Chapter 361: No One Can Take Her Away
Just as Lily picks up the phone, trying to say something, she hears something heavy dropping on the
ground.
Then, the call is hung up.
She dials back, and only finds the other party's phone is off.
Has something happened to Little Fairy?
John comes down from upstairs and sees Lily standing in the kitchen insufficiently clothed. He brings
over a coat and tries to keep it around her. But his movement startles Lily.
John asks softly, "What happened?"
"Little Fairy's phone is off." Lily frowns, slightly upset, "A few hours ago, she called me a few times, but
my phone was on silent mode, so I didn't notice."
John comforts her, "She is Leigh's fiancée. He wants to expand his business to Asia, so he won't take
on the families in Yorkshire for no reason."
"I hope so." But it still worries her. After thinking for a while, she then calls someone, "No, I can't just let
it go. She must have something to tell me."
Today is Leigh's birthday. Jessie must be with him.
Lily waits for a long time before Leigh gets through. His voice was a little hoarse, "Hello?"
"This is Lily."
A brief silence after, Leigh asks, "Lily, what happened between you and Daniel? Did you two break up?
Where are you now? Why are you calling me?"
"Yes, we broke up. I'm working abroad now." Lily purses her lips and said lightly, "I heard that today is
your birthday. Happy birthday."
"Thank you."
She doesn't know why, but his voice leaves her an impression that Leigh is not happy.
However, his replies are very short. She can't ask further.
Lily only casually asks, "Will Mr. Smith and Daniel celebrate your birthday? Oh, and Little Fairy, isn't
she with you today? I couldn't get through to her on the phone."
"Daniel's father is injured. He has already rushed to Country XL to help." Leigh pauses and then quickly
smiles, "Little Fairy is with me now. We are going back for my party."
"Then why is her phone off?"
"Oh, her phone is dead. It's charging in my car. She went to the shop to get the cake."
Lily trusts what Leigh says.
She breathes a sigh of relief. Thinking of what Jessie told her a few hours ago, Lily continued, "She
loves you very much. I hope you guys will be fine."
Leigh seems to smile, "Of course I know she loves me."
Lily hesitates for a moment and says, "If Little Fairy does something wrong, please forgive her. I also
hope that you can help each other in the future."
"Alright, I know."
Knowing Little Fairy is fine, Lily relaxes. She can call her later. Moreover, today is Leigh's birthday.
They should have a good time. So, she ends the conversation quickly.
John stands beside her and asks, "Is she alright?"
Lily nods and smiles, "She's fine. She's on the way back with Leigh. Her phone is dead. I worry too
much."
They then go upstairs together.
For no reason, Lily holds the banisters and feels a little dizzy. She falls backwards. Fortunately, John
supports her so that she doesn't fall.
"Feeling unwell?"
"I feel a little dizzy." Lily waves her hand, trying to stand still, but her feet fail her.
Seeing this, John directly lifts her up.
Before Lily can react, John has already carried her upstairs.
They are so close that she can feel his breath, which is somewhat embarrassing.
She struggles to get up and said in low voice, "I can go myself."
"It's just a few steps away." John hugs her steadily. "You might fall again if I let go of you. Please let me
take care of you."
Hearing this, Lily stays in his arms and says no more.
Recently she always feels poor-spirited and sleepy, and sometimes dizzy. Maybe she has eaten too
little and been too tired.
Soon, John carries her into the bedroom and places her on the bed, "Would you like a glass of milk?"
Lily shakes her head, "No. You have some rest, too."
John notices her unwillingness to face him, so he has to agree.
After leaving the bedroom, the smile on his face disappears. He looks at the hands that just held her
with a mixed feeling.
What can he do to go into Lily's heart?
As soon as John returns to his bedroom, he hears the phone ringing. He quickly goes to the nightstand
and takes out his phone. Knowing who calls, he answers it.
"What is it?"
He has been in contact with Victor ever since he comes to Country F, but he doesn't tell Lily, because
he is afraid that she will leave when she knows he has help.
"Mr. Smith's sister is on flight FM 8426. She is coming."
"She probably knows something and wants to take Lily away from me." John clenches his phone
tightly. He becomes gloomy and somewhat anxious.
He knows Lily sometimes ask Coffey about the family on the phone. Chloe is his girlfriend, so he knows
clearly what Chloe comes here for.
John feels uncomfortable at the thought and said in a low voice, "Just send her back."
"The flight will arrive in several hours, so my hands are tied." Victor says, "And I can't force her. If Mr.
Smith knows that, he won't be happy. Mr. Dawn, don't annoy him, or you will lose the right of This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
inheritance to Krislier Group."
Then Victor continues, "And I find Mr. Kerr's men are also keeping an eye on Mr. Smith's sister. Maybe
Mr. Smith gave him a hard time, so he wants to take revenge on his sister."
John stops.
He almost forgets that Jonathan was going to expand his business into Country R, but he was in its
blacklist. So, he lost hundreds of millions for that. It should be Louis' doing.
John guesses that Jonathan harbors a grudge and wants to take this opportunity to put moves on
Chloe.
John could have told Victor to secretly protect her. After all, she is Lily's sister-in-law, but he just doesn't
want to.
Thinking that Chloe will come over tomorrow and persuade Lily to go back with her, a dark idea pops
out in his mind.
Lily is his. No one can take her away!
John clenches his phone tightly, and gets sweaty palms.
Staring at the Persian carpet under his feet, he says after a while, "Let her come. Stay out of it."
"But she's Lily's sister-in-law." Victor couldn't help but say. Although he doesn't like Lily, he has no
intention to deteriorate the relationship between them. "If she knows..."
John stops him, "She won't know if you don't tell. Victor, I don't know how long I can live, but I don't
want anyone to take her away from me."
