Why do I feel guilty?
I haven't really done anything wrong from start to finish.
With that thought, I lifted my gaze towards them. After Lilliana threw herself into his arms, he hesitated for a moment, seemingly uncomfortable yet not wanting to hurt Lilliana's feelings.
He gently pushed her away, maintaining his usual indifferent tone, "Slow down, okay?"
"But I missed you." Lilliana's eyes blinked as she looked up at him, her pale cheeks betraying her caution, much like a delicate little bunny. "You left so early yesterday, it's been almost twenty hours since I last saw you."
Counting the hours, huh?
I reined in my thoughts, smiling slightly, just as Gregory's eyes met mine again. Seeing me calm and composed, without a hint of emotion, seemed to irritate him.
He let go of Lilliana's hand and strolled over with a roguish smile, greeting the two elder ladies before lazily taking a seat on the sofa across from me.
Adah scolded him lightly, "You rascal, could you not take a little more care of Lilliana? She just got back..."
"Oh come on, what are you saying? Lilliana's at her own home, does Greg really need to babysit her?"
Ramona chimed in with a chuckle, glancing at me with a meaningful look. "Besides, Greg should just look after Lilliana like a sister from now on. They haven't spent much time together over the years, so there's not much of a bond. We're not sticking to old-fashioned ways here. Let the kids decide for themselves when it comes to their feelings."
I was taken aback. That was quite unexpected.
Adah, catching the implication, was even more surprised, "What do you mean? Are you suggesting they break off the engagement? Greg has waited for Lilliana for so many years..."
Obviously, Gregory had discussed this with Ramona directly.

We would wish that she doesn't get back with Bryant but at the end the author will come up with some lame excuses to make him a saint n they will end up together.....
Please update...
If she had left when she was supposed to she wouldn't have gone through all this. I hope she doesn't get back with Bryant....
After all this plz don't tell me she gets back with that scumbag Bryant and accepts the Myers family....
