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.

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?”

Lily hadn’t expected him to suddenly ask that

Catching the suspicion in his eyes, she felt a little guilty.
