Chapter 43

After hearing Ellie’s words, Aidan Lucas’ handsome face was covered with frost: “The Lucas family can’t tolerate servants who dare to deceive their master. Dismiss those two and gather everyone in the restaurant.”

Ellie responded nervously and was about to deal with the issue when she suddenly remembered that Lily Gray was still in the room.

“Young Master, what about the Young Lady…”

“Bring the key.”

With Aidan’s permission, Ellie finally dared to fetch the key.

She handed over the key and hurried downstairs to deal with the two troublemakers.

Meanwhile, Aidan inserted the key into the lock, and the closed guestroom door was instantly opened.

Lily Gray was obviously in the room, but she hadn’t come out to open the door.

Aidan had considered many scenarios, but he hadn’t expected that when he walked in, he would see a woman wrapped in a blanket like a caterpillar on the bed.

What was she doing?

Aidan’s eyebrows raised slightly as he walked towards the bed.

When he got closer, he noticed that the woman wrapped in the blanket was actually sleeping soundly.

The warm-colored light shone on her charming face. She was wrapped tightly in the blanket, with only her palm-sized face exposed.

Without a word, Aidan looked around and saw her inseparable black-framed glasses resting securely on the nightstand.

Underneath the cabinet, her obvious underwear caught Aidan’s attention as he narrowed his eyes.

Leaning down to look at the peacefully sleeping Lily Gray, he braced his hands on either side of her.

The woman wrapped in the blanket remained still. She had experienced too much today, which was why he had let her come up to take a bath after returning to the villa.

He had simply wanted her to take a bath and then relax for a while.

At dinner time, he would naturally have someone call her down.

However, he hadn’t expected the servants in the villa to misunderstand his intentions, bringing her to this room and providing her with such clothing.

His almond-shaped eyes stared at the sleeping woman, his gaze traveling from her captivating peach blossom like eyes to her upturned cherry lips.

He bent down, unable to resist kissing her delicate cherry lips, taking advantage of her sleepy state to taste her sweetness.

“Mmm, Peter… stop it…” Lily Gray instinctively wanted to push away the annoying dream disruptor with her hands.

However, since she was not wearing clothes inside, she had intentionally wrapped herself tightly with the blanket before sleeping. At this moment, wanting to stretch out her hand to slap away the annoying person, she was restrained by the blanket, unable to exert any strength.

Upon hearing the woman’s soft, tender voice, Aidan’s deep, ink-like eyes flashed with coldness.

“Who is Peter? Your past lover?”

Had she actually been “awakened” like this by another man before?

“Mmm, Peter… Peter is…” Lily Gray was already slowly waking up, answering Aidan’s question, but when she opened her eyes, she saw the familiar, albeit blurred, handsome face.

“You… ah, what are you doing here?” She was immediately startled awake and instinctively tried to back away, but she couldn’t move at all.

Of course, she couldn’t move. She had wrapped herself with the blanket before sleeping, and Aidan was now pressing down on the blanket with his elbows, his entire body leaning on her. At this moment, Lily Gray was like a pupa. If Aidan didn’t let go, she wouldn’t be able to get out at all.

This was what it meant to be trapped in one’s own web; Lily Gray had learned her lesson today.

“Tell me, who is Peter?” Aidan ignored her question and pressed her even tighter.

Both their noses touched slightly, and his handsome features were right before her eyes.

Although she couldn’t see clearly, she could feel the dangerous aura emanating from him all over..
