Chapter 459: 462: Aidan Lucas Actually, Let Her Down
Sebastian Lucas VII was anxious and wanted to help her, but Lily pushed him away.
“Don’t help…me. I just want to be alone for a while, don’t follow me…”
She needed to calm down.
She needed to calm down…
Lily Gray almost doubted that what just happened was all an illusion.
She must have heard it wrong. She must have.
How could Aidan Lucas not want her anymore…
“Young Lady, Mr. Lucas told me to follow you, you can’t…”
“I said, I want to be alone!” Lily Gray suddenly raised her voice.
Sebastian had never seen Lily Gray like this.
The Young Lady was always delicate and gentle, with a friendly demeanor.
She never even said a harsh word to the ordinary servants.
It seemed that Lily Gray realized her unusual behavior. She took a deep breath, “I’m sorry, I… I’m not feeling well. Let me be alone for a while. Don’t worry, I won’t go anywhere. I’ll just wander around downstairs.”
Sebastian thought that Lily had been locked up for too long and felt oppressed.
Although he didn’t agree, her identity was, after all, the lady of the house.
He had no right to restrict her freedom.
“Alright, there are our people downstairs. If you really feel bored, you can take a walk in the corridor.” Sebastian thought that she was dissatisfied with him following her too closely for too long.
“I understand.” Lily nodded, holding back her tears, and left with her head down.
Watching her hasty departure, Sebastian hesitated for just a second before breaking his promise and following her.

In fact, Lily didn’t plan to go to the corridor to calm down.
Now, she just wanted to find an empty lounge and cry her heart out.
Aidan Lucas’s words had given her too big a shock.
Her mind was in chaos, and she couldn’t think at all.
Was it real or just a lie…
What should she do…
Thinking of what Aidan Lucas said earlier.
Tricking her into signing…
Divorce…
He just trampled on her trust like that?
Aidan Lucas, how could he be so cruel!
He just crushed her heart into powder after she had given him all her sincerity.
Lily struggled to walk downstairs.
As soon as she reached the corner of the corridor, she ran into a familiar figure.
“Lily Gray… So it’s you here.” Joan Wellington had been looking for her for a long time and thought Lily had gone back.
Unexpectedly, she bumped into her at the corner of the corridor outside the banquet hall.
“Joan Wellington…” Lily Gray recognized the person in front of her and instinctively repressed the tears in her eyes.
Joan’s heart was not much calmer than Lily’s at this moment.
As a result, she didn’t even notice Lily’s slightly red eyes, let alone her abnormality.
“Lily Gray, I have something to talk to you about. Can you come with me?” Joan suddenly grabbed Lily’s arm.
From the very beginning of their acquaintance, Lily had never seen Joan be so close to her.
But at this moment, Lily simply had no energy or thoughts to speculate on what Joan might want to do.
Truth be told, if Joan hadn’t held her arm at this moment,
She would always have the illusion that she would collapse in the next second from mental exhaustion.
Lily Gray nodded numbly, allowing Joan Wellington to manipulate her.
Seeing this, Joan didn’t think much about it. Holding Lily’s hand, she walked towards the elevator.
It wasn’t until the two entered the elevator that Sebastian appeared from behind in the corridor, revealing half his figure.
Miss Wellington…
When did she become so close to the Young Lady?
