A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 165

“Louis, you are so annoying! I won’t come to visit you any longer.” Chloe yells at him and then turns around.

But she comes back soon.

“Miss Chloe, don’t vent your anger on me.” Seeing that Chloe is walking towards her, Lily becomes vigilant, “It was President Smith who said those cruel words, and it had nothing to do with me.”

Chloe takes out a cheque from her handbag and slams it onto Lily’s chest, “Lily, you want to become Louis’ wife? Stop daydreaming about it! You won’t realize this dream for the rest of your life!”

“By the way, Coffey has broken up with you. Please don’t pester him any longer.”

“This is the break-up fee for you. Take it!”

Chloe pushes back wisps of hair and strides away with her high heels.

Lily looks down at the cheque. Like last time, she receives a cheque with an amount of twenty million again. She is so confused, pondering who the hell had deceived Chloe that she was his girlfriend to refuse Chloe.

Seeing that Louis is so composed, Lily shakes the cheque and asks, “Do you believe that I’m two-timing?”

“No.”

Just as Lily is thinking that Louis is really confident at himself, Louis adds, “I won’t give my wife the chance to cheat on me.”

“…”

Lily coughs to ease the awkwardness.

After drying Louis’ hair, Lily comes back to her bedroom to change clothes, but when she comes out again, Louis frowns, “Change it. You will get cold with your belly exposed in the air.”

“How could I get cold in such a hot weather?”

Louis pushes his wheelchair towards upstairs, “Then we will not go out.”

“Wait, I will change it! Wait a moment.” Lily pushes him back to the living room. Louis hasn’t gone out for a long time, so it would be good for him to go out to relieve boredom, “Wait here.”

Just as Lily has gone upstairs, someone opens the door.

“Louis, why are you here alone?” Leigh comes in with a pile of documents and then glances around, “Lily is taking care of you, isn’t she? Where’s she now?”

Seeing that Louis is staring at the ground and ignoring him, Leigh walks over.

“Hey, Louis.”

Louis looks up at him and appears to be a bit confused.

Leigh, who can’t sense any murderous aura from Louis, guesses that Louis must haven’s sobered up. He is amused, “Louis, do you remember that last time when we had a bet, you lost it and promised to call me Daddy.

Leigh could only straighten his back and say out these words to Louis when he is drunk, “ Call me Daddy! Quickly.”

“Seriously?”

Nevertheless, Leigh hasn’t discerned the murderous look on Louis’ face. He rubs his hands together excitedly and turns on the recoding function of his phone, “Of course. Come on, Louis, quickly… Ouch… Ouch…”

Leigh cries out in pain as his wrist is grabbed tightly by Louis.

Louis increases some forces and with a loud cracking sound, Leigh’s wrist is broken. Louis sneers, “When had I bet with you and promised that the loser should call the other party Daddy?”

“Louis, I was wrong! I was wrong!” Leigh finds it hard to endure such enormous pain and begs for his mercy. Yuck, he thought Louis hadn’t sobered up and decided to tease him, but things seemed to be wrong.

“Louis, please, please spare me this time. My wrist has been broken. Louis, oh, please be kind to me and forgive me. I won’t do this again, please, for the sake that I came to deliver the documents, forgive me this time!”

Louis loosens his hand and says slowly, “Don’t try to anger me next time.”

“The situation would be different if the one teasing you were Lily.”

Louis shoots him a cold glance and shakes his fists, “Why did you say?”

“Nothing! I said nothing!” Leigh is panicked and pretends to be pathetic, “Louis, can I leave now? My wrist is broken and I have to go to the hospital.”

“Take the documents to the study.” Louis turns around his wheelchair.

Fuck!

Leigh wants to curse. But he glances at the broken wrist of his right hand and then at the documents scattered on the ground, and then clenches his teeth, picks them up from the ground and then follows Louis to the study upstairs.

Louis steps into the study and turns on the computer on the table.

