In the dim luxurious master bedroom, the woman's screams pierced Lily Gray's ears and made her feel nauseous.
Knowing that Austin Lucas might return to A City today, she had dressed up and rushed back to their new room from the Lucas family's mansion.
Unexpectedly, what she saw after entering the door was this scene.
Her husband, whom she had only been married to for half a year, was rolling around in bed with another woman on their wedding bed that they hadn't had the chance to sleep on together.
Austin Lucas, how could he do such a thing...
Although she was cursing the man in her heart, Lily Gray did not directly burst in and catch the cheating couple.
After all, she still felt guilty towards him. Although her feelings for him were not completely pure at first, she could not deny that the time they spent together before marriage had left her with a favorable impression of Austin Lucas.
Her father had died early, and her mother had also passed away not long ago. She had thought that the man in the room was the one she could entrust her life to, but she didn't expect...
Tears uncontrollably streamed out of her eyes, and her hands trembled slightly.
"Who?"
Her finger accidentally touched the metal door handle, making a very faint "click" sound.
The sound was soft, but it still caught the vigilant Austin Lucas's attention.
Not knowing why, although she should have walked in righteously to accuse the cheating couple, at this moment, she chose to run towards the condominium's exit.
Hearing the footsteps outside the door, Austin Lucas immediately became alert.
"Austin, could it be outside..."
The woman on the bed, whose activities had been interrupted, climbed onto Austin Lucas's broad shoulders with a sense of grievance and rubbed against his arm coquettishly.
"It must be her, she's so timid." The tone of contempt carried deep disgust for the woman.
Austin Lucas had handsome and sharp features, and his smile could make people infatuated. However, his cold eyes when angry could make people keep their distance.
The woman clinging to him was deeply attracted by a man like him.
Why should such a perfect man be cheapened by Lily Gray? She was superior to that stupid woman in every way, and even if Austin belonged to Lily Gray, she would snatch him away.
"What should we do? She's already seen us together... if she threatens you with this, then your..."
"It's good that she saw it. I came back this time to find an excuse to get rid of her anyway. Don't worry about her... let's continue."
As for Lily Gray's whereabouts at this moment, Austin Lucas didn't care at all.

Lily Gray rushed out of the elevator condominium, desperately running towards the stairwell.
She didn't dare take the elevator, her emotions hadn't been sorted out, and if Austin Lucas gave chase, she didn't know how to face him.
Descending a few floors along the stairwell, and not hearing any more noise, she finally dried her tears and exited the stairwell.
Here, she didn't know which floor she was on. But no matter which floor it was, just going down to the elevator would do.
The tears had stopped, but her vision was getting even blurrier. Lily Gray ruefully realized that her contact lenses seemed to have fallen out during her hurried crying.
She was used to wearing black-framed glasses, but today she had specifically changed to contact lenses because of something Austin Lucas said. But she never expected such an unforeseeable tragedy to happen.
Where was the elevator?
During the time when the contact lenses just fell out, her vision became even worse than when she was not wearing glasses. The world, which was originally clear, had become blurred in Lily Gray's eyes.
On their wedding night, Austin Lucas left her alone to go abroad due to urgent business.
Since then, Lily Gray had moved into the Lucas family mansion to serve her in-laws. As for this hotel-style condominium that was being used as their new home, this was only her second time coming here since their wedding day.
She could only search for the elevator door based on her memory and general impression.
Not far away, there appeared to be a square door frame that looked like the gold elevator door frames in this condominium.
Lily Gray quickened her pace and reached the elevator door to search left and right for the elevator button.
After fumbling for a while, she touched a shape similar to the elevator button and pressed it lightly. Sure enough, the elevator button lit up.
However, after lighting up, it suddenly darkened again.
She hurriedly pressed it twice more, and the elevator door in front of her finally opened.
Lily Gray looked up happily, only to see a nearly naked, blurry male figure in her line of sight.
"You're late." The man said, grabbing her wrist and pulling her into the elevator.
[Special note: The male lead is physically and mentally clean. Due to the plot requirements, this cannot be made clear at the start, but you will understand later in the story!]
