Chapter 237 - 240: You Need Exercise
She was actually starving too, the bowl of noodles she thought she wouldn’t be able to finish were quickly devoured.
“All, I’m so full…” She laid down her cutlery, wiping her mouth contentedly.
Her belly was full, but the thought of her meals being made with ingredients originally bought for David Redington made her a bit uneasy.
Before going upstairs earlier, she snuck a text to David, telling him she wouldn’t be going over today.
She hoped he wouldn’t be angry when he received it.
Just as she was pondering, Aidan Lucas put down his cutlery from across the table.
Lily Gray heard his faint voice saying, “Go up after you’re done eating, you need to exercise.”
“Exercise… after dinner?” Lily Gray’s hand trembled a bit.
She wanted to ask if the “exercise” Aidan Lucas was talking about was the kind she thought it was.
But before she could voice it out, Aidan Lucas had risen from his seat and went to her side.
He bent down and picked her up.
Their maid, Ellie, was still in the restaurant along with two other servants… Lily Gray’s face which had just returned to normal immediately flushed again.
“Put me down… I can walk on my own.” She whispered to Aidan Lucas.
He lowered his gaze to her anxious face, a hint of a cold smile on his lips, “Are you planning on going barefoot?”
Upon mentioning that, Lily Gray remembered.
She was carried down by him earlier, without her shoes on.
Even in winter, with the heating on in the house, walking barefoot on the floor was far from pleasant.
Lily Gray blushed, opened her mouth, but in the end, thought better of arguing and chose to remain silent.
Seeing her being obedient.
The stern look on Aidan Lucas’s face softened a bit.
With the woman in his arms, he headed upstairs.
Upon seeing them, Ellie knew her young master was up to no good.
Oh dear, the Young Lady was still a few days away from being three months pregnant, couldn’t the young master hold back?!
Ellie was worried but didn’t dare stop Aidan Lucas.
She could only watch helplessly as he carried Lily Gray upstairs.

Lily Gray was carried back to the bedroom by Aidan Lucas.
This time, it was better than what she imagined.
At least, he didn’t push her against the door and kiss her passionately the moment they entered.
Aidan Lucas merely placed her on the bed and stood beside it.
Just as Lily Gray sighed in relief, she froze in shock.
Aidan Lucas began to… undress!
He first took off his outermost tailored jacket, and unbuttoned his shirt one by one.
The white shirt revealing the solid muscles of his chest and abs underneath.
Then, he unhooked his belt.
As the belt is pulled out, the tailored pants fall, revealing his long, powerful legs.
Seeing this, Lily Gray couldn’t look on any further.
Her whole face, including her ears and neck, were all flushing red.
Even the tips of the fingers covering her face were turning red.
Lily Gray was afraid that if she looked further, she would see some place she should not be seeing.
Even though… that spot… ahem, she had had intimate encounters with it before.
But the Aidan Lucas back then was entirely different from the man standing before her, giving off an intimidating aura.
She could accept helping him in the heat of the moment…
But the current situation only filled her with dread.
Just as she was covering her eyes, a sudden noise came from nearby.
Her heart jolted, not knowing what Aidan Lucas was up to.
She just hoped that he wouldn’t go as far as to take off the last piece..
