver Ford with Bella Scott, Hannah Ford, or Sophia Ford.
But in fact, they are indeed blood-related mother and son.
“Ellie, you’re right… even if she’s excessive, she’s still my brother’s mother. If she were to die at our doorstep, my brother would be heartbroken…”
She had always said she would have two brothers this lifetime.
One is David Redington, and the other is Oliver Ford.
“Let her come in, I’ll talk to her.”
Ultimately, Lily decided to see Bella Scott, for the sake of Oliver Ford.
Once Ellie left, Aidan Lucas picked Lily up and placed her on his lap, his warm large hand caressing her already prominently swollen belly.
The man’s typically profound and stern almond-shaped eyes now carried a faint layer of worry.
“Darling…” His magnetic and cool voice, like the most mellow of wines, was intoxicating.
“At the last prenatal checkup, Dr. Collins said everything is good. After we see Bella Scott today, I’ll take you back to A City, alright?”
The last tone lightened softly.
If it were the past, it would surely make Lily’s heart flutter.
But now, for no apparent reason, Lily felt uneasy due to Aidan Lucas’s words.
Resting her head on his shoulder, Lily asked softly, “Why the sudden thought of sending me back? Isn’t it good for me to stay in B City with you?”
“I’ll arrange for the best medical team to stay with you, and you can all go live at the Azure Dragon Temple for a while.”
“Husband, tell me the truth, has something happened?” Just now, Lily thought it was just her overthinking, but the man’s sudden arrangements made her uneasy.
“Fool, nothing’s wrong.” Aidan Lucas tousled the woman’s hair, planting a light peck on her lips.
“If nothing’s wrong, then why are you sending me away?” She’s not foolish, she doesn’t believe Aidan Lucas’s words.
Aidan Lucas patiently comforted her, kissing and holding her repeatedly.
But now, Lily wouldn’t yield to such coaxing; without a clear explanation, she remained steadfast.
Poor Mr. Lucas, who could be cold and indifferent to people outside, yet, faced with his beloved wife, couldn’t bear to say a harsh word.
After coaxing for a while and seeing Lily still unwilling to compromise, he sighed deeply and whispered in the woman’s ear.
“Lily, be good and go back to A City. I’m not deceiving you, nothing really happened, it’s just an inexplicable unease in my heart, so I want to send you back.”
