Let's Get Married novel Chapter 209

On the other side, when Rex drives back to the Villa, the speed is different from the snail-speed before. On the way back, his average speed is about one hundred and twenty miles. It is too fast that even the scenery outside the window, or even a shadow could not be seen clearly.

When he is waiting for the traffic light in the intersection, the phone that is resting on the side suddenly vibrates. Picking it up, it is Lily who called.

His sight touches this word and immediately thinks of that soft yet tender little face. The ice in the bottom of the man’s eyes melts away. Even though they have only separated away, he is already eager to hear her voice.

The phone has directly connected to the car’s Bluetooth; he then quickly picks it up, deliberately presses his voice low, making a captivating voice, “Hello?”

The other end keeps silent for two seconds before followed by an old sound. It happens when the green light is on and when Rex is about to drive the car. After hearing the sound, he even slants aside the steering wheel, causing the car in the next lane to horn.

He drives back to his driveway again, feeling a little lost, which is quite rare for him, “Hello, Lily?”

“I’m not Lily, I’m Lily’s father.”

The microphone transmits a man’s fully thick voice, even Rex’s arms that are holding the steering wheel freeze. He even deliberately looks at the caller ID on his phone again, fearing that he might make a mistake.

The screen clearly indicates that word, it is really Lily, but why it is her father who is talking to him?

Rex has never been like this before, his mood swings have changed so much. A second before, his heart was still calm. At this moment, it has surged into a stormy wave.

However, the panic in his heart is not shown on the face. He then replies politely and obediently, “Hello, Sir. I’m Lily’s boyfriend, Rex.”

After it, he seems to feel that his attitude is a little impolite, he then adds another sentence, “I didn’t know that it was you just now, sorry”

“It’s fine,” Harry responds faintly, showing the manner of the seniority. He glances at his daughter who keeps on eavesdropping behind him, then takes the phone and goes straight to his room. When he arrives, he does not forget to lock the door, making sure that she could not hear it before saying, “We have received the things you told Lily to give us. It is very good. But we can’t use it either. Next time, don’t waste too much. We don’t have any custom at home, just a small gift or caring words are fine. You don’t have to be so extravagance, we couldn’t afford it too.”

The words that Harry said seem amiable but in fact, he puts on his own position and attitude. Rex aware of it and does not answer him hurriedly. He replies him once he had finished, “Sir, I personally select these things and I think it suits you and aunty. If you don’t like it, I will try to ask Lily next time. You don’t have to feel burdened. This is all I should do.”

He should do?

Harry silently smiles, and then shakes his head. He is indeed a good-talker.

“In short, we are really grateful and I’ve heard your relationship with Lily from her. If you have time, come and have a meal at my house.” Harry’s words are absolutely for courtesy.

Unexpectedly, Rex deliberately takes this chance, “Sir, I will return back to the country on the fourth day of the New Year. Until then, you and aunty can come to my place and look at where Lily usually stays.”

Harry has only made an invitation and he has seized this chance. Neither refuse nor accept is right, thus, he only says ambiguously, “I’m quite busy in the New Year. I’ll ask my wife later, you can contact Lily afterward.”

Rex does not have any request and easily agrees, “Okay, Sir. Wishing you and aunty a Happy New Year, Goodbye.”

After hanging up the phone, Harry finds that he unexpectedly is sweating a little in his palm. He was too concentrated that did not pay attention to it. Now, he realizes how tight his emotions are.

He is also an experienced person. At this moment, even talking over the phone with a junior can make him so nervous. The other person is absolutely not an ordinary person.

Rex, he has heard before but does not understand it well. Now, it seems that the rumor outside is not completely fake. This child is quite young but knows what others are thinking, he is indeed extremely clever.

Harry is scratching his head when the door of the room is knocked from the outside, followed by Lily’s tentative question, “Dad, are you done, I urgently need to use my phone.”

She could not see nor hear, which almost makes her anxious to death.

Harry walks to the door with the phone and unlocks the door, then hands the phone indifferently, “Here.”
