“They make a fuss, let them. They know how to create drama, but your husband here isn't a pushover.”
In the dead of night, within the Lucas family study room, Lily was embraced on the sofa by Aidan Lucas, who whispered softly into her ear.
Their king-size bed had already been claimed by their three babies, and just as Larry Scott called, fearing to wake the babies, Lily went to the study to answer it.
Little did she know, as soon as she stepped out, the man followed her in.
“I know you're not a pushover…” If Aidan Lucas was a pushover, she wouldn't always feel like she lacked energy.
“But still, this isn't right. You haven't taken office yet, and besides… Mason Scott's identity is still a bit too sensitive.”
After all, he was her grandfather on a blood relation basis, and if things blew up, outsiders might judge Aidan Lucas.
Aidan Lucas didn't care about this.
He was the man who could break his biological father's leg with his own hands, let alone a grandfather with whom Lily had absolutely no emotional connection.
He shifted positions to make the woman in his arms more comfortable, “Mason Scott has been admitted to the ICU, in the Military General Hospital?”
“No, at the First City Hospital.”
The man frowned slightly, “King's Palace is closer to the Military General Hospital, and the Scott family's influence is in the military, so why send him to the First City Hospital?”
“Who knows? Mr. Scott and my uncle were still at the hotel seeing off guests at the time, and it was Wendy Jenkins and the others who sent him. But my uncle said over the phone just now that Mr. Scott asked for me to come over early tomorrow morning, saying he has something to explain to me.”
Mr. Scott had the resolve to make a clean break when necessary, or else the Scott family wouldn't have been able to rise during the war era.
Although he was someone who played to the wind, he understood that once he took a stand and chose his side, he had to stick with it to the end.
Mr. Scott calling her over meant he wanted to finish what he hadn't fully explained.
The story of Lily's origins had not yet been completely disclosed.
“I'll accompany you.” Aidan Lucas captured her soft hand and kissed it.
“No need for that. If you go now, I'm afraid they'll seize the chance to cause trouble.” Lily withdrew her hand from his and, with her delicate arms wrapped around his neck from behind, affectionately rubbed her nose against his.
“Don't worry, I'll bring my people with me and ensure that no one can bully me. With what happened tonight, you'll definitely be busy tomorrow, so you go handle your own affairs and don't worry about me.”
Now that her identity had been publicly revealed, whether the other members of the Scott family believed it or not, she didn't have to hide her comings and goings.
Tomorrow, she would call Sadie, bring a few people from the Reddington family, and that would be enough to make her presence felt.
Aidan Lucas watched the woman who was taking the initiative to cozy up to him, his deep gaze slowly turning ardent.
Every time she needed something from him, she knew how to play this game.
But damn it, he was susceptible to this tactic.
After capturing her glistening lips that kept teasing before his eyes and savoring them for a long moment, the man eventually gave in.
“Okay, but on one condition.”
“Hmm?” Lily lifted her misty, peach-blossom eyes, gazing at him innocently.
Such a woman, so tempting, made one want to swallow her whole.
His lips curved in a roguish arc as Aidan Lucas chuckled lowly, stripping away her last defenses.
Her pale body, gradually revealed, sank bit by bit into the vast sofa.
Only in the end did Lily hear Aidan Lucas's condition.
He said, “Lily, have a child for me.”

The next day, Lily woke up to the urgent ringing of the alarm clock.
Bedroom, king-size bed–how did she end up here?
Lily quickly turned off the cell phone alarm to find that the three babies who were supposed to be sleeping on the king-size bed were nowhere to be seen.
And the man who had bullied her all last night was also gone.
Only she sat alone on the king-size bed.
Her thoughts flashed back to last night in an instant.
She still remembered, amidst her drowsy state, Aidan Lucas asking her to have a baby for him.
Lily could hardly remember how many times this topic had been brought up now.
Did he really care that much?
