Chapter 662: Candlelight Dinner
Chapter 662: Candlelight Dinner
On the other side, after Lily and Rex see all the guests off, they finally have a bit of time to rest. Obviously, Rex has been drunk after being toasted by the enthusiastic guests.
Fortunately, they have booked a suite in the hotel, so they can take the elevator and get straight to the suite to have a rest.
Adair is brought home by Bree and Harry. After all, he is a little boy, so it's no good for him to stay outside for a long time.
The hotel manager personally hands the room card to Lily. The suite is on the top floor. After the elevator door is open, Lily supports Rex, who is by her side, to get in the elevator. Fortunately, with the help of a waiter, she doesn't feel it very difficult to support Rex along the way.
They finally arrive at the door of the suite. After swiping the room card to open the door, Lily is shocked.
Upon entering the suite, she sees a panoramic French window in the living room. On the table place some beautiful red roses. Clearly, the suite has been decorated in advance.
Lily pauses for a moment, and the waiter immediately looks at her with concern. "Miss Lily, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Only then does she get back to her senses and put Rex on the bed with the waiter's help.
She takes out a red envelope and hands it to the waiter.
The waiter hurriedly rejects, "I've just done what I should do. I can't accept it..."
"This isn't a tip. Today is my wedding, so I'm happy. Whoever attends my wedding gets a red envelope. Just take it." Lily directly stuffs the red envelope into the waiter's hand.
The waiter, a young man in his early twenties, blushes and takes it over with embarrassment.
He thinks the red envelope is just a token of gratitude, but after he leaves the suite and opens it, he is shocked. There is a large-denomination consumption card inside.

Lily looks at Rex, who is lying on the bed and falls asleep within several seconds. At the thought of his bridal-chamber declaration, she sighs and shakes her head. Then she wrings out a hot towel in the bathroom and goes back to Rex to clean his body. She bends down and takes off his shirt, unties his shoes, and pulls the quilt aside to cover his body.
After she finishes all these tasks, a thin layer of sweat appears on her body.
Lily looks at Rex’s sleeping face on the pillow. He must be overjoyed today, so he isn’t frowning now. He seldom reveals his emotions to others. Normally, he only wears a calm and gloomy face. Seeing Rex's happy face, Lily gets even happier.
But thinking that Rex has drunk a lot just now, Lily predicts that he probably wouldn't feel comfortable when he wakes up.
With that in mind, she strokes Rex's forehead, intending to massage him to get him relieved.
Unexpectedly, Rex raises his hand and grabs Lily's fingers as soon as the tips of her fingers touch his face.
The sudden movement startles Lily. She looks at Rex’s face, only to find that he is still asleep and hasn't woken up.
Lily tries her best to pull her hand back while she suddenly hears Rex whispering, "Darling..."
Hearing his call, Lily stiffens and doesn't know how to react. Moreover, Rex's voice becomes extraordinarily husky after he's drunk, giving Lily an ear orgasm.
Rex is clearly still asleep, but he blurts out such words. Lily's heart gets soft, and she doesn't have the heart to withdraw her hand, because she's afraid that it will wake him up.
Lily slowly moves over and lies beside Rex, with her right hand tightly clenched by him. She then leans over and carefully approaches the bedside, with her eyes fixed on the handsome face in front of her.
Rex is unquestionably a hunk. He has perfect facial features, but his handsomeness is different from that of the young actors or handsome guys on TV. His beauty brings with it a sharpness after he has experienced the settling of time.
However, Rex is asleep, so he doesn't seem so forcing now.
Lily looks at Rex's sleeping face. While thinking of Rex's usual cold face, she can't help smiling. In fact, Rex is a softhearted man. However, he has experienced too many setbacks and tribulations since he was a little boy, so he has been accustomed to bearing everything alone and showing a tough character to the public. His softness and fragileness are all kept in his heart.
At first sight of Rex, Lily felt that he was tyrannical and bad to the extreme. In those days, every time she saw his face, the first thought that came into her mind was not to appreciate or enjoy his handsomeness, but to feel disgusted from the bottom of her heart.
Since then, she has never imagined that one day she would marry Rex and even have a child with him.
Later, as time went by, their misunderstandings diminished. The hatred was replaced by closer hearts. She gradually realized that Rex is a good man. From then on, she became increasingly deeply involved in this relationship.
They must be destined to be together since they were born, so they are still together after experiencing so many tough obstacles.
Lily is glad that although they have been stumbling along their relationship, they have been together in the end.
She has thought of lots of things. After a busy day, she is also a little tired. So, after a while, she could not help but fall asleep in a daze.
Both sleep in great peace. From day to dawn, their hands are tightly clenched.
At 20:00, Rex is the first to wake up.
His eyelids tremble as he slowly opens his tightly closed eyes. The first person who gets into his sight is Lily, the little woman sleeping soundly beside him. He is surprised for a moment. Looking at her small hand that is quietly placed in his palm, he loosens his grip and straightens up.
After recalling for a few seconds, he reaches out to pull the quilt aside to cover Lily's body. Looking at the slippers and leather shoes that are neatly placed at the foot of the bed, Rex feels as if a feather is sweeping past his heart.
Lily must be tired.
After all, she woke up so early in the morning and has been busy working around all day long. She must be exhausted. But in the end, she still needed to take care of a drunkard after returning to the suite.
Rex fixes his gaze at Lily's fair and tender face for a long time before getting off the bed. He walks to the living room of the suite and calls the Food and Beverage Department with the landline.
"The dinner I ordered should be ready in half an hour. Don't forget the champagne."
After giving a simple order, Rex hangs up the phone, gets up and takes a shower in the bathroom. The smell of alcohol on his body is not good, and he is a bit of a cleaner, so he must wash off the awful smell.
Moreover, he has other plans for tonight, so he must strive for perfection.
Rex takes a quick shower. After washing off the bath cream, he dries his body and comes out.
Rex dries his hair and scratches it. Just as he changes into new clothes, the red bulb on the door of the suite lights up.
Rex is worried that Lily would be disturbed by any noises, so he intentionally switched on a "no disturbing" mode, but the prompt light would be on when waiters serve dinner.
Rex walks to the door and pulls it open. The waiters are waiting outside the door with a trolley. There are gold and silver colored cutlery, knives and forks on it, and a pink and white rose box on the bottom. The refreshing and faint fragrance greets his nose and the slumber in his eyes immediately fades away.
"Mr. Rex, shall we put the dishes on the table for you?" A waiter asks politely.
Only then does Rex sidle to let the waiters in. He watches as they place the stuffs one by one on the round table covered with a white tablecloth at the floor-to-ceiling window.
Surrounded by golden candlesticks and white lace candles, an exquisite flower box is placed in the middle, making the table look like another small but exquisite wedding scene.
