Her Heart Her Terms (Lily and Xavier) novel Chapter 372

Chapter 372 

Lily tried to explain, hoping that Brace would just let her go, but Bruce wasn’t the type to listen to explanations or reason. 

He finally figured out that Lily wasn’t interested in him, but he said, “It doesn’t matter whether you want to get married or not. As long as the Joyners want you to get mi 

Emarried, and I’m willing to marry you, that’s enough!” 

“There are plenty of people who would marry you, so why do you insist on marrying someone who doesn’t love you?” Lily was extremely forious. “Let go of me, this will never 

work between us!” 

Lily wasn’t sure what she said triggered him. Bruce’s expression darkened, and he said, “What is impossible for us if you can set your sights on someone like Xavier Fulton? Stop pretending to be so high and mighty in front of me. You probably act all wild in front of Xavier!” 

Lily and Xavier had been married in secret for two years. To the outside world, they had no connection at all. 

When she heard Bruce mention Xavier and had such an assessment of her, she instinctively asked, “Who told you that I know Xavier?” 

“Why? You don’t dare to admit it? You should look at yourself first, Someone like Ms. Lynde is the one who deserves Xavier. You’re not even fit to be in their presence.” H 

The more Bruce spoke, the angrier he got Lily in his eyes at that moment was just a person aiming for something beyond her station, but this bitch insisted on pretending to be dignified in front of him. He wanted to tear apart her charade. 

He continued his rambling, “Plus, they are already married. Yet, you’re still hung up on him and pretending to be all righteous and lecturing me!” 

After he ended his rambling, his pulling of Lily became more forceful. 

Lily struggled and couldn’t even wonder who might have told Bruce all these things. But no matter how hard she struggled, she wasn’t as strong as Bruce. 

Just as she was about to be dragged into the elevator, a pair of hands suddenly grabbed Bruce’s wrist. The hands rightened just enough for the veins on the back to stand out. “Bruce, let go of her.“” 

“Terence’s expression was thunderous, and his voice was low and full of warning. 

Bruce’s wrist hurt, and he had to release Lily When he turned around and saw it was Terence, his expression immediately changed “Mr. Devereux. 

Lily rubbed her wrist, which had turned red from the manhandling, and stood behind Terence. 

“Who do you think you are? Maryanne was also there, and she rushed out from behind Terence. “Why don’t you take a piss and look at yourself? what gives you the right to touch her? 

“I’m telling you, she’s under my 

my protection. She’s under the Devereux family’s protection. Try touching her again and watch!” 

Behind Terence and Maryanne stood Manka. Marika walked over and lifted Lily’s wrist. When she saw it was bruised and red, her eyes revealed her concern and heartache. Marike looked at Bruce in anger. 

“You really have some nerve to even interfere in our family’s matters. If Mrs. Watson Senior hadn’t told me that her son didn’t meet Lily because you intercepted him, I would have been kept in the dark!” Marika snarled. 

With the situation exposed, Bruce immediately apologized, not daring to offend anyone from the Devereux Lamily 

“I’m sorry, Mrs. Devereux Senior, Ms. Devereux, and Mr. Devereux…I thought she was playing both sides by going on blind dates with two men.
