Chapter 521: Chapter 524: Lily Gray, Finally Understands (2)
“Hannah?”
Before Lily Gray could reply, Skye Brown, who was hugging her, had already widened her eyes in shock, “You told Lily about Hannah Ford?!”
“Skye, you’ve known about Hannah Ford too?”
“Lily, don’t be angry…”
Skye said with an apology, “I only found out the night before the banquet. I saw you were so happy, so I didn’t dare to tell you. Besides, I think what Dylan Wellington said is right… That woman is just the past, and she doesn’t represent the present, let alone the future.”
Skye approached and took Lily Gray’s hand, “Lily, I’m sorry. I didn’t intentionally hide it from you. Won’t you be mad at me?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t get angry over this.”
She held Skye’s hand and reached out with the other to hold Joan Wellington’s.
“I called you both here today to talk about my feigned memory loss because I wanted to have an open discussion about Hannah Ford.”
“Actually, Hannah…”
Joan instinctively wanted to explain something about Hannah Ford.
But when the words were on the tip of her tongue, some things in her mind made it difficult for her to continue.
Lily Gray sat down with the two, looking at Joan gently, “Joan, I know you have a good impression of Hannah Ford. You guys knew each other first after all. Don’t worry, I won’t force you to speak ill of her, nor will I let you do anything that might harm her.”
After the kidnapping incident last time, she had a completely different impression of Joan.
She believed that Joan had a kind and righteous heart.
So this time, she didn’t avoid her, but instead asked her to come and help.
“In fact, I asked you both to come because I have a question in my mind. I want you to help me analyze it.”
Lily Gray told them about her meeting with Aidan Lucas yesterday and how things didn’t end well.
“I asked Diana for help and pretended to have amnesia because I wanted to protect the baby in my belly. That night at the banquet, I accidentally overheard Aidan Lucas talking to Mr. Fenton about drafting a new divorce agreement for me to sign.”
“At that time, I was heartbroken. Under such circumstances, I met Joan and learned about Hannah Ford’s existence through her. The combined shock of the two was too much for me. At that moment, I felt like the whole world had betrayed me.”
Lily Gray’s voice grew more trembled as she spoke.
She couldn’t face that version of herself.
Filled with negative energy and on the verge of an emotional breakdown.
That kind of person was not lovely at all, and she couldn’t be a positive role model for her baby.
If she had really left at that time.
She would have spent her life in despair and self-blame, ultimately affecting the growth of her baby.
Thinking of this, she continued, “After being rescued, I deliberately feigned memory loss. Not just because I didn’t want to face him anymore, but also because I really had the idea of getting a divorce.”
“But… after I left him yesterday, I couldn’t help but think about some questions that I had never paid attention to before. Until last night, I finally figured it out.”
“Skye, Joan, I want to ask you… From your perspective as observers, is Aidan Lucas sincere to me, or is he just pretending?”
“This…”
Skye thought for a moment before speaking up first.
“I don’t know Aidan Lucas very well, and I haven’t had much contact with him. However, as a director, I’ve worked with many actors.”
