Seeing that Lily Turner's emotions had stabilized much compared to before, and that she could even joke with him, Easton Holmes finally felt relieved.
"If he dares to ignore me, just wait and see how I'll deal with him." He played along, joking with her to try to lighten the atmosphere.
"You wouldn't dare!"
Even though Lily knew Easton was joking, she still discontentedly pointed a finger at him, showing a protective parental stance.
The look in her eyes clearly told him that if he dared to deal with her son, she'd deal with him instead.
"I wouldn't dare!"
Easton reached out and took the finger pointing at him, putting it to his mouth for a playful nip, "With such a fierce mom as his, even if I borrowed another spine, I wouldn't dare."
He said this while playfully biting her hand again.
"You're annoying! Biting me again!"
Lily glared disapprovingly at the man biting her, pulling her hand back from his grasp and stepping out of his embrace.
