Chapter 234: Chapter 237: Aidan Lucas Returns
Translator: 549690339
Lily Gray walked with her head down, her gaze almost always focused on the area just in front of her feet.
She was quite familiar with this path.
Cars occasionally passed by, but they were on the driveway.
She walked on the small path by the side of the road.
Basically, she didn’t need to look up, and she could follow the path all the way to David Redington’s villa.
As she walked, suddenly a horn sounded behind her.
Lily instinctively dodged to the side, even though the main road was wide and the driver seemed to be honking at nothing.
She grumbled inwardly but was too lazy to look back, still walking with her head down.
A few seconds later, the horn sounded again.
This time it wasn’t from behind her, but from the main road beside her.
It was obvious that the honking was directed at her.
Lily finally looked up and followed the sound.
Unwittingly, she found herself gazing into a pair of deep black pupils.
Beautiful and cold features, with calm and deep eyes, which seemed to have regained their icy demeanor since she last saw him.
His gaze was so sharp that it was hard not to look away.
So there Lily Gray stood, dumbfounded and still.
Aidan Lucas sat in the back seat, leaning against the other side.
However, the window on Lily’s side was completely rolled down.
He must have just returned from the airport, with a hint of exhaustion in his brow, but an even more overwhelming sense of coldness.
Aidan sat in the back seat without speaking, just staring at her silently.
In the front passenger seat, Samuel Mckinley cautiously said, “Young Lady, please get in the car.”
At this moment, Samuel was even more nervous than Lily.
Mr. Lucas had originally been staying in the hospital in M Country, and he had thought Mr. Lucas would stay there until Miss Ford regained consciousness and recovered.
However, last night, Mr. Lucas suddenly changed his mind and took a private jet back to Eastonia in the middle of the night.
All the way, his face was so cold that no one dared to approach him.
The man seemed to be shrouded in a layer of coldness.
Samuel accompanied him cautiously all the way, fearing that he might offend his master.
Aidan remained silent, and Lily stood there, her fingertips holding the shopping bag limp.
She looked up at him again, trembling slightly when she met his indifferent gaze.
Seeing Lily not moving, Samuel hurriedly got out of the car and opened the back door for her.
“Young Lady, don’t keep Mr. Lucas waiting.”
Although Aidan hadn’t spoken, Samuel could tell that he wanted Lily to get into the car.
Sure enough, Lily slowly got into the back seat with her bag, and the man who had been silent finally spoke.
“What did you buy?” His cold gaze fell on the plastic bag in her hand.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for a few days, this was the first thing he asked her upon their reunion.
Lily’s fingertips trembled slightly and she felt a bit guilty, “Some ingredients.”
As she spoke, Aidan’s tall body had already leaned over directly.
He reached past her and took the bag she had placed on the other side.
He opened the bag himself and examined its contents with furrowed brows.
After examining the contents, the icy chill in his eyes seemed to lessen slightly.
“Do you like noodles?” His deep voice conveyed no discernible emotion.
Lily’s nerves were on edge, fearing that Aidan would suddenly throw the bag in her face and tell her not to think he didn’t know she bought the ingredients for David Redington.
The dream last night was too realistic.
It was so real that she had dreamt of him returning the very next day.
Lily could only nod gently, giving a timid “Mm-hmm.”
Aidan’s deep gaze fell on her slightly thin cheeks, and he couldn’t help but frown..
