"Madam Lucas, you have misunderstood. I married Lily because I love her." He said while looking straight into Madam Lucas's scrutinizing gaze.
Deep love can be seen in his unrippled black pupils, as if just mentioning Lily Gray could move his heart.
"Really?" Madam Lucas's doubtful gaze swept across his face.
"Of course." Aidan Lucas nodded, "Half a month ago, at your birthday banquet, Lily was drugged by her ex-husband. That night, she and I got together."
"What? Lily was drugged by her ex-husband! That Caleb Lucas IV actually did such a disgraceful thing!" Madam Lucas slammed the table as her thoughts returned to the incident where Caleb Lucas IV's lover rushed to the old manor to expose their affair.
Could it be that their target for the expose was her own great-grandson?
Aidan Lucas observed Madam Lucas's reaction and deeply felt her love for Lily Gray. Fortunately, choosing this woman to marry was indeed the best choice.
