Lily’s Pov
G4
Andrew’s expression was priceless at this moment and if I wasn’t scowling and massaging my wrist where he had been holding tightly before I would have been laughing
“I’m sorry… your wife?” Andrew stuttered, staring at Lance who finally came into view.
I scowled, “You took your sweet time, hubby, why couldn’t you arrive sooner?”
Lance smiled at me sheepishly before kissing my forehead, “I’m sorry, love, I got held up.”
“I… I don’t understand what is happening right now, Lily?” Andrew asked me, genuinely confused.
I smiled, “You did say I’m a married woman, Andrew, so why are you acting so surprised?”
“A married woman, yes, married to me!” Andrew snapped.
my woman!”
Lance frowned, “I won’t have you raising your voice at my
My heart fluttered in my chest as I started feeling that familiar warm feeling as I butterflies.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Walter, I know you invited me here to give me a contract but if it’s at the expense of my wife then I decline,” Andrew said.
I chuckled mockingly. “Aw, so noble.”
Lance stared at me with a frown, “Honey, what’s he talking about? I’m not giving you any contract, my wife was
the one who requested I specially invite y
you.”
Andrew was surprised as he stared at me, “Lily, please tell me what’s going on here. What game are you
playing?”
“This is my husband, Andrew, there’s no game here. I told you I was done with you,” I smiled
*Then why did you have him invite me here? To humiliate me further? I haven’t even signed the divorce p
papers so
I will take him to court! You’re mine and you’ve been mine for three years!” Andrew snapped.
I felt Lance tense up beside me. I knew that after tonight he might probably regret marrying me but I needed to see what I had arranged this event through.
“I called you here, Andrew, so you’d see how naive you’ve been for the past seven months since Kira arrived,” I
said.
“What does Kira have to do with this? I told you I’ll send her away if you just come back with me. Are you doing
this to make me jealous, Lily, because it’s working!” Andrew snapped.
I scoffed, “You think everything is about you, Andrew,” then I caught sight of Kira coming toward us and I smiled,
“Couldn’t stay away for long, huh?”
Kira came into view and stood beside Andrew, a frown on her face.
“What’s going on? You and Andrew were taking so much time I wanted to see what’s happening,” Kira said in her pretending voice
“What’s happening is that there’s no contract and Lily got her new husband to invite us,” Andrew spat bitterly.
I smiled, “I’m glad you’re finally accepting the fact that he’s my husband.”
Then I stared at Kira who had a confused expression on her face.
“This is my husband, Lance Walter,” I said to her.
I saw the angry look that crossed her eyes immediately before she masked it with fake concern.
“That’s impossible, Lily. Why would Lance marry someone like you? Especially when you’re still married to
Andrew who is trying to make things right,” Kira hissed.
“Why a are you so surprised, Kira? That I can get a husband without having to always drug them, seduce them, and ruin their marriage like you always do?” I questioned Kira.
I saw the panicked look that flashed across Kira’s face as she chuckled nervously.
“Have you had anything to drink, Lily? You’re spouting nonsense,” Kira said.
Andrew stared at Kira, curiously. “What is she talking about, Kira?”
Kira snapped, “How should I know? She’s the one talking crazy!”
Lance frowned, “Don’t speak to my wife in such a tone!*
“What does she have on you, Mr. Walter? Did she promise to give you a good time? Is she fucking you? You can drop the act now because we all know someone like you can’t marry a nobody like Lily,” Kira snapped
Lance stared at her with shock written all over his face while I chuckled.
“A nobody?” Lance asked, scoffing, “Lily Wellington is the CEO of The Wellington Empire. She’s the heiress to Wellington Company and my bride who I threw this wedding party for. You should show her respect or else you’ll regret it!”
me
Andrew and Kira seemed shocked by his outburst and I smiled, kissing his cheeks and happy he was defending
“Thank you, hubby”
“Heiress of Wellington Empire?” Andrew asked shocked, “How is that possible, Lily? I’ve known you for three years and you’re just… Well… you.”
her.”
Lance scoffed, “She gave up everything to be with you and you threw it right back in her face. You don’t deserve
Andrew shook his head, “No, that’s not possible. Lily is just Lily. How can she be the heiress?”
“Of course, she’s not, Andrew. That’s just a big fat lie!” Kira snapped
“Do you think everyone lies like you, Kira?” a voice said behind
US
I watched Kira’s body tense up at the sound of the voice as a smile curved on my lips.
“Now, it begins,” I grinned.
