While Perry and the other party were seriously fighting, Fred Colton sneaked an attack on the other party, that he fainted, then he pulled Perry to escape. But Perry yank his hand away from Fred and said, Lee is still in the..... Fred cut him anxiously and said, no is too late, Miss Asienwegher is already in their hands and we don't have much time, all our people have been subdued, in fact these people are merciless and rude. They've killed many of Perry's people.
Perry hesitate before running into the sea as Derek men chased after them, seeing that they've jumped into the sea they stop by the sea, just then Leo rushed to the side of the Sea and have his eyes fixed in the water as if he can see what is happening deep under the water. He was seething with furry at what Perry did to their little mate, when they follow her scent to the room where she was kept, not only did Perry bound her hands up, he impregnated her.
And now, he only want to gouge Perry's throat out with his claws. The truth is, he didn't even know how to face his mate, and not because he dislikes her, but her lifeless eyes is breaking his heart. He blame himself for delaying her rescue, if not because of their carelessness, if only they've thought about this and secretly protect Elsie, knowing how much she meant to Lilian, all these incidents would have not happen. As he was been engrossed in his regrets, he received a mind link signal and realized that Derek want to talk to him through mind link.
So he connected to his and Derek's mind link string, and listen to what Derek is saying, so he turned around and run towards the jet and the three jets soon take off and head back to Atherton, because Lilian pleaded with him to take her there, so Derek agreed. And by the time they got to Lilian's villa in Atherton, Elsie was in the office, and worked overtime, because she has to take over Lilian's office. So Derek decided to leave Leo to stay with Lilian in the name of keeping her company.
Lilian didn't talk much and only nod and gently smoothen it hair and look at Derek calmly and said, thank you for saving me again. I believe that with all that you saw today, you wouldn't like someone like me, but if there is anything that I can do to repay you, please....... Derek cut her words short by placing a finger on her lips, which send sparks on them, and they look deep into each other's eyes unblinkingly.
Derek's face slowly approach hers, until his lips were an inch to hers, he pause and breathing warm air on her face. Lilian didn't try to evade his advances, which is a way of showing her consent. So Derek did not hold in anymore and slowly bring his lips to hers and gently kiss her as both wide their eyes open by the sensation feelings that comes from the kiss. Lilian never felt this kind of sweetness from a common kiss, even when Perry will kiss and romance her, his touches and kisses never have these effects on her and she never had this kind feelings before, so what is different? Or is it because she is been forced to do it with Perry? She is surprised that Derek doesn't seem to mind about what happened.
Lilian come to her senses when Derek's kiss become so intense, then she slowly close her eyes and accept his kiss. Besides she stated in the note she scribbled, that if he can save her, she will agree with his terms even if it means to be his lover, she felt that it better than being with Perry. Derek felt that she's distracted and her mind is not in the kiss, he reluctantly stop and look at her dotingly and said in a hoarse voice, Lily listen, no matter what happened to you, I will never dislike you.
So there is no such thing, that I don't like you, okay? Lilian couldn't help her palpitates heart beats and look at him, with a sad look as she start sobbing and shake her head and said, Derek please don't do this, there are many excellent women out there, beside I'm.... Derek cut her anxiously and said, I know that you're pregnant Lily, but I don't care, it's you that I like and I will take care of you and your child.
Lilian look at him in shock and surprisedly, as she keep wondering why must it be her? Derek is handsome and such a great guy, that every woman would bow and crawl in order to get him, but why did he insisted to be with her, and he even left his company just to find her. It must have taken him almost two months looking for her. Derek begin to panic seeing her lost in thought and anxiously grab her by her two upper arm and shake her, Lily are you listening to me? Lilian snap out of her reveries and look at him, as she blink her long eyelashes, obviously she was not listening.
Derek take a deep breath and said trying to sound calm, I read your letter but I want you to know that, even without you promised, I would have still look for you, because I felt that it's my responsibility to take care of you. So you don't have to repay me and I don't want you to accept me because of that I will....... It's Lilian's turn to place a finger on his lips this time around, and said calmly but with determination in her beautiful eyes, don't say anymore. It's my decision to be with you Derek, as long as you still want me. And as for this pregnancy, she place her palm on her lower abdomen with many emotions and continue, I won't keep this child. Derek look surprised and ask her worriedly, Lily are you sure about this? It's also your child. Lilian nod determinedly and said, yes I don't want it, as long as it carries Perry's blood.
The whole place was so quiet for a moment, before Derek nod and said, I will support whatever you decide to do. Lilian smile calmly and said, thank you Derek. Derek shake his head and said, no need to thank me, because that's what I should do, by the way, Noel had been crying ever since he couldn't see you, in fact he was admitted twice, because he had missed you very much. Lilian look surprised, although she and the little boy have a very good relationship, she knows that the boy likes her a lot that he can even cry if she comes back from work late, but she never expected his love for her will lead to him been admitted in the hospital.
Lilian felt guilty in her heart and look at Derek and ask worriedly, and how is he now? Derek shrug and said, well he is good, but sometimes he will still remember you and start crying and calling mom. Lilian was so surprised and thought honestly, the time they spent together is not that long, for them to develop such lasting feelings towards each other. Then she look at Derek and ask, can you bring him to me whenever you're coming here? Derek nod in agreement.
