Chapter 1306


    Lily looked around as she exited the car. It was not far from what she had imagined. With Cameron''s


    identity, it was not a good idea for him to live too extravagantly. Hence, he stayed in an ordinary, two-


    story bungalow which looked elegant from the outside.


    After entering the house, a maid served Lily some tea and desserts. "Ms. Rollins will be down soon."


    Lily nodded, and the maid left to do her work. The house was spacious, and because there was not


    much furniture and appliances around, it made the space look even more prominent. She could see


    almost everything in the living room at one nce.


    There were not many luxurious or expensive things here, and it appeared that Cameron was just as


    Alexander had described. Cameron was a meticulous man in many aspects.


    There were a few decorative items in the living room as well. A few pots of bonsai were in sight, and


    the pots which contained them looked in.


    While looking around, Lily heard slow and heavy footstepsing from the stairs. A momentter,


    Anastasia came into her sight.


    Anastasia had one hand on the stairs'' handle as she descended the steps slowly, coughing from time


    to time. Despite her appearance, she looked like a youngdy from a wealthy family.


    "I must''ve kept you waiting for a while, Mrs. Russell," Anastasia said softly, contrasting her aggressive


    side in the cafe back then. She had her gaze lowered, looking much gentler this time.


    "I just arrived." Lily stood up respectfully. "Sorry for visiting so abruptly. Did I interrupt your rest?"


    Anastasia waved. "There''s no such thing. I have nothing to do every day anymore. I just eat and sleep


    all day long."


    She sounded tired and somewhat upset. Lily knew Anastasia was unhappy and that the youngdy


    was just pretending to be ostentatious because that was how she protected herself.


    Anastasia did that because she did not want others to look at her strangely, and she did not want to be


    the talk of their gossip. Hence, she believed she had to show that she was not someone to be messed


    with.


    "I love the agarwood you gave mest time, but I bet it was costly," Lily expressed the intention of her


    visit first, indicating that she was here to return a gift.


    Although she gave her dress to Anastasia the other time, that was just because of a misunderstanding


    between them. Even if she bought a dress for the youngdy, it would not sufficepared to the


    agarwood.


    It was indeed out of Lily''s expectations to receive something so costly from Anastasia. The price was


    not what astounded her the most, but the fact that Anastasia knew what she wanted. Lily loved the


    agarwood, and that was the most important thing.


    "Oh, is that so?" Anastasia raised her brow, appearing like she did not know about it. She was not


    pretending to be a show-off, but she honestly had no idea about it. "I don''t know much about those


    things. My friend gave it to me before, but I don''t know how to take care of these things.


    "I heard you love nts and have many at home, so I thought it''d be a good idea to gift them to you.


    I''m d that you like them!"


    "Of course I do!" It turned out that Anastasia had no idea how expensive her gift was, but Lily still


    thanked her sincerely.


    ‘The agarwood is something precious and costly. Won''t you regret giving it to me just like that?"


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    "Why would I? No matter how precious it is, it''s a waste for someone who knows nothing about it to


    keep. It''ll only be valuable in your hands. Since you like it, gifting it to you was worth it!"


    Anastasia waved and lifted her legs naturally as shey on the couch.


    While looking at Lily, she asked, "You wouldn''t mind me talking to you in this position, would you?"
