Let's Get Married novel Chapter 480

Normally, Lily doesn’t have good ways to ask Rex to do the body check. Every time, she acts like a thief, pretending to be normal in front of Rex, while discussing with Karl about withdrawal in private.

Now he takes the initiative to mention it, but Lily isn’t happy.

“Alright. I’ll go with you.” Even though she doesn’t know what Rex is thinking, she can’t refuse.

This addiction attack came and went fast, but it plants a seed in the bottom of their hearts, as if a hidden danger lies between them.

Lily knows that it’s a time bomb that would detonate one day, but she has no other choice but to wait. She is like a prisoner who has been sentenced to death. She knows that Rex would find out the truth one day. She could only delay, but she can’t change the result.

The best possibility is that the addiction could be completely cured before Rex realizes it. Would such a miracle happen?

She doesn’t know, but she just hopes that it would happen.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you home.” Rex calms down and picks up the jacket from the sofa.

Lily follows him, looking at the sweat stains and countless wrinkles on his shirt. The corridor lights reflect on his head, casting a lonely halo.

When Rex says “go home”, the air around him becomes not that cold. Lily takes two steps forward and holds his large palm. He subconsciously shrinks his slender fingers, but soon clenches her hands more tightly.

...

The next morning, after Rex wakes up, he doesn’t have breakfast. He rushes directly to the hospital where Karl works. When a man has a body check, he’d better not have meals before the inspection.

When Rex and Lily arrive at the hospital, it is only nine o’clock. Lily hasn’t found an opportunity to communicate with Karl since yesterday. Now she is going to see him directly. She is a little flustered. Fortunately, Karl performs normally. He does a complete physical examination for Rex according to the procedure of the previous examination.

The equipment of Karl’s Hospital is the most advanced in this industry. All values in the physical examinations can be printed out immediately.

Seeing the result sheet is handed over to Rex, Lily becomes nervous. Karl notices her feelings. He teases, “Don’t worry. The values are normal.”

Hearing this, Lily heaves a sigh of relief, knowing that Karl has changed the result.

“Sorry to trouble you, Karl.”

“Not at all. We are friends.”

Rex looks at the result sheet in his hand and frowns. The values do not fluctuate much from that on his previous result sheets. However, he knows his own condition very well. It can’t be that the values are normal judging by his symptoms yesterday.

“Is the result correct?” Rex interrupts their chat in a calm voice.

Karl raises his hand and gently pats him on the shoulder. “Rex, what’s the matter? We’ve known each other for so many years, but you don’t trust me?”

They are both over 1.8 meters tall. When they stand side by side, the aura around them becomes unusual. As old friends for many years, they know each other’s view with a single glance.

Rex knows that he can’t get anything from Karl. He frowns and hands the result sheet to Lily, who is standing beside him. “Nothing. There’s something wrong with my body recently. Perhaps I’m too sensitive.”

“If you have any concerns, you can tell me.”

Rex slightly frowns. He recalls the result sheet that he got from the hospital.

Rex stares at Lily for a while and makes sure that she is asleep. Then he takes out his phone and finds a number with the name of “Lee” from the address boOkay. He opens the “message” and sends the result sheet that he got just now.

Not long after, the phone vibrates. Lee texts back. It is a short sentence.

“No problem with the result and all values are normal.”

Rex is not calmed down when seeing this message. He gazes at the word “normal”. Karl is a professional doctor. If he wants to hide something, he will make perfect values, so that there won’t be obvious flaws.

After pondering for a moment, Rex texts again, “Are you sure?”

This time, he waits for nearly ten minutes before receiving the reply. Compared to the previous message, the present one is more accurate.

“There’s no problem with the result according to the values. If you want to verify it in detail, you must do a thorough check. If you have time, you can come to me. The result is correct based on the values on the sheet.”

Once Rex finishes reading the message, the car drives on the speed reduction belts. Although the car itself can ease the vibration, they are jolted. He immediately puts the phone aside. Fortunately, Lily is not woken up, but moves her body uneasily.

Without further delay, he taps on the screen with his fingertips.

“Tomorrow night I’ll come to you. See you then.”
