Just at that moment, the elevator door opens. Lily, leaning against the door, suddenly loses her balance and falls back.
Louis reaches out his hand and catches her.
The man's fingertips are cold. After he stables Lily, he quickly let go of her. The whole process is less than ten seconds.
Lily hasn't reacted to what is going on.
Louis presses on the floor button and says, "Miss Lily, just take it as you are helping your minister. You said you don't believe your minister died accidentally, and then seek justice for him."
Sure enough!
Lily knows she has guesses it right. For such a cautious man, how could he die of a heart attack by staying up several nights?
"Mr. Louis, do you know something?" Lily turns to look at him.
"I know it doesn't mean I can solve it." Louis says, his eyes cold, “You should know about the Smith Group from what happened to you when you went to Turkey."
Lily clenches her fist.
Everyone in the Smith Group wants to get a piece of pie. Besides, Louis is not the real son of the Mr. Smith, which leads to more internal fights in the Smith Group, and Louis is the most tired one.
She glances at Louis, and at this angle she could only see his outline, which is cold and clam. Somehow a touch of pity wells up in her heart.
Louis is only a man no matter how powerful he is. He isn’t the iron man.
After taking a deep breath, Lily says quietly, "Ok, I'll take this position. I'm not doing it for Mr. Louis or the Smith Group, but for the minister who used to take care of me. I am grateful to him, and I want to seek justice for him."
Louis's thin lips lift as if he is smiling.
Soon the elevator arrives at the translation department and the door opens. Louis reaches out his hand to Lily. His fingers are slim and long, looking strong and pretty, "Miss Lily, I will trouble you in the future.
"Fine."
Until the elevator door closes, Lily still stands in the doorway. Her hand is still hot.
It seems that after returning from Turkey, Louis becomes gentlemanly and restrained again, as if they didn’t know each other very well. She suddenly wants to see the Louis who got drunk in the village that day.
He was gentle and considerate, calling her "Ma 'am" in a provocative voice.
This idea has just passed through Lily's mind for a while. However, Lily is very frightened. Not only her ears are red, but also her face is blushed.
She's crazy. Why would she think about that?
Louis's nonchalance is not unusual. They didn’t know each other very well.
As soon as Lily enters the translation department, her colleagues gather around her, gossiping about what has happened. They are so surprised that they seem to have known what the high-level meeting is for.
"Thanks to the kindness of Mr. Louis, I will be transferred to the new department of Regulators." Lily smiles, "But we are still colleagues. I will come to the translation department frequently in the future."
"Lily, does Mr. Louis ask you to choose your own subordinates? Would you choose from our translation department?"
Regulators department, the second director of Mr. Louis, can enter any departments of the Smith Group. Even the manager couldn’t refuse it. How wonderful it will be to be in the Regulators!
"Yes, but the secretary sends me the information. So, it's still Mr. Louis who decides the staffs.”
Everyone is disappointed at hearing that.
