Chapter 553 I Am Strong Enough
Chapter 553 I Am Strong Enough
Lily turns to look at the tourist and asks, Could you be wrong
The tourist thinks for a moment and then says confidently, No, I couldn't. We boarded the ship together.
She attracted my attention because she was crying while walking.
She was petite and pretty. She almost boarded the ship, but she turned around and walked down.
When someone screamed, I found that she jumped into the sea...
What the tourist said is like a knife stabbing into Lily's heart.
Her face is deathly pale, her body sways, and she almost falls.
Louis supports her and finds that her hands are cold, so he asks the person in charge to bring him a
blanket. I've asked someone to come. Don't worry.
It's my fault... Lily chokes with sobs. If I were smarter and talked with Leigh, they wouldn't
misunderstand each other...
The person in charge brings the blanket, and Louis wraps it around Lily.
He takes her in his arms and comforts her gently, Lily, it's none of your business. Even if you told Leigh
about that, someone would still make trouble.
Lily's shoulders move as she sobs. Why didn't Little Fairy board the ship Why did she jump into the sea
She wouldn't commit suicide...
Louis doesn't know what Jessie was thinking, but she wanted to escape. If she suddenly came to her
senses, she should go to the hospital to find Leigh or the police station. She wouldn't commit suicide.
Louis looks around with a sharp gaze.
They are now in the port. Other than the ticket office, there are almost no cameras in other places.
Normally, the staff is watching.
There weren't many people in the early morning, so no one knew why Jessie jumped into the sea.
Lily, listen to me. Louis cups Lily's face in his hands and stares at her. The rescue team hasn't found
Jessie's corpse yet, so she may be fine.
It takes time to find her. You have to wait. If something happens to you, you won't see her.
Lily is in tears. Louis' words give her some hope. Will she be alright I, I won't cry... I won't cry.
She wipes her tears and tries her best to cheer up. I'll wait for her here.
You're tired. You need a rest. Louis can tell that she's exhausted.
If there's no good news, she'll be devastated.
Louis holds her by the waist and disembarks while comforting her, I'll send you back to rest. I'll let you
know as soon as there's any news.
Lily struggles and wants to say something.
Louis stops her. I know you're worried about Jessie, but you're not alone. Leigh's being rescued in the
hospital, but I came here to help you. Lily, you have to think for me.
Lily raises her head. From this angle, she can see Louis' tired look.
She says nothing.
Louis is worried about Daniel's thing. What's more, Leigh is being rescued in the hospital. He has to
deal with more things, so he may feel more stressed.
Lily puts her arms around his neck and he carries her off the ship.
She looks at her belly, purses her pale lips, and asks, Am I heavy
Yes, you're heavier than last time. Louis swallows and continues in a deep voice, You're pregnant, so
you should be getting heavier and heavier. I'll be worried if your weight doesn't change.
I'm afraid you can't lift me as I'm too heavy. I may fall.
Don't worry, Louis says firmly. I'm strong enough.
When I'm eight months pregnant, you won't say that.
I'll take exercise hard so that I can hold you when you don't want to walk.
Lily is amused.
But then she feels that she shouldn't have said this to Louis.
She lies in his arms and doesn't say anything else.
Louis puts her in the back seat, takes a blanket from the trunk, and wraps it around her.
Have some sleep. I'll wake you up when we get home.
Okay.
Too many things have happened in the past few hours. Lily is so tired. The temperature in the car feels
nice, so she quickly falls asleep on the pillow.
Louis occasionally glances at her from the rearview mirror and sees that she falls asleep.
He turns the car around at the traffic light.
It's almost dawn now. If he sends Lily back, he'll disturb Chandler, so he decides to take Lily back to his
place.
After returning to his residence, Louis carries Lily upstairs to the bedroom.
Just as he puts Lily on the bed, Lily opens her eyes and looks at him. She's still dazed. She hasn't fully
awakened yet.
Louis says softly, Go back to sleep. I'll wake you up if there's news.
Lily is sleepy, but she grabs his clothes and mumbles, She didn't do anything wrong. Don't hurt her.
...
Louis smiles helplessly and puts her hand under the quilt. I know, I'll stay here with you.
He goes to the window and draws the curtains.
The bedroom becomes dark and suitable for sleeping. Lily struggles for a while before she falls asleep.
Seeing that she frowns when she's sleeping, Louis helps her to calm down. Something like this has
happened, so she must be anxious. He kisses her cheek.
Then he gently walks out and closes the door.
Louis looks out of the window and sees that the sun has risen. He realizes that it is already past six in
the morning.
What happened in the early hours of the morning is like a dream.
Louis goes downstairs while calling Chloe to ask about the situation.
Chloe, how's it going
Justin brought someone to operate on Leigh. He's fine now. After a pause, Chloe continues, But Justin
said that Leigh is seriously injured and needs to be properly treated.
Hearing this, Louis can finally rest his heart. He says, Take good care of Leigh.
Is Lily alright
I'm with her. She'll be fine, Louis answers. Just help Justin. Has Leigh's assistant gone back
No, he's still in the hospital.
Louis hangs up the phone and calls the assistant.
...
Lily feels hot and wakes up in a daze. She finds that the curtains are drawn.
The bedroom is dim, so she doesn't know what time it is.
Lily ruffles her hair and hurriedly leaves the bedroom. Then she realizes that she's at Louis' place.
After she goes downstairs, she sees Louis sitting on the sofa and talking to someone on the phone.
Hearing the noise, Louis raises his head and sees Lily coming down from upstairs with bare feet. He
frowns and says something to the person on the other side of the phone before getting up and walking
towards Lily.
Don't you have slippers Why aren't you wearing them
Lily looks down and sees that she doesn't wear slippers. The bedroom is too dim. I didn't see the
slippers.
She anxiously asks, Have you find Little Fairy
Not yet. Louis brings slippers over, squats down, and puts them on her feet. The people I sent and the
rescue team have searched the area thoroughly, but they haven't found her.
