Let's Get Married novel Chapter 400

After five years, he still keeps her phone number. Lily is a little cramped for a while, stuttering when she answers, "Yea…yes, it's me."

She thinks that Karl may wonder why she suddenly calls him. Unexpectedly, he just asks in a faint and warm voice, "How are you all these years?"

He is such a gentle and warm man. He has always been like this. Only his voice and appearance can make people feel like they can rely on him. Being with him is like a spring breeze, warm and nice. There is no pressure from him.

Thinking of that the reason she calls him is to ask for something, she suddenly feels ashamed, "I'm fine, how about you?"

"I'm good." After speaking, Karl smiles, "Actually, Rex mentioned your situation to me before."

"Yeah."

After a short conversation, it becomes silence.

Lily clenches her fingers on the phone tightly. She knows what to say. But it’s so hard for her to open her month. Even though it’s not a big favor, she still feel shy to ask. After all they don’t talk to each other for so long.

He is aware of her embarrassment. Then he says it first, "You call me to ask about Rex, right?"

She feels so grateful seeing him mentioning it first. She takes a deep breath and says, "Yes."

"What can I do? Tell me what I can do to help you."

Hearing this, Lily feels relieved. She has no worries of asking for help from him anymore. She is worried that she cannot explain clearly through the phone. She asks him out at the coffee shop of a five-star hotel, which is just three or four kilometers away. He agrees immediately.

After hanging up Lily's phone, Karl calls Rex immediately while walking out with the car key. As soon as Rex answers the phone, he says, "Did you leave Lily alone again?"

Rex is playing ball with Adair in the yard while he calls. Hearing his question, Rex feels unexpected. He raises his eyebrows and says, "How do you know?"

He doesn’t contact with Lily recently. But about this, he doesn’t tell anyone. How does he know?

Karl gets speechless, "Lily calls me just now to make an appointment with me. I know you must do something to her. Otherwise why would she be so desperate to ask for help from me?"

Rex doesn’t answer him, but asks, "Will you go?"

"Of course. How desperate she will be if I refuse!" Karl sighs. He feels that he has put so much effort for their affairs. "I feel I am your love assistant, Rex. Don’t go too far. It is not easy for Lily to take care of a kid alone. You frighten her instead showing her love. You don’t want to get married anymore, right?"

"Does she listen to me when I show my love?" Rex grits his teeth when he says that. He becomes angry when he thinks of what she says. "Don’t say too much when you see her. If she asks about the kid, you just answer you don’t know. She would think I could bear everything if I don’t make her feel frightened. She holds Ryan's hand in front of me. That’s too much."

After all, he just minds that she is not with him, instead, being with another man.

After all, it’s between Rex and Lily. What Karl can do is just to help as a mediation. When it goes to decisions and opinions, only two of them can make.

He reminds Rex in advance, "I'll say it first. If you scare her away, don't come to me to cry."

"Impossible." Rex is full of confidence. He looks at the little boy who is playing not far away. "Since she comes back, I will never make her leave me anymore. I swear!"
