Chapter 255 You Can’t Be Grabbing My Chest in a Crisis.

Lily was stunned. How could I possibly trouble him again after the divorce?

She quickly said, “You really don’t need to think twice about what happened tonight. Your mom and grandma have always been so kind to me. The whole Luke family made me feel warm and welcome, and you’ve saved my life more than once. I’m truly grateful to all of you, I honestly think meeting you all was one of the luckiest, most beautiful things that’s ever happened to me. The only reason I saved you tonight was because I didn’t want your mom and grandma to suffer the heartbreak of losing you. Besides, if you hadn’t driven into the river and gotten out of the car yourself. I wouldn’t have even had the chance to save you. I just carried you to this cave–1 didn’t really do much. You don’t owe me anything”

She spoke lightly, clearly unwilling to take credit for anything, but James knew just how much fear she must have faced tonight.

The people behind Miye were lunatics who didn’t care about their lives. Coming to find him had meant she was risking her own.

With how brutal those men were, if they’d been caught, they wouldn’t even have died with intact bodies.

Even with her carrying him into this cave, there was still a chance those men could’ve found them.

She had helped him in a huge way tonight. Even if she refused to take credit, this debt–he would never forget it.

Watching her lips, still slightly swollen from his kiss, move as she spoke; seeing that soft, watery light flickering in her eyes–he found himself momentarily dazed.

He kept thinking how much her eyes and lips resembled Leila’s.

But Lily shouldn’t have been on that riverside road tonight.

Leila, however, would have passed that exact road while returning to the city from the resort.

The suspicion in his heart deepened. As unlikely as it sounded–no matter how impossible it was for a man to become a woman–he couldn’t stop himself from asking. “Lily, why were you on the riverside road tonight?”
