David Redington’s embrace carried a slight chill of winter.
However, unexpectedly, it didn’t make one feel cold, but rather, had strands of warmth.
It is said that excellent actors can affect their counterparts.
Lily Gray had never acted before.
But looking at David’s deep blue eyes, under the silver hair, the faint smile on the handsome young man’s face almost made her believe for a moment that she was the little Ruth in the movie.
David held her in his arms, not moving for a long time.
Lily, held in his embrace, didn’t dare to move even if she felt the position was becoming a bit stiff.
It took quite a while before David suddenly released her from his embrace.
“Thank you.” His deep blue eyes looked at her, the smile warm and touching.
Lily, caught off guard, looked up; she was unwittingly captivated by David’s blue eyes that remained serene like still water.
Such warmth that touched the heart, without any other distractions, was simply the most sincere gratitude expressed towards her.
“It’s alright.” Lily thought he was still in character and naturally responded, “Ruth also hopes that you can be happy.”
But David responded with a shake of his head, a slight smile: “No, it’s not Ruth.”
“I want to thank you… I’ve come out of it… Thank you, Lily.”

As David emerged from the shadows, Lily was happy for him too.
Seeing that it was about time, Lily took her leave first.
David personally escorted her to the door. After she had left, Blake, his personal assistant, came over.
“Aaron, are you… really fine?” Blake, had never seen David look so calm as he was now.
“Yes.” David nodded faintly, “It seems like not only did I step out of character… this time, I actually stepped completely out of it.”
“In these years, it seems like 1 was always locked in a dark room. Fortunately, I met Lily… by accident, she broke open the door for me.”
David’s lips curled up slightly, “Blake, I’m back.”
When Blake heard David’s words, his face first showed surprise, which quickly turned into intense joy.
“Young… Young Master, you… you’re really fine!?” He only thought that Lily had helped David step out of character.
Unexpectedly, she had inadvertently broken through the young master’s defense!!!
“Yes, really fine.”
Fingers with distinct joints swept the silver bangs behind his head, revealing chiseled features.
“After this film is completed, I’ll announce my retirement… Blake, 1 think it’s time for me to go back and take over the family business.”
“Young… Young Master…” Blake was so moved he didn’t know what to say, almost bursting into tears of joy.
David looked at his loyal servant who was crying more miserably than a woman and couldn’t help but smile, “Alright, before that, send someone to look into Lily’s information. I want to know everything about her by tonight.”
Blake wiped his tears and asked, “Young Master, what do you need Miss Gray’s information for?”
“Knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle.” David’s lip corner deepened into a smile, “Investigating her is naturally to pursue her more effectively.”

On the other hand, Lily had no idea that her unintentional comforting behavior had inadvertently attracted the affection of a heartthrob.
At this time, she had already finished lunch and was on her way to the Gray Tower.
Because of Aidan Lucas’s instructions, today was different from the usual.
Not only did she have a driver and a private car at her disposal, but she also had a specially appointed bodyguard accompanying her.
The car pulled up to a smooth stop in front of the Gray Tower.
The bodyguard sitting in the front seat got out and politely opened the back door for Lily.
“Young Lady, be careful.”
These burly men in black trained by the Lucas family looked rugged and intimidating, but they were extremely cautious and meticulous in their actions.
As Lily was about to get out of the car, the burly man in black suddenly stopped her: “Young Lady, please wait a moment!”
