Chapter 1737


    Lily walked into the house and sat on the sofa before answering the phone. "Olivia, what''s wrong?"


    Lily had a suspicion in her heart that Olivia would somehow reach out to her after she and Alexander


    left.


    Olivia was not brainless. Although she loved Edward very much, Lily believed Olivia would be able to


    tell who was lying after the confrontation today.


    Olivia sounded a little rushed on the phone, panting. "Lily, Edward… he went out."


    "Went out? What do you mean?" Lily nced at Alexander, who was subconsciously warming up some


    milk for himself. As if he could sense his wife’s gaze, he looked in her direction.


    "He got up while I was asleep and secretly went out alone. I don''t know where he drove off to. Lily, I-I''m


    scared!" Olivia''s voice trembled as she spoke, sounding like she was about to cry. She was scared of


    what Edward was hiding from her. She was scared of the truth.


    Lily frowned and sat up slightly. "He drove out alone? Wait, isn''t he injured? Doesn''t he need a


    wheelchair?"


    Olivia felt a little embarrassed when Lily brought that up. "His legs are fine. I just found out as well. I


    don''t know what other things he has kept from me, and I don''t understand why he is doing that. Lily, I''m


    so sorry. I''m so sorry I doubted you before this. I…"


    "Okay, enough. You don''t have to say all this. Don''t panic, now. I''ll get someone to check on Edward’s


    whereabouts immediately. Go home and wait for my news. Don''t go anywhere, especially since you''re

    still pregnant. You need to take care of yourself, do you understand?"


    Lily sounded severe, and although Olivia was hesitant, she listened to Lily as always. "Okay, I''ll listen to


    you. I''ll go home and wait, but.."


    After pausing, she cautiously asked, "Lily, can you promise me you won''t hurt Edward, no matter


    what?"


    Even if Edward lied to her, she would give him the benefit of the doubt that he did this as ast resort.


    She did not want to see him get hurt.


    "Of course. Edward is our friend too!" Lily replied without hesitation, "You should go back. I''ll call you


    immediately if I hear anything."


    "Okay." With that, Olivia hung up the phone.


    "Edward went out?" Alexander already picked up what they were talking about but did not interrupt


    when Lily was still on the phone.


    "Yeah." She nodded and looked at him. "His legs are fine as well."


    Alexander nodded thoughtfully. "Honestly, I was wondering why he was in a wheelchair today. Although


    he did get injured, he didn''t hurt his legs. I just didn''t bother questioning it today. Now, it looks like he


    does have something to hide from us."


    "It is strange for him to point fingers at you like this. Someone must’ve instructed him to do so. What’s


    the purpose behind this? Is it just to separate you two?"


    ‘There must be a motive, but is the person behind this controlling Edward and sowing dissension to get


    rid of Alexander''s right-hand man? Things won''t be that simple.’


    "We''ll know once we find out who''s behind this." Alexander raised his eyebrows and handed the warm


    milk to Lily. "Leave the rest to me."


    He patted her arms lightly, obviously not intending to let her meddle in these things.


    "But, I…" Everything was too strange to Lily. She knew Alexander was the primary target, so she could


    not just sit back and watch everything unfold.


    However, Alexander interrupted her, "What did you say to Olivia just now?"
