Chapter 590: Chapter 593: Has That Person Returned?
At the entrance of the Manor, Dylan Wellington, who had already chased after him, finally caught up with Aidan Lucas.
“Aidan, let me accompany you…” He cheerfully greeted, appearing utterly unconcerned.
Aidan Lucas just glanced at him, without responding, and got into the car.
Seeing that he did not object, Dylan Wellington took it as a consent and naturally followed him.
During the journey, Aidan Lucas closed his eyes to rest, saying nothing.
The car headed straight back to the Lucas family’s mansion. When the car stopped, both men got out, one after the other.
Just then, Samuel McKinley rushed out of the mansion.
“Mr. Lucas, there’s trouble…” Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Dylan Wellington suddenly strike Aidan Lucas in the back of the neck with a knife hand.
Aidan Lucas, completely unaware and full of hostility, collapsed with a thud.
“Phew–” Dylan Wellington rubbed his right hand, “it’s always like this, I literally gave it my all this time, worried that he wouldn’t fall. Samuel, next time prepare a stun stick, I’m afraid I might not succeed in one go and he could seriously injure me.”
Samuel McKinley: “…”

The First City Hospital was the nearest large hospital to the wine party venue.
Lily Gray, cradled hurriedly by David Redington, was brought in and rushed directly into the operating room.
Diana and Jacob were both present at that time, as well as Emily Taylor who rushed over when she got the news.
“Joan… what on earth is going on? Why would it turn out like this? Weren’t they saying that Lily’s fetus was stable? How did she end up in the operating room all of a sudden?”
“I… Aunt Emily…” Joan Wellington didn’t know what to say.
Should she say that Lily Gray went to ‘catch a cheater’ and ended up getting overly stimulated?
Skye Brown, who had no interaction with Emily Taylor, turned sour as soon as she learned that Emily was Aidan Lucas’ mother.
“Mum, when the Lucas family have already treated Lily like this, there’s no need for you to fake it. I thought before that you truly liked Lily… but what happened? Humph, Lily is lying in there because of your wonderful son! If you truly care about Lily, you should have that bastard Aidan Lucas kneeling outside the operating room and apologizing!”
“This… impossible…” Emily Taylor didn’t believe Skye Brown’s words, “How could Aidan have done this to Lily? Impossible, he adores Lily.”
“Adore? Adore Lily, yet he intentionally spread rumors with Hannah Ford? Adore Lily, yet he said… said Lily is ‘dirty’? We don’t need such love.”
“Aidan and Hannah, that’s all fake, it can’t come true. And dirty… wait, what did you say? Aidan said Lily is dirty?”
“Hm.” Skye Brown hooked up the corner of her lips in a sarcastic manner, “Yes, that’s how your son describes his wife who is bearing his child!”
“Oh no—” Emily Taylor abruptly rose to her feet.
The color drained from her face, as she seemingly muttered softly to herself, “It’s that person… that person is back…”
“Aunt Emily, what’s wrong? Don’t scare me…” Joan Wellington had never seen the usually graceful and dignified Emily Taylor looking so flustered.
She was frightened.
Skye Brown was also startled.
She was just angry and wanted to infuriate the Lucas family.
But she had not expected to agitate Emily Taylor like this.
Seeing Emily Taylor standing there, mumbling to herself, Skye Brown regretted it immediately.
“Mum, you… you don’t get worked up, it was a moment of desperation. Actually, Aidan’s behavior towards Lily might just be a misunderstanding… Lily is still in there, Mum, you can’t be upset. You… you still need to take charge!”
Hearing the word “take charge”, Emily Taylor seemed to suddenly find her backbone.
Back in the day, that was what the old lady had told her.
Yes, she couldn’t lose it, she needed to take charge.
