Chapter 653: Chapter 656: Ford Family, unrelated to me.
“Enough—I told you that I don’t want to pursue this matter any further!” It was the first time Lily Gray had ever used such a tone with Noah Ford.
Staring at Noah Ford, her stunning peach blossom eyes were filled entirely with mist, “You Fords, deal with your own problems. Whatever you choose to do in the future… it will not involve me.”
Her name is Gray, not Ford.
Let’s just treat all this as an illusion.
“Lilith, are you planning… to renounce your father?” Noah Ford asked, a pained look on his face.
His Lilith, his daughter, whom he had earned through hardship and careful effort — how could she deny him?!!
Lily Gray hung her head, not daring to look at Noah Ford’s bloodshot eyes.
“It’s not that I am overruling you… It’s just that we’ve been apart for twenty years. We’re used to living our lives separately. Why try to force us back together?”
“I know, in this world, I’m not all alone. Knowing the existence of my parents, of my elder and younger brothers is enough. As for the rest, let’s keep it the way it’s always been.”
In other words, she wished to separate herself from the Ford family.
They were merely her blood-related relatives.
But deep emotional bonds, they no longer had.
Lily Gray knew that she was probably angry at Noah Ford and Oliver Ford.
But, she no longer wanted to have anything to do with the Ford family.
When a heart is wounded, its healing becomes difficult.
All that joy upon reunion, all that warmth was destroyed repeatedly by Bella Scott’s ruthlessness and favoritism, leaving scars everywhere.
From the moment he reunited with Lily Gray, Noah Ford had been trying to suppress his jubilation.
How carefully he had cherished this father-daughter relationship.
He couldn’t show too much excitement or happiness, nor could he be perceived as biased.
He was afraid of Madam Ford’s reaction and afraid Bella Scott would become suspicious…
Finally, he had found his daughter. But now, she wanted to distance herself from the Ford family! n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The sudden setback caused Noah Ford to step back orlean back abruptly.
“Dad—” Oliver Davis, who was also suppressing his emotions, quickly supported him.
In one night, Noah Ford seemed to age several years.
“Li, Lilith…” He tried desperately to convince Lily Gray to change her mind in his hoarse voice.
Hearing Noah Ford’s low voice, Lily Gray forced herself not to look at him.
Lowering her head, she whispered to Aidan Lucas, “Ethan, I’m tired. Let’s go home.”
She knew, the Ford family was not her home.
Now, only where Aidan Lucas and Ben Lucas were, could be her home.
She could feel Noah Ford’s genuine affection for her, and she could sense the sorrow exuding from the silent Oliver Davis.
Even so, she couldn’t afford to soften her stance, couldn’t afford to forgive again.
She was a human being too; her heart also needed warmth.
Lily Gray buried her head again into Aidan Lucas’ neck, thus avoiding the gaze of the Ford family, and maintained silence.
Aidan Lucas held her, hurried past the Ford family.
With Sebastian Lucas VII leading people to stop them, the Ford family didn’t have the chance to stop Aidan Lucas.
The man walked briskly, eager to get his wife home quickly and coax a smile back onto her face.
He couldn’t bear to upset or see his wife, who had spent too much time crying due to the Ford family, weep.
This was also why Aidan Lucas determinedly supported Lily’s decision to cut ties with the Ford family.
It wasn’t necessary to maintain this family bond that only brought Lily pain and sadness!
