Chapter 280: Louis Comes!
Chapter 280: Louis Comes!
“Maybe.” Yuna forces a smile. It has been decades during which many things happened. You cannot
compensate for some things even if you want to.
Yuna has a few more conversations with Daisy before answering a call. It seems that she has
something to deal with and has to leave.
“I haven’t brought a gift for you. Please receive this.” Yuna palms a bulging bag on Daisy’s hand, “Just
regard it as a gift for Lily for our first meeting.”
Daisy hurriedly pushes it back, “Oh, it can’t be like this. You haven’t met her. You can gift it to her later.”
“Are you treating me as a stranger?”
“I didn’t mean that.”
“That’s it. Then just receive it.” Yuna smiles and presses the bag into her arms, “Louis has so many
shortcomings. Please be patient to him.”
Daisy hastily replies, “He have good qualities and is capable.”
“I’ll visit you next time.”
It seems that the caller was anxiously waiting for Yuna, so Yuna leaves hurriedly after finishing the
sentence.
Daisy sees Yuna off until she walks into the life. She looks down at the bad in her hand and murmurs
confusedly, “Louis’ mother is beautiful, but why do I feel that they don’t look like each other? Is it that
Louis resembles his father?”
She was so hospitable that she even couldn’t bear it.
After the lunch, Lily comes back to the company together with Louis. She tells Louis that she wants to
have a leave of several days, yet Louis just raises his eyebrows and gives a simple reply.
Lily is so curious that she asks, “Why don’t you ask where I’m going to?”
Louis then asks, “Where are you going?”
“Holidays!” Lily sulks, “I want to enjoy myself for a few days in a place where no one knows about me.”
“See. You would not tell the truth even if I asked you.” Louis smiles helplessly, “Then enjoy yourself.
You can come back to work when you’re completely in a good mood.”
Lily turns her head to look at him with confusion in her gaze.
It’s really strange. This man would be jealous even if she’s getting alone with her younger brother and
is so overbearing. But now she wants to spend her holiday alone. Why isn’t he worried?
“Louis.”
“Yes?”
“Aren’t you worried since I’m going on holiday alone?” Lily smirks, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll fall in love
with the other man?”
Louis chuckles and says confidently, “You don’t have the guts to do so. To top it off, even if you
encounter such a man, I’m definitely more outstanding and richer than him.”
Lily rolls her eyes at him, “You’re really narcissistic.”
“It’s not narcissism, it’s the truth!” Louis corrects her.
Lily ignores him.
After coming back to the company and settling the tasks assigned to her before, Lily writes an
application for leave and calls Daisy when she’s free, telling her that she will go abroad to spend her
holiday.
Daisy has come back home earlier. Knowing that Lily will go abroad with her friends, she doesn’t
interfere too much in it and just reminds her to remain vigilant about her person security. She ponders
for a while and adds, “Louis’ mother is pretty.”
“Mom, how do you know it?” Lily asks.
She keeps that family photo which is one of the information found out by Coffee, but she remembers
that she hasn’t showed it to her mom.
Daisy replies, “Louis is so handsome, so his mom and dad must have good appearances.”
Oh, so it is like this.
Lily thinks of the photo. Louis’ mother is really a rare stunner. She replies, “Yep. But his parents died
long time ago. It’s really a pity.”
Daisy is dumbfounded. She stammers, “His… His mom and dad are all dead?”
“Yes. You may have not heard of it since you rarely pay attention to the news.” Lily explains, “His
parents died in an accident when he’s six, and he was then adopted by Master Smith.”
“Then… In the morning…”
“Mom, what happened in the morning?” Lily asks out of curiosity.
Daisy seems to be lost in her thoughts. After a few moments, she finally replies, “Oh, nothing. Louis is
in a bad mood in the morning, and I thought it might because he was missing his parents.”
“He was in a bad mood? Why didn’t I perceive it?”
“I’ve experienced more than you? Are you a match for me?” Daisy doesn’t want to continue this topic
and finds an excuse, “I have to prepare the dishes for tomorrow. Let’s stop here.”
She hangs up the phone after finishing the words.
Lily sighs inwardly, feeling her mom cares more about the dishes than her.
On Friday…
Stella comes to pick up Lily and Jessie at half past seven. Although Stella is dressing causally, she
looks so elegant, like a model that just finishes a fashion show.
Jessie says enviously, “I would still look good in a sack if I have a good figure like yours.”
“Oh no. If you have a good figure like hers, people would think that you’re a lunatic who just runs away
from a mad house with your personality.” Lily pats her shoulder and acts, “It’s good even if you’re about
1.5.”
“Lily, you make fun of me!” Jessie glares at her, “You’re as bad as Mr. Smith!”
“Yeah, we’re all bad. Only you’re cute.”
“Humph!” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
After fishing packing, the three of them go downstairs and get on a recreational vehicle which has a
low-key appearance but luxurious decoration inside. It’s luxurious from every aspect as even the
refrigerator is decorated with diamonds.
Jessie clings to Stella, constantly asking whether she wants a younger sister, “It’s okay if you don’t
want a younger sister. I’m still young. When you give birth to a son, I think I can still wait for him for
fifteen years. I can even address you as my mother-in-law!”
Lily lands a slap on her head, “Money-minded!”
“No, it’s just that I respect money.” Jessie smirks, “Lily, if you present me a Bugatti, I can also marry
your son.”
“…”
The vehicle arrives at the port after a forty-minute drive.
There are a large number of water crafts at the port, big or small, among which, a four-story cruise ship
with a whale sign on its bow is the most eye-catching one. It looks grand and magnificent from outside.
“Oh my god!” Jessie looks up at the ‘Whale’ and exclaims, “’Whale’ is little-known, but it’s so
magnificent. Would the ‘World’ be more amazing?”
She nudges Lily and asks excitedly, “Lily, when can we board on the ‘World’? I’m too impatient to wait
for it!”
Lily sneers, “You don’t have the opportunity anymore. I have asks the staff to block you and Leigh!”
Jessie puckers up her lips. “Alas, Lily, aren’t you going too far?” Leigh emerges from thin air and puts
her arm around Jessie’s shoulders, “How can you bully my darling in this way?”
“Why are you here?” Lily pulls a long face and glares at Jessie, as if she’s looking at a betrayer.
“I swear, I didn’t tell him about this!” Jessie raises her hand, yet secretly curves her fingers. She then
asks Leigh with rage, “Say it! Why are you here?”
Leigh is quite cooperative with her acting. He smirks, “There’s a positioner in your phone. I come
following its instruction. You’re to be blamed since you didn’t tell me the truth. Oh, it comes that you’re
going to have fun abroad.”
“It’s my business!” Jessie flings off his hand, “Shameless man! You followed me secretly!”
Leigh clings to Jessie again, like a dogskin plaster, “It’s because I’m afraid of you being bullied. Oh no, I
have come with you to protect you guys.”
“It’s unnecessary.”
“I’ll pay bills for you and carry things for you.”
“No need!” Jessie rejects in a huff. But she can’t cast off him, so she turns to Lily and says weakly, “Lily,
it’s really not my fault. Please believe me.”
Lily grits her teeth, “Believe you, my ass!”
They’ve agreed that this will be a holiday limited to the three girls. But since Leigh also comes, he
would definitely have PDA with Jessie later. Would she and Jessie have a wonderful holiday being two
third-wheels?
Lily vigilantly glances around the port, trying to find whether that man is also here.
She has a hunch that something is wrong!
