Just now, she was barely able to lean on David Redington's arm as they walked in front of people.
Now, however, even the strength to support her was gone all at once.
Her legs go soft, and Lily Gray's fragile body seems to be sliding down.
A powerful hand suddenly covers her waist.
Pulling her entire body away from David Redington and directly into a warm, broad embrace.
Out of instinct, Lily Gray's first reaction is to push the other person away.
As she turns to the side, preparing to push the person away with both hands, that person's hand sneaks a squeeze at her waist.
That familiar electric sensation instantly flows throughout her body.
"Aidan Lucas…" Lily Gray's eyes light up.
Not waiting for the man to speak, she raises herself on her tiptoes and wraps her arms around his neck.
Aidan Lucas picks up the short woman who can only cling to him.
"Wifey, I'm back." He whispers into her ear with a light kiss, his icy gaze falling on David Redington's seemingly mocking face.
