A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 148

Louis gives Leigh a cold look. "Lily is my subordinate. She's being bullied, so it's like I'm being punched in the face. Shouldn’t I back her up? What are you gossiping about?"

"Who in the Smith Group other than the board of directors isn't your subordinate?" Leigh grins, "I don't see anyone being bullied, and you've been there to help!"

Louis grabs a handful of popcorn and stuffs it in his mouth. "Shut up. Go get Smollett later, okay?"

Leigh, whose mouth is blocked, nods.

Justin shakes his head and says regrettably, "Heller has worked with Louis many times before, but this time he is confused about Louis's ideas. This is a chance in a hundred years, but he doesn’t accept it."

"It is because our plan is perfect. There is no flaw." Leigh swallows the popcorn reluctantly. "If I haven't been a part of this, I'd have thought the Smith Group is going to fall through."

Justin glances at Louis and smiles gently. "Now I can understand the saying in the book, ‘A man would bristle for his lover’.'"

"Me, too." Leigh grins, "I really thought Louis isn't interested in women, thinking that if he still couldn’t fine his true love, I'd do an operation. However, it turns out that he hasn’t met the one he is fond of.”

"You can have an operation now. I need a woman."

"Are you serious, Justin?"

Justin keeps his smile on his face. "Or I could do it for you, you know I am a doctor."

"I can't believe you've been coveted me." Leigh pretends to look shock and rubs at Daniel. "I won't love you. Forget about it!"

Everything can be talked about in the brothers' party, which is warm and lively. Both Daniel and Louis have relaxed smiles on their faces.

After playing for a while, Leigh sighs, "Yorkshire is not big, but why I can’t meet the girl saw in the hospital that day. I have been hanging around the hospital gate every day."

Louis sips the tea. "Love at first sight again?" he asks.

"The ninety-eighth time." Justin adds, showing disgust to Leigh. "I don't think you should waste that girl’s time. She looks young and probably underage."

"What does it matter? I can wait for her!" Leigh sits up straight. "I am serious this time. When I bumped into her eyes, I have the idea of marrying her."

There is no sound in the room for a moment. Several pairs of eyes look at Leigh, with a look of "you're out of your mind".

"Shit, I am serious. What do you mean by that look?" Leigh grumbles.

Justin sneers, "That's what you said when you met someone you fell in love at first sight. If you’re serious, the times you get married would have broken the Guinness World Records."

"But it feels different this time." Leigh wants to explain, but he can't describe how does it feel like, so he nudges Louis, "Louis, you're getting married, right? You must know how it feels like better than I do."

Daniel, who keeps silent, suddenly grabs hard his glass.

He is so strong that countless cracks appear on the glass without anyone else noticing.

"Stella and I are just partners." Louis leans back lazily in his wheelchair and says with a smile, "If I marry her, the Smith family will be less wary of me and she can use my reputation to get shares from President Scott."

Justin's eyes glint. "I've been watching the news since I came back, and I know Miss Stella is very capable, but because of her identity, she has no real power in the Scott family."
