Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love

“Starlight Orphanage…”

Of course, she knew.

It was the orphanage her mother used to take her to when she was a child.

“Yes, I know, why do you suddenly ask about it? That orphanage has been gone for about ten years. Are you looking for a friend?”

Those who ask about orphanages,

Mostly, it’s because a relative or friend is missing.

She remembers that Blake had said that David Redington was an only child and had grown up lonely and depressed since he was young.

His chances of finding a friend are higher than those of finding a relative.

“No.”

David shakes his head, hooks up a faint smile, “I heard Miss Hammond mention that she came from that orphanage. When she was young, she received care and sponsorship from your mother. I just think the name of that orphanage is quite special.”

David’s deep gaze fell on Lily Gray’s face.

The deep blue, clear pupils reflected the light and shadow, as if observing carefully while concealing something.

Lily Gray heard David’s words and couldn’t help but bow her head and recall the past.

She didn’t notice at all that David’s scrutinizing gaze was upon her face.

“It is special… Starlight. Oh, I remember my mother saying that I really liked that orphanage when I was a child, and I seemed to especially like the name of that orphanage. I used to go there a lot when I was a child.”

“But there was this one time when I got into trouble there, and when I came back I had a high fever for days. After I recovered, my mother seemed very angry and didn’t want to take me there anymore.”

Thinking of the past, Lily Gray couldn’t help but smile.

The days when she was carefree and loved by her parents always passed so fast.

“I thought you were an obedient and sensible little girl when you were a child … I didn’t expect that you could even upset your mother. What trouble did you get into back then?”

David asked as if it were unintentional, and there was a hidden meaning in the depths of his blue eyes.

“It was just an accident with my necklace…”

“Lily, Lily… Come on, Director Brown is back!”

Someone suddenly interrupted their conversation.

Lena Hammond rushed into the room after opening the door.

“Director Brown is back, he’s outside… And Mr. Wellington’s people are here too. Come out and see!”

Hearing this, Lily Gray immediately stood up and followed Lena out.

She didn’t notice at all that David, who was beside her, hid intense emotions deep within his blue eyes.

Lily Gray…

She is, she must be!

No, she can’t come to a conclusion so quickly.

David suppressed the emotions that were stirring in his chest.

His fingers with clearly defined joints clenched and slowly released again.

“Wait a little longer… wait a little longer…”

Just because the necklace matched, it couldn’t be concluded yet.

He had to wait even more.

Lily Gray rushed to the set and immediately saw Skye Brown with an unhappy face standing in front of the camera.

“Skye!”

“Lily?” Skye Brown saw Lily Gray and her face flashed a moment of astonishment.

Then, she suddenly put down the loudspeaker in her hand and turned around to walk out of the set.

“Hey, Skye, why are you running? Wait for me…”

Skye Brown turned and ran as soon as she saw Lily Gray.

That move was just too strange.

Lily Gray noticed that Skye was still wearing the clothes from their shopping trip yesterday.

Ah, that means… Last night, she really was with Mr. Wellington?!

Just as Skye Brown reached the door, she collided head-on with four or five of Dylan Wellington’s subordinates.

Each of the subordinates had their hands full of various items, effectively blocking the exit.
