Let's Get Married novel Chapter 579

Those pictures shoot at her like daggers through a space-time tunnel, stabbing into her soft brain. The harder she tries to figure out what is going on, the more difficult it gets to remember.

Gradually, she sees the child's face clearly. It is Adair. She has seen him countless times in videos. He is smiling so happily, revealing eight white and neat teeth. "Mom, is this Dad?"

When she can't feel, the sounds and pictures are all just meaningless and dull.

She wants to answer the boy, but she can't. She doesn't even know what happened next.

A buzz sounds.

The sound rings out in her ears, from her temples to the depths of her head. As if she were being torn apart by a pair of large invisible hands, she feels a splitting headache and cannot help but groan, "How painful. It hurts...."

Rex is woken up by her low cry of pain. His deep black eyes are bleary from the sleep. But when he sees her painful expression, he is wide-awake.

He immediately sits up and asks nervously, "Lily? What's wrong with you?"

Lily used to have nightmares quite often, so even if her eyes are open now, he isn't sure if she is being haunted by nightmares or if she is feeling uncomfortable.

Lily keeps hitting her head with her hands, as if doing so would alleviate the pain.

Rex looks at her and feels heartache. He grabs her hands to stop her from moving. He keeps calling out her name, "Lily, wake up! Look at me!"

His shout helps Lily regain her senses. She is pulled out of the deep vortex of memories. She looks at the man's eyes and says, "Rex...."

"It's me. I'm here!" Rex heaves a sigh of relief and lets go of her wrists. "It's fine. Don't force yourself if you can't remember."

She has experienced this several times. Recalling the past would leave her in pain. He once asked Karl about this, and Karl said it was common among amnesia patients. It is not a bad thing. Although it is painful, it can help her slowly remember what happened.

However, Rex's heart aches like hell when he sees her in agony.

"I thought of Adair. Did I ever work abroad?" Lily looks at him with uncertainty.

Rex's body shakes and he is somewhat surprised. "That's right. You remember that?" he says.

She can't remember what happened after she divorced Tim. Although she helped her own case back then, she can't recall it. She even forgets about going abroad to work in London after that.

Now that she mentions this, Rex is both shocked and pleasantly surprised.

"I ... I don't know if I remember. I just saw Adair sitting beside me on the plane. He was very happy and said that he wanted to find his father."

Every word moves Rex. "Yes, you left for five years. Adair wasn't with me, and you hid yourself. I thought you died in an accident and we missed each other. However, in the end, you came back."

"So, I gave birth to your child at the beginning of these five years?"

Not to mention....

Lily takes a deep breath and looks into his deep eyes. Those dark eyes seem to have endless magic that can suck people whole.

Now she can hear no sound but only her own heart thumping with power.

"Rex, perhaps I should learn to face my heart calmly," Lily speaks earnestly with piety in her eyes, "Although I don't want to face your sacrifice, my heart don't allow me. I tried to struggle against it, but I failed. My reason says it is fine even when I see how distressed you are, but my heart...."

She covers her left chest and smiles with tears, saying, "It hurts."

Rex did not expect her to say this. His eyes are burning as he stares at this tender and fragile face. His throat is boiling hot, and he doesn't know what to say.

"You're awesome. Even if I don't remember what happened, I feel you have a good heart during my time with you. My appreciation can't turn into love for the time being. But I still want to try to accept my heart and this relationship." Saying that not only isn't as difficult as she imagined, but gives her relief. "It's just that it may take me a long time to adjust. You need to be patient."

Rex cannot believe what he has just heard. She tried to push him away most of the time these past few days. This behavior hurts him more than to see her suffer from the treatment.

But now she says she wants to do her best to accept him.

He holds the woman in front of him into his arms. After so many days, apart from secretly hugging her and kissing her in the dead of night, he never managed to be intimate with her.

Now a simple hug makes his eyes red. "No matter how long you need, I will wait for you."
