Chapter 200 Invisible Tenderness


    After sending Karl off, Rex returns to the bedroom. It is almost nearly daybreak. He gently pushes open


    the door. On the big yet soft mattress, the woman is sleeping soundly on the side.


    He walks over quietly, each of the footsteps are very light, for fear of disturbing her from her dream.


    Upon walking in front of her, he unexpectedly smells a slight alcohol scent.


    The man’s dashing eyebrow presses together a little bit and leans forward to smell for a few times. It is


    indeed excluded from her body.


    Did she drink at the dinner tonight?


    Thinking that it is hard to resist her friendly colleagues, he cannot me her.


    Rex looks down at the white little face on the pillow. Wondering whether it is because the room is too


    hot, or the alcohol’s side effect, there is a faint of captivating blush.


    After raising her hand to cover the quilt on her body, he straightens up and when he is about to take a


    shower, the petite woman in her sleep curse silently out of sudden, “Asshole.”


    Rex pauses his footsteps violently and turns around in puzzlement, “What?”


    “Asshole.” Lily is still sleeping and stutters vaguely, “Rex is an asshole…..”


    “…” The old man’s face that is being called is a little dark. It is said that what you think in the day will


    appear in your dream. It seems that during the day, she has cursed him a lot in her heart.


    After inhales deeply, he pinches her cheek a little helplessly, trying to punish her but without much


    effort, “The asshole cares about you so much, huh? Are you blind?”


    He knows that by seeing him with Marina, she will definitely be unhappy. There is indeed nothing that


    makes her happytely. If she wants to curse, then let her curse. As long as he can bear it, as long as


    she does not restrain it inside, it is fine.


    Under the softmp in the bedroom, the man’s eyebrows are overwhelmed with the tenderness that no


    one else could see. He leans down again; his thin lip gently touches her smooth forehead, “As long as


    you don’t leave this asshole, everything''s up to you.”


    …


    Waking up early in the morning of the next day, Lily hardly has a day off. She is granted two days off


    before the New Year aspensation. Thinking that the New Year couplets she boughtst time have


    not stered yet, she chooses today.


    Things that should be done are always needed to be done.


    Sitting up from the bed, the position beside her is empty. Rex has gotten up earlier to the gym and then


    goes to thepany. She barely hears the rustling sound.


    Looking at the empty side, her heart is haunted by a trace of disappointment. When she came backst


    night, they had not had time to say a word, and he left again.


    After warming up for a while, Lily mps down and washes up. She goes to the dressing room and


    changes into afortable furry sweater and the same type of pants. Today, she might have to climb


    up a lot. Thus, wearing a casual one will be much better.


    When she goes downstairs, Fanny has already prepared breakfast for her to eat. Realizing that Lily


    likes toast, she deliberately learns how to use the toaster.


    A crisp duck toast and a spoonful of homemade blueberry jam, it is really appetizing and delicious.


    Marina looks at it greedily. However, the doctor tells her not to consume too much sweet. Thus, she


    can only eat the white congee that has not much appetite just by looking at it.


    She scoops a spoonful of porridge to her mouth and spontaneously says, “Lily, I really envied you. You


    can eat what you like. Unlike me, I can only eat porridge. There is no fun in my life.”


    Lily is unforeseen that she will take an initiative to talk to her, and does not know what her purpose is,


    pretending to be pitiful? Or be sympathy?


    Lily does not think about it and says faintly, “People like you, I believe they will find a lot of fun for


    themselves, not only in the food aspect.”


    After speaking, she smiles at Marina. There is nothing strange between her eyebrows and eyes


    although this sentence does not sound sofortable.


    Marina finds it hard to answer her. Thus, she does continue to say anything and only agrees with it.


    After breakfast, Lily and Fanny partnered up to bring the triangrdder out from the warehouse. She


    picks arge pair of couplets and hangs them up. Fanny holds her underneath and keeps telling her to


    be careful again and again.


    “Lily, you have good taste. Both couplets andnterns are very good!” Fanny is also burst with joy. She


    used to ster these things back at home. Thus, she is familiar with it.


    Lily smiles embarrassedly, “I bought it on the market, it not rare.”


    “It’s what you said, but you’re very attentive. Rex will be very happy to see it when he’s back!” After


    working with Rex for quite some time, she has understood his temperament. Even though Rex looks


    cold, he is actually very decent.


    This sentence happens to be heard by Marina who has juste over. She frowns and secretly res


    at Fanny. As a maid, this old bastard talked too much. When she bes the hostess, she’ll be first to


    fire her!


    Despite all the curses in her heart, Marina scans the result and says perfunctorily, “It’s pretty good.”


    After that, she changes the subject, “But… Rex does not like these messy things to be stered at


    home. Better not too much, or you’ll waste your time, Lily.”


    She thinks that Lily makes this by herself. But little did she know that she had told Rex long ago.


    At this moment, when she hears the seeming warmth yet sarcasm tone, her face also darkens. She


    does not say directly that Rex has agreed but deliberately says, “It doesn’t matter. If he doesn’t like it,


    I’ll tear it off. You don’t have to worry about me.”


    Her sentence eliminates Marina directly. Whether likes it or not, it is her problem with Rex. She does


    not need an outsider to involve in.


    Why can’t Marina hear it?


    She immediately retorts, “Lily, do you hostile me? I’m just afraid that you’ll waste your time, I have no


    other meaning.”


    “Really?” Lily’s vision sweeps toward her. There is a lot of chill in it, “Then thank you, I got it.”


    After finishing her speech, she does not look at Marina any longer and turns around to continue her


    own business. From time to time, she also asks Fanny’s opinion,pletely leaving her aside as a


    transparent person.


    Marina is mad. After entering the house, she picks up the phone, intending to call Rex. Her finger rises


    and falls on the phone number but still cannot press on it. After struggling for a long time, she gives up.


    Now, Rex is fascinated by this woman blindly and does not really speak to her.


    Thinking about it, the phone in her hand vibrates at the same time. She thinks that it is Rex. When she


    looks at it in surprise, she learns that it is Maxx.


    The joy on her face freezes instantly. Marina looks around and walks to the house slowly before picking


    it up, “Hello, Maxx?”


    She deliberately whispers in surprise, “Now you think of calling me.”


    At the end of the phone, the man pauses for a moment. There is slightly an exhale voice as if being


    thankful that he does not disturb her. After considering again and again, he asks carefully, “Are you


    doing well?”


    Marina is basically using Maxx. At this moment, when she hears him asking this way, it is inevitable for


    her heart to shake. Thinking of her unsmooth daystely, she deliberately squeezes her throat, “I don’t


    know whether it’s good or not, but I asionally miss North Vi. I feel like a third wheeler here, I might


    as well….”


    Speaking of which, she pauses for two seconds and grits her teeth to say the rest, “I might as well live


    in North Vi as before, and you’ll not trouble me.”Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
