Chapter 1069: That Man Is Thomas Fisher
As Lily Turner spoke, Christopher Turner and Sophia Wood both looked at her, but their expressions were different.
Seeing her parents both looking at her, Lily suddenly realized what she had just said and quickly began to explain: "Alice is so capable and beautiful. I believe there will definitely be a better man who genuinely likes her."
That better man had already appeared, but she couldn’t tell them about it yet.
Hearing Lily’s explanation, the light that had just appeared in Christopher’s eyes suddenly dimmed. Just now, he thought Alice had found that better man, but it turned out to be his own misunderstanding.
"She won’t find a better man again." In Christopher’s eyes, no man was better than Benjamin Shaw, who was now his son-in-law. He believed Alice wouldn’t find another man as good as Benjamin in her lifetime.
Thinking of how Alice didn’t know how to cherish Benjamin, Christopher was very angry, but since the man was already chased away by him, he couldn’t vent his anger on the mother and daughter in front of him.
After glancing at the mother and daughter, he got up and left the living room, going outside for some fresh air. He didn’t want to suffocate to death by staying inside.
Hearing Christopher close the door and leave, Sophia moved closer to Lily, "Did you just lie to your dad? Has your sister already found the man who truly loves her?"
She saw clearly earlier that her daughter’s eyes were dodging when she spoke.
"I didn’t..."
"Speak the truth. I won’t tell your dad."
Sophia interrupted Lily’s denial directly because as a mother, she could tell if her daughter was lying.
Staring at her mom for a while, Lily slowly nodded, "Mom! Please don’t tell anyone else. Alice has just divorced, and it wouldn’t be good for her if others found out so soon."
She anxiously reminded her mom to keep this matter a secret.
"What’s that man’s name? And what does he do?" Sophia asked eagerly, pulling Lily to inquire further.
"That man is Thomas Fisher!"
"Thomas Fisher? Why does that name sound so familiar?"
Sophia found the name Thomas Fisher very familiar, but for the moment she couldn’t recall who he was, although she was sure she had heard the name before.
Seeing her mom looking puzzled, Lily explained, "You’ve met him. On the day of mine and Easton’s wedding, he was one of Easton’s best friends."
She helped her mom remember, her eyes quietly observing if her mom could recall anything at all.
"I remember now, that Thomas Fisher is the man who went to a restaurant with your sister that day." Hearing Lily’s explanation, Sophia remembered who Thomas Fisher was and, knowing that Thomas and Benjamin Shaw were good friends, she suddenly became tense, "Your sister and he..."
Now, it wasn’t necessary to know how they got together, but she was really worried about the situation they would face in the future.
Sophia’s worry was shared by Lily too. She could foresee some of the situations Alice and Thomas would face, and precisely because she could anticipate the future, she couldn’t help but worry.
