Chapter 320
At one side of the villa.
After watching the news, Lily Gray sat at the edge of her bed with a gloomy expression.
“David…”
Thinking of what David had just said, she felt uneasy.
“No, I must make things clear to him!”
Even if she despises Ethan Wilson now, she is, after all, his legal wife.
Anyway, she is a married woman.
David misunderstands her but continues to pursue her persistently, even appearing on television.
If she doesn’t clarify things to him soon, he may fall deeper into the misunderstanding.
In the end, the injured party would be him.
Recalling David’s previous withdrawal and heartache, Lily Gray didn’t want to hurt such an innocent man.
She took out her cell phone and found David’s number.
Her fingers hovered over the screen, hesitating.
But…
Would it be too impersonal to speak directly?
After all, he had just defended her so much on television.
No, Lily Gray… you can’t drag your feet!
Lily Gray’s bright eyes became determined, and she made up her mind to dial the number.
“Beep… beep…”
On the other end, the sound of the connected call came through.
Just at that moment.
A cold male voice suddenly came from behind her.
“Who are you calling?”
Ethan Wilson, unbeknownst to her, had entered the bedroom.
At the moment, he stood by the door, looking at her with a dark gaze.
“I…” Lily Gray hung up the call in a panic, and a guilty look flashed across her eyes.
She turned to stand up, not knowing why she was compelled to lie: “1 was calling Skye. 1 left suddenly yesterday, and there are still many things on the set that I haven’t explained.”
Ethan Wilson’s cold gaze fell on her face and then moved to her intertwined fingers.
His eyes were dark and unclear, unable to determine what he was thinking.
At last.
His gaze finally left her face when he saw the still-open television and casually asked, “Were you just watching television?”
Lily Gray’s heart skipped a beat, wondering if he had seen it too.
No, it’s impossible.
How could someone as busy as Ethan Wilson possibly pay attention to such boring entertainment news?
“Yeah.” She nodded her head, trying to act nonchalant. “Just looking at anything because I’m bored.”
Hearing her words, a dark glint flashed across the man’s deep black pupils.
The corners of his lips could not help but curve into a self-mocking smile.
He knew it.
He really shouldn’t be hoping for anything.
He wanted to distance himself from her and stop having feelings for her.
But seeing the other man’s confession on television, he couldn’t help but come see her reaction.
Inside his heart, a faint voice was anticipating.
Hoping that Lily Gray would tell him the truth herself.
About the misunderstandings of her visiting David’s home, other men pursuing her, her frustrations, and her uneasiness.
If she is willing to talk about it now, perhaps he would listen to her calmly.
Then tell her,
“It’s okay, Lily. No matter how many people in this world like you,
I believe that the one who loves you the most will always be me, Ethan Wilson.”
Thinking this, the man’s handsome eyebrows furrowed slightly.
However, his spoken words were still nonchalant, “You can keep watching, I have other things to attend to.”
A touch of loneliness swept across Ethan Wilson’s eyes.
It was so fast that Lily Gray almost believed she was seeing things.
Watching his retreating figure, Lily Gray felt an inexplicable urge to call out to him.
Even though they were clearly giving each other the cold shoulder…
Why did the man suddenly come and ask her what she was doing?
Why did it feel like something was off?
Ethan Wilson.
What exactly are you thinking?
Lily Gray’s fingers, gripping her cell phone,
Tightened involuntarily…
