A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 110

"No, I won it in the lottery."

Lily tells him all about it, and then, after a pause, she adds, "The fairy is going to come with me, but her aunt called her in the middle of the way, so I sent her over."

Coffey is silent and feels relieved.

He’s glad that she doesn't come. He only talks to Jessie for Lily's sake. He doesn't have any feeling for her.

Besides...

When he is lost in thoughts, his phone in the hands vibrates. It is a familiar number. The person has called him hundreds of times these days. He feels annoyed and directly shuts down the phone.

"Why don't you answer it? Lily happens to glance over at him and glimpses the name "Little Princess" on the caller ID, which immediately makes her happy. "You said you're not in love? Do you want to hide it from me?"

"No. It’s just a friend."

"How did I not know you have a friend called Little Princess?" Lily sounds incredulous.

Coffey, with a gloomy face, explains, "She took my phone to change her name, and I forget to change it back."

He just turns on the phone and deletes Chloe phone number.

When he says this, Lily does not press him any further, but just says, "If you have someone you like, you should tell Jessie clearly, or else you will be a jerk, even I will also become a sinner. Jessie is very nice, so I am willing to introduce her to you."

Coffey touches his nose and says, "Don't worry; I don't want to be in a relationship."

"I didn’t for you to have a relationship. I just want you to meet some friends."

What difference does it make?

Lily drives to the supermarket to buy some vegetables and fruits and some crabs, and then goes to Daisy's house.

She called Daisy in the morning and told her she will come back. Daisy cooked duck soup early, but Coffey comes back as well, so she prepares several dishes.

Daisy's waist is not so good, and it hurts when she bends over for a long time. Lily asks her to have a rest. Then Coffey goes to kitchen to help Lily.

Four dishes, one old duck soup, and some steamed crabs.

Lily is eating the food cooked by her own brother, which is much better than her cooking. She says sourly, "We both learned from mother, buy why do you cook better than me?"

"I cooked for myself when I am free at school." Coffey says. Because he doesn’t get used to the meals in the school, and he gets good grades in all subjects as well as is ranked higher, he can choose his own room.

Daisy gives him a concerned look at once, and pinches him, fearing that he is suffering from malnutrition. "Mom pickled some beans and radishes, or you can bring them to school."

"No." Coffey is hesitant. He can’t take them it even he wants to.

"Alright, mom, give me all." Lily says, fearing that Coffey would take it. "My roommate likes your pickled beans."

"Ok, I also cook some fungus porridge. You take them away."

After dinner, Daisy begins to prepare something for Lily, including two thermos of fungus porridge. When Daisy sends them out in the afternoon, she repeatedly asks Coffey not to behave badly or fight with others in school.

Coffey is silent, only listening to Daisy's chatter.

When he gets to the car, Coffey says, “Lily, the school give out the scholarship, I've gotten a lot. Let's go and see the house. The place where Mom lives now is too old and far away from you. Choose a closer one.”

Lily used to get a lot of scholarships from the university. But she doesn't know how much, so she asks with a smile, "How much?"

"More than two million."

"Are you sure?" Lily almost chokes after hearing that, and looks at him in shock. "Your school looks so poor. Can it give out so many scholarships?"

Their school is not poor, but mean. This is his part-time job money.

Coffey says, "Because I get good grades, and I am in the top five in the school. I also did a successful research project, so the school gives me more money."

"Well, you are much better than I did." Coffey has been smart since he was a kid. He is so much smarter than Joey.

All three of them are excellent.

Lily also has millions of assets now. With the two houses of Mr. Sam and Mr. Gage, and some shares of Mr. Gill’s company, she is a rich woman now.

But Coffey is so filial that she says nothing and takes him back downtown to the sales office.

She can make up for the lack of the money.

Sales office seems to be holding activities, and today’s weekend, so the lobby is crowed with people.

When Lily and Coffey come in, the sale immediately greets them, "Hello, how can I help you?"

"I want to see the house."

After asking Lily some specific requirements, the property consultant takes her and Coffey to the sand table in the west corner and introduces them to the senior residential area of xx section.

The floor and the apartment layout are great, and the community is very close to where Lily lives.

Lily is satisfied with it and goes to ask Coffey, "How do you like it?"

"Good, the community has its own library, theater, and so on. Mom will not be boring she moves here." Moreover, Coffey is also satisfied with the privacy. So, he asks about the price.

"Nine hundred and eighty-six thousand at present."

Coffey is speechless.

So, does it mean that the price will change?

Coffey hopes to buy a house with more than $2 million, but he can't afford it.

"Four bedrooms, three living rooms and four bathrooms. It's big and the price is favorable." Lily thinks it is worth of that price. After all, it's close to the city center, and it's a high-end community with full functions.

Coffey touches his nose. "Let's take more look." he says. "It's not just this neighborhood."

"Well, it’s up to you." Lily smiles and knows that Coffey finds it too expensive and not wanting her to pay much. Anyway, it’s this weekend today, she isn’t in a hurry.

But she doesn't expect Louis and Chloe to be here.

He comes to choose the house, and she is curious and insisted on following him. She asks Louis why buy a house, but Louis doesn’t tell her, which makes Chloe.

Since Louis comes back from Turkey, he is very indifferent to Chloe. Every time she wants to have dinner with him, he either refuses her or asks her to shoot movie. She is left alone.

She admits her mistake and is fined, but why does he ignore her?

Chloe feels depressed and calls Coffey, but he hangs up the phone immediately, which makes her furious and stamps her feet in anger.

Ever since Gray Wolf quit his job, no matter how many times she calls him, he never answers her phone. It’s way too much! Isn't she treating her well and he leaves as he likes?

"I think this one is good..."

Vaguely, Chloe hears a similar sound. She leans out from behind the pillar and sees Lily. She seems to be looking at the house. There is a young man standing beside her.

Today Lily is wearing a gray knit dress and a pair of black Nike running shoes. The young man beside her is also wearing short sleeves of the same color. The young man is two heads taller than Lily, so they look like lovers.

When the young man tilts his head, and Chloe sees his silhouette, she is taken aback!

It’s Gray Wolf!
