A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 159

“Stop it.” Coffey interrupts her, “You are thinking too much into it.”

“Who was that woman who answered the call?”

When he sees that Lily is going to press him for an answer, Coffey frowns, and asks, “Not a woman, it’s my friend. His voice is soft, and therefore sounds like a woman.”

Lily steps on the brakes to stop the car, and looks at him in surprise, “You… you are gay?”

Coffey’s face turns black immediately, “NO!”

Lily thinks that he is covering up and pretends to be calm, “It’s alright, society is so advanced now. But don’t tell mom first; you should spend some time to understand each other.”

“…”

It is obviously awkward for the rest of the trip.

Lily knows that homosexuals would feel inferior and worry about being ostracized by society. So she continued to counsel Coffey.

“It’s really alright, I understand, as long as you are happy, it’s okay.”

“See, now a lot of countries allow gay marriages, society will be very accepting of you all, so will me.”

“You don’t have to worry about kids, it’s pretty good.”

“…”

Coffey looks out of the window expressionlessly.

When they arrive at Daisy’s house, it is time for lunch. Daisy has prepared a lot of dishes. She keeps mentioning that Joey only cares about earning money and hasn’t come back for a visit after coming back from overseas.

Daisy serves Coffey some dishes and asks warmly, “Coffey, how is it going in school?”

Lily raises her eyebrow and quickly says, “Mom, don’t you understand Coffey? Coffey has never let you worry about his studies.”

“That’s good.” Daisy nods and hesitates, “When I was working at the library, I noticed that a lot of youngsters are already in a relationship. If you meet a girl who you like, I won’t object it as long as it doesn’t affect your studies.”

“Ahem!” Lily is drinking some soup and is choked.

Daisy quickly pours some water for her, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine, I’m fine.” Lily takes over the glass and drinks a big mouthful of it. At the same time, she looks at Daisy, and thinks, ‘Your son has a ‘boyfriend’, but not a girlfriend.’

“Mom, don’t worry about this, he is an adult now and has his own thoughts.” Lily said and changes the subject, “I bought an apartment and once it is furnished you can move in.”

“I’m doing fine here, why did you spend money unnecessarily to buy an apartment?”

Lily laughs and says, “You’ve been living here for so long and it’s damp and isn’t good for your health. You shouldn’t continue living here.”

“Sis, sell away your apartment.” That day, after he left the sales office, Coffey kept accompanying Chloe for her film shoots. He was so busy that he forgot to tell Lily about the apartment, “I also bought one.”

Lily is stunned and asks him, “What did you buy?”

“The one that we inspected the last time.”

“That apartment which costs nearly ten million?” Lily takes a deep breath when thinking of it, “I was just thinking that the apartment was sold in the time I went to the bathroom. So you were the one who bought it. Where did you get the money?”

Coffey says, “I have some money enough for the down payment, thereafter the monthly payment is several tens of thousands.”

“You should return your apartment. I’ll find a way for you.” Since it is a property developer under the Smith Company, if she is to tell Louis, he should be able to return the apartment.

“Why return it? Sis, you also like it, don’t you?” Coffey doesn’t want to return it, “I can afford it. It’s just several tens of thousands a month.”

It’s just that he should pay it to Chloe.

Lily doesn’t want his burden to be so heavy yet Coffey thinks that his choice is the best. Daisy is worried about spending too much but both Lily and Coffey didn’t take her words into consideration.

After lunch, Lily pulls Coffey aside and whispers, “Tell me, this house… did you take money from your… partner to buy the place?”

The school is so stingy and can’t wait to charge more fees. How could it be possible that they would give money to students?

Coffey doesn’t want to explain to her regarding his sexual orientation, even if he says it a hundred times, Lily will not believe, “I took a loan to buy this house, you and mom can relax.”
