Chapter 340: Inexplicable Love
Ryan is familiar with this name; although he has never seen this person, he has an ever-present sense
that Rex is his love rival.
He pauses and says, “Who did you mention?”
“Rex, it''s him!” Lily starts to cry. Her eyshes are already wet and the tears are flowing, “Are you
satisfied now that you know? Can you release me?”
Ryan never expects that the person could have been Rex. He is shocked. He releases his grip on Lily
and extracts his hand. Before he can say anything, a stinging p swipes across his face.
The sonorous sound of pping reverberates in the stairwell.
Lily''s face is wet with tears and she looks at him. She can barely see him through the tears. But she is
very clear in her heart, “Ryan, I''m so disappointed with you!”
He is not ready for the p and his left cheek is still stinging from the p. It is obvious how much
strength she has used. The inner part of his mouth is cut by his teeth and he can taste fresh blood.
He uses his tongue to lick his lips and lifts his hand to rub his cheek. He tilts his head andughs, “Rex
is here?”
Lily sees his expression and her heart tenses up. She holds onto her cor and her eyes are red,
“Don''t mention him, what you did was as the same as what he had done! Even if I said no, you didn''t
believe it. What do you want to achieve?”
Ryan doesn''t speak.
But Lily doesn''t intend to let him avoid the question, “You vited me in this corner and vented your
desires regardless of my feelings!”
Will he?
Ryan doesn''t know. He only knows that when he heard of Rex''s name, his brain ceased to function.
“I thought that after five years together, you will trust me. You shouldn''t have used such a way to force
me. You are disappointed with me?” Lily emphasizes each and every word, “I am also very
disappointed with you!”
After finishing, she doesn''t care about his feelings and walks out of the stairwell passing him. Soon, the
door is opened and shut and she enters her apartment.
Ryan presses on his temples and forces himself to calm down but all his efforts are in vain.
He is wrong for not controlling his temper but he is very clear that if it happens all over again, he will
react the same way.
But if he knows from the beginning that it''s Rex, he will not touch her.
Ryan recalls how she cried and thinks about how she was delicate and yet put up a strong front. His
heart is a mess and he punches the wall in fury.
“Bang!” His knuckles turn red from the punch but he appears to not feel them at all. His bloodshot eyes
stare nkly into the empty wall.
The efforts of these five years are ruined by tonight. She not only pped on his face, but also into his
heart.
It is too painful, too painful.
Ryan turns around and leans on the wall. He slides down and sits on the floor. He doesn''t dare to walk
into that apartment. She is frightened and perhaps will feel better without him.
Ryan starts to smoke one cigarette after another. Normally he doesn''t smoke that much but now he
intensely smokes each one of them.
Five years passes, what is meant to appear has appeared. Z city and London are so far apart and yet
he appears; it''s unavoidable. Even if he doesn''t want to admit it, that man and Lily have some strange
destiny.
His eyes are deep. If he can''t avoid, he must handle directly.
Rex! Ryan''s heart keeps thinking about this name. Let''s see who will smile in the end.
…
After Lily leaves, Fraser goes back and simply reports, “Miss Lily is home safely.”
Rex listens calmly as he sits on the bed that she wasying on a moment ago, “Did she say anything?”
Fraser thinks about the few conversations that he had with Lily but he doesn''t want to affect him any
further and just says, “Miss Lily doesn''t appear to be in a good mood.”
Not… in a good mood?
Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
With a cigarette in his fingers, he touches his forehead and ponders. It''s normal to be in a bad mood.
He had done something bad on her, and her disgust and unwillingness were written on her face. She
must have been disgusted.
When he ponders this portion, he can''t help but recall the name on her phone. His heart bes
gloomy and he orders, “Go and investigate this man called Ryan, use the quickest possible means to
give me the information.”
Fraser is stunned for a moment and then answers, “Yes, Mr. Rex.”
“You may leave.” He suddenly says.
Fraser looks at the door and asks, “What about you…”
“I''ll stay here tonight.” The light on the ceiling falls on his body, forming a strong contrast from the night
scene outside. His voice is emotionless, “Pick me up tomorrow morning.”
“Yes.” Though Fraser doesn''t understand, as a subordinate, he shouldn''t ask too much. He turns
around and leaves, closing the door on his way out.
Only Rex remains in therge room and everything quiets down.
He picks up the file that was given by Freddie and in it is the work record of a Caucasian from the time
he joined thepany until he left. His name was written as Davy.
This is the intiff in charge by Lily, the one who didn''t receive a reasonablepensation for his work
injuries.
It is amusing when he thinks about it. They met again under such strange circumstances after five
years. Thepany that he invested in had this situation and coincidentally this caused Lily to appear.
He always feels like he is the culprit even though he isn''t the one responsible.
Rex nces a couple of times and ces the file back and lies down on the bed. His eyes squint due
to the lights from the ceiling.
To what extent has he been smitten by her?
He even refuses to leave the room just because she has been there and therefore the room retains
some of her scents. He has somewhere to return to but yet tells the person responsible for the banquet
that he will stay there.
He even closed the windows for fear that these feelings will escape.
Rexughs bitterly. He doesn''t remember when he became the type of person he despises - a person
who is lost in love and does stupid things for the sake of love.
He raises his hand and ces it on his forehead. The light shines down on his face and he spreads out
the fingers. The way he lived these five years was not different from being dead. It''s a pity that she
doesn''t know or perhaps she doesn''t want to know.
He can ept the punishment for all the wrongs that he had done. He just doesn''t want Lily to forget
about him and to love someone else. He can''t ept it. He is struggling on this path towards love, just
like an old man trekking through a desert, while Lily is his only source of water and his only
craving.
