A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 349

Lily says coyly, “Mom, I know you are the best and you love me the most.”

“Give me a break! I don’t care about you.” Daisy says, “I am just afraid because no one likes second marriages, everything including me will be gossiped about. That’s why I am meeting any of your requirements. I don’t have the energy to make one for Joey.”

“Mom, can you stop calling it my second marriage…”

“It’s true.”

Lily seems to be unable to compete with her mother. Later, she stops talking and helps her mother with chores for a while. After a long time, Louis sees her appear in front of the camera again.

Lily sees that the video is still being recorded and blushes, “Oh my God! I forgot to turn it off. Is my conversation with Mom all recorded in it?”

“No, oh no! I’ll have to edit that part so Louis can’t see it.” She mutters just as Daisy’s voice comes calling her to eat. She answers her and then the video stops.

Louis sits on the sofa and stares at the DSLR in his hand. He doesn’t speak for a long time.

The forty-minute video plays in his head again and again. Lily’s appearance and her words makes him feel warm, angry and distressed all at the same time.

If she loves him so much then why does she always stand on John’s side when something happens? Just because John is a weak person who has nothing?

Then what does he have?

Thinking about the phone call that day when she cried for John and decided to stay in country F and didn’t want Louis any longer. Louis hates her. His eyes gradually become cold and hard.

He turns off the DSLR and throws it on the coffee table, then he gets up to go upstairs.

Seeing him get up, the puppy also gets up quickly and follows him. Louis just glances at it once and then continues to walk.

Like this, Louis and the puppy go up to the second floor.

Louis takes his night gown and goes to take a shower. When he comes out, he finds the puppy lying in the carpet. He wants to drive it out, but after hesitating for a bit he just steps past it.

He is already going to give it away soon. He might as well just let it stay where it wants to and then clean the place when time comes.

He dries his hair with a towel. As he is about to go back to bed, he sees a light gray scarf on the bed. It was the scarf that Lily gave to him when they went to country R. He can’t help but freeze in his spot.

Didn’t he put it in the closet? How is it on the bed?

Louis stares at the scarf with complicated expressions. He picks it up, only to find that there is a dark blue Hermes silk scarf under it. It is Lily’s.

Louis stares at it quietly.

Then he turns his head to look at the puppy lying on the carpet. It looks back at him with innocent eyes and wagging its tail. The corner of Louis’s mouth twitches, “Are you challenging my temper?”

The puppy barks at him twice as if saying that it is not afraid.

Louis ignores it. He throws the scarfs on the night stand and begins to deal with his work. After an hour, he raises his head from his phone.

He looks at the time, it is almost midnight. The coming year will begin in ten minutes.

However, nothing will change in the coming year.

About to go to bed, he reaches over to turn on the lamp when his hand accidentally grazes against the blue silk scarf. He hesitates for a moment then finally holds the scarf in his hand.
