Chapter 731: Chapter 734: Aidan Lucas, I Don’t Want You Anymore
Lily Gray stared at him, not only trying to find her words but also attempting to engrave every contour of his face into her mind one last time.
She feared that she would no longer have the opportunity to see him at such close proximity in the future.
Aidan Lucas walked closer towards her and asked softly, “Did Larry Scott allow you in? What conditions did he set?”
Seeing Lily Gray was beyond his expectations.
But after seeing her, his initial reaction was concern for her safety. He didn’t believe that Larry Scott was being kind-hearted.
Seeing Aidan Lucas drawing nearer, Lily Gray subtly stood up and took a step back.
The man’s deep black pupils instantly darkened.
Then, he heard the woman he had been obsessed with saying in a cold and indifferent tone, “I told him that I came to say goodbye to you.”
“Goodbye…”
Aidan Lucas narrowed his eyes, his gaze gradually growing colder, “You’re leaving now?”
“Yes.” Lily Gray strove to maintain her indifferent expression.
Aidan Lucas lowered his gaze, looking at the small face he had longed for day and night.
On her delicate and beautiful features, there was an indifference that was bitterly disappointing.
“I don’t believe you.”
He forcefully grabbed her arm, not allowing her to distance herself.
“My grandmother just had an accident, and you’re telling me you’re leaving? Lily, I don’t believe you’re this kind of person. Tell me, is Larry Scott forcing you?”
“No, it’s just that I’ve come to understand.” Lily Gray carelessly broke free.
After realizing she couldn’t break free, she gave up resisting and let him hold her, disguising herself with indifference.
“Understand what? My grandmother’s death is Larry Scott’s fault, my fault for underestimating him, but it’s certainly not your fault.”
It only took Aidan Lucas a quick look to discern Lily Gray’s thought process.
“Lily, I won’t tolerate your wild conjectures. You don’t need to take responsibility for my grandmother’s death. And rest assured, I will avenge her!”
The man’s fingers tightened, the knuckles on his arm turning white from the force of his grip on her arm.
Lily Gray only felt a heart-piercing pain in her arm, but she bit her lip and didn’t make a sound.
What did that matter, compared to the pain in her heart?
“Aidan Lucas, stop talking nonsense. How are you going to avenge her? Yes, I admit, you’re head of the Lucas family and powerful, but you’ve also seen it. The Lucas family is in a crisis now, people have killed my grandmother, and what about you? You can only stay inside, unable to go anywhere!”
“Don’t forget, you’re only one person, not a monster with three heads and six arms. You can deal with Larry Scott, you can deal with the Presidential Palace, you’re fearless in front of anyone. But what about when they team up? Do you still have the ability to handle everything?”
“I’m tired, I don’t want to live this kind of anxious life anymore.”
Forcing herself to bear the increasingly sharp pain in her arm, she said indifferently, “Don’t think so highly of me. I’m not doing this for anyone. I’m just weak and scared, and I want a peaceful life. So, Aidan Lucas, let’s end it here, I don’t want you anymore.”
The hand that was tightly gripping her finally let go when she finished her last sentence.
Aidan Lucas stared at the woman in front of him.
He couldn’t believe that these words had just come from her mouth.
It felt as though he had been stabbed in the chest, not only stabbed, but also turning the blade over and over in his exposed wound.
This unbearable pain twisted Aidan Lucas’s handsome and noble features.
[Author’s Note] The last paragraph is a bit sad, bear with it, probably by today or tomorrow, the story will continue a few years later.
