"Got it." Timothy couldn't help but get serious.
"How's Mrs. Fulton doing now?" Xavier was curious about Lily's situation.
His Whathad been active all day, with a group created to add Shane and Tamara, trying to get a group of
people to "cyberbully" him online.
The screen was filled with Edith's scolding
Shane and Tamara messaged him, telling him to handle the situation independently and assuring him he could
manage it, but their lengthy messages were buried under Edith's
He really wanted to pull Lily into this so she could see the mess she had caused! She had accused

ed him of cheating and added so much trouble to his life!
"Mrs. Fulton has moved into a one-bedroom apartment at Aqua Sonata, close to where she works. Today, she
signed a large order worth over 300 thousand, eaming several tens of thousands in commission..." Timothy
reported all the details. After he was finished, there was a long silence on the other end of the line.
Xavier immediately realized he probably didn't need all the details. He might not be happy about this.
"Aooe-bedroom apartment?" he thought to himself. She had to be low on money if she lived in such a small
place.
Why would she live in such a tiny space instead of returning? Did she enjoy suffering?
His expression darkened, his gaze becoming as deep and dark as the sky outside the window.
"It can fit two people," Timothy added, almost accidentally. "A double bed."
Xavier was speechless. "What a lousy place. Does she really think I'd go there to see her?"
Timothy was confused. He paused, trying to figure out what went wrong
After a long silence, he finally said, "If you went, there wouldn't be anywhere for you to stay. Ms. Devereux is
already there."
"Stop talking nonsense and get back to work, Xavier snapped, his expression completely black. He hung up the
phone with a snap.
Still out of it, Timothy didn't even realize what he had said wrong. He mentioned a double bed, but that didn't
mean Xavier should go there to sleep! And even it Xavier wanted to, there was no room for him! Timothy
trudged back to the company, looking defeated.
At 7.00pm, Terence arrived at Aqua Sonata. This place was more secluded than Bayview Gardens, and he wasn't
too happy about Lily living here.
"The security system here isn't great."

"It's fine. | go to work at regular hours and don't stay out too late," Lily said, scanning the room awkwardly. "It's
just a little small, so it might not be convenient for you to visit."
The small couch in the living room could barely accommodate two people. Back at Bayview Gardens, the three
could comfortably sit down and chat.
"This is fine."Terence used cutleries to serve them lamb chops, "With the year-end approaching, I'm busy with
work. If you don't mind, I'll cover occasionally for a meal, but | won't have tto hang out." Maryanne,
eating a spicy barbecue, was sweating heavily from the heat. "Tell Mom and Dad I'll stay with Lily for now!"
Terence handed her a tissue. "She's busy. Are you asking her to spare tto serve you? Stay for a couple of
days and then go back."
"It's fine," Lily said, genuinely liking that Maryanne was staying. "I'll be cooking anyway, so it's not a big deal."
"The main thing is, I've been busy lately and haven't been home. If she's not there, it's too quiet." Terence smiled
warmly, his affectionate gaze retuming to Lily.
The barbeque was hot, with smoke rising in swirling clouds. Lily's cheeks flushed a soft pink, a delicate, rosyhur.
She resembled a flower bud, ready to bloom, a sight that made nue's mouth water.
