Chapter 1323: Chapter 1326: He Actually, Has Always Been Quietly Good to Her (Additional Chapter 2) Chapter 1323: Chapter 1326: He Actually, Has Always Been Quietly Good to Her (Additional Chapter 2) Aidan Lucas had left not long after, and those two women who came yesterday with Lily, claiming to be Cooper I and Cooper II, now entered carrying breakfast and ginger tea.

Unlike yesterday, they no longer just set down the food and left.

Instead, they considerately helped her up, escorted her to freshen up, and then assisted her to the small sofa to eat.

Under their watchful care, Lily ate her breakfast and drank her ginger tea, finally unable to hold back the words in her heart.

She looked at Cooper I and Cooper II and couldn’t help asking, “What’s with your faces?”

Cooper I forced a smile and said, “Don’t worry about us, Madam.”

“But your faces…” Lily extended her index finger, touching the corner of her own mouth, “Right here… seem a bit odd.”

It looked as if they had cramps, or as if they had had too much Botox, or something of the sort.

Cooper I and Cooper II immediately showed an expression of utter despair.

Cooper II sighed, “Madam, we’re fine, it’s just that we’re not used to smiling.”

Everyone in the Manor had been strictly trained by Aidan Lucas and were conditioned to answer whenever the Master had a question.

Clearly now, in the eyes of people like Cooper I and Cooper II, Lily was also regarded as their Master.

So when Lily asked, Cooper II did not hide anything.

“The Master said that with the Madam being pregnant, seeing our cold faces every day would make you unhappy. In order not to disturb the Madam’s mood, the Master requires each of us to smile when we see you.”

“However… most of us are not used to smiling, so…”
Cooper I timely added, “So, our smiles might look a bit unsightly, please get used to it gradually… We will practice more and it’ll get better in a few days.”

“He asked you to smile at me?” Lily was at a loss for words.

She would have never thought that Aidan Lucas would give such a bitter-sweet order to his subordinates.

Yet, it also implied that Aidan Lucas was actually concerned about her.

No matter how cold his exterior appeared, no matter the hurtful things he said, deep down he couldn’t let her go.

Her heart, which had just cooled, seemed to unwittingly warm up again.

“Madam, it’s not just that,” Cooper II added immediately when he saw the contemplative look on Madam’s face, “The Master also had all the books on Pregnancy Period, breastfeeding period, and parenting period purchased and sent to the study room. And this…”
Cooper II took out a cell phone, pulled up some information, and showed it to Lily.

“This is the electronic version, which we all must study as per the Master’s orders.”

“Yes, the Master did this because he is afraid that we lack experience and might not take good care of the Madam. He specifically instructed us to do this.”

These past two days, the Master, who already had a gloomy and cold temperament, was especially ill-tempered.

Cooper I and Cooper II had noticed and kept it in their hearts.

They faintly realized that the issue might lie with the Madam, and so they took this opportunity to subconsciously boost Aidan Lucas’s favorability.

“Okay, I understand,” Lily returned the cell phone and didn’t express much, simply asking them to help her back to bed.

She asked Cooper I to find her another blanket.

Wrapped in the blanket, she prepared to sleep.

After hearing what the two had said, Lily’s heart had already begun to waver.

But every time she thought of Aidan Lucas’s cold eyes, disdainful tone, and that mocking curve of his lips,
Many emotions were suppressed in her heart, and she dare not allow herself to burst forth with feelings again.

Better to not get involved emotionally, to stay stable.

Having learned from past experiences, she dared not let herself carelessly become sentimental any longer.

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Aidan Lucas returned to the Lu family’s mansion in another part of A City.

“Dad, you’re back! Where’s Mommy, why didn’t she come back with you?” As soon as Aidan Lucas stepped into the Main Hall, the chubby Lulu flung herself at him.
