Aidan Lucas was shocked by Lily Gray's words.
Before coming here, he had thought about it.
If Lily Gray questioned him about the rumors with Hannah Ford, how would he respond?
He couldn't tell her about "that person's" matter.
Because he knew Lily too well.
If Lily Gray knew about the threats he faced, she would choose to bravely stand by his side, rather than cowardly hide for her own safety.
But he couldn't risk it.
He had confidence that he could defeat that person.
But he wasn't confident that he could protect Lily and her child at the same time.
So, when Hannah Ford voluntarily stepped forward to become Mrs. Lucas.
He had already decided to use Hannah Ford to divert attention.
"Lily..." Aidan Lucas was a bit excited as he pressed the woman's head into his embrace.
"Believe me, I will never let you down. About Hannah Ford's matter..."
"No, you don't have to say it." Lily Gray suddenly reached out and stopped him with her slender fingers over his thin lips.
