After Daniel left for a long time, Justin is the first to laugh in the silent private room. "After all these years of being together, this is the second time that I have seen Daniel didn’t behave himself. It was so obvious this time."
"Where is the first time?" Louis asks.
"In the hospital." Justin replies leisurely, "When Stella came to see you in the hospital, she bumped into Daniel, who was hiding his feelings well, but Stella was messed up, so I figured they had a story."
"Is this the thing that you didn't tell me in the hospital?" Leigh gets the point. "Shit, can't you just tell me? I was uncomfortable because of it for days!"
Justin is cold. "You're stupid. But this time you are clever to act a play with us."
“What play?” Leigh is a little confused.
Justin touches his forehead. "I overestimated your IQ."
"Oh, you mean Stella’s background?" Leigh didn’t realize it until he thinks for a while, "I thought you were interested in Stella. Who knows you talked about it on purpose?"
He then complains, "Don’t you feel tired to complicated the things?"
“I told you, you're stupid!” Justin snaps, "Ask Louis if he agrees with me."
Leigh turns to look at Louis.
Louis ignores him and says, "I didn't know Daniel used to have a story with Stella. If I knew, I wouldn't be working with Stella."
"No, Louis, it works well." Justin chuckles, "As you can see, Daniel always keeps a distance with women. He probably tripped over Stella."
"With that tattoo on his finger, I'm sure he's still in love with Stella, so let's take this as an opportunity to see how long he can bear it."
Louis ponders. Finally, with a sigh, he agrees to Justin's plan.
"You always say I'm playing with women, but I think you're better than that!" Leigh says disdainfully, "Especially Louis, you planned a car accident to deceive Miss Lily and asks her to work for you."
Louis's face sinks, and the next second the cup in his hand splashes, leaving some of the tea in his lap, shocking Justin and Leigh.
Leigh stutterers, "Shit! Are my... my custom-made cups so crisp?"
"You don't have to contact Smollett. Justin will help me." says Louis, "You go to Yanking and help me with something else."
"Louis, I was wrong..."
Louis glances at him, his voice cold. "Shut up and leave tonight on the plane."
Leigh is in tears.
Why the hell is that so unfair? Why did Justin go against Louis at the hospital and Louis didn't even retort back? And today he was driven out to do something hard?"
He knows now that he is a poor guy that no one would love!
Although something unpleasant happened at the club that day, with Louis backing up her and scolding Ellison and others, Lily doesn't feel comfortable about it.
Mr. Field also sends an email to apologize to her and makes an appointment with his father for her.
Lily has Meghan drawn up a contract and is about to go on an appointment when Justin calls to see her. After the meeting, Lily finds out that Justin is not the only one to meet her, Smollett of Dragon Fly Company is also with him.
After taking to Justin, Lily finds out that it is Louis's intention to ask her to have cooperation with Smollett, asking her to sell the original shares she bought from Heller Hodge to Smollett.
Smollett is young and promising. In terms of commercial skills, Smollett and Louis are close to call, but he is not as easy to get along with as Louis, and the profit he needs for doing things for others is very high.
When she has some understanding with Smollett, Lily goes to the bathroom on the way to sign the contract and calls Louis.
