His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 447

Lily did not expect to see the young man she had been trying so hard to find in her family’s backyard. He looked like he did not change much except that there were no more sparkles in his eyes. There was a gloomy atmosphere surrounding him instead.

“Everyone who’s here today has the same purpose,” Benedict stated as he raised his head nonchalantly and glanced toward the banquet hall.

“Then why aren’t you inside?” Lily asked.

“You’re not either.” Benedict looked at Lily.

Although Benedict looked less happy than his previous self, he was still the same mouthy kid.

“You still owe me an explanation. Why did you quit all of a sudden? You were the one who promised that you’d handle the job I gave you properly, but then you just disappeared without even a text or a phone call,” Lily could finally voice out her dissatisfaction after keeping it inside for such a long time.

When Benedict heard what she said, his eyes became further clouded. He did not try to explain and just mumbled, “I had my reasons. Also, I’ve sent you the finished product and didn’t even charge you. So, we’re even,” Benedict said.

He was standing with his hands in his sky-blue padded jacket's pockets. He looked outstanding amid the snowy landscape, his blue jacket making him look younger and refreshed.

Lily shook her head. “How are we even? You didn’t even give me the raw materials! Where’s my wood?” She finished and extended her palm toward him. They agreed that Lily could take home the special wood he had as a distinctive fragrance from the wood attracted her. She took a small sample back home and wanted to return for more.

“I don’t have it,” Benedict answered outrightly.
