Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love

Chapter 745: Chapter 748: The Reddington family would only be more unreasonable than Larry Scott

He wanted to walk over and sit next to her, but he saw Lily Gray flinch.

She was afraid of him.

Moreover, if not for her pregnancy making her uncomfortable, she might have jumped off the sofa the moment he drew close.

David Redington lowered his eyes, hiding the bitterness in them.

He sighed, fearing Lily would object, so he could only sit on another sofa.

“Lily, Annabella is my person. I asked her to come here without any other intentions. I just want her to take care of you since you’re alone abroad and pregnant.”

Lily Gray didn’t appreciate David’s kindness and remained defensive, “If she’s supposed to take care of me, why did you have her lie to me? If you really have no other motives, why hide your identity?”

David only felt the bitterness in his mouth spreading.

Facing Lily’s questioning peach blossom eyes, he found himself at a loss.

He used to think that those eyes resembled Bella Scott’s, which disgusted him.

But now, his impression of Bella was long blurry.

Seeing those reddened, vigilant peach blossom eyes, he only felt an aching pain in his heart.

Lily was Lily; he no longer thought she looked like someone else.

To him, Lily’s identity was no longer simply Bella’s daughter.

His hatred towards Lily had already been put aside.

He only wanted to treat her like a sister, just his younger cousin who needed his care and protection.

“Lily.” David tried his best to make his voice sound smooth and gentle. “The reason I didn’t tell you is because I knew you would be guarded against my approach. I saw you running away in the hospital. At that moment, I recognized you.”

“I wanted to chase after you immediately, but seeing how hurriedly you left, I knew you didn’t want to see me.”

David held his forehead with his long fingers, rubbing his brow.

He looked dejected.

“Now you know.” Lily Gray remained unmoved.

Hearing her resistance, David forced out a bitter smile.

“Yes, I know. So I didn’t dare to get close to you. I could only silently protect you. Once I found out you were seeking treatment in the hospital, I immediately inquired about your condition. When I learned you were pregnant with twins, I felt happy and worried for you.”

“I was afraid that my presence would disturb you. But after investigating your situation, I didn’t feel at ease letting outsiders care for you. So, I arranged with the agent to send Annabella to be with you.”

“Huh.” Lily Gray sneered without gratitude.

“Don’t make it sound so grand. You investigate me privately and secretly send someone to my side, playing me for a fool. Such actions may not be just out of concern. Who knows if you and your family have any other hidden motives?”

Even Larry Scott still hated her and Bella.

She didn’t believe that the Reddington family could let them go.

“Also, as soon as I found something wrong with Annabella, you showed up. David, don’t tell me that you’ve been lurking around me all these days.”

Thinking about how her every move had been watched by her enemies,

Lily Gray felt a chill down her spine.

She had been too careless.

When she found out that the hospital was controlled by Reddington Group, she should have left immediately.

Larry Scott was just the dead girl’s uncle. The Reddington family members were all blood relatives of that child.

If they found out… Lily Gray looked at David in horror.

His head was lowered, his hand on his forehead.

His long fingers concealed his eyes, making it impossible to see his real thoughts.
