Chapter 36 Protection From Eden
Chapter 36 Protection From Eden
After work, Lily went back home in the car of Dillon. She didn't plan to go back with them at first, but Joe left the company early in the afternoon, so she had to go home with them.
When she returned home, Lucia and her daughter glanced at her angrily, and ignored by the Dillon. Only when she met with the sight of Eden, there was a little worry in his eyes.
worry?
Huh Lily smiled. Was he still worried about being hit by them?
Although they would not fight, she could not bear what they said.
"Well, you become smarter now. You know how to seek help from Grandpa." Claire said sarcastically.
"What's the use of seeking shelter!" After she just finished her words, Lucia immediately opened her mouth. She stared at Lily coldly and said, "Lily, we are not bad for you. You have to grab Claire for everything. Frank gave Claire a gift. If it wasn't for you, so you pushed Claire into the water. Why are you so vicious?"
If it was the previous life, Lily would have lowered her head, but this life she had nothing to fear. And now, they didn't dare to do anything to her because of Grandpa.
Looking at the disgusting mother and daughter indifferently, she smiled. "Really? Am I vicious?"
As she spoke, she turned to look at Eden and said in a somewhat innocent tone, "Brother, aunt said I am vicious. Do you think I am vicious?" From NôvelDrama.Org.
Lucia and Claire didn't expect that she would talk to Eden like that. They were both angry. At the same time, they looked at Eden with a hint of warning.
Eden frowned. His hand hanging on his side tightened. The scene he saw last night recurred to his mind. He remembered the wound on Lily, which he saw in Eric's room.
"It was Claire's fault. Lily had nothing to do with it." Finally, he chose to tell the truth.
Lily looked at surprised. She didn't expect Eric to defend her!
"Eden, you..." Lucia looked at him angrily.
"Brother, why do you help outsider?" Claire shouted at him in dissatisfaction.
"Lily is not an outsider." Eden took a deep look at her, "What I said is truth. Don't ever frame others."
"Brother, you How could you say that to me? Daddy... " Refusing to give up, Claire turned to the Dillon and asked for his help. "Look at my brother. It was Lily's fault. How could he help her bit me back?"
Dillon frowned unhappily. He looked at Claire and then at Lily. He said in a low voice, "This matter has passed. Why do you look into it?"
Claire wanted to say more, but when he said that, she closed her mouth, but the stare at Lily couldn't wait to stare her into a hole.
Lucia was not reconciled at all, but she couldn't go on causing trouble, so this matter was dismissed.
Lily didn't plan to eat the dinner. She turned around and went upstairs, but before she went upstairs, she took a look at Eden.
After taking a look at them, Dillon went upstairs to his room.
Seeing that, Lucia took Eden's hand and scolded him, "What did I say to you last night? Claire is your sister. How can you help that bitch?"
Eden frowned in displeasure, "Mom, be careful with your language." Then he got rid of Lucia's hands and went upstairs.
Lucia froze. She looked at his back as he went upstairs, seeming to be thinking about something.
The time spent studying in the company for two days on the weekend passed quickly, and it was the day when they went to school.
As usual, Lily went to school with Claire and Eden.
Upon arriving at the school, Claire got out of the car without looking at the other two, and went to the teaching building angrily. Without York and Sheena, those who were close to her were gone.
It was still early for the class. Instead of rushing to the classroom, Lily went to the library, followed by Eden.
Lily turned around and looked at him. She did not say anything but slightly frowned. She did not understand why he followed.
In a plain tone, Eden said, "Dad asked me to read some books on management. I planned to go to the library."
After hearing his explanation, Lily smiled and didn't say anything. She continued to walk forward, but her eyes were gloomy.
In fact, she was looking for books. Although she worked in her previous life, she had a little knowledge about sales. She didn't know much about it, so she decided to study hard in this new life.
After all, it was an aristocratic school. Besides the knowledge on books, students had to knew else things, so it was necessary for school to have all kinds of books in the library.
Soon, Lily found the book she wanted. But in order to cover it, she also found a few books. Without waiting for Eden, she took the book and registered. Then she directly went back to the classroom.
"Lily, come here. I have something for you." When she entered the classroom, she saw Becky waving at her.
Lily smiled, walked to her seat and put down her book. "Why are you so happy today?"
"Look at this!" She opened the pink brocade box and showed it to Lily, asking, "Is it beautiful?"
