Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 2468

“Fab...”

“What's this? Did a male classmate give it to you?” Fabian asked, his tone sounding calm and

gentle, but he could no longer hide the displeasure in his eyes.

Lillian did not dare to lie in front of Fabian.

She nodded slightly like a child who had done something wrong.

The moment Lillian nodded, Fabian's heart sank suddenly.

He stared at the youthful and beautiful face in front of him and suddenly realized something.

The little Lily of that year had grown up, so it also meant that he was old.

He still remembered when he met Lillian for the first time. The child was only five years old, and

he was only a 17-year-old boy. Lillian was 18 years old now and she was at such a youthful and

energetic age. On the other hand, he was already an old man. 1

Fabian gently put down the love letter in his hand and slowly got up to walk toward the stairs.

Lillian stared at Fabian's lonely back for unknown reasons and went upstairs to catch up to

Fabian without hesitation.

“Fab, why aren’t you speaking?

“Fab, are you angry?

“Fab, what's wrong with you? Are you ignoring me?”

Lillian quickened her pace and ran up to Fabian, blocking his path.

“Fab.”

With a serious expression, she stopped Fabian who was ignoring her.

Fabian reluctantly stopped. His heart tightened when he faced the girl in front of him.

“Lily, I want to be alone for a while.”

“Why?” Lillian wondered. “Are you mad at me?”

Fabian shook his head, barely holding the gentle smile on his lips.

“I won't be mad at you no matter what happens.”

“If that’s the case, what’s going on with you?” Lillian did not understand. “Is it because of that

love letter?”

When she mentioned the love letter, the smile on Fabian's lips disappeared instantly.

He did not say anything. Instead, he walked past Lillian and went straight into the study. Lillian

watched Fabian’s figure leave quietly and felt worried. Her small face was filled with melancholy.

Fabian came into the study and walked in front of his desk silently. Then, he picked up a photo

frame on the desk.

There was a photo of him and Lillian in the frame.

He did not remember when he took this photo. The Lillian inside the photo was now a slender

and elegant young lady.

Fabian furrowed his brows and fell into deep thought. However, he seemed to not remember any

memories of Lillian transforming from a little girl to a young lady.

However, when he remembered that Lillian had grown up by his side all these years, he felt

extremely relieved.

Even so, she had grown to the age when she would have her first awakening of love, she had

already accepted the feelings of other boys. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

All his waiting over the years seemed to have been in vain.

Knock, knock.

There were soft knocks on the door of the study.

Fabian spotted Lillian out of the corners of his eyes.

He turned his head to look at her and saw Lillian walking toward him with a cup of iced coffee.

She smiled, and her smile was so sweet.

“Fab, I just made this. It’s your favorite iced Americano.”

Fabian never refused Lillian's wishes, so he reached for the glass.
