At that moment, the cell phone rang.
It was a call from David Redington.
Lily Gray collected her complicated emotions, took a deep breath, and answered the phone.
"Hello..."
As soon as she spoke, a man's deep and pleasant voice came through the phone.
"So, were you touched by my confession just now?" David's voice sounded very relaxed and comfortable, not at all bothered by the rumors.
"David." Lily Gray didn't want to beat around the bush and said solemnly, "I have to apologize to you seriously. There's something I think I need to tell you."
She could clearly express her feelings to David or anyone else.
Yet, when facing Ethan Wilson, she always felt like she couldn't speak up.
This was probably the difference in behavior when facing ordinary people and the one you like.
She could say even the hardest words to outsiders.
But when the person she needed to explain herself to was Ethan Wilson, many words seemed to get stuck in her throat.
