Other women would only flatter him or pretend to like him.
Winning his favor was just their shortcut to curry favor with Aidan Lucas.
Just like Milly Gray, who appeared nice to him on the surface, but actually looked at him as if he were a hen that could lay golden eggs.
He was merely a tool for their competition for affection, and although Ben Lucas was young, he saw it all very clearly.
But Aunt Lily was completely different from these women.
When she looked at him, her beautiful peach-blossom eyes held a full measure of tender love.
Even when she was with the old man, her care for him didn't diminish one bit.
In fact, she was unusually biased in his favor.
The 'trouble' other women avoided became a treasure in her eyes.
If she were truly just an ordinary woman with no connection to him, such behavior would make no sense at all.
