Nolan Lucas pushed Tania Scott away and turned toward the other end of the corridor just in time to see Lily Redington leading a little boy upstairs from the staircase.
He frowned slightly, not expecting to encounter Lily Redington here.
But seeing that Lily was standing not too close and appeared natural, he knew his conversation with Tania Scott could not have been overheard, which slightly relaxed his expression.
"Sister-in-law, you're here," said Nolan Lucas with a smile, nodding toward Lily.
His gaze landed on the boy's face, and his smile deepened, becoming more inscrutable, "Is this child... my little nephew?"
Nolan Lucas, with his gentle and cultivated demeanor, looked like a refined gentleman.
But to Lily, this man was nothing short of shameless.
She tightened her grip on her left hand and pulled Ben Lucas behind her, staring back at Nolan Lucas without showing any sign of weakness.
