Chapter 337: Faye Turner Only Wants to Protect Her Family
Faye Turner listened to these words and felt as if a little flower of happiness blossomed in her heart.
She was very well-behaved, not clingy at all.
Adrian Lancaster patted her head, "You rest early, I’ll go work in the study for a while."
"Okay." She wrapped her arms around his waist, stood on tiptoe to plant a light kiss on his cheek, then quickly released him, waving smilingly, "Go on, go on!"
Adrian Lancaster nodded and turned to leave the bedroom.
Once his back disappeared at the doorway, she put away the smile on her face.
Returning to the study, as he closed the door, the warmth on Adrian Lancaster’s face gradually faded away.
He didn’t sit at the desk to work but went to the window, looking out with deep-set eyes.
The image that came to mind was Sienna at the company entrance tonight, dressed the same as in high school.
And the things she said when she stopped him, "Adrian, I was diagnosed with cancer back then, that’s why I told you I fell in love with someone else."
Every time he thought of those words, there was a noticeable tugging pain at his heart!
"Adrian, I don’t want you to resent me anymore... I didn’t do it on purpose." She was pitiful, eyes brimming with tears, "After years of treatment, I’ve recovered, and I wanted to tell you the truth."
"Seeing you again felt like it was forever... I was truly moved." She still remembered his promise.
As Adrian Lancaster recalled the things she said, his emotions became somewhat unsettled.
He also felt some regret, realizing he was too consumed with resentment and sadness back then to seek the truth.
The girl he once loved deeply, at her most difficult time when she needed him the most, he wasn’t by her side.
Letting her fight the illness alone, even thinking about it now made Adrian Lancaster feel sad.
However, it’s fortunate that she’s physically recovered now, having conquered the illness.
That night, he was sleepless.
Under the warm yellow lights of the master bedroom, on the spacious, soft double bed, Faye Turner lay sideways, with her hand around his waist.
But uncontrollably, his mind was filled with Sienna.
At the same time, Adrian Lancaster clearly knew that what’s missed is missed.
Fate was shallow, it was shallow fate.
He couldn’t selfishly let down Faye Turner, especially since she was pregnant, as a man, he had to be responsible.
These past days, he’s been living with such a contradiction.
He wasn’t wavering between two women, but rather his own guilt towards Sienna, which often made him feel uneasy.
And while Faye Turner knew that Sienna had appeared, Adrian Lancaster didn’t know she already knew.
At this time, in The Lockwood Old Manor.
A man approached Eliza Hayes, as usual reporting Adrian Lancaster’s recent updates; she wasn’t interested in the work details or the projects.
But when his former girlfriend Sienna Dawson was mentioned, along with the classmates’ reunion a few days ago, something flashed in Eliza Hayes’s eyes.
The middle-aged woman lifted her chest slightly, "Are you sure?"
"Absolutely sure," the man reported, "It’s said that she left back then because she was terminally ill."
Eliza Hayes furrowed her brows at him, "Then why is she suddenly appearing now and telling Adrian Lancaster these things, what for?"
The man wasn’t sure, thought for a moment, and speculated, "Maybe... she wants to return to his side? After all, there’s no woman who wouldn’t want to get close to President Lancaster, young and wealthy as he is, not to mention she holds some emotional advantage as a former girlfriend?"
This conclusion made Eliza Hayes quite happy.
Mrs. Lancaster can be anyone, but not the medically knowledgeable Faye Turner.
Remembering the Taoist priest’s words again, she became rather disdainful, ha! Destiny is in her hands, and the future of the Lancaster Family lies in hers, Eliza Hayes’s!
Eliza Hayes smiled, with interest, "Help me contact this girl, I want to meet her."
