A-fter John and Jack left, Wayne family was quiet again. The two kids' biological clock was very punctual, and around nine o'clock, they had basically started yawn. Lily knew that Edwards was not in a good mood after seen John and Jack, so she took over the work of coaxing them to sleep.

She held a children's story book and sat in the middle of the bed between the two small beds. Under the soft light, two pairs of black, beautiful, big eyes blinked, while Lily's voice paused, and with a light rhythm to her voice, it made the two little fellows immerse themselves in the story. George, on the other hand, quietly listened to the story, seriously thought, but Emma was different. What she doesn't understand should be asked clearly, like a bird.

When Lily was telling the third story, she discovered that her son was already asleep. His daughter's little head was shaking, and she was trying her best not to fall asleep, but when she heard Lily stop telling stories, she immediately woke up. "Mummy, continue telling, I'm still listening."

Lily was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. This little thing's willpower was truly good, if she were to focus on studying, she would not worry about it, but it was a pity, her daughter's concentration in studying was far worse than her son's. She would worry about it in the future.

When Lily finished telling the story, Emma became completely sleepy and unknowingly, she fell asleep.

Lily tucked the two little fellows in bed, turned off the light, and walked out of the room.

When Lily returned to her bedroom, she realized that Edwards was not there. Thus, she looked in the direction of the study room, but there was no light.

Lily could only walk towards the balcony in the end and discover that the balcony door had been opened to the side. A cold wind blew in from the outside.

She shivered a little and wrapped her thin robe tightly around her.

Stretching out half of her head, she saw a tall figure standing in front of the balcony guard.

He was not wearing a warm coat. He was still wearing a suit. Some snowflakes that were floating over landed on his broad shoulders.

A flash of red light could be seen. It turned out that he was standing here alone, smoking a cigarette.

Lily frowned slightly. Standing outside in the cold to smoke, it was really easy to freeze.

Therefore, she had no choice but to walked behind him in the cold wind and said softly, "You can smoke inside too. Don't stand here and enjoy the cold wind. Come in."

Edwards suddenly turned around, and saw the little girl standing behind him, his beautiful eyes stared blankly for a moment. In the next second, he directly extended his hand out and grabbed her wrist: "Don't come out!"

Lily realized that the man's hand that was holding her own was still warm. She felt sweet.

Sure enough, Edwards had already thrown the cigarette in his hands to the side. Very quickly, it was extinguished by the cold wet floor.

Lily was almost forcefully pulled into the balcony by the man, and in the next second, the man closed the door, locking the cold behind him. His palms were warm, but a chill ran through him.

Lily was frozen to the point that her face was pale, but she still asked him softly: "Are you cold? Hurry up and take a bath."

"Well, let's go. Are the children asleep?" Edwards nodded, and asked gently.

"They are Sleeping. It's getting harder and harder to get rid of them now." Lily smiled with sweetness.

Edwards gently caressed her long hair and said gently: "It's really hard on you. The older the child, the more difficult it may be to manage."

"That's not a big deal. Compared to you, I know how easy it is." Lily's beautiful eyes flashed across his face with a pained expression. "I can tell that you're not in a good mood!"

As the two entered the bedroom, Edwards reached out and unbuttoned his suit, then casually took off his jacket and placed it on the back of a sofa at the side. Only then did he turn around, passing both of his arms through Lily's slender waist and embracing her lightly from behind: "Yes, my mood has indeed been depressed recently. Some things, obviously want to be solved quickly, but they can't be realized for various reasons."

"Can I help you?" Lily lightly leaned into his embrace, feeling that Edwards was deliberately hiding something from her, not wanting her to know.

"Lily, taking care of the two children is the greatest help to me!" Edwards said gently, his thin lips lightly imprinting a mark on her forehead: "For this matter, I need to make my own decision. Don't worry about me, I know what to do."

"There's nothing I can do not to worry!" Lily sighed lightly, "Are we really going to get engaged the day after tomorrow? I feel a little uneasy in my heart. If I feel that I'm in too much of a hurry, what kind of trouble would happen again?"

Edwards patted her back lightly, as if comforting her: "Don't worry, there won't be any trouble, I will get someone to watch over!"

Of course, Lily believed that he had the ability to complete all of tasks. She smiled: "Perhaps I was just overthinking it, the more I care about one thing, the more I would think about some random things." "It's fine, just don't think about it." Edwards laughed lightly; his eyes full of love.

Lily let out a light breath, and told him the matter that had been suppressed in her heart, "Tonight, Jack Wayne's eyes are always on me, truly hateful."

"I saw it too. If it wasn't for my grandparents' present, I really want to find someone to dig out those pig eyes of his!" Edwards's tone turned cold, as though this Jack Wayne was doing this on purpose, or was unable to control his eyes. No matter what, Edwards was still very angry.

His wife to be stared at so wantonly by another man in his own home was simply the greatest humiliation to him.

"How could he be that kind of person?" Lily was also sick of him.

"He loved to steal from me before, he wouldn't be thinking of taking you away, right? He's too ambitious." What made Edwards angry was the way Jack Wayne looked at Lily, but it didn't seem like he was playing around, rather it was filled with seriousness.

It was precisely because he was seriously sizing up Lily that Edwards's heart became even more uneasy.

"Don't worry. Even if I die, I will absolutely not fall in love with him." In order to let Edwards feel at ease, Lily made such a ruthless oath.

"Of course, I know. I have never doubted you. Lily, don't think about this anymore. I will make him regret it." Edwards was afraid that Lily would fall into the shadow of this matter, so he held her small face in his hands and comforted her with warm eyes.

Lily nodded her head: "I can stop thinking, and I don't want to waste time thinking about it!"

Edwards chuckled lightly, as he became slightly happy, "Alright, then let's not talk about him. I will dig out those eyes of his for the dogs to eat sooner or later."

"Forget it, this is illegal. Besides, your grandparents would definitely not let you do that. I'm already very happy that you have the intention to protect me!" Lily was amused by his words, and in her heart, she was satisfied.
