Chapter 372
Lily tried to explain, hoping that Brace would just let her go, but Bruce wasn't the type to listen to explanations
or reason.
He finally figured out that Lily wasn't interested in him, but he said, "It doesn't matter whether you want to get
married or not. As long as the Joyners want you to get mi Emarried, and I'm willing to marry you, that's enough!"
"There are plenty of people who would marry you, so why do you insist on marrying someone who doesn't love
you?" Lily was extremely forious. "Let go of me, this will never work between us!"
Lily wasn't sure what she said triggered him. Bruce's expression darkened, and he said, "What is impossible for
us if you can set your sights on someone like Xavier Fulton? Stop pretending to be so high and mighty in front of
me. You probably act all wild in front of Xavier!"
Lily and Xavier had been married in secret for two years. To the outside world, they had no connection at all.
When she heard Bruce mention Xavier and had such an assessment of her, she instinctively asked, "Who told
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou that | know Xavier?"
"Why? You don't dare to admit it? You should look at yourself first, Someone like Ms. Lynde is the one who
deserves Xavier. You're not even fit to be in their presence." H
The more Bruce spoke, the angrier he got Lily in his eyes at that moment was just a person aiming for something
beyond her station, but this bitch insisted on pretending to be dignified in front of him. He wanted to tear apart
her charade.
He continued his rambling, "Plus, they are already married. Yet, you're still hung up on him and pretending to be
all righteous and lecturing me!"
After he ended his rambling, his pulling of Lily becmore forceful.
Lily struggled and couldn't even wonder who might have told Bruce all these things. But no matter how hard she
struggled, she wasn't as strong as Bruce.
Just as she was about to be dragged into the elevator, a pair of hands suddenly grabbed Bruce's wrist. The hands
rightened just enough for the veins on the back to stand out. "Bruce, let go of her.""
"Terence's expression was thunderous, and his voice was low and full of warning.
Bruce's wrist hurt, and he had to release Lily When he turned around and saw it was Terence, his expression
immediately changed "Mr. Devereux.
Lily rubbed her wrist, which had turned red from the manhandling, and stood behind Terence.
"Who do you think you are? Maryanne was also there, and she rushed out from behind Terence. "Why don't you
take a piss and look at yourself? what gives you the right to touch her?
"I'm telling you, she's under my
my protection. She's under the Devereux family's protection. Try touching her again and watch!"
Behind Terence and Maryanne stood Manka. Marika walked over and lifted Lily's wrist. When she saw it was
bruised and red, her eyes revealed her concern and heartache. Marike looked at Bruce in anger.
"You really have snerve to even interfere in our family's matters. If Mrs. Watson Senior hadn't toldthat
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmher son didn't meet Lily because you intercepted him, | would have been kept in the dark!" Marika snarled. With
the situation exposed, Bruce immediately apologized, not daring to offend anyone from the Devereux Lamily
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Devereux Senior, Ms. Devereux, and Mr. Devereux...| thought she was playing both sides by
going on blind dates with two men.
"| intercepted them because | was too angry! The Joyners were the ones who approached my father first. They
said they wanted to marry her off to me!"
There was nothing wrong with blind dates, but to go on two at the stand then have it discovered-this
would indeed appear to be Lily's fault.
Lily said coldly to Bruce, "I have severed ties with the Joyners, so what they say doesn't count."
"Sure. It doesn't count!" Bruce quickly backed down, but he knew that his feud with the Devereux family couldn't
be settled so easily.
When he saw how protective they were of Lily, he wondered if there was more to it.
Bruce asked cautiously, "So, is Ms. Joyner poing to the the lot with Mr. Devereux?
As soon as he finished speaking, Marika scolded, "What nonsense is this? She's just good friends with my
daughter!"
