Chapter 387
Once Lily arrived at the agreed-upon location, she discovered that it was a relatively high-end
clubhouse that was carefully maintained.
Once she mentioned her name, someone led her upstairs.
Although it was not a private room, the entire second floor was empty.
The restaurant was surrounded by glass windows, giving the restaurant a unique and romantic look.
People were playing the violins.
Melodious music filled her ears, making her feel very relaxed.
"Lilsy!"' Lisa called out, waving in Lily’s direction.
Even if Lisa had not called out, Lily would have spotted her.
After all, other than the waiter, Lisa was the only one on the whole floor.
"Lisa!"
Lily greeted her and walked over to hug Lisa.
When the two let go, Lisa explained smilingly, "Mr.Corden has something to attend to and will run a little
late.He asked me to apologize to you on his behalf."
"It's fine," Lily said with a smile.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Honestly, there's no need for him to do all this.He already thanked me for the other day."
"It's not about that.This is something he should do."
Lisa shook her head.
"You don't know Mike Corden's position among the Hyderland people.You saved his son.If he didn't
thank you personally, it would look bad on him when word gets out."
Lily kept quiet.
Reputation was such a complicated thing.
"By the way, is the child all right?" Lily asked.
Although he should be fine, she still wanted to ask for her peace of mind.
Lisa nodded.
"It's all thanks to you.I was panicking at that time.I had no clue what was happening to Nick.I was
nearly scared to death.Thank god you were there.If something happened to Nick, Mike would hate me."
"What does it have to do with you?"
Lily took a sip of lemonade and asked in confusion.
"Was it you that ordered the food he was allergic to?"
However, Lisa shook her head.
"No.Helen ordered those."
"You mean the child's mother?"
When Lily thought back to the woman from that day, she guessed that Helen and Mike had a fraught
relationship.But seeing that it was a family matter, she did not pry.
"Yeah." Lisa sighed.
Seeing that they had nothing to do, Lisa began to gossip.
"Helen wanted to use the child to try and fix their relationship.I understand where she's coming from.I,
too, thought it would be a good thing if it worked, but it seems I was wrong.Speaking of this, I'd like to
apologize on behalf of Helen for what she said to you."
Lily did not take it to heart.
After all, it was all in the past.
"It has nothing to do with you.I can see where she's coming from.Something almost happened to her
son because of her negligence.If she didn't find someone to blame, her plan to fix the relationship
would be even more difficult.Plus, even though it was wrong for her to do that, she was just concerned
about her child."
Lily shrugged.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough she could understand why Helen did what she did, she could not bring herself to forgive
Helen.
To Lily, it was immoral of Helen to blame an innocent bystander just because she feared her husband's
fury.
"No, you don't understand.She doesn't care about the child at all.All she cares about is herself.I now
see her for who she truly is."
“ Huh?"
Lisa looked indignant as she explained, "If she really cared about the child, she would know his
allergies.When something happened to Nick, the first thing she cared about was not what was
happening but whether Mike would hate her because of it.She knows she would lose her only chance
to get close to Mike without Nick.Nick has no place in her heart."
Lisa had utterly seen through Helen after the incident the other day.
The sympathy Lisa had for Helen no longer existed, and she had even cut ties with Helen.
"Maybe it just slipped her mind at that moment, or she just doesn't understand how her son is.From
what I see, she and Mr.Corden don’t have a good relationship.They might even be divorced?"
Lily initially did not want to pry, but the conversation had already reached this point.