Leigh initially planned to put down the documents and then leave immediately. But when he sees Louis opening the computer, he sneaks over and then finds out that Louis is watching the surveillance videos of the past few days.

Leigh witnesses the drunken Louis talking with Lily and putting his head on Lily’s belly from the screen. And then Louis’ foster father opened the door.

Then they were having meal in the kitchen.

Then some C-level executives of the Smith Group came and they headed to the meeting room.

Leigh finishes watching the whole surveillance video with Louis. He then boos ambiguously and smirks at Louis, “Louis, good job. Tsk, tsk, Lily is pregnant.”

Louis peeks at him, “You want me to stitch your mouth?”

Leigh immediately pretends to be looking away.

Louis continues to watch the surveillance video of today and his expression becomes a bit unnatural when he looks at the invariable picture.

When he sobered up in the living room just now, he found that Leigh was teasing at him yet he couldn’t remember what had happened. So he checked the surveillance video. But he hadn’t expected that so many things had happened when he was drunk!

No wonder that every time he wants to take a drink, David would examine the alcohol strength carefully. He appears to be so silly when he is drunk. If his competitor witnesses it, it would be a total disaster.

Lily comes downstairs but fails to find Louis, so she goes upstairs again and sees Leigh when she steps into the study.

“Oh, Mr. Leigh, you’re also here.”

Louis immediately turns off the computer.

Lily doesn’t notice it. She hastily pulls Leigh aside and whispers, “Leigh, President Smith drank some wine last night and is still drunk. He will not remember it no matter what you’re telling him now.”

“What?” Leigh refutes subconsciously, “But Louis has…”

Before he can finish the words, he feels a murderous look from behind his back and sneakily turns his head to see Louis staring at him, as if he is asking, “You want your left wrist to be broken too?”

Lily asks, “What did you want to say, Mr. Leigh?”

“I meant, I appreciate your hard work of taking care of Louis.” Leigh pats her on her shoulder.

Lily nods and thinks it is something she should do.

She notices that there’s no might from Leigh’s hand and asks anxiously, “Mr. Leigh, what’s wrong with your hand?”

“I’m fine. It was just that it crashed on something accidently.”

“Then call the family doctor to come over. We have saved his phone numbers. Anyway, go find his numbers and call him.” Lily adds, “The weather is good today and I want to push President Louis to go out to have a walk. I will inform you when he sobers up.”

Louis has sobered up earlier!

But Leigh simply smiles and waves his hand, “All right. Go.”

When Lily pushes Louis to the outside, Leigh pulls a long face and complains while putting the documents into the drawer, “To Louis, his lover is more important than his buddies! He even deceived Lily!”

He just played a joke with Louis, but Louis broke his wrist regardless of their brotherhood.

“What’s this?” Leigh suddenly finds a small box in the drawer and takes it out. After a closer look, he finds that there is a line of words reads ‘FX1236’ and there’s a small pill in the transparent box.

He mutters, “Isn’t this the pill developed by Justin?”

Justin has been researching and developing this FX1236 for five years, but it is still undeveloped by now and it has a side effect, that is, if one takes FX1236 again within three years after taking the first one, he/she will possibly regain his/her memory. And the possibility is 90%. So Justin has not published it to the public yet.

Leigh heard about what had happed in Turkey from Justin before. At that time, Louis’s interpreter was kidnapped by Chloe and was drugged. Then Louis asked Justin to give him two pills and fed one of it to that interpreter after the sex.

Tsk, tsk, with a rough investigation into Louis subordinates, he found out that that interpreter was Lily.

Leigh turns the small box at his hand over and over as an evil smile appears on his face.

Louis doesn’t want Lily to recall it, but he does!

Just as Lily walked out of the house while pushing Louis’ wheelchair, the phone in her pocket vibrates.

She opens the WeChat and reads the new message sent by Leigh, who told her that he had put an amazing thing in the cabinet in the kitchen and urged her not to forget to take it and eat in before sleeping.
