With the multiple folds down below, it is quite heavy.<\/p>\n<p>Noticing her small waist, one servant brings Lily a corset, which makes Lily&#8217;s face turn pale. She refuses immediately, adjusts her dress slightly, runs away in a hurry.<\/p>\n<p>The corset will put an end to her baby!<\/p>\n<p>Coming out of her bedroom, Lily finds that the space on the second floor is so huge that one can&#8217;t see either end of the corridor.<\/p>\n<p>She relaxes her weak feet and turns left along the corridor.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Why all big shots with few children would like to live in such a gigantic house?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Lily talks to herself while her gaze sweeps across the paintings on the wall. Apart from the resplendent collections from the Renaissance, she also finds a dozen pieces of portraits.<\/p>\n<p>She sees at first two little boys, one tall and the other short. In the paintings, they are either playing or reading. Then she finds a blue-eyed boy with black hair drawn in the rest of paintings who becomes better-looking as he grows up.<\/p>\n<p>Lily recognizes that the boy with black hair and blue eyes is John, so she takes the other boy in the paintings as Jonathan.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ms. Lily, are you interested in oil paintings?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Opposite to Lily, Jonathan suddenly appears and interrupts her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, not like that. I find these painters extremely talented.&#8221; Lily glances at him and then turns to the paintings again, &#8220;Every painting is fascinating.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan seems to snort as he walks towards Lily. His gaze is cold and hard, but he still maintains his dignity.<\/p>\n<p>He drawls, &#8220;Rumor has it that Mr. Smith went to the hotel to pick up his sister and shot you. After all, she is your so-called sister-in-law. Aren&#8217;t you worried about her? Shouldn\u2019t you go back to comfort her?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There\u2019s just the two of us, you don&#8217;t need to put on airs.&#8221; Lily is calm, ignoring his provocation, &#8220;Mr. Smith is there for her, I have nothing to worry about, not to mention. I don\u2019t need to go back. Furthermore, I have more important things to do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Like what?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily looks at him, and her red lips curve up, &#8220;Your strong interest in games manages to arouse mine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She is calm, completely different from that furious woman on the phone yesterday. &#8216;She ignores, even despises me!&#8217; this thought exasperates Jonathan.<\/p>\n<p>His expression becomes a little ferocious, and he smashes her against the wall by grabbing her shoulders.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t you think you can make a change together with that little bastard?&#8221; Jonathan turns sinister as he inches closer to her, &#8220;I&#8217;ve already set rules for this game. How to play this game, it&#8217;s up to me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, he feels on his neck a chill, even a tingling.<\/p>\n<p>Lily raises her right fist. A thin needle from the ring on her ring finger is being held beside Jonathan&#8217;s neck and can pierce into his skin with a slight movement.<\/p>\n<p>Lily looks up at him and warns, &#8220;Don&#8217;t blame me for being impolite if you call him little bastard again! You also know that your father favors John, and I am John&#8217;s girlfriend. Imagine, you faint, I take you into my room, take off your clothes, then we lie on the bed together. What comes next when your father sees that?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ms. Lily would like to sacrifice yourself for justice!&#8221; Jonathan presses her shoulder more heavily.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just a lesson from you.&#8221; Lily smiles, &#8220;I&#8217;m stupid. I am no match for you, Mr. Seles. You plotted to steal John&#8217;s connections long ago.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After a pause, she continues, &#8220;But in our country, there is a saying, that is, every dog has its day; and the game is not under your control now, as the rules have been changed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan narrows his eyes and threatens, &#8220;Ms. Lily, don&#8217;t you care about your family, your sister?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily panics for a second and calms herself down quickly, &#8220;People won&#8217;t fall at the same spot twice. Since I dare to come to Country Y with John, I must have made good arrangement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Are you sure?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Didn&#8217;t I tell you not to go to the kitchen?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s fine. I sent servants away and went to the kitchen to cook it by myself.&#8221; John hands her a silver fork. &#8220;No Chinese food here, so there are no chopsticks. Try this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily takes the bowl and starts to eat. The food makes her stomach feel comfortable, &#8220;Jonathan won&#8217;t know it, will he?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>John shakes his head, &#8220;No, his room is at the other end of the corridor. He seldom comes out at night. No worry. I&#8217;m sorry for asking you to come Country Y with me, then you have to suffer all these.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m fine, don&#8217;t keep apologizing.&#8221; Lily feels perplexed about his regrets, &#8220;You saved me and my child. Without you, my baby would have already been gone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>John says, &#8220;Have you taken pills?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No. I was too sleepy and fell into sleep immediately.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Figuring out where her pills are, John brings her another glass of water and pills, &#8220;Not many pills left. I&#8217;ll try to get some from the hospital later.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you want to do an antenatal care to check if babies are healthy?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily hesitates for a moment before shaking her head resolutely, &#8220;No, Jonathan has too many spies. There is not much time for us to regain the qualification as a successor. I believe my babies will be fine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hearing these words, John does not try to persuade her again.<\/p>\n<p>After Lily takes the pills, he leaves her room with the bowl.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps because she is too tired and too sleepy, Lily no longer has nightmares as she did a few days ago, and wakes up again the next day at noon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2308","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2308","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2308"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
