A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 122

"Shit, it's different!" Leigh says, "Don't you know Chloe? She will be clingy to anyone with good temper. If Daniel likes her, I could cut off my head."

But he's not very confident, so he asks Justin, "Does Daniel really..."

"There are things if I tell you, you will only make things worse." Justin knows his personality, so he's not going to tell him anything. "If you're really free, there's a church in the nearby. Go and pray for Louis, so that he could wake up early."

"Shit! How can I know if you don't tell me?" shouts Leigh, "It's not my turn to pray for him. You are older than me. It is you who should go and pray for Louis."

At this moment, a reckless person, who bows her head and does not look at the road, comes upon him. Her head bumps into Leigh's arms and then she staggers back a few steps.

"Hey, you have arrived the hospital. Why so anxious?" Leigh is also distracted by the collision and finds that the girl is so short that he does not know whether she is 1.6 meters or not.

He wants to say something sarcastic with a smile, but when the girl looks up, rubs her forehead, and looks at him with silly look, he gasps.

Then Leigh’s heart misses a beat for a few seconds.

"Did I hit you? I'm so sorry. I've got to pick someone up." Jessie apologizes to Leigh hurriedly. She knows that Lily is in trouble and she rushes over without paying attention to the road.

Leigh coughs and smiles like a gentleman. "It's fine, I..."

"I have no cash, could I make up for you with the coffee? See you!” Jessie takes a cup of coffee out of the bag and puts it on Leigh's hand, then hurries to the hospital.

So, Leigh's "Can I have you WeChat?" stops in the midair.

He looks back over his shoulder at Jessie's disappearing face. The silly look seems to lingers in his eyes. Then he looks at the arm coffee in his hand.

Leigh looks at Justin, says seriously. "I fall in love with her, to tell you the truth."

"If you don't love other for a week, you are not Leigh." Justin snorts, then ignore Leigh and leaves, "Do you leave or not?"

Leigh catches up with him with the coffee, and hooks his arm on Justin’s shoulder with a smile, "Anyway, we will be resident in the South State in the future, and we will have chance to see each other. Chloe invites us to have supper. We must go!"

Justin is speechless.

Lily's right shoulder was stabbed by broken glasses, and she was caught in the rain. When the clothes are cut off, the wound gets white. The doctor applies medicine to the wound for Lily, and then prescribes two boxes of medicine for her to take internally.

Stella accompanies Lily to the window to get her medicine.

When she comes back and sees Lily sitting there being distraught, she comforts, "Don't blame yourself, Miss Lily. Louis doesn't want to see you like this."

"I see, it's just..."

At the thought of Louis covered in blood, Lily's heart is throbbing and she could hardly speak.

His legs wouldn't have been crushed if Louis hasn't jumped in to protect her.

"I know the Smith Group has set up a new department, and Louis transferred you to be the manager." Stella smiles. "It proves that Louis trusts you."

"When you had a car accident, the news was post on TV. Don't you feel it strange?"

Lily's pupils shrink slightly.

Of course she does. When the Smith family rushed to the hospital, she felt something is amiss. There was no traffic jam on the road, and Louis wasn't known to everyone.

Even if Louis got sent to the hospital, the police needs to check the scene, and there won't be any news of the accident until tomorrow morning. Now it's that the moment they went to the hospital, the accident is post on TV.

Either someone plans this accident, or there is a conspiracy behind it.

"Miss Lily, I will take care of Louis. Don't worry." Stella gives Lily a hint and pats her on the shoulder. "Don't disappoint Louis's trust in you. Take care of the Smith Group," Stella says.

"Yes." Lily nods, suppressing the excited emotions in her heart.

The Smith family almost knows about Louis's legs are injured. Tomorrow morning, all the newspapers will release news one after another, so she needs to get ready.

Out of the blue, the phone in Stella's bag rings.

Stella picks it up, looks at the display, pinches her lips, and then goes to the corner to answer the phone.

"I am busy these days. I don’t have time to go back."

"..."

"Well, you will see to it."

"..."

They are not far away, and Lily can hear Stella. Her voice is indifferent as if she speaks in such cold tone deliberately, but her face is soft.

"Lily, are you all right?” Lily's thoughts are interrupted by Jessie, who comes in a hurry.

Jessie looks Lily up and down and is relieved to see that she is just wearing gauze on her shoulder. "I saw on the news that the car is out of shape and I thought something has happened to you. It scared the shit out of me."

Lily laughs and says, "Didn’t I tell you to wait for me in the lobby? Why did you get here?"

"I am worried about you, so I asked the nurse, knowing that you are here, and I comes over." Jessie says, and then she looks over at Stella on the phone and asks, "Gee, she look familiar."

"Mr. Louis's fiancee."

Jessie pats her forehead and says, "Yes, that daughter of the Scott family I read about in the newspaper before! Why is she here? And Mr. Louis, is he all right?"

Lily's eyes are a little dim, and she tells all the situation to Jessie. Jessie’s reaction is just like hers. She is stunned for a while, stroking her chin and trying to say something, but Stella comes back.

"Miss Stella, this is my colleague Jessie." Lily gives Stella a brief introduction.

Stella nods to Jessie and says, "I am not going to let you go alone, and want to send you back, but now that you're living together, I'm relieved."

"Thank you for taking care of Mr. Louis."

"This is what I should do."

After a few pleasantries, Stella returns to her room to look after Louis.

Lily and Jessie leave the hospital.

On the way back, Jessie says something that she has not had time to say before, "Isn't that weird? Mr. Louis is the backbone of the Smith Group. The accident will definitely affect the stock of the Smith Group. Shouldn't the Smith family immediately block the news after they know about the accident? Why would it spread on the news?”

"Who do you think will benefit most from this exposure?" asks Lily.

Jessie frowns and keeps running her finger over her eye frame. Then she understands something and looks at Lily in amazement.

Lily nods, affirming what is in her mind.

"The Smith Group is in a mess, but I didn't realize..." Jessie pauses and says, “Or you take advantage of the car accident and take a leave, so as to get out of the fighting in the Smith Family? When you get divorced from Jason, that means the affairs in the Smith Group don't matter to you anymore, and you're not a shareholder of the Smith Group, you don’t have to work hard for the Smith Group.”

"Mr. Samson, Mr. Gill, Miss Olivia and Katherine are in the Smith Group." says Lily, "If I don't stay here in the Smith Group to help it, the Smith Group will fall into their hands."
