A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 373

He insists. Seeing this, Lily can only nod, "Alright, then we'll split the burden."

Only then does John smile.

Lily is pregnant, and that can probably explain why she gets sleepy after spending only less than two hours on the list.

By the time she wakes up again, it is already half past seven in the evening.

At this moment, John knocks on the door. He's here to give her some clothes.

"Thank you." Lily is surprised, because John is so careful to notice that she doesn't like it fancy when it comes to clothes.

When she unfolds the clothes, she finds some miscarriage-preventing medicine inside. She looks at John in astonishment and whispers, "This quick? Will Jonathan find out about it?"

John smiles slightly, "Victor's sister is pregnant, and she's also taking this medicine. He had asked his sister to buy it. I was worried that yours wasn't enough."

"Victor has a sister?"

"Yeah, why?"

Lily scratches her hair and mutters, "I thought he was an orphan just like the bodyguards on TV—lonely but brave, you know?"

John can't help but laugh, "Lily, you're so cute."

"Stop laughing. I'm just ignorant. I don't know him well." Lily glares at him and says unhappily, "I never thought that I would come here one day!"

She pouts with her red lips, a little annoyed. She's languid, but somehow charming.

John finds her extremely attractive.

He unconsciously moves closer to her and puts his warm palm on her cheek. More and more restless, he bends over to her and says, "Lily, marry me."

If Krislier Group is mine, I want it to be yours too.

Lily freezes for a moment and hurriedly pushes him away. She takes a few steps back as if frightened, saying, "We should now think of how to contact the politicians on the list and get them to recognize you."

Instead of answering him, she changes the topic.

John is slightly disappointed, but his eyes are still full of tenderness. He smiles and nods, "Right. I get it."

The two of them go downstairs to eat together.

In a few hours' time, Burnell is not so angry with Jonathan and John. What's more, unlike yesterday, he has stopped ignoring Lily. He calls them over for dinner.

Jonathan gives them a cold glance and continues to eat.

When Burnell is with John, he seems to flow with enthusiasm. As soon as John and Lily sit down, he starts to talk to John—only about life and not business.

After chatting for a while, Burnell suddenly asks John, "Colbert, didn't you say that you like Meghan and is engaged to her? Does she know about this?"

John lowers his head as he darkens his eyes. He says, "Only after we got engaged did we find that we were not right for each other. Then, I dated Lily, so I broke up with her. She agreed."

Burnell props up his chin and says, "Meghan is quite smart. There was nothing you could do if it did not work for you two."

"Dad, if you like her, you can always invite her back." John smiles and says, "She is working in a company under Jonathan, and is quite familiar with him. If she can be with Jonathan, it won't be a bad thing."

"Meghan is only my employee. She likes you, not me." Jonathan says with a cold expression, "I don't want you to be criticized because I'm your brother."

John keeps pushing him by saying, "It doesn't matter. I don't mind. After all, we're brothers. Also, I heard that Meghan liked you before, but you were too cold and had never given her an answer. I think Meghan would get engaged to me only because she wanted to anger you. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so indifferent to me."

"You forcibly broke up with Meghan after you saw Ms. Lily again. Don't do me dirty."
