Chapter 1308: Chapter 1311: The way he looked at her had no love anymore. Chapter 1308: Chapter 1311: The way he looked at her had no love anymore. “No, no, don’t…”
Lily’s eyes changed in a panic as she frantically grabbed Aidan Lucas, “You are one and the same, you can’t let him disappear…”
“Heh, why can’t I?” A flash of jealousy crossed Aidan Lucas’s sullen eyes.

“If he vanishes completely, you’ll be mine alone, and no one will compete with me for you again. Lily… I didn’t mind facilitating your happiness, it’s just a shame… you’ve disappointed me.”

He was even willing to sacrifice himself, just to make her happy.

But reality dealt him a cruel slap.

Lily’s pupils constricted sharply.

She could feel the sorrow in Aidan Lucas’s words, and also his despair.

These were not what she wanted, not at all…
She admitted that because of her preconceived notions, and because of those indelible memories, she had always placed the primary personality in the deepest recesses of her heart, as the most special existence.

But that did not mean she didn’t love the second personality.

She loved him too, and could feel his dedication to her.

To her, the two personalities were the same person, both were Aidan Lucas, the man she loved.

Even if she would get mad or argue with the second personality, it was just her temperament flaring up because of his overbearing actions.

But that did not mean she disliked him, or rejected him.

“Ethan, listen to me…” Even with her throat painfully constricted and tears falling uncontrollably, Lily insisted on telling him the real reason.

“I, I can explain…” she tried to speak, but her urgency and panic only led her to cough violently.

Earlier, Aidan Lucas had choked her, and the fiery pain in her throat made her attempt at explanation turn into a series of coughs.

Violent coughing strained her stomach.

Lily had just stopped coughing and was trying to catch her breath when a strong wave of nausea hit her, and she began to retch uncontrollably.

The gagging brought tears to her eyes.

Her vision blurred with relentless tears.

The woman, with red-rimmed eyes, appeared disheveled as she coughed and retched, her small frame trembling violently.

She looked like a broken leaf in a storm, helpless, pitiful, and alone.

So miserable, so pitiable.

In the past, Aidan Lucas might have been the first to hold her, soothing and comforting her gently, even frantically calling for the doctor, demanding a thorough checkup for his Lily.

But now.

The man simply stood at the bedside with a look of isolated coldness and even hatred, coldly watching her.

After a long while, when Lily finally suppressed the nausea and steadied her breathing,
An extremely cold and indifferent voice came from above her head.

“Have you finished pretending? Do you think… that I will still care about your little tricks now? Lily Redington, you can be foolish, but let me give you a piece of advice – it’s best not to manipulate me with such tactics anymore.”

Aidan Lucas looked down at her with a gaze so indifferent, as if he were despising the most insignificant ant.

“My patience has its limits.”

The way he looked at her was devoid of love.

His eyes were as cold as water, showing no warmth… no different from how he looked at anyone else.

She was no longer his Lily.

Lily never imagined that one day, Aidan Lucas would speak to her with such cruelty and coldness.

She slowly lifted her head, her red, peach blossom eyes looking at him.

Full of disbelief.

As her curled lashes trembled slightly, tears fell uncontrollably.

“You… don’t believe me?”

Did he think all her reactions just now were an act, all just to garner sympathy?
