A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 68

Looking at the dining car, Lily is puzzled.

When did she order supper?

"Miss Lily, this is what the gentleman prepared for you." After entering the room, the waiter places the exquisite supper and two boxes of medicine on the table.

"Miss Lily, this is an externally applied ointment. You should apply it to the wound in the morning and at night. This is an internal medicine. It is brought by Mr. from country D to treat your vocal cords."

The waiter fears that Lily could not understand it, and he opens all the medicine boxes and squeezes it out in his hand to try it, telling her what is taken internally or taken externally.

Lily nods, and types ‘Thank you’ on her phone, and then sends him out.

Going back and picking up the ointment on the table, Lily thinks that only Louis knows that she is injured. So, does the waiter mean Louis?

Lily purses her lips, and feels warm in her heart.

When the waiter just comes out of the room, a tall young man comes from the corridor, wearing a leather jacket and a black stocking cap. His facial features are a bit childish, but he looks very cold.

"Wait a minute." Coffey stops in front of the waiter and asks, "What about the person who has been delivering meals the other day?"

"There's something wrong with his family. He's on leave." The waiter replies, because of Coffey's asking, a drop of sweat slides down his cheek, "The manager asks me to replace him."

The waiter is a bit scared.

In the dusk, an Asian man gave him two thousand dollars and two boxes of medicine, and asked him to send it to Lily’s room at night. The money is too tempting, so he accepted it.

"Really?" Coffee plays the black wolf-shaped lighter in his hand.

His words make the waiter very nervous.

Just when the waiter thinks whether he should tell the truth, Kay, who is at the door, pats Coffey's shoulder, and says with a smile, "Coffee, don't scare him. He’s really a waiter. I'm watching it!"

He winks at the waiter, and the waiter pushes the dining car and leaves quickly.

Coffey glances at the waiter again.

"Come on, it's really okay!" Kay couldn't bear it, "I've tried all the meals he delivers."

"Only food?"

Kay thinks for a while, and suddenly remembers, "Oh, there are two boxes of medicines. I also checked that. Don't be so alert. We are guarding against it. Nothing could happen."

"We can't relax." Coffey pats his hands away and leans against the wall, "Something just went wrong last time in front of us."

He is depressed when he thinks about it. He got straight A in all subjects in the school, and he thinks few are comparable to him, but he still didn’t expect that lady to be injured.

Coffey asks Kay, "I heard that that lady's vocal cord is hurt. Is it better?"

"No, she just talked to me by typing on her mobile phone." Kay grins, "Coffey, Miss Lily asks what your real name is. Wouldn't she like you, would she? Miss Lily is beautiful. It’s not bad to be with her!"

"It has nothing to do with me on whether she is beautiful or not." Coffey pouts. Except for his two sisters, every woman looks alike for Coffey. Even Chloe looks like a piece of pork.

"She’s really beautiful. Did you see her when you were in the pool?"

"No. I'm not interested." Coffey says lazily.

He knows that "Miss Lily" is wearing a white one-piece swimsuit, but before he can see her, Chloe called him, and Kay kept an eye on Lily, so he didn’t pay much attention.

When Mr. Louis told them he would come down, they left.

"Well, she cares, but you don’t." Kay sighs. Judging from Lily's behavior, he thinks Lily is interesting in Coffey; otherwise, why would she ask for his real name?

Kay blinks his eyes and smiles at Coffey, "Coffey, you just said that you have two sisters. Are they beautiful?"

Coffey nods.

"Could you introduce them to me!" Kay gets excited, Coffey is younger than him, and his sisters are probably the same age as him. "I want to have a girlfriend."

"Okay." Coffey doesn't hesitate to send Joey's WhatsApp to Kay, and then smiles evilly, "But she is a star now. I am not sure whether you can get her."

He hopes that Joey would get married as soon as possible.

"Shit, she's really beautiful!" Kay is stunned by Joey’s beauty, "Coffey, what about your another sister? Why don't you introduce her to me?"

Coffey's face is sullen instantly and says, "Go away!"

"..."

When he sees Coffey is somber, Kay doesn't dare to ask anymore. He friends Joey quickly and takes a selfie to replace his image with his selfie.

He has been single for more than 20 years. As long as he can have a girlfriend, he doesn't care what she is like!

Joey doesn't friend him for a long time. Kay plays with his mobile phone and is a little bored and chats with Coffey leisurely.

"Coffey."

"What?"

"Why are you so short of money?" Kay couldn't help asking. Coffey works really hard. As long as Mr. Louis gives him money, he could do anything.

Coffey says briefly "I am very poor."

Kay looks at him from head to toe, "But I don't think you are poor from what your clothes. Besides, you can take such kind of jobs after graduation."

"I remember that there are some regulations it the school. If you do part-time job when you haven’t graduated and cause troubles, you will be driven out of the school. Don’t you afraid of that?"

Kay graduated from that school. He knows how strict the school regulations are, and the students are driven out of the school, they can’t start from scratch, and they can only change professions.

You can get much money by working for the rich, but if you are expelled from school because of it, it doesn’t worth it.

"I don't have any rules in my eyes. Money is more important." Coffey plays with the lighter without fear, "Even if the school knows it, I won't be fired."

Kay's eyes widen, "Fuck, are excellent students so confident?"

Coffey smiles and gives him a casual look, "Yeah, but for you, you won't understand what being on the top five schools means."

“Coffey, can’t you think I am that bad?" Kay says sullenly.

He got into the ranking anyway. He is not so bad!

"Because I'm poor, I will do everything I can to avoid having a hard time." Coffey takes back his lighter, and says coldly, "I have to protect my family as well."

When Coffey was still in Daisy’s stomach, his father changed his nationality and ran to marry a rich Japanese woman because of a business failure and thought Daisy is weak and stupid.

At that time, their family was ridiculed by their neighbors. When Coffey went to study and was laughed at by his classmates, he felt more inferior.

He gave himself up when he was a junior high school student. Anyway, he didn’t have any hope for the rest of his life if this family as like this. Later, when he was beaten by several classmates in the alley, Lily rushed in with a wooden stick.
