A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 54

Louis glances at Lily gently.

In just a few seconds, he seems to understand something, so he says seriously, "Good job, you go out first."

"Okay." Lily leaves with her head down, and the moment she goes out and closes the door of the meeting room, she leans on the door and breathes heavily.

Fortunately, she catches up with the time.

Soon, Chloe also hurries over, and she is dissatisfied when she sees Lily still holding the document in her hand, "Don't you say you will send the documents to Louis? Why are they still in your hand?"

"This is the wrong documents. I have replaced them." Lily sits on the lounge chair next to the meeting room, and quickly looks over the contract.

When she sees the loophole, Lily looks dignified.

The entire document was only translated once, and the mistake was not corrected. How could it be that?

The translators in the secretary department are selected carefully. Such minor mistakes will not be made by the employees in the translation department. How couldn’t they see the errors?

"Hey, why do you look so gloomy?" Chloe asks, leaning in to look at the contract. Then she just snatches it in Lily's hand.

Lily, "..."

After seeing the contract, Chloe is shocked and turns to look at Lily, and says doubtfully, "The goods and the money are not matched."

"You are right."

"How could this be..." Chloe stares at the documents in her hand, stomping angrily says, "These people want to use the Smith Group's goods to do the money laundering! How dare!"

The so-called money laundering with the Smith Group's goods is that after the contract is signed, the funds will be sent to the Smith Group account, and the Smith Group’s subsidiary company will send the goods to the clients, but the quantity of the goods is wrong.

When the goods are loaded on board, another person can transfer the excess goods and get another contract. Then a large sum of money will flow into the private account and it cannot be found.

Lily says, "The contract is originally in charge of by secretary department."

"No wonder..." Chloe has always been with Louis. She knows many things, and she originally wants to tell Lily, but she grumbles in the end, "Forget it, I don't want to tell this to an outsider!"

They wait outside the meeting room for nearly an hour.

When the door of the meeting room is opened, Louis and the other party walk out while chatting. When they are going to leave, they smile and shake hands with each other. Then David takes the other party to the restaurant downstairs.

After David takes the man away, Louis pulls the tie. He must feel being bound for a long time. Then he sees Chloe and asks, "How come you are here?"

"I met Miss Lily on the way." Chloe goes to hold Louis's hand, and says, "I saw Miss Lily was hurry to give you something, so I brought her over."

Lily sneers in her heart.

Miss Chloe, why don't you say that you have embarrassed me several times on the road?

"Well, sorry to bother you." Louis touches her hair and says to Lily, "It's almost noon. I'll invite you for lunch, just to express my gratitude."

"No. Thank you, Mr. Louis." As an employee, Lily feels that this is her duty.

Before she says that she wants to go back to the company, Chloe comes over and grabs her by the arm, "Just go for lunch with Louis if he invites you. Don’t talk so much nonsense!"

Then she says to Lily's ears, "I won't let you get alone with Louis!"

Lily sighs.

Wouldn’t it be better to let her go back to the company?

The hotel restaurant is large and can accommodate a thousand people. Chloe finds a window seat and sits next to Louis. From time to time, she gives Lily a provocative glance, but Lily ignores it.

Louis asks Lily, "When did you find that there are loopholes in the contract?"

"This morning." Lily tells Louis about the matter again, "My minister works outside, so he asks me to revise the contact and send it over quickly. Fortunately, I caught up with the time."

After that, Lily glances at Louis.

Since he comes out of the meeting room, Louis looks somber. Apparently, he is annoyed by the contract.

Although she wants to know what happened, Chloe is reluctant to say it, and Louis would not say it either.

"Louis, why don't you let me work in the Smith Group, so that I can help you." Chloe shakes Louis' arms.

"Anyway, you will stay abroad for a long time. David must also go with you. I will feel bored if I always act. I'm so smart that I am sure I can help you a lot."

"You're only for playing, and you won’t take job seriously." Louis hooks his thin lips, "You will only mess things up in the Smith Group. It would be better for you to stay in the crew."

Chloe pouts unhappily, "Am I that bad?"

Louis doesn’t say anything, just pours a glass of red wine and hands it to her. He lowers his eyes and says to Chloe, "Miss Lily just happens to be here today. Apologize to her."

"But I have written a hundred times of self-criticism. Why should I apologize?" Chloe is holding his arms, her face unhappy, "She slapped me and I haven't gotten even with her yet!"

"Chloe." Louis says seriously, and he seems to suppress his anger, "Do you know that you almost disable Lily's leg?"

Chloe bites her lips and takes the wine glass reluctantly.

"I'm sorry!" Chloe quickly touches Lily’s glass on the table, "But you slapped me before, so we get even."

Louis says coldly, "Be polite, stand up to apologize to Miss Lily!"

"Well." Chloe pouts her mouth, but she doesn’t dare to disobey Louis. She stands up, and her eyes like a knife, shooting at Lily.

Chloe holds up her glass and says, "Miss Lily, I'm sorry!"

Lily is surprised.

She thought that the matter has passed, but she didn't expect that Louis would let Chloe apologize to her face-to-face. This is the third time she saw him so cold towards Chloe.

It seems that Louis is deliberately protecting her.

When Lily lowers her head, she happens to meet Louis's eyes. They are a bit cold, but Lily feels her heart beats fast. Then she quickly looks away.

She stands up holding a wine glass, touches Chloe's, and smiles slightly, "I hope Miss Chloe will not be so naughty in the future. Not everyone is as good as me."

Chloe shots her hard look.

Louis says, "Chloe, did you hear what Miss Lily said?"

"Yes!" When she sits down, Chloe holds Louis's arm again, and coquettishly says, "Louis, I feel a little dizzy. Can you send me to the crew?"

"Go back yourself."

"I'm not feeling well. I can't go!" Chloe feels grieved and says, "I don't care about she slapping me, and I have apologized to her. What else do you want! Louis, you don't spoil me anymore."

"Louis, if you don't send me back, I won't go anywhere today!"

Louis feels annoyed by Chloe. He rubs his eyebrows, and finally puts down the knife and fork in his hand, "Miss Lily, then you enjoy yourself. I will ask David to take you back."

"No, I'll just go by myself." Lily says, "It’s easy to get a taxi at this time."

"Well, take care of yourself."

After Louis takes out his suit jacket, Chloe sticks to him again, and turns back to make a face at Lily.
