Chapter 89

“Ultimately, you’re still upset.” Justin shook his head. “It’s true that when you left, grandpa said some harsh words, but he was also angry. We’re family. How could you take words said in anger seriously?

It’s been so long. You’re suffering, and you should’ve had enough. Listen to those rumors, as well as the lawsuit. You’ve done this to yourself and are still unwilling to turn back?”

“It’s not that I don’t want to turn back. When I think in time, I will,” Lily straightened her back and added, “I’ll solve my affairs. Don’t worry. No one will know my relationship with you.”

However, that sentence seemed to anger Justin. “Do you think my family is afraid of being implicated by you? Do you think you can get away saying nothing? Why are you still so self righteous after all these years?”

“Well, then just assume that I am. I’ll tell my grandfather in person when I’m qualified to return.”

“Are you really not coming back?” Justin asked as he took another step closer, looking down at her.

His body was lean, which made him look taller. His skin was virtually translucent, although his lips were a sweet pink and not as pale. Seeing how his delicate lips showed no signs of violation, only three words came to mind – striking young man.

Lily raised her head, and her eyes were steadfast, “No.”

Before she finished speaking, a light wind headed toward her.

With little time to think, she immediately raised her arms in preparation to fight.

Justin was lightning fast. The pace was quick and dense when he raised his fist. Lily would have been attacked if she had not responded quickly enough.

After a few rounds of back and forth, Lily gasped for breath. Justin delivered a kick in the direction of her waist.

Lily received a blow!

His foot remained 3 inches away from her waist, and then he pulled his foot back. The whole time Justin was controlling his strength. The motion had been so swift that she could not dodge it in time.

“Your skills have declined,” he said lightly.

“Unfortunately, so!” Lily admitted frankly.

When she fought with Nathaniel’s bodyguards, she realized her ability had slackened in the past two years. It would have been a piece of cake for her in the past, but the fight that day left her wrist a little sore.

“You sure you’re not coming back?” Justin asked again.

Lily did not answer this time, but her eyes conveyed her reply. “All the best!” Justin said as he walked past her and left.

When Lily turned around again, he had already disappeared. She suddenly felt that her arms and calves were very sore. Although Justin did not use his full strength to attack, it still took some effort to defend herself.

However…

It seemed as if this incident had caught her family’s attention. She thought her grandfather had already given up on her the past few years, leaving her to fend for herself.
