NovelBookChapter 379 A Clean Break
Hearing Ivan’s voice trembling with tears, Lily couldn't help but get misty-eyed too.
She really did love the Luke family.
And she hated the thought of leaving them.
If James hadn't been so against her-if he'd just been willing to give the baby she was carrying a chance, if he
hadn’t been so determined to get divorced-she never would have chosen to walk away.
But if he ever found out she was pregnant, he would get rid of the baby.
He couldn’t accept women.
Staying by his side would only make him hate her more.
She didn’t want to return kindness with resentment.
After a long silence, her eyes still red, she shook her head. “James and | aren't right for each other.”
“Lily...”
James could tell she didn’t want to make things difficult for Ivan. Before his brother could say another word, he
cut in coldly, “I was the one who insisted on the divorce.”
The truth was, he didn’t only like men.
He had just mistakenly thought Leila was a man and assumed that meant he was into men.
But to completely kill off any hope his family had of pairing him up with Lily, he still said, “I like men. | can’t
accept women. There's no point in dragging this out and wasting Lily’s life. Lily, didn’t you say you wanted to
travel? Go upstairs and pack-I'll take you to the airport.”
“Oh, for god's sake...”
That damn kid was saying he liked men again-couldn’t accept women again...
Henry clutched his chest in outrage and collapsed onto the couch.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrace was so mad she could barely breathe.
Seriously, her eldest grandson was handsome, upright, full of masculine charm-he didn’t look like he bent that
way at all. How could he be so dead set on only being with men?
Two men cuddling and whispering sweet nothings to each other... what kind of nonsense was that?
Just imagining her grandson, freed from his marriage to Lily, throwing himself into the arms of sman out
there-Grace felt like life had lost all meaning. She clutched her chest and flopped beside Henry, half-dead from
frustration.
After hearing James's declaration, Blanc and Nancy were so angry they didn’t even want to speak.

They'd just started to let themselves hope their eldest son and Lily might have a happy future together.
But clearly, that was just their wishful thinking.
James had bent so far that he was beyond saving. It looked like they were fated to end up with a son-in-law
instead of a daughter-in-law.
The thought that James might bring a man hany day now-holding hands, kissing in front of them- left them
both mentally exhausted and completely drained.
Ivan still couldn’t accept reality.
He sniffled and asked James, “Can’t you just try to change and like women instead? | really don’t want a brother-
in-law...”
“Shut up.”
James had no intention of marrying a man either.
He was already in a bad mood from the divorce, and Ivan’s whining only made him more irritable. He shoved his
brother's hand away coldly and urged Lily again, “Go pack.”
Lily had wanted to say a proper goodbye to Grace and the others. She had so much left she wanted to tell them.
She hoped they would keep eating well, taking care of their health, and staying happy every day.
But it was obvious James didn’t want her staying in Luke’s house another minute. So she obediently went
upstairs to pack.
“You little punk, you're just-"
Blanc shot James a disgusted glare.
He still had his slipper in hand.

But just thinking about the possibility of a son-in-law calling him “Dad” made him too angry to even muster the
energy to hit his son.
“Forget it, let Lily go clear her head.”
Nancy exhaled deeply and finally
decided to accept the truth. “If little

“Sigh.”
Grace and Henry heaved a heavy sigh together.
After that, they both gave a small nod, agreeing with their daughter-in-law.
James didn't want to hear any more

Lily hadn't expected him to come. Her heart skipped a beat.
Clearly, he was here to make sure | packed quickly.
Was he really that eager to seeout of Luke’s house?
