A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 217: Clueless Father and Son Meeting

“If you really appreciate me, I will humbly accept, and thank you.” Lily dislikes Brianna’s arrogant

attitude, and that tone which makes people uncomfortable. “Please tell me what you need directly.”

Brianna elegantly sips on her cup of coffee, “I’ve seen the contract between you and Daniel. Your

family background isn’t that great, but if you’re hard working enough, you might just be able to pass

and get together with my son.”

“You’ve seen it?” She thinks of the contract between herself and Daniel and can never imagine he will

even let Brianna look through it. The anger in her is burning, she then says, “Mr. Daniel is just joking

with me.”

“Whether or not it’s a joke, I can tell.” Brianna narrows her eyes, her tone revealing dissatisfaction, “My

son’s too stubborn, of all people he could want, he went for a bastard daughter. Hmph, she really has

some charms. It’s been 4 years. He actually signed this contract with you for her.”

“But never mind now.” She then says, “It’s a waste that a man like President Smith is married to Stella,

but when they get married, I will be relieved.”

Lily and Stella aren’t close, and she does not want to be a busybody, but Brianna’s tone makes her

angry, “Don’t keep talking about bastard daughters, Miss Scott is already recognised and accepted by

the Scott family. She has already entered the Scott hierarchy, don't you know? She owns 20% of the

Scott Group’s stock.”

Brianna smiles with disdain, “She really had some abilities - only could she force the Scott’s to

recognise her. But in my heart, she’s a bastard daughter from head to toe, this is unchangeable.”

How can the Lou family be contaminated by a bastard daughter?

“My son is a smart man; he had a bright future ahead of him.” Brianna’s face went dark, “If it isn’t for

that goddamned bastard daughter, he would’ve taken over his father’s place!”

“It’s your problem if you don’t like her, I don’t have the right to interfere.” Lily stands up from her chair, “I

don’t have anything more to say to you, I’ll take my leave.”

Brianna follows her and pulls her hand, looking as if they are close. “I admit that I don’t like her, but I

still like you, Miss Lily.”

“I can tell that Daniel really likes you, and you’re a motivated person. You’re now HZ Group’s vice

president, if you can get the Lou family’s help, you could thread smoothly from then on.”

Lily is disgusted.

This Brianna really is a drama queen. She was so arrogant before, and she was trying to intimidate her.

But seeing Lily not falling for her, she goes ahead to pull her hand and act as if they are so close. She’s

really awesome!

“Auntie, I’m not interested in your son. Your son isn't interested in me either.” Lily pulls her hand away,

her attitude strong and cold. “Whatever I wish to gain, I would do it myself. Thank you.”

Brianna holds on tightly to her hand, her smile light. “It’s okay, you can start being friends first. You

might not know, maybe after time, you might develop some feelings. You are a nice girl.”

“…”

“I don’t have anything to give you either. But this jade bangle is given to me by Daniel’s grandmother.”

As she says this, she takes off the purple jade bangle from her thin wrist. Not waiting for Lily to react,

she takes her hand and pushes the bangle directly onto her wrist.

Lily isn’t as groomed as Brianna; her wrists are definitely stiffer. When the bangle is forced onto her, the

pain shoots through her lungs and kidneys, and she takes in a deep, cold breath.

Lily’s expression is slightly twisted and she is almost unable to speak, “Auntie, you…”

She swallows the vulgar words back into her throat because of her good upbringing and takes in

another cold breath, while Brianna holds her hand, and smiles, “This is just a small gift, keep it.”

“I thank you very much!” Lily forces the words out through her gritted teeth. The pain is all she could

focus on, and she does not notice the lenses that are focused on them for quite some time already.

Lily is already having a hard time escaping from Brianna. Looking at her red, swollen wrists, she wants

to smash the bangle to pieces. But she is also afraid that Brianna would want it back, so she stomps

angrily into a jade store.

“Help me take this off, but don’t spoil it.”

A few people in the shop come over to help and put on a whole dollop of moisturizer onto her hands,

trying to take off the jade bangle. But because when Brianna was putting it on for her, it was forced on.

So, both sides of her wrists hurt when they touches them. It is only when a helper holds onto Lily’s arm,

did they manage to take off the bangle.

The jade store helper carefully puts the purple bangle into a box for Lily, and says enviously, “This

purple jade bangle is really clear. It’s worth at least 100,000 CNY. You really have good taste, Miss.”

“…”

Thank god she held herself back and didn’t smash the bangle and asked these people for help instead.

Lily massages her hurting wrist, and when she leaves the mall, she receives a bunch of messages from

Chandler, asking her where she is. Judging from his messages, Chandler seems to be anxious, as if

there is something emergent.

She looks at the time and feels it unnecessary to return to the office. So, she texts Chandler the

address of the restaurant. Chandler arrives just after her order comes.

“Have you eaten?” Lily pushes the menu towards him, “Have a look.”

“Lily, something huge is up!” Chandler pulls his mask down and reveals an anxious expression. “Have

you seen the news? My mother is going to marry someone else.”

Lily knows that he is smart and that he is going to see the news report sooner or later. But she is

helpless in this matter as well.

“Have you asked your mum?”

Chandler clenches his fists, and says angrily, “I did, but mum says she HAD to marry this person

because of some matters. She asked me to leave it behind, but how could I?”

“Even if she had no other choice, it is the fact that she will get married and now the whole country

knows! She says before that when dad comes back on the Lunar New Year, we would go skiing in

Hokkaido. But she lied to me and lied to Dad.”

Lily is stunned, “Did your mum really say that? That your dad would come back on New Year?”

But Chandler’s dad is Daniel, why would Stella say that? Is this just a lie for Chandler? Or is she going

to just look for a random man to deceive Chandler? Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yeah, she did.” Chandler says depressingly, “But the things that mum is doing now, makes me feel that

she’s lying to me. I just want my dad; I don’t want that President Smith to become my dad.”

Lily massages her brows, also frustrated, “Technically he couldn’t be your dad either!”

If that’s the case, isn’t the whole relationship messier?

Chandler raises his head to look at Lily, his eyes shining, “Lily, do you like that President Smith? How

about this - I’ll help you and President Smith elope!”

“You, what are you talking about!” Lily chokes on her curry and her face turns red. She chugs a whole

cup of water, and says in a bashing manner, “Who would like that man?

Chandler continues asking, “Then why did you say that he couldn’t be my dad?”

‘Because he’s your father’s buddy!’

Lily rubs her forehead and says, “Because he’s not a good man, you know? I’m scared that if your

mum marries him, she would suffer.”

“I think so.” Chandler agrees with her, and disclaims, “He’s not handsome either, and he’s far inferior to

my dad. I don’t even know how he managed to earn so much money.”

“...”

“Lily, you’re so smart, don’t you have any ideas?” Chandler looks at her with puppy eyes. Those pink

cheeks of his really trigger Lily’s impulse to pinch them.

Lily says, “I really don’t. What about you?”

“Me too.” Chandler scratches the back of his head, deep in thought.

Then his eyes light up, and he tells Lily, “How about when we attend their wedding, we find someone to

crash it, saying that he’s a womanizer. Maybe then they won’t work out.”
