Lily knew exactly what Simon and John wanted-to see her beg, to see her grovel, to see her admit guilt in front
of Elsa.
But she hadn’t done anything wrong. Why the hell should she apologize?
The commotion Simon caused was loud enough that John quickly noticed.
In John’s mind, Lily was still his woman. No matter how unforgivable her actions might be, he didn’t want Simon
laying a hand on her.
And yet, looking at her so defiant, so proud, so unrepentant, he forced himself to ignore the pain in his chest and
watched with cold eyes.
He was waiting-for her to cave, to admit fault, to beg him to save her.
“Letgo! | need to get back and get the evidence!”
Lily was furious. She raised her hand and slapped Simon across the face.
Simon froze.
He couldn't believe she’d actually dare to hit him again.
But in that moment, he also got a clear look at her.
Her face was flushed from lack of oxygen, but she still looked deathly pale. Her left arm was bleeding. The fabric
around her lower leg was soaked through with red.
Clearly, she was injured too.
A sharp wave of pain burst in his chest, uncontrollable and immediate-and his grip on her eased just slightly.
But then he remembered: this woman had hurt someone. She had struck him.
And yet he still felt sorry for her?
He hated himself for it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, as if to prove to himself that he didn’t care, he tightened his grip-harder than before, like he was ready to
snap her neck.

Lily still hadn't returned to the Luke family estate, and Grace was getting anxious.
She had just been about to ask James to go find her when Ivan spotted the headline online-Lily drunk

And now, seeing Simon nearly choke Lily to death, Ivan panicked and sprinted over. “Are you out of your damn
mind?! What the hell are you doing to Lily?! Aren't you afraid my brother's gonna break your legs?!”
Huh?
John’s eyes snapped up.
Did he just call...?
Victor, the second Luke son, was buried in research. He hadn't been hsince Lily and James registered their
marriage.
The Luke family cared deeply for Lily.
Tonight, everyone but Victor had cto the hospital.
John’s bloodshot eyes scanned Grace's face.
She and Lily were the only women in the room besides his own mother.
Ivan would never call either of them “sister-in-law.”
And Elsa? That was out of the question.
That only left Lily.
So Ivan was calling Lily “sister-in-law*“?
But Lily was his girlfriend. His woman. Why the hell would Ivan call her that?
Had Ivan lost his damn mind?
Elsa's face went stiff.
She hadn’t wanted John to find out that Lily and James had already gotten their marriage certificate.
She was scared he’d go nuts trying to win Lily back-scared he'd leave her side for good.
But then she remembered: Lily’s reputation was toast after this whole drunk-driving incident. Whether it was
John, Simon, or even James, none of them would want her anymore.
With that in mind, she calmed down.
Simon was using way too much force. Ivan, worried about hurting Lily, didn’t dare yank too hard. He | couldn't
pull Simon away.
Panic rising, he yelled again, “Let her go, bro! She’s your sister-in-law!”
James’ brow furrowed slightly.

marfied™there Sas no point hiding it.
So he didn’t scold Ivan.
Instead, his gaze landed on Lily-and he finally took in how she looked.
Her face twisted in pain.
Red marks were blooming across her throat from Simon's grip.
Blood was still seeping from the wound on her left arm, and it looked raw and messy.
Her pant leg was soaked through-her leg was clearly injured too.
James’ frown deepened.
He wasn’t sure why, but he found the sight of all that blood oddly unpleasant.
Everything about her current state bothered him.
