Free Web NovelChapter 2596: Chapter 69: The End
"Okay, I understand..." Abraham Redington’s icy blue eyes lost their color for a moment. He lowered his gaze, covering the emotions in his eyes, and stood up.
The man, looking down from above, quickly had his handsome face covered in an icy demeanor, like a frozen bastion.
"Mom, Dad... Since my brother’s engagement banquet is canceled and I can’t leave Europe, I’ll head back first." Abraham’s expression was extremely cold, with no emotional fluctuation on his indifferent and handsome face.
He bypassed the chair that had fallen behind him and walked towards the living room door.
"Redington..." Lily wanted to call out to her son, but her left hand was once again held by Aidan Lucas.
Molly Wellington heard what Abraham said, her almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly, but soon she calmed down.
Her gaze fixed on a point on the table, appearing more composed and calm than ever.
Abraham’s somewhat slow pace quickened when no one tried to stop him.
He walked out of the living room, his back showing no trace of loneliness, but rather a cold and upright figure. freewёbnoνel.com
Only Yana Lucas, sitting by the door, noticed Abraham’s right hand, clenched into a tight fist, hanging by his side.
...
After Abraham left, everything seemed to return to normal.
From start to finish, Molly Wellington only kept her head down, listening to the adults talk without saying a word.
She didn’t dare to speak, fearing that once she spoke, she would break down. It was hard for her to hold back her tears.
Everyone else there could see Molly Wellington’s seemingly normal but actually unusual behavior.
But they all knew that what Molly Wellington needed now was not consolation in person, but something that allowed her heart to slowly heal.
Even though Dylan Wellington really wanted to drag Abraham back to make him take responsibility.
But he admired his daughter’s pride.
His daughter was right; their Wellington daughter wasn’t someone who couldn’t live without a Lucas son.
Even if it was the son of his best friend Aidan Lucas, wasn’t he just there to warm their precious bed?
The Wellington family didn’t stay long, busy saying their goodbyes, knowing they had to go back and talk with Molly properly.
Aidan Lucas and Lily Redington saw the Wellington family of three to the door.
Molly Wellington obediently followed beside her parents, leaning against the door, waiting for the adults to exchange pleasantries, keeping her head down looking at her toes.
At this moment, a tall figure suddenly approached, almost blocking all the light from the streetlamp beneath the door.
Molly Wellington saw the circle of light at her feet turn into a shadow, and she looked up in surprise, seeing her godfather Aidan Lucas’s stern and solemn face standing in front of her.
He was looking at her with deep, dark eyes.
Molly Wellington was taken aback.
Unlike the kind and gentle godmother Lily, godfather Lucas was always unsmiling, particularly cold and stern, which always made Molly Wellington a little scared when she saw him.
However, this time, to her surprise,
Seeing Molly Wellington look up, Aidan Lucas, who had walked outside the door, suddenly bent down and softly whispered something into Molly Wellington’s ear.
"Hmm?" Molly Wellington blinked her almond-shaped eyes hard, and then blinked again, doubting what she had heard.
Aidan Lucas, who had already stood up straight again, had his cold lips curved into a slight arc: "So, are you willing?"
Molly Wellington took a few seconds to digest Aidan Lucas’s suggestion, and after contemplating, she nodded decisively.
The curve on Aidan Lucas’s lips deepened slightly, and his extraordinarily handsome face almost dazzled those who looked at it.
He reached out and rubbed the top of Molly Wellington’s head.
If she weren’t the girl he had watched grow up and Dylan Wellington’s daughter, she wouldn’t have been treated this way by Mr. Lucas.
Lily and the Wellington couple all looked at the interaction between the two with confused eyes, having no idea what Mr. Lucas just told Molly Wellington.
But they all felt that the previously downcast Molly Wellington’s eyes seemed to reignite with a new light.
