Katherine shouts, "Aunt!"
It turns out to be Olivia, the aunt of Louis and Katherine.
"You are all here." Olivia nods slightly, looks into the red-lit operating room, and asks Katherine, "I heard Louis had a car accident. How's he?"
"He is still in the operating room. We don't know about it." says Katherine, and then squints at Lily, "This is Lily, the manager of the Regulators. She was in Louis's car."
At the sound of Lily's name, Olivia's pupils shrivel. She turns her sharp eyes at Lily and stares at her. Her face is calm but she is excited in the heart.
She's only heard of Lily, but has never seen her. It’s she who has turned down her business, followed Louis to Turkey to discuss the business, and had her finger broken!
Olivia walks up to Lily, who is shorter than Lily but more commanding, and slaps Lily in the face.
Lily is about to do something when Jason grabs her arm and pulls her behind him. The sudden slap hits Jason on the lower side of his face and chin.
Jason licks the corner of his numb lip and says, “Olivia, Lily is my ex-wife and she got hurt. The accident was caused by the car going the wrong way, not her fault."
"You're divorced, and you still protect her?" says Olivia angrily, “Is she more important than your cousin?”
"Olivia, are you out of your mind?" Jason says, "Wait for the police to check the surveillance and find out the reason for the accident. If it's really her fault, you can teach her a lesson."
Katherine laughs, "Jason, it’s your ex-wife who broke the news about your affair and got you transferred to Shetland North branch and everybody laughed at you. I don't understand why you're protecting your ex-wife."
Jason only says, "It is my fault for cheating. I hurt her, and it's reasonable for her to get even with me. But after all, we had married, and I can't watch her get beaten."
Lily looks at Jason.
The man seems to have changed a lot. Why?
Olivia pulls her hand back, and Lily notices that she has only four fingers on her right hand, and her ring finger is empty, as if it has been cut off from the flat cut.
"This is the business of the Smith family," Olivia says. "We don't need outsiders here. Go away."
Olivia’s words indicate that she doesn’t recognize him as a member of the Smith family. Jason is just a distant relative of the family.
Jason doesn't care about it, and his expression doesn't change. He just turns around and grabs Lily's hand. "Let’s go. you. The cut on your shoulder needs to be treated or it will fester.”
Lily doesn't talk or leave.
No matter how many people from the Smith family are concerned about Louis’ life and death, she can’t believe them.
"Lily." Jason gives her a tug.
Lily does not move.
"Come on, hurry up, you are not needed here!" Katherine is impatient and wants to call security to get rid of her.
Security doesn't show up, but three men do.
There comes three men, each taller than the other, with outstanding facial features, but in different shapes.
Especially the one walking in front. His outline is clear, showing sharp and indifferent look. Under the black pants are long legs walking fast, which gives a kind of lifeless feeling.
Lily looks at the man's face in a daze, like she has seen him before. Then, the face of the little boy she met in the mall a few days ago gradually overlaps the man's face.
The little boy is a chip off the old block!
Is it a coincidence?
Lily is still in a maze, but the three men have already come up.
Justin, who has met Lily on the video before, greets her with a gentle tone, “Miss Lily.”
