Chapter 1358: Chapter 1355: An Unexpected Person Appears (Extra 3)

Lily knew she should explain to Sadie.

But the matter of Aidan Lucas’s double personality was not something she could easily share with others.

Seeing Lily remain silent, Sadie grew annoyed, "The wounds on your chest, the injuries on your back, those couldn’t have been caused by just anyone—only Aidan Lucas could do this to you."

"Alice, you are the Reddington family’s young mistress. Aidan Lucas divorced you and then sent you back pregnant with all these injuries—that’s a clear insult to our Reddington family!"

Despite being a woman, Sadie was tough and couldn’t accept that the young mistress of her family had been humiliated by her "ex-husband."

"Sadie, there’s more to this situation than you know. I’m sorry, I can’t tell you... but trust me, once the misunderstanding is cleared up, things will get better."

She had originally planned to leave Eastonia and return to Europe.

But Ethan Wilson told her he knew how to make his two personalities coexist peacefully and that he could find a way to make the first personality forgive her.

Lily didn’t know how he would do it, but he was Ethan Wilson—no matter which personality—he said it, and she believed it.

"You really are... sigh, never mind, I won’t interfere anymore. I’ll arrange for someone to perform a medical examination on you..."

Sadie couldn’t stand to watch any longer and rose to leave.

"Sadie!" Lily called out to her, "Find someone reliable, and don’t let Daddy or mother know about this."

The Duke and Duchess finding out was unimaginable.

Sadie’s eyes flickered for a moment, "Alright, rest assured, I won’t let the Duke and Duchess know."

After saying that, Sadie went out to find the Reddington Group’s Royal Physician.

As for the promise she had just made to Lily,

Indeed, she promised not to tell the Duke and Duchess, but she didn’t promise not to tell their son.

The direct consequence of Sadie’s ’betrayal’ was that the next day at noon, just as Lily had woken up, she saw a familiar figure beside her bed.

"David Redington—" Lily abruptly sat up, accidentally touching the sore on her back where a piece of skin had come off.

She hissed in pain and collapsed back on the bed.

David Redington’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, his deep blue eyes showing distress.

"Call me ’brother,’" David Redington’s clear, pleasant voice sounded.

He sat down by the bed and carefully helped Lily sit up.

"Brother..." Lily, feeling guilty, couldn’t bring herself to look at him.

After years of experience, David Redington’s handsome and noble features seemed even more chiseled and defined than a few years ago.

He gently ruffled Lily’s hair. Even though the gesture was tender, his magnetic, cold voice carried irritation, "Sadie told me everything—how Aidan Lucas bullied you."

"I... I wasn’t..." Lily reflexively denied.

David Redington didn’t believe her word, touching her injured back with his long, slender index finger.

Lily bit her teeth, holding back the cry, but her contorted face revealed the truth of her pain.

"Still trying to lie to me, huh?" David Redington glanced at her coolly.

How could someone from the outside bully the girl whom their Reddington family treated like a treasure?

Especially that man named Aidan Lucas.

"Bro... brother, you’re the best... believe me, I really wasn’t bullied." Seeing that playing dumb was futile, Lily immediately clung to David Redington’s arm, acting coquettishly, "It’s all a misunderstanding. I just fell by accident, it was Mason Scott who pushed me..."

In order to protect Aidan Lucas, Lily had no choice but to shift the blame to Mason Scott.

But before she could finish her words, David Redington’s eyes, as deep as the Milky Way, suddenly narrowed.

"Lily, Mason Scott has been in the hospital bed for more than half a month now. And the wound on your neck is fresh."

After David Redington spoke, his slender, pale fingers caressed Lily’s delicate neck exposed by her pajamas.

[Author’s Note] There’s one more update coming, and it’s someone who adores Lily.
