StarNovel
Chapter 1271
Alexander initially did not catch on to what Edward was talking about and realized later on that Olivia
got jealous and threw a tantrum. Although Edward looked like a cat had scratched his face, he seemed
to have enjoyed it.
Alexander told him that he deserved it for having no self-respect, but at the same time, he could not
help but think that Lily had never gotten jealous of him, not even once.
When Edward touched his scratched face with a smug grin, he told Alexander, "She did this because
she cares about me!’’
That made Alexander wonder if Lily did not care about him according to Edward’s logic.
'That's impossible! We've been through much together, and if anyone claimed that Lily doesn't care
about me, I wouldn’t believe it. However, something seems amiss, doesn’t it?'
Like now, a mosquito had left a bite on his neck, exactly where a woman might get suspicious, but Lily
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas sure the culprit was a mosquito.
'Lily has spent almost every day with Olivia, so why is her way of thinking so different? Why didn't she
suspect it was a hickey?'
After receiving the precious plant, Lily was so happy that she spent a long time studying it in the small
garden before returning to the house. She passed the playroom, saw Alexander playing with their son,
said hi to them, and left to take a bath.
Since Lily was covered in dirt, she did not want to hug Galen and decided to keep him company after
getting cleaned up.
She filled the bathtub with warm water and immersed herself in it. She put a few drops of self-made
essential oil in the water, and her body soon relaxed as the aroma filled the air.
Lily thought of agarwood and could hardly contain her joy. She picked up her phone to call Olivia,
wanting to tell her about it. The phone rang for quite a while before Olivia answered, sounding
somewhat nasally as if she was suppressing it.
“Hello...”
Lily was excited and did not notice the woman sounding strange, rattling, ‘ Liv, I got my hands on
something cool. Guess what it is?"
"What is it?" Olivia asked.
"Take a guess!"
"I have no idea. Must be some precious raw materials? You will only consider them as something cool.”
Lily held up a palmful of water and laughingly said, "You know me best! I received a pot of Agarwood.
Agarwood! I tried to get my hands on one for so long, and I finally got it today. Although it's not a big
one, I think I can grow it," she said gleefully.
"Agarwood? But it’s not suitable for the weather here, isn’t it?”
"I thought so too, but if someone could grow it and have it sent to me as a gift, I think there must be a
way. Besides, there are methods to adjust the temperature, sunlight, and moisture. I'm going to give it a
try!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yes, you do that."
Lily finally sensed that something was off. "Liv, what are you doing? Why do you sound so listless?"
Olivia’s voice grew much livelier and louder all of a sudden. "What?! No! I’m listening. Carry on. We're
talking about agarwood, after all."
"Yes, are you not happy with it?"
'Whenever I brought any precious plants or rare materials to the studio, she would be thrilled. However,
Liv's reaction today seems a bit lukewarm.'
"I’m happy. Of course, I am! Are you bringing it to the studio tomorrow?"
"Don't be silly! This is such a precious plant. I only feel safe if I take care of it in my garden and not
leave it out of sight!"
As Lily finished, she heard a low grunt from the other end, obviously not made by Olivia. 'Is that a
man?'
Taken aback, Lily pulled her phone away to look at it. She thought about it and asked, "Liv, is Edward
beside you now?"
