Chapter 341: Mr. Smith and Miss Lily Are Fine
Chapter 341: Mr. Smith and Miss Lily Are Fine
When Lily resigned, Louis didn’t eliminate this department. He kept it until Lily came back to serve as a
manager. This time, however, he directly eliminates the department.
Does this mean…
Miss Lily and Mr. Smith broke up completely, and Mr. Smith has no intentions of bringing her back?
David glances at Louis and says euphemistically, his tone careful, “Mr. Smith, women are a little
temperamental. I think if you just coax a little more, Miss Lily will come back…”
“David.” Louis interrupts him, looking at him with his sharp gloomy eyes, “You have been with me for so
many years and you know what kind of person I am. You have been talking way too much lately.”
David quickly lowers his head, not daring to try and care about such things anymore, “I’m sorry, Mr.
Smith, I overstepped my boundaries.”
When David is about to go out, Louis adds indifferently, “Tell Human Resources to remove Lily’s
information. Where ever she goes, she will have nothing to do with Smith Group.”
“Okay, Sir.”
As soon as he leaves the president’s office, David fails to remain his expressions any longer. He racks
his brain to think: Why did Miss Lily break up with Mr. Smith?
David has been following Louis for so many years, and he knows very few instances of… no, almost no
instances of emotional indulgence on Louis’s part. Lily is the first one.
He has watched Louis being affected by Lily, his mood changing day by day and his smile gradually
increasing. He even saw a touch of gentleness in Louis’s eyes.
Some time ago, David had to run to Japan for some errands and he saw their feelings clearly.
It was the first time that he saw Louis beating up a person because Lily was injured. It was also the first
time for him to see Louis, who never liked to join in the fun, dragged them on the stage in front of
thousands of people. And it was only because of Lily’s words about being adventurous. He even sang
the song “Perfect” for Lily.
What is it, if not love?
“Mr. Smith went home that day and then came back to the company, but his attitude was cold and full
of indifference. Why…” David mutters, still thinking that his trip to the Smith family is the crux of the
problem!
“David!” A secretary hurries over, “There is a lady in the lobby downstairs who is looking for Mr. Smith,
but she doesn’t have an appointment. What do you think I should do?”
David trembles and asks hurriedly, “Is Miss Lily back?”
“No.” The secretary shakes her head with a puzzled face, “No, it’s not Miss Lily. The lady who is here is
old and I don’t know why she is here. She has a thermos in her hand.”
“Okay, I’ll go and see.” David guesses that it must be Lily’s mother and quickly takes the elevator to go
down.
David looks around when he reaches the first floor, and sees a small looking middle-aged woman
standing there with a thermos. She was indeed Daisy.
David hurries over, “Madame, how come you are here?”
“Today, I came just to look around.” When she sees him, she finally breathes a sigh of relief.
She hands the thermos and two bottles of wine to David, “Here, it’s pig trotters and seaweed soup,
please give it to Louis. Lily said that you like to drink. Newly brewed wine is not ready, I only have this
much. I hope you don’t dislike it.”
“Oh, no, no, how can I dislike it?” David quickly takes the thermos and bottles and smiles, “You
remembered me and brought me this, I am already very touched. Let me take you upstairs.”
“No need to go up, I came here to find you.” Daisy waves her hand and then asks hesitantly, “Do you
know what happened to Louis and Lily? Did they… break up?”
David is startled and tries to keep smiling, “Why do you think that?”
Daisy sighs, “A week ago, Lily called me and said that she was going abroad for some time. Before I
could ask her anything, she hung up. Later, I tried to call her again a few times but her phone was
turned off. Then I thought about her mood when she called. Did she get angry with Louis?”
“Absolutely nothing happened!” David says solemnly, “Mr. Smith and Miss Lily are fine! Miss Lily went
abroad because of work, you are just thinking too much about it.”
“Is that so?”
David nods and says with a smile, “Madame, I am with Mr. Smith every day, I would know if there was
something. Don’t worry, they are fine!”
“Well, now that you put it like that. I can be rest assured.”
When leaving, she thinks of something and calls David over again and then asks if he has any friends
who do embroidery.
Thinking that Daisy wants to start a side business, David eagerly talks about all the people from Smith This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
Group’s traditional embroidery company and then personally sends her off.
Looking at the thermos in his hands, David thinks about Mr. Smith’s indifference and his office that feels
like an ice cellar. He sighs deeply.
Mr. Smith and Miss Lily already broke up, what should I do about these pig trotters and seaweed soup?
David thinks.
Should he take it to Louis or not?
...
Lily knows that the phone call from Louis finished everything between them, but she can’t help it. She
owes John too much that she can’t just watch him have a mishap.
She has cleaned up her mood and left such things behind her quite quickly.
Since coming to country F, John’s condition has gradually improved. From coughing more than a dozen
times a day, and often coughing up blood, now he is coughing less and even the amount of blood has
reduced. Lily also feels a lot better in her heart.
Lily has already sorted out the map Jessie gave her. She wants to check all the laboratories one by one
until she finds the Justin’s.
John wants to accompany her but she refuses strongly.
The North District is very cold these days, it often rains, and the temperature is only four or five
degrees centigrade during the day. She is afraid that the cold and humid air would aggravate his illness
and requires him to stay in the hotel to recuperate.
The laboratories on the map are scattered in every corner of the North District. In order to facilitate
travel, Lily rents a car and follows the route on the map.
She drives the whole day and finds secret laboratories one after another, but not Justin’s. Lily knows
that Justin served Country LH and is very prestigious in the international community. He certainly
knows how to do research. Lily euphemistically asks a researcher to find out where Justin’s laboratory
is.
However, the researcher says that they know each other and that all laboratories exchange contact
numbers and addresses, but the personnel information and addresses of the laboratories are
confidential, so she will have to find it herself.
Lily has to give up.
Time passes quickly on her way to find the laboratory.
After another day of searching outside, she finds nothing. In the evening, Lily drives back to the hotel,
tired all over. She finds the hotel lobby decorated brightly with blessings for the new year.
It turns out that the Spring Festival is near in the country Z.
When Lily takes the elevator, she looks at the rapidly changing number and rubs her forehead thinking
that she and John have been in country F for half a month, but she still hasn’t found anything.
Getting anxious, she thinks of calling Justin and asking him for the address of his laboratory, but at the
moment she dials the number, she gives up again.
Even if Justin agrees, she will still owe Louis a favor. In addition, Louis has said that he would not
attack Justin, but he would not give him a way to survive in vain either.
