You Are The Pursuit of My Life

Chapter 124

Deborah was sneering as she looked at the comments on the Internet with Lily. "Although Irene's image has been ruined now, Edric must have a knot about you in his stomach. The most important thing now is that we should let him be suspicious about you. Call Edric

immediately and tell him that you'll reveal your relationship with Irene to everyone."

"How should I do that?" Lily asked.

"Tell Edric that you want to disclose the news that Irene is your sister to defend Irene," told Deborah.

"Mom, Dad will definitely not agree to this." Lily did not think that was a good idea.

"Of course, he won't, but it doesn't matter. Just tell Edric and see how he will answer." Deborah had her own plan.

"Mom, is this really okay? If Edric really agrees to it, what should we do?" Lily stared at Deborah.

"Then we should do what we say! If Edric agrees to let you announce the relationship between you and Irene to the public, Irene is his sister-in-law by then. In this way, he will never ever dream to get back with Irene. Otherwise, the society will certainly turn their backs on him," Deborah mocked. "He would have thought of such a consequence."

"What if he doesn't agree?" Lily was still rather hesitant.

"Call him first and see how he reacts. If he doesn't want to admit it, I have other ways to deal with him." Deborah, at this moment, let out a light simper.

Meanwhile, Edric was sitting in the car, rubbing his eyebrows, feeling extremely worried. All of a sudden, his phone rang. John looked at the screen and handed the phone to him, saying, "It's Miss Cook."

Edric answered the phone impatiently, "Anything?"

"Edric, I have something to say to you," Lily muttered. She certainly heard Edric's impatience. "I just read the post that attacked Irene on the Internet, and it infuriated me a lot. I can't let them continue to bash her like this. We have to think of a way." "Do you have any good ideas?" Edric asked.

"I thought it through just now. Since everyone is bashing Irene because they misunderstood your relationship with her, why don't I make an announcement, thereby eliminating the misunderstanding?" Lily suggested. "How are you going to do it?" Edric's brows became knitted again.

"Tell everyone the relationship between Irene and me and that we are sisters. Irene having a meal with you is just a simple family meeting... Also, the reason Irene went to Chandelle Valley is just to visit me. In this way, everyone will stop all these bashings," Lily proposed. "No way!" Edric refused Lily's suggestion right there and then. It was true that their problems could be solved by announcing Irene's identity, but there were many drawbacks.

First of all, no one knew that Irene was Steven's daughter. Such an abrupt announcement would definitely have an impact on Steven. According to an insider, Steven was not at the capital city to attend a meeting, but he was being brought there for an internal investigation instead. If his opponent took advantage of this matter and made a big fuss about it, Steven's career would definitely be affected.

Secondly, if they only announced Irene as Lily's elder sister, his future relationship with Irene would be completely cut off. There would definitely draw criticisms when he were to see Irene again in the future. Others would criticize that Irene was a homewrecker who snatched her younger sister's fiance. In this way, how could Irene ever gain a firm foothold in the upper-class society? This method of Lily would not work.

"Why not? I think it is the best way at the moment, isn't it?" Lily asked innocently.

"Have you ever thought of asking Mr. Cook's consent to reveal Irene's identity?" Edric questioned.

"But... But all these happened because of me. I can't think of another way else except this way," Lily replied. She certainly thought about requesting Steven's permission. In fact, she made such a move on purpose, for she knew that Steven would surely disagree. "Forget it. I'll think of another way to deal with this matter." Edric hung up the phone.
