Upon seeing Aiden Taylor, Easton Holmes immediately understood what had happened just now. Without greeting Aiden, he directly looked at his grandfather, Mr. Linton, and asked, "Where’s Lily?"
He turned his head to look around, but didn’t see her figure.
"Lily went back to the room..."
Callix Linton had barely spoken half a sentence when Easton turned and ran out of the living room, heading straight to their room on the second floor.
At that moment, Lily Turner was sitting dazed on the sofa in the room, while Mrs. Lee stood quietly beside her, watching her intently, constantly monitoring her.
Earlier, when Callix Linton called Easton Holmes, Lily progressively snapped out of her daze, insisting on going back to the room alone.
Neither Callix Linton nor Aiden Taylor felt comfortable letting her return to the room alone, but as two grown men, they couldn’t well follow her back, so in sheer helplessness, Mr. Linton had to ask Mrs. Lee to accompany her back to the room.
Since she received the task from Mr. Linton, Mrs. Lee didn’t dare to relax for a moment, constantly observing Lily Turner’s every move.
Bam!
The loud sound of the door opening startled Lily Turner back to her senses. She instinctively turned to look towards the door.
By this time, Easton Holmes had already walked briskly towards her, and upon seeing the tall figure approaching, she jumped up from the sofa and headed towards him.
"Husband..."
After calling him husband, Lily Turner could no longer control her emotions, and she rushed into Easton Holmes’ arms, bursting into tears.
Seeing the situation, Mrs. Lee tactfully left the room; as she walked out, she thoughtfully closed the room door.
Easton Holmes didn’t stop the woman in his arms from venting her emotions. He tightened his arms around her, silently holding her closer in his embrace.
For two consecutive days, seeing Lily Turner cry uncontrollably tore at Easton’s heart. He couldn’t let this situation continue to develop.
He was worried that if this continued, her emotional fluctuations would grow larger, which would not be good for her or the child in her womb.
This situation had to be stopped!
After a long time, Lily Turner’s sobbing gradually subsided. However, she continued to keep her head down, nestled against the man’s chest, refusing to lift it. The man didn’t force her, patiently waiting for her to lift her head on her own.
Easton Holmes didn’t have to wait long. Soon, she raised her head from his embrace, having composed herself by then.
After crying, she felt much calmer than before. At least her chest wasn’t as tight and uncomfortable as it had been earlier.
"Did Grandpa call you? Were you scared just now?" Lily was much clearer-headed now, recalling many things.
Easton Holmes didn’t answer her immediately. Instead, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead before speaking, "Can we avoid crying like this in the future? What if it gets passed on to our daughter?"
At this, a vision immediately popped into his mind: two women, one big and one small, clinging to him and crying.
Just the thought made him feel bad, not to mention experiencing it firsthand in the future.
No way! Absolutely not!
Lily Turner raised her hand and playfully punched Easton Holmes, retorting in dissatisfaction, "Daughter, daughter, how do you know it’s definitely a daughter? What if it’s a son? If he hears you calling for a daughter every day, he’ll definitely be upset and won’t pay attention to you. Don’t blame me when that happens."
