A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 140

Some shareholders analyze that the Smith Group can go through the difficulties, and refuse to sell the original shares. Lily consults with Louis and negotiates with those stubborn shareholders according to what he said, and successfully repurchases the original shares.

At the same time, Olivia and Richard are secretly buying the original shares from other shareholders.

After Lily knows about it, she is surer that it is Olivia and Richard who spread the news and want to take the opportunity to plunder the original shares of the Smith Group.

It’s easy to buy back the shares, and it’s hard to sell it now.

At such a critical time, the Smith Group will sooner or later declare bankruptcy. Some companies are even making acquisition plans that whoever wants to pay a high price to buy the original shares of the Smith Group must be a fool.

Lily is busy these days, she gets sick.

Jessie gives her the medicine and scolds Louis. "Mr. Louis, that's way too much! It’s his legs that are broken, not his brain. Why should he stay at home when all the things happen?"

"It wouldn't be convenient for him to go to the Smith Group like that." Get the foundation and cover the scar on my face. I have to go out."

"It's raining today. Why are you going out?"

"I have an appointment with Mr. Heller Hodge for dinner."

"Well!" Jessie rolls her eyes, but she doesn't want Lily to go out. However, she has to put the foundation on Lily’s face carefully, "Your wound is still healing," she says. "Is that fine?"

Lily smiles, "It's OK. Mr. Justin has treated the wound and put a protective film on it. After removing makeup, I will tear off the film. It's not good to go to dinner with a scar."

"Don't you know how you got the scar?" Jessie replies, “That's why I say Mr. Louis is so unkind that he always asks people to do something for him without saying how much he will pay you."

"Lily, don't like this kind of man, otherwise you will have to suffer for the rest of your life."

Lily's heart misses a beat, "How do I like him?"

“Am I blind? Jessie puts the foundation hard on her face and says, "If you don’t like him, would you help him with so many things and blocks the knife for him?"

"Lily, aren't you afraid Mr. Louis will refuse your kindness?"

"Hey, did you hear me?" continues Jessie.

"Yes, I'm in a hurry. I'm leaving now." Lily grabs the bag and runs out, shutting off Jessie's nagging as soon as the door is closed.

Lily breathes a sigh of relief when she gets into the elevator.

Jessie's words are haunting her like a mantra and make her feel a little irritable.

Even if she is interested in Louis, it's gone now.

Because Louis is engaged, and because of all the things she has done that day at the hospital, she hasn't come to the villa to see him for so long.

What's more, she helps the Smith Group and Louis because Louis protected her in the car accident. Besides, he trusts her when she becomes the acting President. She just wants to repay the kindness and finds out the truth about the minister's death.

It's raining today. Lily is afraid that she will get stuck in traffic, so she takes the bus to the hotel.

Unexpectedly, the rain causes collapse of a section of road, and all the vehicles are stuck in the road, the bus can’t even turn around.

Lily looks at the time, feeling anxious.

After waiting for nearly two minutes, she estimates that the traffic jam would not be smooth, so she quickly opens the map and sees that it will take her 15 minutes to run from here to the hotel, and she immediately tells the driver to get off.

Lily takes out the phone and calls Heller as she walks quickly.

After the call is put through, she lowers her voice and says, "President Heller Hodge, I'm sorry, could you please wait for me in the private room for ten more minutes? I am stuck in the traffic jam and I'm running to the hotel."

"Miss Lily, as you know, I am very busy. I have already put off several meetings so that I can have dinner with you. If Lily can't make it by the appointed time, maybe we can arrange for another time."

Heller is polite but he makes it clear that if Lily is going to be late, he won’t talk about the business.

"President Heller Hodge, I'm so sorry. I'll try to get there." Lily replies humbly. When he hangs up the phone, she is so angry that she wants to throw the phone away.

She doesn’t know how Louis chooses all these bosses. They're so arrogant!

Lily doesn't notice the road is bumpy, and she falls down on the road.

The mud splashes all over her, making her look embarrassed.

"Lady, are you all right?" A small hand reaches in front of Lily with a packet of tissues in it.

"Thank you." Lily takes the tissue and gets up from the floor.

The little boy in front of her is wearing mountain equipment clothing, a helmet and a mask, and there is a black mountain bike next to him, looking very cool.

The eyes...

Lily looks into his eyes, wondering where has she met them before. The little boy takes off his mask and looks at her brightly. "What a coincidence, lady!"

“It’s you?” It is the little boy who found her car key in the mall before, the spitting image of Daniel. She freezes, and then smiles, "What a coincidence, you helped me again."

"You're welcome." The boy's voice is crisp. "Lady, your windbreaker looks dirty."

Then he reaches into his bag for a paper towel.

"No, just throw it away when it's dirty." Lily soon calms down. She takes off her windbreaker and throws it into the trash can, and then takes off her high heels and smashes the heel off to use them as flat shoes.

Lily tugs at the heel and says, "This is much more comfortable."

The boy is dumbstruck by Lily's series of actions.

When Lily sorts out her wet hair to show her calm and confident look, he says, "Lady, you are so handsome! I thought you would cry if you fall."

Lily chuckles, "Crying won't solve the problem. It's better to find a solution."

"Why are you out alone on a rainy day?" While Lily is sorting out her hair, she talks to the little boy, glancing at his face from time to time.

Does this little guy have anything to do with Daniel?

The little boy smiles, "There was training today, but the teacher didn't come, so I went out to train by myself. I didn't expect it to rain halfway through, but fortunately it doesn't rain heavily."

"Isn't your family worried about you?"

"No, I know kung fu!" The boy lifts his chin and says with pride, "Although I'm small, I won’t be knocked down."

"How old are you?

"Four."

Lily looks down at him and gasps. "Four? But you are 4.6 feet!"

"Because my father is tall, too." The little boy is proud when he mentions his father, "My father is 6.3 in height, and I hope I will as tall as he is in the future."

Lily could not help asking, "Who is your father?"

It is only when she asks the question does she feel ill at ease. With an embarrassed look on her face, she asks, "Do I look like a bad person? You are so tall, and I can't help asking who your father is."

The little boy doesn't mind at all, and he smiles cutely, "It doesn't matter, even if you are a bad man, you would be knocked down by me!"

Lily is speechless.

You are so naughty, little boy!
