Chapter 285: Chapter 285 I Am Very Angry Right Now
Hearing the phone ring in his pocket, Easton Holmes immediately thought it was from Lily Turner, who was rushing home. The unexpected call brought him back to cold and rational calm.
He withdrew his outstretched fist and took out the buzzing phone from his pocket.
As he had guessed, the call was from her. He answered, "Just stay home and wait for me. I’ll be back soon."
Easton didn’t let Lily speak first, nor did he intend to let her say anything. After his words, he was about to hang up, but he heard her say from the other end, "If you’re busy, come back in the evening."
After rushing home, Lily searched all over but couldn’t find any trace of Easton. She thought he had gotten anxious waiting for her and went to the Military Department.
Initially not intending to disturb his important work, she worried he might get angry, so she called him, wanting to explain briefly over the phone.
How things would develop, she would think of a way to solve it later.
What Lily didn’t expect was that her call distracted Easton, allowing Grant Heath to escape a predicament.
"No matter how busy I am, I have to go home to my wife."
This time, Easton didn’t give Lily another chance to speak. After finishing, he immediately hung up, not caring what she might think on the other end.
"For my wife’s sake, I won’t hold it against you today." Easton glanced at Grant Heath in the car, then bypassed the car and strode toward the gate of the compound.
Although his back was turned to the car behind him, he knew that Grant Heath in the car was glaring at him defiantly.
Under Grant Heath’s defiant gaze, Easton walked into the compound with composure and forgot what had happened earlier, striding quickly towards his home.
Meanwhile, Lily was standing on the second-floor terrace, daydreaming while looking at the gate. Her mind and heart were in chaos, yet she couldn’t calm herself.
From afar, Easton saw Lily leaning against the railing, daydreaming. His steps unconsciously quickened, and as he walked into the yard, he raised his head and waved to her on the terrace.
"Hey! Falling asleep!"
Hearing Easton’s voice, Lily snapped out of her thoughts and realized he had already entered the yard. She quickly straightened up and turned to go downstairs to see him.
When Lily ran downstairs, Easton was about to go upstairs to find her. Seeing her panting and running down, he couldn’t help but tease with a laugh, "You were that eager to see me, huh."
As he spoke, he took a big step forward and immediately reached out his long arm to pull her into his embrace.
"You, are you not angry with me?"
Seeing Easton could still talk to her with a smile, Lily thought he might not be angry. She blurted out the question.
Hearing this, Easton quickly put away his smile, feigning anger with a stern face, "Who said I’m not angry with you? I’m really angry now. Be honest, why did you lie to me today?"
She said she was visiting her parents, but he just went to her parents’ house to find her, and the housekeeper said she hadn’t gone there at all. It turned out she was with that man named Grant.
"I lied to you? How did I lie to you?"
Seeing Easton suddenly change his expression, Lily didn’t react at first, furrowing her brow in confusion.
