Chapter 70 From Now On, We are Family


    Lily recalls her words from the meeting just now. Thus, this person is still here waiting for her.


    “Rex, this is apany.” She shouts his name, which is very bold.


    The man who is being shouted is stunned for a second, then snorts and touches her forehead, “You


    are indeed really bold to shout your boss’ name.”


    Really bold…


    Is it apliment?


    Lily’s mouth twitches, “I’m leaving, get off.”


    By looking at her little persistence, Rex either loves or hates her restraint. Without a word, he holds on


    her ipital bun and kisses it.


    He is very tall yet Lily is sitting, which cause his straight posture bent into a very curvy curved. He


    simply ces one of his hand on her head and the others tucks inside the pocket, then kisses her as


    much as possible.


    Lily’s heart thumps. It has been a while since thest time she felt this way. She doesn’t even been so


    emotional when she had just started a rtionship with Tim.


    This man indeed is born to be different. Every action he did reveals an intoxicating charm.


    However, every time is too sudden, and yet this is a meeting room… she is really nervy.


    Thinking of it, Lily’s feeling mixed up. Her mind suddenly goes wild and bit his lower lips violently. She


    is unable to control her strength, which makes Rex sizzles and releases her.


    He then straightens up and raises his hand to strokes the lower lips, slightly squinting, “Are your teeth a


    sharp w?”


    Lily looks at the red part that is bitten by her in alt, “Let’s see how you are going to the meetingter.”


    She is deted every time. And now, it’s his turn to be rectified.


    His face is a little stinky, but soon recovers and pulls his lower lips vaguely, “Okay, you’ll suffer tonight.”


    The silly Lily’splexion doesn’t look good. She suddenly doesn’t feel like weing tonight.


    This is what Rex wants. When he sees her face, he gradually speaks, “Wait for meter. There’s a


    party tonight,e with me.”


    “What party?”


    “Close friend party, with Karl and the gang.” All of them had been friends for many years. They will


    always gather together once in a while to update about their recent life. After hearing about him and


    Lily, they eagerly want to meet Lily.


    Rex definitely has no problem with it, but Lily….


    “How many people are there? Who are they, besides Karl? Is Orson there? What about Pehry from the


    Red club, is he going? Did you guys going to drink tonight? Will you guys be drunken….” A beanbag of


    question is thrown one after another, Rex doesn’t even know which question to answer first.


    He then reaches out and grabs her small hand on the knee, “Calm down.”


    “I’m very nervous….” Lily’s face is bitter, “If I’d known earlier, I would wear the other clothes.”


    ck and white is a professional suit. Although the ck V-neck jumpsuit is very heavy, it matches


    rigidly with the long zer.


    “This is fine.” Rex slightly checking her out, she always looks good in his eyes no matter what.


    Thinking of it, Rex’s eyes are a little serene.


    Lily is unaware of it. All of her thoughts are too nervous that she doesn’t even know how to get back to


    the office. For the whole afternoon, she couldn’t concentrate on the work. She keeps on distracted.


    Even though she had met most of them, but not when they are gathering together, which cause her


    uneasy. She doesn’t even know what is her impression in their eyes.


    Julia is suspended and reces by a woman called Kinsey. Although they are all female managers,


    Kinsey seems to be much more capable than Julia. As if in her eyes, all she knows is about work and


    doesn’t care about gossips.


    Lily really likes the new leader. At least she no longer needs to be ‘tortured’ by Julia anymore.


    Right at half past five, the department is off on time. Crystal dances happily, while Lily feels miserable.


    “Why do you put on that face? We barely get off on time!” Crystal is bewildered with her emotion.


    Lily lets out a long sigh, “Huft, you can go first. I still have some work to do.”


    “You are too serious that you work overtime by yourself.” Crystal pretends topliment her with a


    nod, “Good luck then, I’ll leave first, bye—”


    “Bye….”

    By looking at Crystal and others leaving, Lily lies on her desk pathetically and takes out her phone to


    text Rex. The other party replies her text in a second, which is only concise and short words:e up.


    Ten minutester, Lily enters the CEO’s office from the side door of Joe’s office.


    Rex is sitting at this desk and mutters something. He might is dealing with a business affairs through


    video conference.


    She tiptoes carefully to the sofa, which is in the middle of the office to sit. Minute by minute pass and


    he is not done yet, thus she simply takes out the phone to y game by herself.


    About half an hourter, Rex finally gets up from the chair. Lily is obsessed with the game and only


    realizes it once the phone is taken away.


    “Are you done?”


    Rex looks down at the screen and says, “By looking at your fascination to the game, I don’t think you’re


    nervous anymore.”


    She doesn’t even realize he’s here.


    Lily touches her nose unnaturally, “I’m good.”


    After the tense afternoon, she still is a little nervous, but feels much calmer now.


    Both of them left thepany together, and drives the car to the suburb to an exquisite French dining


    hall, which is built on a hillside.


    The sky ispletely dark. The shape of the fountain outside the door is changed by the blue light.


    The melodious music can be heard from the ss rotating on the second floor of the restaurant, which


    form a sense of luxury.


    The car parks at the door and the bellboye over to pick up the key. They walks to the lobby and


    greets by a waiter, who is wearing a mixture of ck and white uniform with a butterflies tie.


    The entire second floor has no wall tiles, instead, it is reced by a 360-degree panoramic ss. With


    a nce, you can see the high-ss area with a light at the foot of the mountain not far away. The hall


    is covers with high quality wool carpets, which has only one long table, no other guest. It is booked.


    Lily sees three men sitting next to a table and a woman in a blouse and trousers at the corner. Although


    the outfit is in and simple, her face made her look outstanding.


    When Rex walks over, a few of them smile deeply, “Come here.”


    Rex greets them by slightly nodding. He supports Lily’s lower back with his palm, which took some


    effort, “Lily, I don’t think you need to be introduced anymore?”


    Pehry sounds cheesy, “No need. We’ve met before. Hello Lily, I’m Pehry. We finally met again. From


    now on, we’re family.”


    A family…
