Chapter 1377: Can You Please Stop Being So Improper All the Time
Seeing his wife glaring at him with dissatisfaction, Easton Holmes suddenly realized he had inadvertently upset his wife just now. He quickly put on what he thought was his best smile, "Honey! I only knew about Heath liking Athena after you mentioned it just now, it’s..."
"Don’t explain, explaining is just covering up," Lily Turner raised her hand to stop Easton Holmes from continuing. After stopping him, she immediately followed up with, "Do you think Athena would marry Heath? No way, Athena only has Thomas Fisher in her heart; she doesn’t like Heath at all. It’s better not to push them together."
Even though something like that happened between them, it wasn’t a natural outcome of mutual affection. What happened was entirely due to a ’scheme’.
Hearing this, Easton Holmes blurted out, "Back then, you didn’t like me when you married me either."
As soon as he said it, he somewhat regretted it, but taking it back was no longer possible.
"At that time, you didn’t like me either," Lily Turner retorted unhappily.
Easton Holmes raised his hand to ruffle Lily Turner’s hair and smiled indulgently, "My wife has always been adorably silly from the start, and I just grew fonder."
Would he marry a woman he liked as his wife? The answer is certainly no.
"You’re the silly one..." Lily Turner suddenly froze, and after a moment, a look of surprise mixed with joy appeared on her face, "Are you saying you liked me from the start?!"
Although he didn’t say it directly, that was what he meant. She understood. Having been with this shrewd guy for so long, she’d become a bit smarter herself.
"Yes, from the very beginning, I liked... you," Easton Holmes deliberately dragged his voice like this, with such an ambiguous tone.
Lily Turner initially didn’t catch it, but when she saw his mischievous look, she immediately reacted and swung her hand at his arm, "You’re the most annoying. I’m talking seriously with you, and can you stop being so unserious all the time?"
He’s always this unserious in front of her. Over the years, she’s become used to his unseriousness and doesn’t blush anymore.
"Why be so serious in front of your wife?" Easton Holmes leaned over and stole a kiss on Lily Turner’s cheek, then quickly sat back upright before she could explode.
Starting the engine, he drove away from the Turner Family home.
When Lily Turner and Easton Holmes got home, Athena Linton had already returned to her room, and Amelia Linton had also gone to her room to soothe the three children with the nanny. Only Callix Linton, Michael Linton, and Serena Zimmerman were left in the living room.
Seeing the two walk in, the three looked over at them.
"How is Heath? Is he alright?" Callix Linton asked before the two even approached.
"Heath is fine, Grandpa, don’t worry," Lily Turner went over to sit beside Serena Zimmerman and, after sitting down, wrapped her arm around Serena Zimmerman’s arm, "Auntie!"
She wanted to comfort her with a few words, but she didn’t know what to say.
That girl, although she was the perpetrator of this incident, was also a victim of it.
"I’m fine."
Lily Turner’s worry was written all over her face, and Serena Zimmerman saw it at a glance. She raised a hand to pat the hand wrapped around her arm, telling Lily she was fine and not to worry about her.