There was a pair of bracelets in the box, both of which were of extraordinary workmanship and luxury. There was a complete heart in the middle of the bracelet, and each of the two bracelets was inlaid with half a heart.
"They look great." Lily nodded with a smile.
"My mom bought these for us. Each for us." Becky put down the box as she spoke. She took out one of the bracelets and put it on Lily's left hand and the other on her left hand.
After wearing it, she held their hands together and exclaimed, "It's so beautiful!"
"Yes." Lily nodded, her eyes red. The necklace was priceless but she didn't want to disappoint Becky so she didn't refuse.
Becky didn't notice her difference. She continued, "Can you see? It's a heart. We should work together in the future. You can't hide anything from me."
"Okay." Lily said in a nasal voice.
"What's wrong?" Noticing her difference, Becky asked with concern.
Lily looked at her and smiled shyly. "I was moved by you."
"Oh, you don't need to be touched." Becky pat her shoulder, "If you are really moved, you can cook for me a few more times. I miss your meals."
"Okay." Lily answered with a smile.
"You are so kind." After that, she hugged Lily and kissed her on the face.
When Eden walked into the classroom, he happened to see this scene and involuntarily frowned. Except for that, he did not do anything else and walked straight towards his seat.
Lily didn't know why everyone in the classroom was so happy today. They all smiled. They were talking about something happily.
Lily paid all her attention to Becky. She didn't hear what they were talking about at all.
"Oh, by the way..." Suddenly, Becky let go of her and said, "Lily, do you know the activity organized by our school?"
"What kind of activity?" Lily was confused.
"Autumn tour."
"Oh, does everyone have to participate?"
"There is no compulsory requirement, but I really want to go. Just relax. Lily, don't you want to go?" Becky looked at Lily with hope. She added, "No, you must go, or I will feel bored to go there alone..."
"Okay, I'll go with you." Lily promised with a smile. Actually, it was not a bad thing to go out and play. After all, she owed Becky one leg in her previous life. In this life, no matter what she asked for, she could not refuse her.
Becky briefly told her something about the autumn trip. It happened on Friday and was located at the central mountain near the city. The scenery was said to be very beautiful in autumn above the 3000 meters sea level.
Lily didn't pay much attention to this autumn trip. It was just a small activity organized by the school.
Time passed quickly in the morning. Soon it was afternoon. As soon as the first class was over, Claire entered the classroom, snorted at Lily, and walked towards Eden.
"Brother, why is your phone off?" Standing still, Claire looked at Eden discontentedly.
"What's the matter?" Eden asked indifferently.
"Mom called you several times, but you didn't answer the phone, so she asked me to come personally." Claire complained.
"Speak the point." Eden was impatient, took out his mobile phone and glanced, it turned out to be out of power.
The arrival of Claire and her loud voice attracted the attention of many people around them.
As for his attitude, Claire was somewhat dissatisfied, but she still told him the purpose of coming here. "Frank invited us to dinner tonight. My mother asked us to go back early to prepare."
"Okay." He put away his cellphone and bowed his head again to continue reading.
Seeing her brother no longer talking to her, Claire was somewhat unhappy. She was about to leave. But when she turned to Lily again, she felt more upset.
When she walked out of the classroom and passed by her seat, she raised her voice deliberately. "Someone doesn't have such a good luck as today. She's now out of the invitation, right? Anyway, as a
mistress's daughter, she's so cheap."
"You..." Lily hadn't lost her temper yet. Becky was anxious to stand up and speak for her, but she was stopped by Lily, who shook her head and hinted her not to say anything.
Then she turned her head and looked coldly at Claire. When she was about to say something, Eden had already stood up.
"Claire!" With a deep voice, he came to Claire's side and pulled her out of the class, "Who allows you to say these words? Lily is your sister!"
Their interaction attracted the attention of all the people in the classroom, but most of them were looking at Lily.
Lily didn't mind. Thanks to Claire, everyone had already known her identity as the 'mistress' in the school.
But to her surprise, since the day she met with Eden at the company when he apologized to her, he had been defending her these days, either at home or at school.
Even Becky felt his change. She looked at Lily in surprise. "Lily, what's wrong with Eden? Why do I feel he is protecting you?"
Lily shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe he is crazy."
To be honest, she still didn't understand why Eden helped her.
