Chapter 1298: Chapter 1301: He Found Out, Lily is Hiding a Secret Chapter 1298: Chapter 1301: He Found Out, Lily is Hiding a Secret The woman, usually so sweet and compliant in his embrace, now pushed him away as if electrocuted, bouncing out of his arms as fast as she could.

“Don’t, don’t hold me–” Lily struggled to push Aidan Lucas away, falling onto the soft bed beside them, quickly wrapping herself in a blanket.

The blanket stolen from him, Aidan Lucas gazed deeply at her.

He sat up halfway, his naked, strong body clearly defined with firm and beautifully sculpted muscles, exuding a charm that was hard to look away from.

Yet, at that moment, Lily dared not look at him, instinctively wanting to keep her distance.

It wasn’t out of dislike or disgust, but purely out of fear.

Fear that Aidan Lucas’s unguarded actions might harm the baby.

“Lily, what’s wrong?” After hesitating for a few seconds, a slightly hoarse voice finally spoke softly.

No one knew the panic that had flared in Aidan Lucas’s heart just a moment ago.

He had been pushed away by Lily.

He saw the rejection in Lily’s eyes.

He feared that Lily might suddenly tell him.

That she had long known everything, that she knew he was a split personality, and therefore, she hated him!

When Lily heard Aidan Lucas’s question, she belatedly realized she had made a mountain out of a molehill.

What was she doing?

Why was she afraid that Aidan Lucas would hurt the child?

Not to mention whether his embrace might squeeze the baby, but her attitude alone was clearly off.

This baby, this baby clearly shouldn’t be kept.

If it really were accidentally harmed by Aidan Lucas, she could easily pretend she didn’t know about the pregnancy, pretend it was fate that she and the baby were not meant to be.

Moreover, this way, she could let Aidan Lucas know without any guilt, letting someone share this heavy burden of remorse with her.

But, Lily was still Lily.

Despite everything she had been through, deep down she was still a gentle and kind-hearted woman.

Knowing this child shouldn’t be kept, why should she tell too many people, why should she let Aidan Lucas and Emily Taylor share in this grief with her?

This heavy burden, she could bear it alone; there was no need to let more people know and suffer with her.

“It’s nothing, um… sorry, I think I just had a nightmare and didn’t wake up clear-headed.”

Lily released the hand she had held protectively over her belly and obediently leaned towards Aidan Lucas.

She took the initiative to reach for his neck, hugging him and giving him a kiss, “Sorry, did I make you sad? I… I was confused, it wasn’t on purpose.”

Lily’s delicate apology, accompanied by her blinking moist, alluring eyes, made her look both adorable and seductive.

“Having a nightmare?” Aidan Lucas gently pinched her chin and shook it.

“Yes, it scared me to death.” Seeing the skepticism in Aidan Lucas’s eyes, Lily immediately cuddled him cutely.

Faced with such a Lily, Aidan Lucas invariably found himself surrendering.

Indeed, after being hugged and mumbled to for a while, the man swept away his earlier gloominess.

He pulled her into his embrace, tenderly saying, “Silly, you’re a mother of three children now and still get scared by a dream. You know dreams are not real, right?”

He kissed her gently, unsure if these words were meant to comfort the woman or himself.

Just, in those deep and profound almond-shaped eyes, hidden where Lily couldn’t see, a dark glint flickered momentarily.

He didn’t expose her.

But he knew, Lily was lying, she had secrets.

Clearly, the woman was hiding something from him.

The next two days, Aidan Lucas was incredibly busy.

Wendy Jenkins suffered brain stem damage, and although she was successfully resuscitated, she would likely spend her life bedridden, living in a vegetative state.

And Mason Scott, although Mr. Scott had stepped in to take him home.

But reportedly, he was now very irritable, often sitting alone all day cursing incessantly.
