Chapter 556: Chapter 559: The New First Lady Looks Familiar

Seeing that Lily Gray wasn’t talking, Ellie worried that she might be bored and turned on the television for her.

“Maybe you could watch some television, Young Lady… I’ll be free soon, and then we can go for a walk. Pregnant women need to move around more, and getting some fresh air will stop you from feeling…”

Ellie didn’t finish her sentence, as her attention was suddenly drawn to the television screen.

Lily heard Ellie stop talking suddenly and thought it was strange, so she looked up at her.

She saw Ellie staring wide-eyed at the television screen, looking astonished.

What on earth could have shocked Ellie so much?

What did she see…?

Lily, suspicious, also looked at the television and saw that it was showing ordinary domestic news.

A few days earlier, Eastonia’s new president had taken office.

The television was showing a scene from a reception dinner for the president and the First Lady.

The camera followed the steps of the president and the First Lady.

Lily noticed that the First Lady seemed quite young compared to the president who was in his forties or fifties.

She looked like she was only in her early twenties.

Not only that, the First Lady had an elegant figure and was stunningly beautiful.

Even through the television screen, she was astonishingly gorgeous.

Especially her beautiful, soul-stealing eyes.

Lily even felt that those beautiful almond-shaped eyes seemed very familiar to her.

She couldn’t help but say softly, “Ellie, why does the First Lady look so familiar? It’s like I’ve seen her somewhere before…”

Upon hearing her words, Ellie was so startled that she almost dropped the remote control.

“Ah, nowadays television is so boring, flipping channels only to find news. Not interesting at all…” Ellie pretended not to hear what Lily was saying.

After flipping through several channels and only seeing news broadcasts, she simply turned off the television.

“Young Lady, why don’t we go for a walk now? The weather is nice, perfect for a stroll,” Ellie suggested.

“Didn’t you just say you were busy?” Lily asked.

“No matter, no matter… I can delegate those tasks to others. You wait, I’ll get you an overcoat, and then we’ll head out…”

Ellie didn’t give Lily any chance to refuse and took her out directly.

As for Lily, she naturally forgot about the First Lady she’d just seen on television.

On the other side, David Redington was also turning off the television at that moment.

“Young Master.” Blake walked over, waiting for his command.

David frowned and thought for a moment before saying, “Let Winston come back and send him to protect Lily.”

“Young Master, the Lucas family has already sent enough people to protect Miss Gray. It may not be good for us to involve Winston.”

Moreover, it was a coincidence that Winston had saved Lily last time.

Asking him to kill was one thing, but protecting someone was quite difficult for him.

“No need to inform the Lucas family, just let Winston protect her in secret.” David looked at the now dark television screen, his lips slightly pressed together.

“Aidan Lucas will be in trouble soon. When that time comes, he won’t be able to protect himself, let alone Lily’s child. We must send someone to watch over her.”

Blake knew that there was no point in persuading him further, so he reluctantly agreed and went to inform Winston.

As for David, his frown grew deeper.

Lily Gray… you must take good care of yourself and the child in your belly, you can’t let anything happen!
