Chapter 190 The Reason
Chapter 190 The Reason
It was in the evening when Lily and Colin came back home. Hobson had been waiting for them.
"Lily, finally you're back!" Upon seeing Lily, Juliet dashed forward in an attempt to hug her. But Lily
dodged towards Colin slightly. This startled Juliet, but she didn't suspect her intention.
"Mom and Dad, I'm sorry to have worried you." Lily apologized to Juliet and William sincerely.
When she saw Hobson, the obedient expression on Lily's face immediately disappeared, but she
restrained her emotion in front of her parents.
"Lily, are you okay?" Hobson didn't dare to move forward, but the care in his eyes was sincere.
"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern." In front of her parents, Lily was polite.
William also wanted to comfort Lily, but he slightly moved his lips and did not ask anything. In the
children's eyes, he was cold and solemn that no one could approach. From childhood to adulthood,
they were not close to him, and they did not have much communication with him after growing up.
"You can talk in your room. I'll ask the maid to send some desserts and drinks to your room." Juliet
smiled at Lily and Hobson and pushed them away.
Colin also wanted to leave, but was stopped by Juliet.
"Colin, you and Zoey have to stay here. We have something to discuss." Colin had to stop.
"Kate, come with me." Lily dragged Kate who was sitting on the sofa.
Kate shrank her head. She could feel the resentment in Hobson's eyes when he looked at her. She
always disturb them. How could he not blame it But she couldn't leave Lily alone. Alas, it was also hard
for her to do that
When they went back to room, Lily and Kate sitting on the bed while Hobson on the sofa.
"Go ahead, what else do you want to say?" Lily's tone became harsh immediately. She stared at
Hobson fiercely.
"Lily, you said you wanted a beautiful crown, to be a noble princess, waiting for the prince to pick you
up, didn't you?" Hobson had been accustomed to Lily's indifference. He opened the gift box with a
smile, knowing that he would be rejected if he gave it directly to her.
As Hobson opened the gift, a glittering golden crown emerged. It was simple in shape but looked very
luxurious. Especially, the emerald inserted in the middle of it was glittering in the incandescent light,
clear and eye-catching.
Seeing this, Kate was stunned. Was this gem real? Hobson was the senior schoolmate of Lily. How
could he have so much money to buy this?
Lily just glanced at the crown and refused indifferently, "no, you can take it back."
"Lily, don't refuse me immediately. Keep this gift for yourself. Take it as a gift from a friend." Hobson put
the crown on the table and said, "this is Rosa crown * brought back by my father on the abroad auction.
I hope you can accept it."
"Humph!" Insisted Lily.
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to freeze, Kate quickly turned around and asked Lily, "Michelle,
what's wrong with Carlos? Are you okay? "
Hearing this question, Hobson frowned.
"Hobson is our classmate, and also a member of the magic club. It seems that he wasn't at the birthday
party that day." Lily glared at Hobson, gritting her teeth with hatred. "And at the same time, he's
Hobson's cousin."
"……" 'Hobson, you are such a poor guy...'
No wonder that after knowing the truth, Hobson didn't say anything, just sitting there with a solemn
expression.
"I was going to get some fresh air last night, but I saw someone occupy the balcony..." Lily looked at
Kate who got her point and nodded her head. Lily continued, "that's why I called Hobson and promised
him to go out for fun. We made an appointment with the time and place. When I got up, I found that
everyone was still sleeping, so I left first."
If Hobson hadn't called Carlos last night, he wouldn't do that. Hobson felt very sorry.
"When Aunt Juliet and I arrived at Carrie's home, she was home as usual. He told us her phone was
power off. Carlos must have told Carrie. He want to set a focus on Carrie so that we can't find Lily. "
With his brows furrowed, Hobson said in a grave voice.
'Carrie doesn't look like a bad girl, but he indulges Carlos to do what he want to do, ' thought Kate.
"Lily, I am really sorry." Hobson could only say it again and again.
Lily didn't say anything to Hobson. She just asked Kate, "how is Carlos now?"
"He was sent to the police station. It is said his family went broke, so they stayed at Hobson's home."
Kate replied.
"Lily, I believe that Carlos really didn't do it on purpose. His mother died a long time ago, and his father
was hospitalized. What's more, his company was bought out. I'm sure he just done something wrong
with no purpose." Explained Hobson for Carlos.
