A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 178

"You, you..." Richard trembles and he can't speak coherently. He can only watch as Louis and Lily leave. And suddenly, he feels weird in his throat as he spits out a mouthful of blood.

"Richard." Olivia hurries over to help him. "Are you alright?"

"This brat!" Richard breathes heavily. He has abundant experience of life, yet he is forced to the corner by an adopted son at the cost of his second son's arm.

Olivia whispers, "You know that Anthony values baby. If his grandson is gone, he will definitely feel bad. He favors the adopted son, and there's nothing we can do about it."

Richard says sternly, "I must avenge this!"

"Sir, please." A bodyguard walks over and says to Richard, "Make a choice, your arm or your son's arm? And the doctor can prepare the anesthesia accordingly."

Richard almost spits out another mouthful of blood. He closes his eyes, pushes Olivia, and goes upstairs.

Ellison is shot and is still unconscious. Even if he doesn't take the anesthetic, he won't feel painful when his arm is being cut off. Richard knows that his beloved child will become incomplete and his cheeks twitch fiercely.

He walks to the floor-to-ceiling window, takes out his phone and makes a phone call.

After the call is connected, Richard grits his teeth and says, "Tell Mr. Dawn that I can sell all of the Smith Group's shares to him at a low price, but he has to agree to my request!"

Until she leaves the main room, Lily is still dizzy, as if she is dreaming.

Only today does she know what professional acting is!

Louis played one trick after another and in the end, Richard even spat out blood because of anger. It is the first time she has seen such a wonderful play in her life.

Seeing her dazed, Louis asks her, "What are you thinking about?"

"It's too difficult to digest so much information." Lily glances at him and moves aside. "I think it's better for me to stay away from you. I can't win against you."

Louis smiles and pulls her to his lap. "Didn't you learn anything?"

Lily takes a deep breath and says, "Shit, how can I learn this?"

"It's easy. For example, you should use whatever methods appropriate if you want to deal with someone." Louis says, "As long as you spare him, he will think that you won't dare to do anything to him."

That's right.

Lily recalls that when Ellison bullied her, he was very arrogant, saying that Louis did not dare to do anything to him.

But she is also a little worried. "Look at Richard. If you cut off one of his son's arms, he will definitely take revenge on you in the future. Also, you shouldn't have lied to your father."

Louis narrows his eyes. "Are you being overly sympathetic?"

"No, no." Lily waves her hand, "I mean, we can get someone to secretly remove his arm. You shouldn't make it open, because your health is not good either."

"I just want them to learn the lesson so they don't dare to touch my woman." Louis says, "My father values kinship. He wants to let Ellison go. That's all I can do."

Lily frowns, "I'm worried that something like the car accident will happen again, and you will be in danger."

The car accident isn't an accident.

Louis rolls his eyes. The accident is planned by Olivia, but in the end, he lures Olivia into the trap, and Lily is in the dark about this.

If she knows, will she understand him?

Or be angry to him?

Thinking of this, Louis is inexplicably annoyed. He opens his mouth and says, "Lily."

"I know everything you are going to say, President Smith."

He is stunned.

Lily holds his hand tightly with firm and warm eyes. "No matter what happens, I will always be by your side, take care of you and solve your troubles."

Louis' expression softens. "Is there anything else?"

"Let me think." Lily originally wants to say, "Let's go abroad to relax when it is convenient," but she says, "You… If you don't dislike me,"

"Huh?"

She stutters again, "In the future, you can count on, count on..."

The sudden ringing interrupts Lily and startles her.

This fucking call!

"I'll take the call." Lily gets up from Louis' lap and answers the phone while cursing in the heart.

"Hello, who is it??"

After a short silence, the person on the phone calls out, "Darling."

"..."

Louis notices that Lily's body stiffened after she answers the phone.

He goes over in the wheelchair and hears Lily calmly say, "If you dare to come back to look for my mother, I have ten thousand ways to kill you."

And she hangs up.

Louis doesn't ask anything, he just says, "Tidy up, it's time to go back."

Lily nods.

When the two return to the main room, the bodyguards has finished their work. They show the arm to Louis. Louis waves his hand and tells them to burn it. Richard is so angry that he is speechless.

When Antony hears that they are leaving, he calls Lily into the study.

"Lily, the Smith family failed you on the child." Antony sighs, "I didn't expect Ellison to do such a shameless thing."

Lily is frightened because her pregnancy is fake. She is afraid that Antony will blame himself too much, so she says, "It's fine. I'm still young, and President Smith has taken good care of me."

Antony nods. "Yes, you will have another kid, and strive for more!"

Lily, "..."

There's no need for that.

"I really want to thank you." Antony sighs emotionally. "Although Louis' behavior today is too excessive, there is a trace of kindness on him, and it is you who give it to him."

"You know that Louis was adopted by me. There were many members in the Smith family, and some of them didn't like him. He didn't care and studied hard. He learned to do business with me when he was thirteen."

"When others are still studying in college, he has graduated. He won a 300 million contract for the Smith Group at the age of 20 and made it all the way to the higher-ups of the Smith Group and he is the youngest among them."

"I can't achieve any of this." Lily purses her lips and praises, "President Smith too outstanding."

Antony smiles and says proudly, "Yeah, among the children of the same age in the Smith family, even his aunt and Richard are inferior to him. This is why I handed over the Smith Group to him."

"He used to be introverted, but he wasn't so indifferent to others. Later on, I didn't know what happened, but his temper changed after doing business. Sometimes I didn't even know what he was thinking."

"Lily, I hope you can make him happy, and make him less aloof and less focused on his work." Antony pats Lily's hand. "He is an outstanding leader, and he should be a qualified husband and father, and he should have his own family and children. His life is so hard."

Lily blushes. "Don't say that. You are also President Smith's relative."

Antony shakes his head and smiles, "I know my health, and my life won't last for long. As long as I can see that you live a happy life and have kids, I will die with no regrets."

He opens the drawer and takes something from it.

It is a sapphire ring. The gemstones aren't big, but the color is pure. It is placed in a ring frame and looks beautiful and exquisite.

Antony looks at the ring and sighs. "This is his mother's only relic."

"You know President Smith's mother?" Lily asks in surprise.
