Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 437

Chapter 437

The temperature dropped every day until it started snowing at night. Since it did not snow very often in Sapphine City, when it did, it only covered a thin layer on the tree and melted before more snow could build up.

Heading toward Brown City, the scenery along the way changed visibly. Snowfall in Sapphine was more akin to sleet fall. It was a rain that contained some ice and looked like crystal droplets. Brown City was different.

The further you went toward Brown City, the heavier the snowfall. It was not tiny droplets but large snowflakes. The snow on the ground also grew thicker. By the time they got to the Lodge house, the snow by the road was already ankle–deep.

“Sapphine City is not far from Brown City. I didn’t expect such a big difference. It snowed heavily here.” Lily got out of the car and reached out to catch a snowflake. She was soon covered in a layer of snow stuck to her head, shoulder, and palm that did not melt away immediately. It had been years since she last saw snow, and her mood improved as she stood in it.

“It‘s the house in front. It‘s been a while since you came back, right?” Alexander put a shawl on her and handed her a cup of hot chocolate. The car had a thermos filled with hot water, and the prepared hot chocolate was very fragrant. Although it was incomparable to home, it was comfortable enough for an outing Lily took a sip and nodded, “Yeah.” She tried to recall, “It‘s probably been... six or seven years!”

She had not returned since she left for college. She stayed on campus during her studies and was busy doing experiments, checking materials, and going to various places to collect information during holidays. In any case, she had many reasons to avoid coming back.

Her grandfather, Wilfred, was stubborn and would never persuade her to return if she did not return on her own. In his words, “If she doesn‘t want to come back, so be it! Do I need to beg her?”

“If you still find it uncomfortable and don‘t want to face it yet, we can go back,” Alexander offered again.

“No need, It‘s been a long time since I last returned. It‘s time to go back and see grandpa.” Lily had left for many years. Did she want to cut off contact for the rest of her life? She knew in her heart that it was impossible. Now that Lily was in a relationship with Alexander, she should inform her family, regardless of whether they wanted to know.

“Let‘s go!” Alexander could see her insistence as he took her empty cup and threw it into the trash can in the car. Lily smiled and clenched his hand. She was not afraid of anything as long as she had him by her side.

The remaining journey was not too far, and they soon arrived at the Lodge family‘s house.
