Chapter 1356: Chapter 1353: Love has its order, why is he the one who comes late? (Extra 1)

“I…” Lily watched him blankly, her beautiful eyes flickering fearfully.

“I didn’t lie to you…really didn’t lie to you…” she tried to explain.

She was just too scared, too terrified.

She just couldn’t accept Aidan Lucas’s proximity at the moment, no matter which of his personalities it was.

Stripping off her clothes and interrogating her like this was just too cruel for her.

“No, Lily…I know everything now…”

The crimson in Aidan Lucas’s eyes faded, and the frigid air on his face was also retracted.

Those cold, indifferent eyes surprisingly showed a hint of warmth.

Aidan Lucas reached out, and as soon as he touched Lily’s body, she couldn’t help but shiver.

He said softly, “Good girl, don’t be afraid, I’ll help you get dressed.”

“No, no need…I can do it myself…”

Before she had finished speaking, the man’s slender fingers touched the back of her neck, pressing and kneading with a gentle firmness.

His other hand took advantage of her momentary daze to pull up the clothes that he had torn off.

Aidan Lucas’s movements were tender, as if he was handling the most treasured possession.

“Aidan Lucas…” Lily looked at him, puzzled, not understanding why the man suddenly seemed like a different person.

He had just been questioning her with such a ferocious and frightening expression.

She thought he believed all her words to be lies, so why did he suddenly stand down and stop pressuring her?

Without a word, Aidan Lucas slowly helped Lily put on all her clothes, which finally brought a bit of peace to her anxious heart.

Then, Aidan Lucas knelt in front of her, so he was at eye-level with Lily, who sat on the bed.

“Lily…there’s a question I’ve been wanting to ask you.” His slender fingers gently held onto Lily’s hands.

If one did not know the fierce argument that had just occurred between them, they might look like a couple drenched in the sweetest affection.

Aidan Lucas looked into Lily’s eyes, his gaze deep.

“The books say love is neither right nor wrong. So tell me…does love have a sequence of first and last?”

“…”

Lily hadn’t expected Aidan Lucas to ask this.

Her peach blossom eyes, still moist with water, blinked in surprise, and she suddenly realized what Aidan Lucas was asking.

Her throat inexplicably went dry, and Lily almost couldn’t bring herself to tell him the answer.

She knew, of course, love did have a sequence of first and last…

Seeing Lily staring at him in a daze, her lips parting then closing, her obvious hesitation to speak, Aidan Lucas couldn’t help but sneer internally. His Lily, indeed, was not good at lying.

The man’s large hand suddenly landed on Lily’s head.

Aidan Lucas gently rubbed the top of her head and said with a light laugh, “Alright, you don’t have to say it.”

He already knew.

Of course, love had a sequence of first and last, and he was the one who had arrived late.

Indeed, why was it him who was late?

“Heh…” His thin lips curved up, revealing a self-mocking smile.

Suddenly he leaned in and kissed Lily on the lips.

A gentle kiss, no longer as fervent and passionate as before, carrying a hint of bittersweetness.

At this moment, Aidan Lucas finally understood.

So this was the taste of love.

“Aidan…” As his cool lips left hers, Lily couldn’t help but call out to him.

She suddenly felt an illusion

As if something very important was being stripped away from the depths of her heart.

“Not enough for you, wanting more of my kisses, hmm?” he teased, the bitterness in his eyes concealed by a mischievous jest.

Lily immediately shook her head, covering her mouth.

Aidan Lucas smiled without a word, rubbed her head again, and stood up.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you out of here.”

“I…I don’t want to…”

“I won’t let you stay out there on your own. If you’re unwilling to go back with me, I’ll take you to Sadie’s.”

Between the Lucas family and Sadie’s place, Lily of course chose the latter.

Unable to argue with Aidan Lucas, she could only follow him as they left.
