A—fter the hot kiss, both of them were a little breathless. Edwards Wayne laughed and joked: "We have just gotten engaged, and yet we're already so passionate. I truly regret not getting engaged earlier."
Lily was initially dazzled and blurry, but after hearing his teasing, she immediately sobered up, blushing red.
"Today's chaos were done by your uncle, right?" Usually, when Edwards Wayne made fun of her, she would definitely lose, because she did not have these evil thoughts in her head.
Edwards Wayne's face turned serious, and said in a low voice: "Yes, other than him, no one else would dare go against me!"
After receiving his confirmation, a hint of anger flashed past Lily's beautiful face: "You really shouldn't have let him do this kind of thing, why didn't you mention it to your grandfather? If your grandfather were to know about this, he would definitely be scared."
Edwards Wayne knew that Lily wanted to suppress John Wayne in his grandfather's name. Unfortunately, if his grandfather was just as healthy and robust as he was five years ago, of course Edwards Wayne could ask his grandfather for help.
But now, he had become the one protecting his grandfather. In order to extend his grandfather's life, he had endured a lot and didn't want to fall out with John Wayne.
"Lily, I will take care of this matter. Don't be angry, it won't be worth it if your anger subdue your health." Edwards Wayne gently stroked her long hair, not wanting to bring up this topic anymore.
However, Lily thought that he still wanted to be merciful to John Wayne, and immediately advised him anxiously, "Did you think that, givenyour uncle had just come out of prison, you should let him get away with it? But he was crossing the line! I also looked at those photos, they were all prepared. When my dad and I went out to eat dinner that day, he definitely got someone to follow us and took those photos. That's really too much." Edwards Wayne could understand Lily's anger, because he was also very angry, but he had to calm down.
"Lily, you're my fiancee now. There's something I don't want to hide secrets from you any more." Edwards Wayne's warm palm gently rubbed against her slender arm, and his voice revealed a touch of grief.
Lily knew that he had been preoccupied with something recently, and that there was definitely something troubling him. Unfortunately, he had been hiding something from her the entire time which Lily had wanted to ask, but she didn't dare to, because she was afraid of touching his taboo. At this moment, when he spoke with such a sorrowful tone, her heart trembled slightly.
"What is it?" Lily asked softly.
"My grandfather doesn't have much time left!" Edwards Wayne looked at her and saw the fear in her eyes. He lowered his head as pain flashed across his eyes: "I'm not joking with you, it's true!"
Lily was so shocked that she couldn't speak, her beautiful eyes flickered with pain on his handsome face, and in the next second, she threw herself into his embrace, hugging him tightly. You don't want your grandfather to worry about your relationship with your uncle anymore."
Edwards Wayne nodded, and gently stroked her long hair. "Yes, if it wasn't for my grandfather, I would have sent him to jail a long time ago."
"It's really too difficult for you!" Lily's heart ached even more, and hugged even more tightly. She really wanted to help him share some of the burden, not wanting him to suffer all of this by himself.
"It's not difficult. I'm collecting all kinds of evidence and am waiting for an opportunity. I really hope that this opportunity can be delayed a bit." Edwards Wayne couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
