After taking a few steps, Zero found that Lily was right in front of him. Her arms crossed over her chest as she looked at him unhappily.
For a moment, Zero panicked.
Did she hear?
About the marriage contract?
"Zero, that is your mother," Lily said to him.
Zero looked at her in bewilderment.
Yes, that is his mother. That has been proven. So what was her point?
Seeing the genuine puzzlement on Zero's face, Lily shook her head and sighed, explaining, "No matter how upset you are with her, you do not talk to your mother like that."
Zero frowned, "Do you know what she did?"
"I don't know, but it does not matter," Lily replied, "No matter what, you do not speak to your mother like that."
Lily reached out to him, touching his arm, saying, "Even if you want her to do something, you say it nicely. Not like earlier. It was as if you were talking to your subordinates! Even then, you should be nicer a bit."
Zero struggled.
