A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 145

Everyone in the room looks at each other, but no one means to take the wine. “If your hands are weak, I can ask someone to feed you.” says Louis.

With a wave, a dozen waiters file in and line up behind Louis.

Seeing that if they don't finish drinking these wines, they might not be able to get out of this private room today. Mr. Field curses Ellison in his heart and whispers to everyone, “Drink it now. Do you want to live here?”

With Mr. Field taking the lead, others open the bottles, and scramble for the wine. The private room is as noisy as Lily has just entered.

Ellison also forces himself to drink.

After Louis comes here, Lily stands beside him, not speaking at all. Even now, she just calmly stares at those people drinking.

With Louis on her side, she's out of her mind if she speaks up for these people!

“What's the matter?”

“What?” Lily recollects her mind.

Seeing Louis staring at her face, she touches it and finds a patch of blood. The wound is cracked open by Ellison's slap, and even the thin film could not stop the blood from coming out.

“I just got slapped by Ellison — oh!” In the middle of the conversation, Lily feels sick and she stumbles to the bathroom, covering her mouth.

Just lies on the toilet, then puke.

She feels much better after she vomits.

Louis wheels the wheelchair in and brings her some tissues. “What's wrong with your stomach?”

“No, it's all right.” Lily didn't expect him to come in. She couldn't bear to smell the sour smell. Lily says embarrassedly, “Mr. Louis, please go out. It is dirty here.”

“It doesn't matter.” Louis reaches past Lily and presses the toilet flush button. “Let me clear your face. It's bleeding.”

Lily feels embarrassed.

She's really embarrassed!

Lily wants to refuse him, but Louis has asked someone to send makeup remover, presses it on the cotton pad, and carefully wipes the foundation on her face. Lily feels uncomfortable all over.

“Your face is hurt. Why do you still wear makeup?”

“I had an appointment with Heller today, and I am afraid he would feel uncomfortable when he sees my face like that.” She tries to avoid contact with him and steps back. “Mr. Justin gave me a film, saying that I could put on makeup if I wear it.”

Louis looks gloomy, and then he adds, “You didn’t meet Heller?”

“No. It's raining hard today, so I took the bus to the hotel.” Lily gets angry when she mentions this. She complains a little bit more. “I was afraid I would be late, so I called Heller to explain the situation.”

“Heller said he would wait for me, but when I arrived on time on my borrowed mountain bike, the waiter told me that Heller has left. I was so angry that I had to come here to find Mr. Field.”

“Why not tell me?”

Lily purses her lips. “These are my jobs. And Heller has a lot of influence here. I think if he buys shares of the Smith Group, it would be easier for us to find other bosses to buy our shares.”

Louis pauses at removing her makeup.

Lily looks at him in a puzzled way and quickly asks, “Mr. Louis, did I say something wrong?”

“No.” says Louis. After removing her makeup, he dips a cotton pad with water and gently wipes on her face. “If he despises the shares, just change another one.”
