What was she trying to do? Is she crazy!
Lily is completely confused by the man's appearance and the unknown emotion in her heart. Her heart seems to be about to jump out. She gets up hurriedly and leaves the ward as if fleeing.
The air conditioner outside the hospital room is very strong. It blows on Lily's face and makes her somber.
The floor of the inpatient room is empty except for the entrance, where there are a few bodyguards. She is about to wash her face, but when she reaches the corner, she hears a faint voice from the other side.
Lily doesn't stop walking. She leans out and sees Stella and Daniel standing at the water dispenser. The space between them is very wide and the atmosphere is very tensed.
All she could see from this angle is Daniel standing sideways, but Stella's complicated eyes comes into her eyes. Lily says to herself, did Stella know Daniel?
Stella's definitely not in the mood, or she could see Lily if she looks up.
She looks at Daniel very carefully. He is inanimate and impossible to get close to. In the past four years, the cold and hard face has been haunting her mind every moment.
As if something is stuck in her throat, it takes a while for Stella to speak, "I don't know you are brothers."
"It's not surprised that Miss Stella doesn't know about it." Daniel's voice is calm, but icy, "Doesn’t Louis tell you that I don't know Miss Stella?"
His words make Stella look pain. She doesn’t control her emotions and squeezes the plastic water bottle, and the back of her hand turns red with the scalding water.
Daniel doesn't seem to see it, and turns around with a straight face.
Stella is dull for several seconds. When she recollects her mind, she staggers up and grabs his arm, her lips are shaking, "Daniel, say it again."
He says he doesn't know her!
She takes a deep breath and says calmly, "You need to be nice. Let's talk, talk about...”
"I don't want to know Miss Stella." Daniel interrupts Stella, seeming impatient, and just throws her hand away, forcefully and rudely.
Stella loses her footing in her high heels, and falls to the ground, grinning in pain. Daniel is a bit anxious, but he still leaves resolutely.
He happens to come face to face with Lily around the corner.
There is a touch of rage across the man's face, Lily's back feels chilled in the back as she sees Daniel. She stammers, "I want to wash my face, but I didn't realize you are talking here..."
And the conversation is so short that she could hardly leave in time.
Lily wants to make it clear that she doesn't want to listen to them, but Daniel doesn't even give her a look. He walks past her with cold wind, which makes Lily shiver.
Seeing Stella still on the floor, Lily rushes over to help her up, "How are you?"
"I'm fine." Stella smiles lightly, pats the dust on her dress, and keeps her elegance, as if she isn't the sentimental at all.
Lily doesn't have a tendency to pry into other people's affairs. Even if she guesses that there is something happened to Stella and Daniel before, she won’t ask if Stella doesn't tell her. Then she goes to the bathroom.
On the way out of the hospital, Lily meets Chloe who gets out of the babysitter's car.
She didn’t expect Chloe to be at the hospital so late.
But she isn't interested in chatting with Chloe. She has a lot of things to deal with. Just as she steps down the stairs, she is severely dragged by Chloe who passes by.
Chloe looks at the cheque crumbs on the ground, then at Lily, grits her teeth angrily. "Do you dare to tear my cheque?! Lily, I have given you the chance to leave, but you want to go against me."
"Don’t you insult me first?" says Lily, "What’s wrong with I don’t listen to you? Even if I have a boyfriend, our relationship is not something you can measure with money."
Chloe stomps her feet and glares at Lily with resentment.
She doesn't understand why Gray Wolf falls in love with such a scheming, wicked woman and doesn't want to break up with her.
Lily, if you want to go against me, you have to think about the consequences." Chloe warns. Now she is Gray Wolf's boss. She has to be responsible for her man and can't let him suffer any harm.
What’s more, she does not want her man to be the boyfriend of her enemy!
Lily is really defeated by this stupid girl. She is now helping the Smith Group and Louis. Chloe still wants to deal with her. Is she kidding?
Lily looks at the phone and sees that it is late now. She doesn't want to waste time with her. She takes a step forward and stares at Chloe sharply. Chloe is scared by her and stands there blankly.
"Miss Chloe, in my previous remarks, none of the words indicate that I want to go against you. You can do whatever you like, but if it involves the Smith Group, I won't let you go." says Lily.
"You know that I am the acting President of the Smith Group and I am in charge of everything. If you make the situation of the Smith Group worse, I will force you out."
"You, don't you dare..."
“Of course I do!” Lily looks at her blankly. "Miss Chloe, if you have any sense, you would know what to do and what not to do."
"If the Smith Group is really in trouble, you are the first one to fall into the abyss!"
