C116 She Liked Author!

Author's words were like a bomb exploding in the Santana family.

The living room instantly became deathly silent.

Eligah's face was filled with shock and astonishment. The two emotions were alternating in his face, but in the end, they all turned into a cold, ashen face. "No, I don't agree!"

"You have not participated in my growth, so don't even think about restricting my current self!" Author snorted and stretched his leg out, wanting to leave this heavy and depressing home.

The strong and stubborn figure of Lee Shaochen made Eligah's face turn white.

He looked up at the gray sky with worry in his eyes. "What is going on? Why do I have to like a woman who is related to the Tillman family?"

It was not until Author drove his Ferrari out of the hospital that Eligah turned around and wanted to go up to the second floor.

The moment he turned around, he met a pair of cold eyes.

"Young... Young Master."

The man in the wheelchair had a cold expression on his chiseled face. He did not respond to Eligah's question. Instead, he reached out his hand and drove the car back to his room.

Ever since the car accident, the people of the Santana family rarely mentioned the Tillman family in front of him.

Because he could not hear him, he thought that he had forgotten about it. However, at this moment, there was a dull feeling in his chest, as if it was reminding him that some things had not happened yet. Even though some wounds had healed, the ugly scars were still there.

Lee Shaochen glanced at his legs and his eyes were as cold as water.

Suddenly, the entire room turned gloomy.

At the same time, the situation was not much better for Lydia, who had been stopped by Blain just as she left the school.

"Lydia, your auntie specially made you the braised pork that you love to eat today to bring you home." Blain smiled and opened the car door beside him. "There's also the boiled fish that you like."

Lydia's face was devoid of joy at Blain's flattery.

She knew that her second uncle and second auntie were people who would come to her house for no reason.

Presumably, he had spent so much effort to invite her home today for their precious daughter Viola.

Seeing through Blain's intentions, she didn't expose him. Instead, she wanted to see what tricks his good sister had up her sleeves to change the situation.

Lydia leaned down and sat in the car. She returned a sweet smile. "Uncle, Auntie, thank you for your hospitality, but I won't be polite."

"It's a family, so there's no need to be polite." Seeing her sit in the car, Blain was so happy that he could not close his mouth.

A family?

Lydia did not dare to compliment her.

Although she did not agree with it, she did not show it on her face. Instead, she smiled perfunctorily.

Before the car could even stop, Aunt Theresa greeted her with a smile, "Little Violet, you must be hungry. Come on, get out of the car and wash your hands. We can start eating right away."

In the past, when she had been ostracized by the Ellis family, this second aunt had always looked down on her.

Now that she was trying so hard to please him, Lydia was really not used to it. She even had goosebumps all over her body.

She endured the discomfort and followed the two of them into the living room.

When she passed by the garage, she accidentally saw a black luxury car that did not belong to the Ellis family.

She frowned and asked, "Uncle, aunt, are there any guests at home today?"

"Lydia, you don't even recognize your own car anymore?" A man suddenly chuckled from the front.

She could recognize such a familiar voice even without raising her head.

Why did he come?

She was puzzled for a second before quickly recalling her thoughts.

After all, there were many eyes staring at her at this moment. If she was not careful, she would attract unnecessary trouble.

Lydia looked up at the man opposite her and smiled sweetly, "Hubby, why are you here?"

"Uncle, aunt, it's hard to refuse such a generous invitation."

It was them again?

Lydia glanced at Blain and his wife from the corner of her eyes. She was getting more and more curious about what they were up to.

It seemed that she had to be patient and watch the show.

Lydia collected her thoughts and affectionately held the man's arm. "It's so difficult to eat a meal with Auntie every day. Today, you came here and you have red braised meat to eat. You should be satisfied."

"Yes."

With regards to her coquettishness, Reece's heart, which had been gloomy for a few days, suddenly brightened up.

In order to play along with her, he reached out and grabbed her hand to play with.

The two of them played along with each other, and Blain and his wife tactfully retreated.

Without the surveillance of outsiders, Lydia pulled her hand away from the man's palm.

Reece was speechless.

The two of them stood there, looking at each other awkwardly.

At this moment, Benny helped the old lady, Janie, downstairs. Lydia threw Reece to her father and grandma, while she ran to the second floor to see her mother, Eliza.

"Lydia, are you really not going to have a child with Reece?" After being intimate with her mother for a few minutes, the question of giving birth to a child was brought up again.

Lydia's smile froze on her face. "...It's starting again."

"Lydia, don't worry. Mom respects your choice, but... Mom just wanted to remind you that there are too many people who are coveting Reece. You have to watch him closely, like giving birth to a baby to consolidate your position."

Eliza kept looking at Lydia, hoping that her daughter would understand her painstaking efforts.

The more her mother cared about her and Reece, the more upset she felt.

The love between her and Reece was just a play, but there was a time for this play to end.

At that time, would her parents not be able to adapt to the change?

Thinking about how her parents would worry about her again, she couldn't help but feel upset.

However, she could only keep it a secret from her parents because of her engagement with Reece.

However, she could at least get her parents to know about the marriage beforehand.

At that time, her parents would not be too surprised.

She shrugged with disdain. "Whoever wants to be with me, I will not give birth to a baby just because of a man's heart. I am still young and my heart is not set yet. Who knows, I might fall in love with a classmate tomorrow."

Ever since her high fever, Eliza had noticed the change in her daughter.

Lydia had become more mature and less stubborn. Her love for Reece had also changed.

However, Eliza had never expected that the silly girl who used to view Reece as her life would actually say that she would fall in love with someone else.

Thinking about the scandal between Lydia and Author, Eliza felt a little uneasy.

She reached out to pull her hand and whispered, "Lydia, don't tell Mom that there's no outsider here. Do you really like that Author?"

Hearing this, the corner of Lydia's mouth twitched.

Mother, your thinking is too much. Why did you think of Author?

However, Lydia saw an opportunity in this misunderstanding.

Since she wanted to be the center of attention, she might as well take advantage of it. She didn't need to think of a reason to find out.

Lydia pretended to be guilty as she avoided Eliza's gaze. Her hands fidgeted in front of her chest, "No... No, Mom, don't think about it."

In the next second, her mother pulled her back. "Lydia, look at my eyes and say it again!"

"Mom..."

"Say it, are you interested in that Author?"

"... A little." Lydia pursed her lips and whispered.

Hearing this, Eliza's face turned pale with fright. It took her a long time to regain her composure.

The conversation between the mother and daughter happened to be heard by Reece, who had already walked out of the door.

The man's footsteps paused as if he had been stabbed in the heart.

As expected, she had fallen for the Author.
