Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love - Chapter 414
Chapter 414: Chapter 417: Lily, You’ve Changed
Thinking about this, the reporter couldn’t help but speak up.
“Miss Gray… there’s a question I would like to ask you, even at the risk of being impertinent. Did you reject Mr. David Redington’s advances because of Mr. Aidan Lucas’s involvement? We have received information that you and Mr. Lucas seem to have a close relationship. Is this true?”
This was a question that the other reporters wanted to ask but didn’t dare to.
Nobody expected that someone among them would be brave enough to ask this question directly in front of Mr. Lucas’s subordinates.
Everyone was waiting to see that reporter being caught and “taught a lesson” by the bodyguards in black in a corner.
However, the expected rough treatment did not happen.
Sebastian Lucas VII stood behind Lily Gray, carefully observing her expression.
Seeing her hearing the reporter’s question, she just smiled faintly.
He immediately understood that the Young Lady didn’t mind the reporter’s offense.
Since the Young Lady didn’t mind, Sebastian wouldn’t interfere.
He still stood by Lily Gray’s side, silently watching the surroundings.
As for Lily Gray, she faced the camera with a smile on her lips, “Although this is my private matter, there have indeed been many troubling rumors recently.”
“So, I thought about it and decided to use this appropriate opportunity to clarify. Yes, what this reporter said is correct, David Redington and I are not in a romantic relationship. We are just partners. As for my relationship with Mr. Lucas…”
“The Lucas family will hold a dinner at the hotel tomorrow night. After the dinner, you will naturally know more about the things you are interested in.”
Lily Gray left them with a puzzle and gracefully left.
The remaining reporters wanted to ask more questions but didn’t dare to pursue her because of Sebastian and the others.
Well, it’s only one day until tomorrow night.
By then, everything will come to light.
Can this Miss Gray survive under the influence of Mrs. Lucas…
The answer will be revealed in due time.

Upon returning to the set, Lily Gray quickly immersed herself in her busy work.
She had just come out of the lounge of the promotion department for a temporary meeting when she ran into David Redington around the corner.
“Do you have some time? There’s something I want to talk to you about,” David Redington leaned against the corner and asked casually.
His deep blue eyes, however, missed Lily Gray and fell on Sebastian Lucas VII standing behind her.
Lily Gray looked back at Sebastian and pointed to a spot not far away, “Let’s go over there.”
The place she pointed to was a corner of the set specifically for stacking miscellaneous items and props.
The reason for choosing this location was simple:
There were fewer people here.
And the view was wide.
Even if Sebastian stood not far away, he could clearly see her and David Redington’s every move.
Aidan Lucas trusted her, and she didn’t want to disappoint him.
Even with a clear conscience, Lily Gray didn’t want any misunderstandings or to upset Aidan Lucas out of jealousy.
David Redington glanced at Sebastian not far away.
Then he looked down at the girl standing in front of him, wringing her hands.
The corners of his lips curved upwards, revealing a slight smile, “Lily, you’ve become smarter than before.”
For the first time, a bitter smile appeared on David Redington’s face.
“Huh?” Lily Gray didn’t understand and looked up at him.
The bitter smile on David Redington’s lips slowly spread, turning into a vague curve, “It’s nothing, I just feel relieved. Now you finally know to have a bodyguard by your side and not to stray too far from them when talking to someone.”
Although a smile was on David Redington’s lips, the smile did not reach his eyes.
Maturity, intelligence… wasn’t it a form of guarding against him?
Lily Gray was no longer the girl who would sneak into his house to cook noodles for him and help him out of his dreams.
And he, at last, knew who was responsible for the pain of his past twenty-plus years.
