Chapter 277: Louis, You Are So Cruel
It takes Lily a long while to calm down.
She looks at the photo again and finds it familiar. It seems like...
She opens the album in her phone and compares it with the photo of Louis that she accidentally took a
long time ago in the hotel. It is indeed Louis, but the head was replaced.
The photo has always been kept in the album of her phone. How did Daniel's mother obtain it?
Lily keeps wondering. She thinks of the position that Daniel's father is in and the things Daniel's mother
has done, which makes her filled with righteous indignation.
Daniel’s mother is such a wicked person!
Lily takes a deep breath and calls Stella to make a clearance, “You saw Entertainment Weekly? They
were all made up by those journalists, and the persons on the photo aren’t me and Daniel.”
“I know.” Stella smiles at the other end of the phone, “I can identify my man’s body at first sight.”
Lily clears her throat and changes the topic, “It was Daniel's mother who did this. I took Chandler to
have dinner in the wine party yesterday. Daniel's mother found me and urged me to marry Daniel,
which led to a quarrel.”
Lily also explained to Stella about the contract.
After hearing everything, Stella nods her head and says in a more pleasant voice, “I am sorry for what
happened to you. Daniel’s mother is indeed a person who would do everything to chase me away. Just
leave the rest to me.”
“Judging by your voice...you are happy about it?” Lily is confused, “How can you still be happy?”
Stella smiles, “I know that my man only sees me in his eyes. Shouldn’t I be happy? By the way, are you
available on Friday? I want to invite you to have a meal with me to extend my gratitude.”
Lily checks the calendar and finds the timing isn’t appropriate, “I asked for several days’ leave to take a
trip.”
“With President Smith?”
“No, my friend accidentally won three free tickets which cover a trip to Japan. Food and bed are both
included.” Lily says, “I haven’t had a vocation for a long time. So I plan to join her.”
Stella slightly nods and smiles, “I haven’t had a vocation for a long time too. Mind if I join you?”
“Of course not. I will talk to her.”
“It’s fine. You can forward her WeChat to me. I have something to talk with her too.”
Lily does what she says.
When hanging up the phone, Lily hears Stella looking for something at the other end of the phone.
Then Stella says, “I heard that your mother likes making dishes and wine. Long Peace Group owns
several shops in the Ole Supermarket, and the lease of one shop has ended. I will have my assistant
take the contract to the Smith Group in afternoon, as a token of my gratitude.”
“There is no need for that.” Lily refuses and smiles, “You can buy me dinner next time.”
Stella says, “You know the rent in Ole Supermarket is high, and I am unwilling to drop the price either.
So I might as well rent it to you as a token of gratitude. If you think it is too much, when auntie makes
something delicious next time, you can just send me some.”
Lily doesn’t reject anymore “Okay, thanks!”
“No problem.”
Lily forwards Jessie’s WeChat to Stella. After several minutes, a colleague walks in with a document.
“Manager, President Smith asks you to sign this.”
“He can do this himself. Why does he keep bothering me!” Lily complains. Now that Louis has checked
it, she doesn’t need to check it again. So she raises her pen and swiftly signs her name on the last
paper.
The colleague takes the document and walks out.
As soon as the door is closed, a bunch of people come close to the colleague and asks him, “I heard
from the secretary department that it is the franchise of the Ole Supermarket. Is it true? Open it and let
us see!”
“In your dream!” The colleague flaps the document at their hands in a hard way and says angrily,
“President Smith said this should be kept a secret. And still you talked about this with the secretary
department. Do you intend to get fired?”
“We just talk about it in our own department. We won’t tell anyone else.”
In the Smith Group, once a news spreads, it won’t be difficult to locate the source. Besides, Lily is the
manager of this department. They wouldn’t want their boss to be fired.
The colleague nods his head, “It is indeed the franchise of the Ole Supermarket.”
“Wow!”
They all take a deep breath and look at Lily through the glass door at the same time. One of them says
with envy, “The net benefit of the Ole Supermarket reaches hundreds of millions. President Smith just
gives it away to Manager Lily.”
Another colleague makes an instant guess, “Did you watch the news? The Lou family is also quite
famous in Yorkshire. Is it because President Smith got jealous after watching the news? So he chose a
gift and sent it to Manager Lily?”
“President is so generous. He gives away the entire franchise of a supermarket. What a rich man!”
“Then who is Manager Lily going to pick?”
“I wonder too.”
A colleague gives a sly smile and says, “I think Manager Lily can collect more presents from them and
starts her own company after getting rich. Isn’t that nice!”
“...”
Lily, who is buried in her work, has zero idea that she accidentally received another gift from Louis.
At noon, Jessie brings two boxes of takeout food to Lily’s department.
The takeout food is all from JS Restaurant, and everyone in the department has a share. Lily glances
at her lunchbox and asks in surprise, “What are you doing? Buying lunch for all of us?”
Jessie grins and says, “I made a fortune.”
“You won the bet with Leigh?”
“His money is also mine. It’s no fun to make money out of him!” Jessie purses her lips and opens the
lunchbox for Lily. She says mysteriously, “I made the money from President Scott.”
Lily nods and says, “She wants to join us in the trip to Japan too. So she got your WeChat from me and
wants to buy a ticket from you.”
“Do you know how much she gave me?”
“How much?”
Jessie gestures at Lily and smiles even more happily, “Two million!”
“Puh!” Lily chokes on her food and drinks a mouth of water immediately. After a long while, she asks,
“The trip is worth no more than 20 thousand, and you charged her two million?”
“President Scott insisted to transfer me so much money. What could I do?” Jessie shrugs her shoulders
and instantly grabs Lily’s hand before saying with a pitiful face, “Lily, if I have done anything wrong, you
must forgive me!”
The goosebumps on Lily’s arms are up now, “You sold me out?”
“...It’s not entirely true.”
In other words, she sold Lily out.
An hour later, Leigh finally saw the moment posted by Jessie, which was blocked from Lily.
“Damn!” Leigh is shocked and sits up on the couch.
“What’s wrong with you again?” Louis looks at him with unhappiness and says in an unpleasant voice,
“We are discussing important business, and you are so jumpy. I think the job as a lobby boy in hotel is
more suitable for you.”
Leigh says in surprise, “Jessie and Lily are hanging out with Stella now. And they are going for a trip in
Japan!”
Louis smirks, “She is not your doll who has to stay on your back every day!”
“What? When did I say I would dominate her social life? It is a moment posted by Jessie!” Leigh hands
the phone to Louis, “See for yourself.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Jessie: (Smile Emoji) I am going to take a trip in Japan with two little sisters. We will be aboard the Blue
Whale Cruise and leave for Japan on Friday. Is any little brother going for the trip too? Two little sisters
are still single!
Posted below are photos of Lily and Stella. They look beautiful from any angle and can stir up affection
in anyone who sets eyes on them.
Louis’s eyes darken, “What the hell is she up to?”
“I visited her Weibo with my another Weibo account. It seems like she has won three tickets to a
Japanese trip.” Leigh lays his hand on Louis’s shoulder and says with a faked sad voice, “I am so cute
and still my wife wants other young guys.”
“Move your hand!”
Leigh moves away his hand in silence, “You are not my beloved brother, Louis. You are so
cruel.”
