Chapter 325: Waiting for Aidan Lucas to Return to the Room

Translator: 549690339

Because of the strange atmosphere between her and Aidan Lucas.

It wasn’t until dinnertime that Lily Gray came downstairs.

Arriving at the restaurant, she unexpectedly didn’t see Aidan Lucas’s figure. “Ellie, where’s Ethan?” Seeing the hesitant Ellie, Lily asked nonchalantly. Ellie wrung her hands, “Young Lady, the Master is in the study room… It seems there was an urgent matter in the company, so they had food sent in.” “Oh.” Lily didn’t say anything and sat down with a calm expression.

As for whether Aidan Lucas was genuinely busy.

Or just didn’t want to have dinner with her.

She didn’t even bother to think about it.

Seeing the table full of delicious dishes, she couldn’t help but smile.

How great it would be to have all this food to herself.

After dinner, since Aidan Lucas restricted her movements, she could only take a walk by herself in the small garden behind the house.

When she finished her walk, took a bath, dried her hair, and sat on the bed, it suddenly occurred to her.

Aidan Lucas…

Was he going to do that with her tonight?

Even if Aidan Lucas was giving her the cold shoulder, she knew him well. He was full of vitality in that area, and even if they were in a cold war, he wouldn’t compromise easily on that matter.

After all, even during the first three months of her pregnancy when she wasn’t comfortable doing that, he would find all sorts of ways to ask for her help.

Not to mention the intense quarrel they had yesterday when he forced her to… in the car.

Whenever she thought of that scene in the car yesterday, she felt a deep sense of injustice and shame welling up in her heart.

Aidan Lucas, she hated the terrifying and brutal version of him.

And she was afraid that he would… tonight.

Lily held her pillow and vigilantly waited for Aidan Lucas to come.

Even if it was futile, she hoped to have a good talk with him.

But she waited and waited.

After over an hour, it was already 11:00, and Aidan Lucas still didn’t show up.

Lily couldn’t help but frown.

Usually, around ten o’clock, she would rest.

Aidan Lucas hadn’t returned to the bedroom yet. What if she fell asleep like this?

Would he directly… do that when he got back?

Lily was really afraid of that now, holding the pillow, even if her eyelids were heavy and wanted to close, she still forcibly stayed awake.

She couldn’t sleep.

She had to wait for Aidan Lucas to come back!

Just as Lily was sleepy and drowsy, the bedroom door suddenly opened at this time.

Hearing the noise, she sat up quickly.

“Young Lady… I knew you haven’t slept yet.” Surprisingly, it was Ellie who came in.

Ellie was holding a tray in her hand.

“I saw the lights in your room still on from outside, and thought you might be hungry, so 1 brought you a bowl of noodles.”

Lily smelled the noodles and indeed, she was hungry.

She sat down and finished the bowl of noodles in no time.

After eating, she wiped her mouth sheepishly, realizing that her appetite had grown since she got pregnant.

Ellie saw her finish eating, cracked a smile, and quickly cleaned up things, preparing to leave.

“Ellie, wait a minute.” Lily couldn’t help but stop Ellie.

“Um… Is Aidan Lucas still busy in the study room?”

She couldn’t hold it anymore and was considering locking the door so that when Aidan Lucas came back, he would naturally knock and wake her up.

That way, even if he came back in the middle of the night, she would know. And wouldn’t be forced by him unknowingly.

“Um…” Ellie didn’t expect the Young Lady to ask this, her mouth opened and closed, unsure how to answer.

It took her a while to stammer, “Uh… The Master… The Master is already asleep..”
