Ranaway From Wedding, Fell into Tycoon's Love Trap-Chapter 83: Do Your Family Members Know How Scheming You Are?
Chapter 83 - 83: Do Your Family Members Know How Scheming You Are?
"Did you call me?"
Lily Turner asked knowingly, even though the message in the phone clearly stated that he had called her that night. She couldn't help but ask anyway.
Upon hearing this, Easton Holmes turned his head to glance at the woman who was obviously aware, "You've seen it, haven't you?"
"Have you been busy these days?"
Lily hesitated for a moment before voicing the question in her mind. She had sent him a message three days ago asking him to call back, but he only called today. She wasn't trying to interrogate him; she was just curious if he hadn't used his phone at all these past three days.
"I went out for a military exercise, didn't bring my phone."
A week ago, Easton had led his elite team to a military exercise with another unit. Before departure, everyone, including him, handed in their phones to be kept at the base.
After the exercise ended and he returned to the base, the first thing he saw when he turned on his phone was the message she had sent him.
As he was wondering what urgent matter she had, Luke Crowe rushed into his office, looking anxious with a tablet in hand.
At that moment, he found out that rumors on the internet claimed she was being kept by a mysterious investor — him.
Immediately, he instructed Luke to call her boss and inquire about the rumors, and he also asked Luke to subtly check on her situation.
Upon learning that she was filming here, his legs seemed to move of their own accord, taking him away from the base, driving straight here.
After hearing Easton's explanation, the doubts in Lily's heart were instantly cleared. Afraid he might get angry, she decided not to bring up the house matter first; she would wait until he took her to the place before mentioning it.
Glancing at the man driving, she dialed Helena's number.
"Lily!" After the phone rang twice, Helena answered.
"Helena! My family just called saying there's an urgent issue at home. I have to go back now, but rest assured, I'll be at the set on time tomorrow." Lily said a lot in one breath, not giving Helena a chance to speak again. She continued, "That's it, I'm hanging up!"
With that, she hung up the phone without caring about the reaction on the other end.
After hanging up, Lily turned again to look at the man driving, "Now can you tell me where we are going?"
Being taken out by a man late at night made her a bit anxious; this man was not to be underestimated.
"Didn't you just say you had urgent matters at home and needed to go back?" Easton didn't directly answer Lily's question but echoed her words.
At this, Lily immediately rolled her eyes at him, "Wasn't it you who told me to say that just now?"
Wait a minute! Why did she follow his words just now and say there was an urgent matter at home? Wasn't that inviting trouble to her family?
"The point now is not who told you to say it, but that you've already said it." Easton kept his eyes on the road ahead, but he could sense Lily's dissatisfaction with him, though he pretended not to notice.
Hearing this, Lily glared at Easton indignantly, "Mr. Holmes! Do your parents know how devious you are?" freёnovelkiss.com
Easton merely turned his head to glance at Lily expressionlessly, without responding to her indignation, looking somewhat displeased.
