Chapter 301: Chapter 301: Doing What I Should Do
Just as the two were about to lose control, Easton Holmes’ phone suddenly started buzzing, but he acted as if he hadn’t heard it, continuing to kiss the woman in his arms with determination.
Lily Turner pushed him hard with both hands, but with her mouth blocked, she couldn’t speak, so she could only use this method to remind him to answer the phone.
After a few pushes without any response, she had to reach under his armpits to tickle him.
"Pfft!"
Easton Holmes couldn’t resist and burst out laughing when Lily Turner tickled him.
Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, she pushed him away with all her strength, breaking free from his embrace. Without daring to pause, she turned around and ran out of the room.
This girl! She actually thought of using such a method to stop him.
Watching her hurriedly run out the door, Easton Holmes’ lips curved into a barely noticeable smile. By this time, his phone had stopped ringing.
But it didn’t stay quiet for long, as his phone started buzzing again.
Easton Holmes withdrew his gaze from the doorway and took out the phone that wouldn’t stop buzzing from his pocket.
As he looked at the caller ID, just as he had predicted, it was a call from his good friend, Ryan Taylor.
If his prediction was correct, his good friend was calling about the gathering tonight.
That kid really couldn’t keep his mouth shut, barely leaving here before he had to spill the beans.
"Why did it take so long to answer the phone? What were you doing just now?" As the call was about to hang up automatically, Easton Holmes answered, but the person on the other end didn’t give him a chance to speak first.
"Doing what I should be doing."
Easton Holmes wasn’t afraid of Ryan Taylor’s playful teasing and replied frankly.
Since Easton Holmes spoke so candidly, Ryan Taylor couldn’t quite tell where Easton Holmes was at the moment. Before making the call, influenced by Thomas Fisher’s words, he had thought Easton Holmes was at home.
But now, he was really unsure.
"I didn’t interrupt you, did I?"
Ryan Taylor put away his teasing tone and became more serious.
"What do you think?"
Over the phone, Easton Holmes clearly felt the change in Ryan Taylor’s tone. After pausing for a moment, he continued to ask, "You called me for something?"
He seemed to be asking knowingly, and his tone was so natural.
"So, can you talk now?"
Ryan Taylor wasn’t sure where Easton Holmes was or what he was doing, and he didn’t dare to speak as casually as he did before, not wanting to disturb his good brother’s work.
"Go ahead, I’m very available right now."
Easton Holmes was worried that if he didn’t clearly express himself, his good brother on the other end might hang up the phone.
Hearing this, Ryan Taylor let out a relieved breath, but he didn’t speak immediately. After a pause, he said, "I heard from Thomas that you’re not planning to bring your wife out tonight? The three of us just want to congratulate you two, not to drink you into oblivion."
When he heard Thomas Fisher say that Easton Holmes didn’t intend to bring Lily Turner out tonight, Ryan Taylor immediately thought of that time they ran into Lily at the bar. He naturally assumed Easton was worried they would pressure the couple to drink.
"Lily, her health isn’t in a condition to go out to parties or anything right now." Going out would inevitably lead to his good brothers pressuring them to drink. They’re currently trying to have a baby, so he can’t let anything happen to her. Easton Holmes straightforwardly expressed his refusal.
