Chapter 1057: Chapter 1060: Finding a 'Dad' for the Twins (2) Chapter 1057: Chapter 1060: Finding a 'Dad' for the Twins (2) “`
There were far too many uncertainties.
Take this time for instance, she left A City in a huff, needing to clear her mind alone for three days, because of a friction that had arisen with the domineering and paranoid second personality during their interactions.
Lily didn't know whether such situations would occur again in the future.
The current Ethan Wilson was too controlling, his desire for dominance occasionally left her feeling exhausted and as though she couldn't bear it.
She didn't know how much longer she could hold on.
So now, even though exposing the existence of Abbie and Lulu to Ethan Wilson had occurred, she still had to conceal their true identities.
On the other end of the phone, Richard Coldwell's deep and steady voice was slowly coming through.
“Miss Redington, I will not question your reasons for wishing to hide this from Mr. Lucas. However, from a man's standpoint, if you can't produce a credible explanation for the twins' identity, he will always harbor doubts about their origins.”
“Of course, with both Abbie and Lulu having blue eyes, Mr. Lucas might not immediately suspect himself. But once he starts investigating, he will eventually uncover the identity of the children's biological father.”
Richard Coldwell was right, if she didn't tell Ethan Wilson who the father of the children was, he would definitely send people to dig deep.
As long as he couldn't unearth the identity of Abbie and Lulu's father, he wouldn't stop for even a day.
And that was exactly what Lily feared the most.
“Miss Redington, our deal is a fair one. If you'll play along with me, I'll do the same for you. Don't forget that I happen to have blue eyes, fitting the criteria for the twins' father.”
Richard Coldwell finally got to the point.
It turned out that the 'deal' he referred to was about mutual benefit.
“You, wait, I need to think…”
Lily's mind was somewhat in disarray.
Agreeing to Richard Coldwell, he was indeed the best 'father' candidate, not only would he not arouse Ethan Wilson's suspicion, he would also not be harming any innocents.
Lily was almost certain, once the second personality learned the children's 'biological father' was someone else, he would surely lash out in retaliation against that man.
And moreover, Richard Coldwell had blue eyes and equally handsome and profound features.
Abbie was still young, her features not yet fully formed.
Looking only at her almond-shaped eyes and the tall bridge of her nose, although she greatly resembled Ethan Wilson, it wasn't to say she didn't look like Richard Coldwell.
Moreover, most people would be easily misled by the children's blue eyes.
With a preconceived notion, they wouldn't associate the children with Ethan Wilson at all.
After all, Richard Coldwell also had a tall nose bridge and narrow eyes, and he was born with blue eyes.
Lily's heart was in constant struggle.
The second personality's cruel temperament was an unpredictable ticking time bomb.
She thought about her interactions with the second personality after returning to her home country.
It was undeniable, he was extremely good to her.
But apart from her, his manner towards others, even towards Emily Taylor and Ben Lucas, was far from warm.
“Okay, I agree to your terms.”
Lily finally made up her mind.
“I am going to find Ethan Wilson right now to take the two children back. Since this is a deal, I hope Mr. Coldwell will keep his word, even if Ethan Wilson gives you a hard time, I hope you will keep mum.”
“From now on, you are the children's father. A few years ago, we had an accidental encounter after some drinks, but we had no feelings for each other, so after we separated, the children stayed with me, and we went back to being just friends. We don't want the children to know the truth, so we choose to deliberately conceal it, what do you think?”
Time was pressing, and this was all Lily could think of for the moment.
“Miss Redington, no… Lily, I hope we will have a pleasant cooperation.”
