A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 401

Louis closes the door with a poker face.

Returning to the bedroom, he sees that the bed is in a mess and that the woman is sleeping soundly with the blanket in her hand. His heart is pounding. Then, he walks towards her, carrying her to the bathroom to bathe her.

After soaking in the bathtub for a while, the woman opens her eyes and looks at him.

"Louis." She mumbles as she comes over to hug him and kiss his throat. Her head rubs against his chest, softening his heart.

He pushes her away and says with coldness, "You can do it by yourself!"

"No, I'd like you to help me." Lily gets closer and shows off as a child, "I played snooker with someone in a billiard room and got full marks."

She raises her head, looking at him with hazy eyes and an adorable face, "Aren't you going to praise me?"

Louis says with an expressionless face, "Give me your hands."

"Alright." she looks injured, letting go of him and stretching out her hands. Her arms are white and thin as if they could be broken with just a little strength.

Louis looks even graver. He thinks to himself, 'How has John been treating her? Why is she still so thin?'

He helps her clean her body while she's sitting there and keeps quiet.

Louis thinks that she has become a quiet girl now, so he looks up. It turns out that she has fallen asleep with her head hanging down, which looks innocent to him.

The man is angry and helpless. After the bath, he wraps a towel around her body and carries her out. Right after putting her on the bed, he hears a ringtone.

It's from Lily's handbag.

He opens the handbag and takes out her vibrating mobile phone. The caller ID says "John", which brings him to his senses. His face falls.

'I come all the way here to find trouble for myself!'

Louis puts on his suit coat. Before leaving, he glances at the woman who is still asleep. His eyes darken as he takes out a wad of money from his wallet and places it on the bedside table.

...

When Lily wakes up, it is the next morning.

She sits in bed for a while and remembers what happened last night.

The blanket beside her is cold, and she doesn't know how long the man has been gone.

"Damn it. Macit hasn't signed the document yet!" Recalling the important thing, Lily gets up right away to look for her clothes, only to find that her dress has been ruined.

Then, she sees a brand-new ink-blue dress and a bra on the chair beside her.

'It's nice of him to prepare new clothes for me.'

Lily smiles. She puts on her clothes and picks up the phone on the bedside table. Then, she sees the money.

It is 888.

The number reminds Lily of the night when they first met at Z&J Hotel.

When she woke up in the morning, she also put down 888 before leaving.

There is a note under the money. She picks it up and reads the beautiful handwriting: Ms. Lily, you've worked hard last night. This is your reward.

Lily's smile dies.

'You're thirty years old. Is it necessary to bear a grudge?'

However, she has no time for the man since she has more important things to do. While packing up her stuff and leaving, she calls John.

"Lily?"

"Sorry, I think I messed it up." Lily apologizes, "I was watching Macit last night. Then, I was too sleepy, so I found a room to get some rest. I didn't expect to sleep overnight or miss your call. I'm going to find you now. And I'll talk to your father."

"I'm glad that you're okay." John is relieved, "Where are you?"
