A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 252

When she takes the elevator to the President's office, Lily meets one of her previous colleagues from the R department and has a short chat with her.

After the Smith Group reshuffled, the R department was not dismissed. The personals in the department remain, and they are still doing the same work as before.

Because there is not much work here, most of the time, everyone is idle.

"Manager Lily, when are you coming back? Our department has no leader and there is not much work to do. We are worried about getting fired every day!" The colleague still calls Lily manager.

Lily smiles and says primly, "I have something to deal with now in the Smith Group. However, my position arrangement depends on Mr. Smith. I’m gonna go."

After leaving, she takes out her phone and sends David a message.

This account is currently being used by Louis, so her message is received by Louis.

"David, are you busy? Help me bring lunch to Mr. Smith. There are too many people on the top floor. People will gossip when they see me."

After reading the message, Louis is displeased.

Every time this woman chats with David, she can say anything freely and happily. But she always avoids being seen by others when she is with Louis. Is she afraid that others will know?

Louis replied, "Ms. Lily, you should send it yourself. I have work to do. I have to go this afternoon."

"Then could you call a secretary to help me?"

Louis replied, "Ms. Lily, why do you avoid meeting Mr. Smith? Besides, aren't you going to return to the Smith Group? So, won't you report to Mr. Smith about your work in the future?"

"What? You've already known it? Mr. Smith is such a bigmouth!"

Louis smiles helplessly.

Lily begs "David" for a long time, finally gives up angrily and goes up to the top floor.

There's no one in secretarial department now. The corridor is quite quiet.

She knocks on the door.

Inside comes Louis’ low voice, "Come in."

After entering the President's office, Lily sees that the man is still busy working. He browses documents quickly and holds a pen in his hand, with a serious and focused expression on his face.

A man focuses on work is charming.

She stares at the man for a while and quietly puts the lunch box on the table. Just as she turns around to leave, Louis speaks.

"Where are you in a hurry to go?"

"I see that you're still working. So, I want to go outside for a walk and come back later," she says. Seeing that she cannot leave, so she goes back to open the lunch box for him, takes out the food from it, and mutters, "You are so stingy. You don't ask your secretary to order the food but ask me to buy it and deliver it to you."

Of course, Louis hears it.

The man raises his eyebrows and says, "There is a high-level meeting at five o'clock in the afternoon. I thought Ms. Lily wants to attend. Since Ms. Lily is busy, then forget it."

"I'm not busy at all. I have time to attend the afternoon meeting!" Lily hurriedly gives the food to him, saying flatteringly, "This is delicious. Mr. Smith, try it."

"I don't dare to let Ms. Lily's spend money for me."

Although she wants to roll her eyes at him, Lily keeps smiling, saying, "This meal won't cost much. If you like it, I'll buy it for you every day in the future!"

Louis says, "I can eat take-out occasionally. But I'd prefer home-cooked dishes."

"OK, I can cook some food for you!" Lily takes a deep breath again and says, "I love to cook. It's my honor to cook for you, Mr. Smith."

"Since you like to cook so much, then I'll leave my daily meals to you in the future." The man finally picks up his chopsticks and starts eating.

Lily keeps smiling.

"After I enter the company, I will not cook for you anymore! Have your take-out food!" she curses secretly.

Louis takes a sip of the soup and immediately frowns, saying disdainfully, "It's too heavy."

"Really?" Lily takes a spoon and tastes it. The soup is quite good. "It's not bad. Mr. Smith, you're too picky. This is from one of the top restaurants," she says.

"I'm probably used to eating the food you cook."

Lily is stunned for a moment, and her face is blushed. She hurriedly pours a glass of water and gives it to him, saying, "Then drink some water."

After lunch, Louis asks her, "How is your mother?"

"She is recovering quite well. And she can be discharged in a few days," Lily says. Then she tells him about Yuna. "She asked me to drop the charges against Absalom, but I didn't agree."

Louis’ eyes were serious. "I'm afraid that she may attack you as Absalom did."

After a pause, he says, "Move to my place, because there is safer for you."

"No, I'm staying in the apartment," Lily refuses.

If she really moves over, it will be equivalent to accepting Louis, but she can't.

Louis is about to say something more.

Lily immediately says, "It's alright, I still get the ring Coffey gave me, and I don't think Yuna is a bad person."

"You can't tell one's personalities through his appearance," Louis sneers, as if he is angry, "At that time, you also thought that Absalom would not do anything to you. But he still sent someone to kidnap you to the hospital! Doesn't your brother need to accompany his girlfriend? He can't help you solve problems every time."

"What are you doing? Are you shouting at me?" Lily says confusedly, "I won't stop them from dating, and what I mean is that if anything happens, I can contact him urgently."

"Can't you change an emergency contact?"

"He is my brother. Why should I change?"

The anger in Louis’ heart grows vigorously. He puts down his chopsticks and says to Lily, "Come over here."

Lily doesn't move, saying, "Just say it."

She even casually fiddles with the ring on her finger.

This action totally irritates Louis. He stands up and presses himself against Lily's body, grabs the back of her head, and kisses her fiercely.

While Lily is dumbfounded, he takes off the ring on her finger.

"Mr. Smith...."

David knocks on the door and comes in. He is about to say something. Seeing this scene, his mouth wide opens, and he takes a few steps back.

Louis has to let her go and glances at David in displeasure.

David feels awkward and regrets that he didn't wait outside a little longer. He carefully says, "Shall I close the door for you?"

"No need, come in!"

David walks in, puts down the documents and reports quickly, "Mr. Smith, I have already handed the work over to the secretary department. Secretary Horn will be responsible for your itineraries in the future. I will fly to New York at 8 pm."

Lily forgets about being forcefully kissed and turns to look at David, asking, "Why are you going to New York?"

"The New York branch is understaffed." David is crying silently in his heart, but he had to lie. "So, Mr. Smith sends me to the New York branch to work for two months."

"Then what about your cat?"

"My cat...."

Just as David is about to speak, Louis interrupts him, saying, "I will send someone to take care of his cat and dog."

"Yes, Mr. Smith is really kind," David says falsely, "He's the best boss."
