Chapter 95. Tony and Lily’s Love Story: 6

“So, Miss Arnold. Why did you run home yesterday? I want the real reason, not that lie you made up earlier.” Tony said. Lily’s eyes widened at his question.

“W-what are you talking about, Sir?” She stammered and lowered her head. She couldn’t let him see her face as it would immediately give her away.

“Don’t be scared, Miss Arnold. I mean no harm. You are my staff, and I am only trying to ensure you’re alright.” Tony assured her when he saw her fidget.

“Now, Miss Arnold. What happened yesterday?” He asked again.

If it were another staff, Tony wouldn’t have bothered. The affairs of his employees outside the office didn’t concern him, and he had no right to ask, but this was Lily. He couldn’t brush off what he saw, and if anything happened to Lily, he would blame himself. So, he needed to know why she was so disturbed.

“I already told you, Sir. I had a call from my mother. I had to rush home and attend to her.” She sighed and hoped he would let her go.