Lily didn't want to hear any more of Hobson's explanation. The cave was still haunting in her mind. She
couldn't even imagine the scene that her second elder brother had pointed a gun at Carlos. Would he
shoot him to death if she hadn't stopped him?
Although she hated Carlos and wanted he to die early, her heart sank when she saw Colin holding a
gun. Lily wouldn't stop anyone who wanted to kill Carlos. She would clap her hands and make sure that
the person was dead.
Lily never thought she was a kind woman. She would take revenge on anyone who dared to offend her.
However The man can't be Colin. She didn't want her closest people's hands to be stained with blood.
Such a person was not her brother.
"I won't forgive Carlos. He'd better die in prison. How could he vent his anger on somebody else. Who
does he think he is? It's just an unscrupulous crab. Hum! " Lily sneered.
Kate shook her head helplessly. Once Lily hated a person, it would be very difficult for her hatred to
disappear. Besides, Lily really didn't have any reason to forgive Hobson and Carlos.
"Lily, why are you so stubborn? Is it so difficult to accept other people's kindness? " Hobson's voice
suddenly became cold when he heard that.
"It's funny. Why must I accept other people's kindness? I'm not a trash can." Not afraid of Hobson's
anger, Lily sneered at him even harder.
"Besides, Hobson, Carrie loves you, but I don't have any feelings for you. So what?" Lily continued.
Lily's words rendered Hobson speechless. His chest felt stuffy and painful. She didn't care about his
feelings, so she was able to say so many harsh words to hurt him.
But Lily His heart would ache because of her words.
Lily was just a hedgehog
"I don't like Carrie. Lily, since you can refuse my request so decisively, I can also refuse her like this."
Hobson said indifferently.
There was a slight flicker of complicated expression on Lily's face.
"There's nothing to talk about anymore. Hobson, you can go now." At last, Lily showed the guest out.
"Well, I should go back now. Have a good rest." Hobson tried his best to bear his discontent. He forced
a smile and looked at Lily. He stood up, walked up to her and kissed her on the top of her head. Then
he turned around and left.
Lily was so furious that she threw the pillow on Hobson to his back and shut the door behind her.
'Lily is a spoiled cat. She only recognizes her master. But one day, I will let her know who her master
is...' Hobson thought
As he approached her, Hobson saw the hickey on Lily's neck. It was left by Carlos? Hobson frowned.
Seeing that Hobson left, Lily was so tired that she lay on the bed with her head up. Kate also lay beside
her. Neither of them spoke. They just stared at the ceiling.
After a while, the door was pushed open and Zoey walked in. She came in with a plate of fruit salad on
her hands. Then she put the plate down on the table elegantly and sat beside Lily. With a frown, she
asked, "Lily, are you okay?"
"I am fine." Lily forced a smile.
Zoey saw the traces on Lily's neck and frowned. She comforted her softly, "that bad guy has been sent
to prison. You are fine now."
"Yes." Lily nodded and forced a smile. "I'm a little tired, Zoey."
"Okay, have a rest first." Zoey was so gentle that no one could find a flaw in her tone. At last, she stood
up and left.
When the bedroom door was closed again, Kate turned around and smiled at Lily, "you have a grudge
against your sister-in-law! But why do I feel that your hostility against her is not as obvious as it was
against me at that time? "
"Zoey is gentle and kind. She's a doctor too and always takes care of dad and mom. She's a good
person. She is not like you? " Lily cast a scornful glance at Kate and said, "you are capable, but you
don't even know how to cook. What's more, you are always against me. Why should I be kind to you?"
"……" Your second brother should be taken away by Zoey! Kate sighed. "No wonder your second elder
brother agreed to be together with Zoey. She is a good girl. Better than willful and arrogant you."
"Kate, do you want to be beaten?" Lily glared at Kate and said, "you are just a beautiful and useless
vase!"
"Hey, if my brain is a piece of trash, you definitely have no brain." Not to be outdone, Kate countered.
Lily was so angry that she grabbed the doll on the bed and wanted to hit Kate. But Kate didn't have the
slightest intention to resist. She just smiled at Lily and said, "watch out your god-boy..."
Lily stopped abruptly. She had promised that she would be the godmother of the baby in Kate's belly.
She thought for a while, and decided to put up with it. After this baby was born, it would be known what
"Revenge of a gentleman is a dish best served cold"!
Seeing that Lily was really frustrated, Kate tittered in her heart. As long as she took advantage of Lily's
weakness, Lily would be obedient.
