A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 115

Louis’s temperature seems to be lingering on her lips, and she feels feverish. Until she goes back to the apartment and takes a bath, she calms down a bit.

On Monday morning, Lily drives Jessie to work. It usually takes 40 minutes, but now 20 minutes is enough.

Jessie keeps shouting that it is so convenient to have a car!

When Lily comes into the office, she finds that there are some candies on everyone’s desk, including hers.

She smiles and asks her colleague, "Why, is something good happening to someone else?"

"Miss Katherine from the planning department." The colleague replies, "It’s said that Miss Katherine is pregnant. Her marriage with the son of the plutocrat in Mencian State is scheduled for next month. Miss Katherine is sending candies to all departments in the morning."

"Really?" Lily is a little confused.

Isn't Katherine hurt when she fell in love with the son of an official in the country F and says she would never marry or have children in her life? Why did she suddenly get married?

She is a few years older than Louis, a risky age to have a baby.

Is there something wrong with the Smith family?

But Lily doesn't think so much. She has a lot of things to deal with.

However, when she sends Louis a message to ask about something, she couldn't get a reply.

There is no reply in the afternoon, and still no reply the next day, and he didn’t show up in the company. Katherine doesn't show up for the rest of the day, except Monday for giving out the candy.

The company is calm.

A few days later, Chloe storms into the Smith Group and goes straight to Lily's department.

Chloe throws a newspaper on the table and says angrily, "But why are you so useless and let outsiders succeed!"

Bewildered, Lily looks down to see the contents of the newspaper and the photos of the young man and woman close to each other. Suddenly, she feels sad and uncomfortable in the heart.

The newspaper headlines in bold black letters reads:

Congratulations to Mr. Louis from the Smith Group and Stella from the Long Peace Group for the upcoming wedding!

Louis is going to get married?

"Lily, you're so useless!" shouts Chloe and pokes on the newspaper, “When did Stella hook up with Louis? I am busy with shooting movie. Don't you know when it happened?"

"Hey! I am talking to you! Why don't you say anything?"

"Lily, are you deaf? Aren't you angry that someone takes your man away?"

During Chloe's endless scolding, Lily gradually regains her concentration. She closes her lips and then says "Chloe, I have nothing to do with Mr. Louis. You think too much."

"God will believe it! If you don’t have any relation with Louis, would he be so nice to you? When you were in Turkey..." Halfway through the conversation, Chloe suddenly remembers Louis's warning, and doesn't go on, just waiting for Lily's reply with discomfort.

Lily asks, "What happened in Turkey?"

As soon as Chloe mentions that, Lily also feels that after she woke up, Chloe came to Louis and said something inexplicable, but she didn't know what happened.

"It's all right. Don't be such a wimp anyway!" Chloe grins resentfully. "I don't like you, but your background is much better than Stella's."

"Do you know what Stella's mother used to be? Stella is so shameless. She's an illegitimate daughter. If Louis really marries her, he would be the joke in the media!”

"It doesn't matter to me what Miss Stella comes from." says Lily. She feels a bit upset and doesn't want to talk to Chloe anymore. "Do whatever you want to do. Leave me alone."

Chloe stomps and says angrily, "If Louis doesn't leave me in the cold, refused to see me and didn't answer my phone call, would I come to you? And I can stand by your side!"

"Can't we just kick Stella out and fight again?"

"Do you want to see her marry Louis?"

"I said that I never want to fight with you, Miss Chloe. Don't treat me like a rival anymore." Lily says, "It's Mr. Louis's decision who he marries, and no one else can interfere."

Lily continues, "Miss Chloe, I am very busy. You should go first."

"You..."

"Nancy, take Miss Chloe out."

Chloe wants to talk to Lily again, but Lily gets upset and calls someone in. Chloe glares at her and then leaves on her stiletto heels.

After Chloe leaves, the office is completely quiet, but Lily doesn't have the mind to read the documents. Her eyes keep looking on the newspaper, and she feels dull and uncomfortable, which makes her annoying.

It seems like yesterday that she helped Louis celebrate his birthday, and today, he announces his engagement.

She is caught off guard totally.

After all, it makes headlines and involves the CEO of the Smith Group. So, everyone in the Smith Group knows about it. Lily could see people discussing it everywhere.

Even when she goes to the secretary department to get the documents, Miss Meghan knows it and is very shocked, "Mr. Louis says that he has something to do these two days. I didn't expect he would be engaged! It really goes fast."

Lily smiles blankly, "Maybe they know each other long ago."

It's said that Mr. Smith is hospitalized and his life is at risk, so everyone in the Smith family starts to take action. "

"Didn’t Miss Katherine get marry? Although Mr. Louis is in charge of the Smith Group, its director is Mr. Smith. If something happens to Mr. Smith, everyone in the Smith family will share in the property. Mr. Louis doesn’t control everything in the Smith Group. If there is one more descendant, they can get one more share, so everyone wants to get more."

"Mr. Smith is hospitalized?" Lily looks gloomy. "Isn't he in good health on vacation abroad?"

Meghan says, "Yes, he did, but I heard that he has a bad heart. Mr. Louis asks Mr. Smith to come back and recuperate. I don't know if it is because of heart problem, so he is hospitalized again."

No wonder she can't see anyone of the Smith family these days.

Although Miss Stella is an illegal daughter, she is backed by the Long Peace Group and is also a member of the Scott family. If Louis marries her, it would help him win more bargaining chip. Of course, he would marry her.

Meghan looks at Lily and says regretfully, "Miss Lily, to be honest, Mr. Louis is so kind to you. I thought you two would get together, but I didn't expect that it would go like this."

Lily trembles, but she quickly calms down and smiles, "I got transferred to the Regulators department, and is targeted by everyone. Could Mr. Louis not be kind to me?"

"You go busy with your business. I have to go now."

Without giving Meghan a chance to ask questions, Lily leaves the secretarial department, while Meghan's eyes are fixed on her, which are strange and unpredictable.

After a busy day, Lily lies in the chair exhausted.

As soon as her nerves relaxed, she thinks about the news. She turns on her cell phone and sees the news again. She is so upset that she picks up her things roughly and leaves the company.

Jessie could see that Lily is in a bad mood today. She just looks at her and says nothing.

The car moves along the road slowly, as if the whole city is stuck in a traffic jam. It doesn’t move a bit in a few minutes. When they arrive at the underground garage of the mall, Lily slams the car door on.
