Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love-Chapter 787 - 790: Meeting (4)
Chapter 787: Chapter 790: Meeting (4)
Lily was silent.
She thought, that perhaps, this was the attitude Aidan Lucas should have towards her now.
His eyes, they had already revealed everything.
Her throat, suddenly felt as if it was choked by something.
It seemed that apart from breathing, her body was unable to exhibit any other reaction.
She stood there, her body stiff.
...
All of her blood was frozen into ice by the alienation, indifference, and slight displeasure in his eyes.

At that moment, Benjamin Lucas IX walked up to her again, blocking her lingering gaze.
“You’re the last one. It’s not your turn yet. If you don’t want your eyes gouged out, it’s best not to glance around. Mr. Cooper is not the sort of person that people like you can observe casually.”
Over the last few years, Mr. Lucas’s temper has become stranger and stranger.
Let alone touch him, sometimes when he was in a bad mood, any woman who dared to give him a lovelorn look would cause his displeasure.
“…” Lily fell silent and lowered her head.
Aidan Lucas clearly saw her but pretended not to.
He even showed a look of disgust.
She simply couldn’t digest this sudden ‘surprise’.
With her head lowered, Lily forced herself to regulate her breathing.
She was too deeply affected by Aidan Lucas.
After four years of separation, she thought she could face him calmly again.
In these four years, she had trained incessantly, constantly improving herself. She thought she had developed an invincible heart.
Yet, she didn’t expect that all her defences would collapse the moment she saw Aidan Lucas.
Even if she knew she should leave immediately, her feet were as heavy as if they were filled with lead, standing firmly on the spot, unable to move.
She needed to stay calm, she needed to be composed.
Lily lowered her eyes, with which she tried to hide the turmoil in her heart.
Seeing her head lowered obediently, Benjamin Lucas IX thought she understood his words, so he said no more.
He introduced the standing women to the three men according to previous rules, “These three gentlemen are the director, screenwriter, and male protagonist Colin Cloud of this film. Soon, you will act with Colin based on the script you draw. If there are no issues, we will start immediately.”
The director, screenwriter, and Colin Cloud were all sitting on the same sofa.
When Benjamin Lucas IX introduced them, he only mentioned their identities.
He didn’t introduce Aidan Lucas, who was sitting alone at the top, to these actresses at all.
But even then, as long as the opportunity arose, those women would sneak glances at Aidan Lucas.
Even though sitting next to them was the rising heartthrob Colin Cloud of recent years. But Aidan Lucas’s peerlessly handsome cold face was impossible to ignore.
Compared to him, even Colin seemed a little inferior.
The auditions soon began.
The first girl stepped forward and, after a brief self-introduction, began to act with Colin Cloud, who played the male protagonist, according to the script she drew.
The others were either nervously memorizing their lines or observing the auditions.
Only Lily was keeping her head low, clenching the script tightly in her hands, remaining still.
Nobody knew what she was thinking.
Nobody knew the internal struggle she was undergoing.
She saw Aidan Lucas!
It took Lily some time to recover from her initial shock.
Yeah, she had seen Aidan Lucas on the first morning she came back!
She suppressed her rapidly beating heart rate, reminding herself that she needed to stay calm.
The words her mother said when she was leaving still echoed in her ears.
Lily knew that it was their concern for her.
But from start to finish, she never revealed the truth to her parents and David Redington.
She… she lied to them.
