/ Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love Chapter 1142
Chapter 1142: Chapter 1145: Thinking of Deceiving Mr. Lucas? No Way Chapter 1142: Chapter 1145: Thinking of Deceiving Mr. Lucas? No Way Aidan Lucas's icy gaze was locked onto the computer screen.
When he saw the graceful figure appear on the screen, a hint of surprise flicked through the deep coldness of his black pupils.
Lily?
Not Lily?
Yet, judging only from the screen, that face was clearly that of a woman.
Through the screen, one could only judge by appearances; at least, the woman in the screen looked incredibly similar to Lily in terms of her features and even her gestures, including the way she walked.
Moreover, the date shown on the surveillance was just last week, a time before they had even gone to B City, and even the timing had no discrepancies.
But even with so much evidence pointing to Lily, Aidan Lucas still did not believe that the person appearing on the screen was his Lily.
“This matter is suspicious; Lily does not need Lily Gray's identity, nor does she need to reissue the marriage certificate.”
She is a daughter of the Reddington family; her last name should be Redington. Lily Gray was a thing of the past.
Besides, according to the original plan, they were supposed to fly back to A City today to change their civil registry documents; Lily had no need to go through all this hassle.
“Send someone to check all the surveillance videos outside the Registrar's Office on that day; I want to know that woman's whereabouts,” Aidan Lucas instructed Benjamin Lucas IX, who stood at the door.
The best way to discover the truth was to meet this 'Lily Gray' face-to-face.
“Right.” he turned his head to Joshua Fenton, “For ordinary citizens, is it possible to reissue a marriage certificate without both parties present?”
Aidan Lucas belonged to a privileged class and was unfamiliar with the procedures for ordinary people.
“Normally, both spouses need to be present, but this 'Lily Gray's' background is a bit peculiar; there's been someone pulling strings for her during the procedure. There's definitely someone powerful behind this,”
Joshua Fenton, a shrewd man, had by now stopped referring to the woman in the video as 'Young Lady' and instead called her 'this Lily Gray'.
He sharply picked up from Mr. Lucas's words that there was something off about this woman.
“In that case… Benjamin, once you find her, do not alert her. Have someone keep an eye on her and see who she meets. Report back if there's any issue,”
A woman who looked exactly like Lily.
She had Lily Gray's ID and even used it to reissue a marriage certificate.
The origin and intentions of this woman were not simple.
Aidan Lucas narrowed his eyes, deciding to keep this trouble from Lily until it was resolved.

B City, Manor.
Lily was in the study room contacting Director Hamilton.
She could not stay in A City for the time being, so she had entrusted Director Hamilton with handling matters for the Gray family.
“Mr. Gray, the current situation at Gray family is really difficult. Even if you have enough funds, but since Gray family started in the entertainment industry, if no respectable achievements are made, then the Entertainment Company of Gray family might as well be dead in name,”
A few years ago, Gray family had produced TV series like 'The Tale of The Beloved Mistress,' which was a winner both in terms of reputation and viewership. In the following years, they were stable and solid; though there were no major blockbuster projects, they managed to hold their own in Eastonia's entertainment market every year.
But since Rowena Gray took over the Gray family, coupled with the coalition of Weldon, Bastion, and Wellington families, the Gray family no longer had the power to fight back.
Even later, when Wellington family no longer targeted the Gray family, the now debilitated and resource-lost Gray family no longer had the capability to compete with other entertainment companies.
Lily had the support of Reddington Group behind her, indeed providing significant funds for Gray family.
But the trouble was, in the entertainment circle, it isn't just about having money to make things happen.
Some top stars and veteran actors do not just look at money, they also consider the cast involved in the project.
