A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 151

Daniel says in a flat tone, "I know Louis well, he seldom stand out to back up anyone. So he's somewhat into you."

"If you really want to keep this matter as a secret, you should sign on this document." He opens removes the cap of the pen and put it aside the papers, "I need an absolute guarantee."

Lily is clear that Daniel would not believe in her no matter how many excuses she has.

Is Louis also… into her?

As the thought pops into her mind, Lily's heart skips one beat. She thinks that this idea is really crazy.

Daniel taps at the document and said in a cold tone, "Miss Lily."

"What?" Lily raises her head and runs into his sharp eyes. It seems that he had seen through her. When thinking about this, Lily has a tremor in her hands.

Daniel notices her slight tremor and adds, "Miss Lily, you just need to sign on this document. Then you can still do everything you like. I won't interfere in your affairs. When Louis gets married, this document will become invalid. And I will not take back the house, the car and the shares agreed on the document." The things that he agrees to give her are worthy of nearly 100 million CNY!

Lily, without denying, believes in the brotherhood between Daniel and Louis. But she's damn sure that Daniel did this mostly for Stella.

She suddenly has an impulse to investigate into what had happened between Daniel and Stella and why they broke up.

It takes her one minute to glance over the document. In the end, Lily picks up the pen and signs her name on the contract with a calm expression.

She then closes the document and pushes it towards Daniel, smiling.

"It's a good deal. Of course I will agree on it."

Daniel's thin lips curl into a straight line, which makes him look more cold and indifferent. He picks up the document and stands up from the sofa, "Miss Lily, I hope you can carry out your promise."

"Mr. Daniel Lou, I will not send you out."

Seeing Daniel walking out of the restaurant, Lily pats her chest gently and heaves a sigh of relief.

It was really hard to have a talk with Daniel and she felt as if she was a convict, who could just answer what was asked. He left no room for her to negotiate with him, which was quite indifferent.

"How comes that this kind of man to have a girlfriend?" Lily murmurs to herself. Just as she picks up the glass on the table, she finds that Chandler is still sitting by her side. He is lying prone on the glass window and is staring blankly outside of the window.

Lily leans forward, "little kids, what's wrong?"

"Big sister, who's he?" Chandler pulls down his mask, revealing his face that resembles to Daniel's, "Didn't you notice that I look as the same as that man?"

Lily nods, "I found it when I saw you the second time."

"Could it be that he's my father?" Chandler's eyes light up as he asks excitedly.

"I have no idea." Lily has guessed about the relationship between Daniel and Chandler, but she quickly denies the possibility, "Didn't you say that your father is a solider and that he's busy? But that uncle doesn't meet these descriptions."

Hearing her denial, Chandler feels very disappointed, "Yeah. Just now I asked whether he has a wife, he said he didn't. Of course he won't have a child. But I really resemble him.

Lily strokes his head and smile, "Maybe you just resemble each other. They are many pairs who look as the same as each other in the world, yet they have no blood relation."

Chandler nods in agreement, yet he still subconsciously looks out of the window.

Although Daniel has driven away, Chandler feels that the scene he met Daniel just now is still replayed in his mind like a movie.

His dad will only come back on the Chinese New Year. But it's too long.

Lily wants to send Chandler back home and then goes to her company. Just as they walk out of the restaurant, Chandler receives a phone call from his mom, and then he tells Lily that his mom will come to pick him up and asks Lily to leave first.

"All right, I have something to deal with. Let's contact through WeChat later."

Since Lily has to go to the company to deal with something, she chooses to leave first. When she walks out, she passes a woman. If only she walked more slowly and looked up, she would find out that it was Stella.

The shares of the Smith Group keep falling as the media continues to report the negative news of the company. Even the employees of the Smith Group are restless.

Through inside information, many employees get to know that some shareholders are selling their initial shares, which make them guess that the Smith Group is bound to go bankruptcy. Thus most of the employees choose to resign after getting the offers from other companies.

The Human Resources Department would receive more than a dozen of resignation letters every day. And Meghan Grant reports the situation to Lily.

Lily remains composed as she's reviewing the documents quickly, "It's reasonable that they would choose to resign since they could not see a glimmer of hope on Smith Group. Pay attention to employees in some special departments, forbid them from joining our competitors and give them some assistance payments."

"Okay."

Meghan packs up the documents and leaves.

Having reviewing documents for a long time, Lily feels dizzy and calls the inside line to ask for a cup of coffee. She rubs on her temples with her slender fingers.

Except for the news that she got several days ago, that Richard Smith and Olivia Smith had been contacted the shareholders privately, trying to buy their initial shares, she cannot get any other news about Richard.

"What are they waiting for…" Lily murmurs to herself and feels puzzled.

As she has signed the agreement with Daniel, she has been taking the initiative to keep away from Louis. She even tried not to bother Louis even it was related to works and chose to ask Leigh.

"President Lily, here's your coffee."

Just as Lily is lost in her thoughts, someone knocks on the door. Soon, there comes a slightly frivolous voice of a man.

Lily looks up to see Leigh, who is standing at the door of her office and is dressing up like a fashion leader. But with a cup of coffee in his hand, he looks extremely discordant with the office, a place that's always serious after all.

Lily is stunned, "Mr. Leigh Lewis, how comes that you're here?"

"Oh, I feel distressed for you, so I come to have a look." Leigh says in a playful tone and puts the coffee on her table. "Honey girls like you should drink less coffee."

The words "honey girl" makes Lily get goose bumps all over.

This man is really frivolous and dissolute.

Lily rubs her arms and refutes with disgust on her face, "Mr. Leigh, don't do things at will even if you have a good appearance. Women hate this kind of man so much."

"Oh you make me heartbroken." Leigh wails like a heartbroken man, "I regard you as my friend, and that's why I act like this. I won't be so kind to others; I would just give them a cold face."

"Mr. Leigh, what's the matter with you?" Lily takes a deep breath. She cannot talk nonsense with Leigh any longer. This man is really a thick-skinned argumentative person. "Oh, thank you for coming all the way to visit me. I'm fine, and you can leave."

"Wow, you are so indifferent. I bring you coffee, yet you didn't say thank me for this?"

"..."

When Lily sees that he's sitting on the table in frivolous manner, she finally fails to control herself any longer and picks up her pen to poke towards his hips, "Oh thank you for your coffee. Goodbye!"

Fortunately, Leigh reacts quickly and jumps away when she reaches out the pen.

Knowing that he cannot sit on the table any more, he pulls out a chair and sits down in a rarely well-behaved manner, "I get something to talk with you. Louis has been in a bad mood recently and he even drove away the maids and footboys in the villa."

Complicated feelings surge in Lily's heard yet she asks inadvertently, "Why President Smith is in a bad mood?"

Leigh folds his arms over his chest and sighs, "The doctor who did a check-up for Louis accidently broke out the secret that Louis's legs are necrotic and there's no possibility of recovery. Maybe this has stimulated Louis."
