Chapter 638: 641: Avoid Bella Scott, Go Catch Hannah Ford (Additional Update 1)
But if Shen Wan was involved…
Even if she was just an accomplice behind the scenes, she was still Lily’s biological mother.
What if Lily found out that Shen Wan was involved in this?
The frown lines on Ethan Wilson’s brow had deepened since just now.
Thinking of how Lily Gray and Shen Wan had become closer recently,
He, for the first time, felt torn between two sides.
“Don’t worry, I planned it before I came.” Ian Moore hooked the corner of his lips, revealing a smile that was both unrestrained and complacent.
“For this matter, only interrogating Hannah Ford will be useful. Mrs. Ford, isn’t she going to the sister-in-law’s ward every morning for two hours? … We can interrogate Hannah during that time!”
*
The next day, Shen Wan, as usual, did the same thing.
She bought fresh ingredients early in the morning, cooked the soup, and sent it to Lily Gray’s ward.
When she arrived, it was almost Eleven o’clock.
It was just right to chat with Lily Gray for a while.
Usually, they would talk about Lily’s interesting childhood, watch her drink the soup, chat for a while, and when Lily was asleep, Shen Wan would go downstairs to see Hannah Ford.
In Shen Wan’s view, Lily Gray was her daughter, and Hannah Ford was also her daughter.
Moreover, compared to the fragile and sensitive Hannah Ford, Lily Gray’s character was obviously more magnanimous and understanding.
Shen Wan was afraid to touch Hannah’s nerves, so she dared not mention Lily Gray to Hannah.
However, she thought Lily Gray was sensible and understanding, so she wouldn’t avoid mentioning Hannah Ford in front of Lily.
For example, she once said with a smile, “Lilith, when you were little, you were much more incredible than Hannah!”
“Your brother often ran to us to complain that you bullied him. Unfortunately, your dad and I were always on your side, making your brother apologize each time. But after Hannah came, she was especially scared of your brother…”
“Alas, I’m the one to blame. I didn’t notice at that time that you and Hannah’s personalities are not similar at all. If I had found out earlier, I might have found you sooner…”
Usually, at this point, Shen Wan would start wiping away tears.
Lily Gray could only tell herself silently that what Shen Wan said was merely unintentional.
She was her mother and loved her very much, so Lily Gray shouldn’t overthink things.
So, Lily Gray ended up being the one to patiently try to console Shen Wan.
Today, it was the same as before. They talked for a few moments and then Shen Wan mentioned Hannah unintentionally.
However, Lily Gray didn’t have a good night’s sleep last night. For some reason, she didn’t sleep well, and her mood wasn’t great either.
When she suddenly heard Shen Wan comparing her and Hannah, her heart felt suffocated.
“Mother, I’m a bit tired. I didn’t sleep well last night…I want to rest for a while.”
Lily Gray looked for an excuse to send the guest away, actually feeling somewhat hurt inside.
She wanted to be alone but even more, she wanted Shen Wan to comfort and pamper her.
Unfortunately, Shen Wan didn’t understand and thought she was genuinely tired.
“Alright, then your mom will go see your sister first. You rest well… I left the soup here, remember to drink it when you wake up. I won’t disturb you, I’ll go first.”
Shen Wan tucked Lily in, pulled the curtains, and left.
In truth, she had her own selfish reasons.
Recently, Hannah kept asking her where she went during the day.
She didn’t have the heart to tell Hannah, so she only found excuses to muddle through.
Today, she had a chance to go see Hannah earlier, Shen Wan didn’t think much and went from Lily’s ward upstairs to downstairs.
However, just as she reached the downstairs corridor, she heard a heart-wrenching scream coming from the other end.
