Domineering Mr. CEO And His Impudent Love
/ Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love Chapter 1166
Chapter 1166: Chapter 1169: Ben, I'm your mother, I am Lily Gray! Chapter 1166: Chapter 1169: Ben, I'm your mother, I am Lily Gray! Vivian Walters's performance not only failed to move him in the slightest, but for the first time, Aidan Lucas began to question his memory of Lily Gray.
Indeed, people do change.
The woman he once deeply loved had now also become a hypocritical and pretentious woman.
Or, had he been mistaken all along?
In fact, Lily Gray had been deceiving him from the very beginning.
After all, she had once said that she didn't need the troubled Lucas family holding her back; she wanted to go back to M Country and enjoy life.
Thinking of the past, the man's deep and undisturbed eyes finally dimmed slightly.
He looked at the woman with tear-filled eyes and said with an indifferent and distant tone, “Lily Gray, we'll talk about our issues later. Right now, I just want to take care of Ben's issue.”
Ben…
Vivian quickly realized that Ben Lucas's nickname was Ben.
“I'm sorry, I was just too excited to see you that I couldn't help myself…”
Vivian quickly wiped away her tears and conjured up what she thought to be a sweet smile.
“Ben, mommy didn't scare you, did I? Good boy, don't be afraid, this isn't your fault. Mommy will talk to your teacher, don't worry, mommy will always be on your side.”
Vivian's tone was soft and sweet, her teary, peach blossom eyes shimmering with a lively light.
Even the smile she pulled for Ben carried a touch of genuine love and tenderness.
Such behavior significantly lessened the bit of revulsion Aidan Lucas felt in his heart.
He had to admit, Lily Gray might have had flaws in her feelings for him, but her love for Ben was real.
If it weren't for thinking about her past betrayal, recalling the heartless four years she never looked back, Aidan Lucas might really have forgiven her.
“No need,” Ben coldly rejected Vivian's kindness.
He looked at the face that so closely resembled his mother's and tugged at the old man's collar.
“She's not my mother,” Ben pointed at Vivian and said.
Vivian was taken aback, then her face revealed a bittersweet smile, “Ben, mommy knows it's hard for you to accept this right now, but everything mommy just told you is true. Mommy loves you, mommy had her reasons…”
While speaking, Vivian's slightly upturned peach blossom eyes again filled with tears.
Aidan Lucas frowned slightly.
Even though he still harbored hatred for Lily Gray, he did not wish his resentment to affect Ben.
A child needs the companionship of parents to grow. He did not want the affairs of adults to impact the child.
Thinking back to his own relationship with Theodore as a child, he didn't want Ben to follow in his footsteps.
In a low voice, Aidan Lucas said to Ben in his arms, “There's more to the bombings three years ago, your mother didn't die. This woman isn't lying to you, she is indeed your mother.”
Aidan Lucas had misunderstood Ben's words, thinking he believed his mother was dead, which is why he was refusing to acknowledge Lily Gray.
Ben looked at Aidan Lucas with a face that read, “Are you joking with me?”
Even he could tell the woman in front of him wasn't his mother; how could the old man who monopolized his mother every night fail to recognize her?
Or was he simply putting on an act, aiming to lure out an enemy?
Having 'fought' internally with Aidan Lucas's alter ego for a long time, Ben could say he knew his personality better than his own.
Thinking of the old man's cold and resolute methods, Ben immediately had his answer.
That's right.
The old man was normally not so cordial to him, let alone hold him so affectionately without letting go.
The two of them, father and son, were inherently incompatible.
Linking this to Aidan Lucas's series of unusual actions today, Ben also quickly slipped into character.
“Mommy… are you really my mommy?” Little Ben looked at Lily Gray's impostor, and on his handsome little face, he showed an expression of both anticipation and shyness.
“Of course,” Vivian suppressed her elation and said, “Ben, I am your mommy, I'm Lily Gray!”
