A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 136

"Everyone has his own choice. Some people want to live a peaceful life, while others want to make a big difference. Lily is the former." says Justin, “She thought it was she who caused the car accident, and she's always feeling guilty."

"So, she's throwing herself to protect the Smith Group for you when something bad happens to the Smith Group. Louis, have you ever wondered how she would feel if she knows that you are planning all this and that you are lying to her?"

Justin's sharp words cut right into Louis's heart.

The man's face is gloomy.

He doesn't know why when thinking of Lily knowing that all these things are planned by him, he would feel like his heart hurts like being pierced by someone, feeling suffocating. Lily would feel heartbroken.

This is the first time he has this thought after being in the business circle for so many years

And he doesn't like the feeling very much.

"All right, Justin." As the atmosphere becomes increasingly stiff, Leigh interjects, "Louis is just trying to play out Lily's potential, not to use her. Besides, Louis has a lot to offer Lily."

"It is wrong for Louis to include Lily in his plan, and you're defending Louis?" Justin glares at Leigh. "If she is your sister, would you say so?"

Leigh shrugs. "I am the only child in the family. Hey, Justin, you've only known Lily for a couple of days. You've been defending her so much. Have you fallen in love with her?”

"I just don't want her to take all the burden of the Smith Group."

"Gee! The more I listen to you, the more I think you have fallen in love with Lily."

"..."

Louis is uncomfortable with their conversation, and restlessness creeps on him.

Louis replies coldly, "I know what I am doing. Now that I'm awake, the burden won't be all on her, but I don’t need your help either."

"Louis, we have agreed to take the responsibility together." Leigh feels displeased and worried. "We all know what Richard's up to. We can’t just stand by."

"Don't you understand that there aren’t risks in what I do?" Louis smiles faintly and speaks with assurance.

"But..."

When Leigh is still worried, Justin gives him a nudge, cutting him off. "Come on, Louis know what should do. If you are really bored, just go play bowling."

Leigh pouts, "Bowling is not funny."

After being busy all night, Justin is also a little sleepy. He is too lazy to stay here, so he asks Leigh go back with him together.

"Then I'll take her to the escort bed." Leigh rolls up his sleeves and starts to do it. "Lily is a woman anyway. It doesn't feel comfortable sleeping like that."

Before his hand touches Lily's waist, he is grabbed by a large hand.

The iron-like strength makes Leigh gasp, "Come on, am I that weak? Louis, you've just woken up. How could you have so much strength?"

Louis shakes off his hand, his voice deep. "Go back with Justin."

"..."

Leigh shivers at the tone and takes away his hand.

Leigh seems to sense something, but seeing Louis lowering his eyes, and looking indifferent, he thinks might be he is thinking too much. After being pulled by Justin, he has to leave.

When he is out of the room, Leigh thinks or a moment and asks Justin, "Was Louis protecting Lily just now?"

Justin snorts, "You touched Lily just now."

"Shit! I just want to take her to the bed.” Leigh is upset and quickly responds, "Come on, Louis is really into Lily."

"My god. I didn’t think I would see Louis fall in love with women before I die."

Justin is speechless.

Lily has had a good night's sleep since the accident.
