Lily hated riddles. If something bothered her, she asked directly.
“James, Jack isn’t a puppy. What nonsense are you imagining?”
“He is the puppy!”

Even with her in his arms, James's mind was still drowning in jealousy, remembering the social media posts
Jackson had made back when he was pretending to be her fiancé.
“He called himself your puppy back then. He even posted about it on purpose.”
Lily blinked, recalling the tbefore their divorce, when James had lost his temper after she’d murmured
“puppy.”
So he'd thought, all this time, that the puppy she spoke of was Jackson?
This misunderstanding was massive.
Looking at the sulky man in front of her, she found him ridiculously childish.
But what could she do? Even when he was childish, she still adored him.
She didn’t have the heart to let him stew in doubt, so with a sigh of helpless fondness she explained, “The puppy
isn’t Jackson. In the princess room Mom gaveback at the family estate, there's a huge plush dog on the bed.
When | lived there, | always slept holding it. That's the ‘puppy’ | was talking about. If you don’t believe me, when
we go back, you can see for yourself. He's soft and adorable-you’ll like him too.”
James’s handsface flushed crimson in an instant.
He had never imagined the “puppy” was just a stuffed animal.

The jealousy evaporated, replaced by a rush of warmth that felt like spring sunlight breaking through clouds.
But even with his heart finally at ease, he still wanted to kiss her.
He held her tighter, his lips brushing hers. “Lily, | want to kiss you...”
She had already cleared up the misunderstanding, yet he still wanted a kiss?
Well, so be it.
After all, kissing wasn’t a crime. And truthfully, she loved kissing him too.
With that thought, she looped her arms around his neck and pressed her lips to his.
After parting from Lily, Adeline received a call from her mother, Hailey Lund-the woman who had given birth to
her and raised her in that poor countryside village.

Chapter 484 The Puppy Misunderstanding
When Adeline was ten, Lily had helped her escape her father, a man who valued sons and treated daughters as
nothing. Since then, she had never once contacted him.
But sometimes she still called her mother.
Because she believed Hailey loved her.

She could never forget the tshe had burned with fever as a child, kicking off her blanket in the night. Her
mother had picked it up, gently covered her, and held her hand, weeping as she whispered, “My precious girl,
you have to get better soon.”
And she could never forget the day she left that village, when her mother had pressed a crumpled fifty- dollar
note into her pocket, crying as she said, “Don’t ever cback...”
So when Hailey called now, saying she had a terminal illness and was in Capital City, begging to see her one last
time, Adeline rushed to the hotel address she gave without hesitation.
“Mom...”
But when the door opened, it wasn’t Hailey standing there.
It was two greasy, leering middle-aged men.
The hunger in their eyes told Adeline everything in an instant. She spun to leave, but it was already too late.

The two guys, Evan and Rob, looked down at her with undisguised hunger.
They'd seen her on stage before, painted and singing softly, stunningly beautiful, the kind of beauty that drove
men mad.
And now, with no makeup, she looked even more ethereal, breathtaking in a way that made their blood boil.
Evan grinned and reached down, seizing her delicate hand.
“Letgo!”
She tried to yank free, but her body was too weak. She couldn't escape his grip.
Rob bent down with a sly smirk, pinching her chin and shoving a dark pill between her lips.
