A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 172

Ellison screams in pain and lets go of Lily. He falls to the ground, twitching and bleeding.

Louis slides his wheelchair into the warehouse. Lily lies still on the ground with dull eyes. His heart aches. He picks her up and wraps her in a blanket. "You're safe now." Louis strokes her hair and comforts her mildly, "I won't let him off."

He does not look at anyone and carries Lily out.

"You! You're so stupid!" Antony is very angry. He turns around and angrily says to the servant, "Hurry up and find a doctor!"

Louis carries Lily to the bathroom, only to discover that her hands have been fractured. He gets so mad that he wishes he has shot Ellison in the heart.

"It might hurt. Hold it," says Louis.

After finding the fractured bones, Louis links up her wrists in one go.

"Ouch!" Lily finally recovers from terror. Her forehead is sweating from the pain. She blinks and finds that she is hugged by Louis. Her eyes turn red.

She has been in a daze.

"It doesn't hurt anymore. You'll be fine." Louis kisses her hands gently, although they are dirty. Lily is embarrassed and pulls out her hands.

Seeing that the bathtub is full, Louis says, "Take a bath first. I'll ask someone to buy clothes for you."

"Can you stay here?" Lily grabs his clothes. She is startled by what happened just now. "Please stay here. I..."

She doesn't want to be alone.

"Alright." Louis does not refuse. He turns his back to the bathtub and calls the servant.

Louis asks the servant to buy her clothes. And the size of the clothes is just right for her. She gets a bit shy.

She thinks, he must have scored a lucky hit.

After soaking in the bathtub, Lily gradually get relaxed. Looking at the light red mark on her chest, she feels sick.

Louis knows that she feels uncomfortable when he hears her retching noise. He clenches his fist.

He asks softly, "Is there any injury on your body?"

"No." Lily takes a deep breath and calms herself down, "President Smith, how did you find me?"

"I couldn't have done this without your brother." Louis says. "Your brother called you, and the servant answered the phone. The servant came to Lotus Pond but didn't see you, so he gave me the phone."

"Looks like I made it." Lily looks at the ring in her hand and says, "Fortunately, I didn't put it at home for its ugly look. It saved my life."

"What is it? Can I take a look?"

Lily stretches out to show him the ring, "My brother gave it to me before. I don't know what's inside. But he asked me to knock it if I'm in danger."

That ring is not different from other ordinary rings. It even looks like a defective ring.

Louis stares at the ring for a long time. He suddenly recalls the call and that familiar voice.

"What's your brother's name?"

"Coffey." After answering his question, Lily feels puzzled, "Why did you ask about my younger brother's name?"

Louis turns on his phone and hands it to her. "Is this him?"

The young man in the photo shown on the screen is Coffey. It seems like an ID photo and he looks very serious.

"Yes, he's my brother." Lily is shocked. She looks up at Louis and says, "President Smith, why do you have a picture of my brother? Are you..."

She gets a little nervous.
