Chapter 1153: Chapter 1156: Martha Barnes's Identity (1) Chapter 1153: Chapter 1156: Martha Barnes's Identity (1) “No, I will personally interrogate that person called Milly Gray. Actually, I also don't believe Commander Scott would issue such an order, he doesn't seem like the type to leave himself vulnerable like that.”
Martha Barnes only seemed tender on the outside, just as Richard Coldwell had said, her heart harbored a strong force.
Don't say this matter, it might not be Larry Scott's doing.
Even if it really was.
With Martha Barnes' personality, she would thoroughly investigate it to the end.
“Alright, you look into this issue, and I will also ask my uncle. As for Milly Gray, I leave her to you, to deal with as you see fit.”
The two agreed and even exchanged cell phone numbers before they carried their bags and purses to have dinner.
At the dinner table, Lily always felt that no matter how she looked at Martha Barnes, she was just too nice, and she really didn't want to deceive her.
After hesitating again and again, she silently said a 'sorry' to Richard Coldwell in her heart.
Lily decided to betray Richard Coldwell.
“Erina, this is the situation. Mr. Coldwell, he likes you, and he and I are just friends. Although I don't understand why he had to do this, he said that doing this would stimulate you, to make you… to make you elope.”
If before, Lily had thought Richard Coldwell's actions were totally absurd.
Now, Lily had come to believe in Richard Coldwell's judgment.
Martha Barnes really had the potential to elope, and moreover, her personality was not as soft and approachable as it appeared.
If she were not willing, perhaps, even Richard Coldwell would be powerless against her.
“Fake…” Martha Barnes' dark eyes slightly startled.
“How could it be possible… you guys, you clearly…” Clearly sitting so close, looking so intimate.
Richard Coldwell, such a person, when has he ever been close with the opposite sex.
Even if it were older family members touching him, he would still maintain a cold face, looking displeased.
Lily played with the strands of hair by her ear, and said with pursed lips, “I'm not lying to you, my family and Richard Coldwell's mother's family have been friends for generations. I guess, have you two been separated for a few years now?”
Erina's eyes flickered, then dimmed, “Yeah, we've been apart for a long time.”
“That's not surprising then. Erina, you know, these past few years Richard Coldwell has continuously been threatening and enticing me to agree to a matrimonial alliance with him.”
The moment Lily finished speaking, Erina suddenly looked up.
Her jet-black clear eyes, unmoving, staring at Lily, her beautiful eyes nearly drowned by tears.
“You, don't cry… listen to me first…” Lily panicked, seeing Erina cry, she didn't know why tears also welled up in her beautiful peach blossom eyes.
“Richard Coldwell's alliance with me is just as the word 'alliance' suggests, a mere alliance. He told me he chose me because I have someone else in my heart. I could never like him. Only I, am the safest option. He wants a woman who won't cling to him, because… he wants to provoke you, to make you come back to him.”
Lily felt she had made herself very clear, yet Erina continued to cry.
She didn't make a sound, just gently shaking her shoulders, silently sobbing.
Now, where was any trace of the composure she had just a while ago? She had reverted to that girl who had hidden in a corner and wept when they first met.
Out of fear that Erina might be heartbroken, Lily also disclosed that she was married, her husband was Aidan Lucas, and they had three children.
Finally, when she had said all this, Erina gradually stopped crying.
She raised her reddened eyes, looking pitifully and said: “Lily, I am not crying over you and Richard Coldwell, I am just crying for myself. I didn't expect that after all these years, he was still waiting for me… But Lily, Richard Coldwell and I, it's impossible between us…”
“Why is it impossible, you two are clearly so suited for each other?”
“Because… because I am also a Coldwell.”
