Lily finally responded, which should have been a cause for happiness.
But when he opened the text message and saw those three words, Aidan Lucas felt a sharp pain in his heart.
Though his heart ached unbearably, and he was annoyed and regretful, Aidan Lucas still managed to suppress his depressive mood and called again.
He shouldn't be discouraged.
At least Lily was willing to reply to his message; it at least meant she was still willing to interact with him.
As long as she wasn't shutting herself away, as long as Lily was willing to deal with him, even if it was to hit him or scold him, he had no complaints.
However, the man who thought he would have no complaints a moment before,
the next moment, when he made the call, was met with the response of a shutdown tone.
In his deep, cold-black pupils, a faint fire finally began to flicker.
His little one, he wouldn't let her just escape from him...
Aidan Lucas finally decided to use some forceful measures.
