A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 429

Lily's expression hardens and she's kind of an emotional wreck.

Lily understands what Louis means very well.

Louis doesn't deny that the media reviews of photos in the newspaper are not baseless. Louis indeed has something to do with Sofia.

It turns out that Lily thinks too well of things, but in fact, Louis has let it go.

Seeing Lily hanging down her head and looking dispirited, Louis feels a little heartbreaking but doesn't say anything. Louis only asks, "Have you had enough?"

"Yes."

Seeing that it's still raining heavily outside, Louis takes pity on Lily, "It's not going to stop raining tonight. It's hard to drive in heavy rain. You can sleep in the guest room. I'll take care of some business."

Lily says, "Thank you, Mr. Smith."

Hearing this, Louis looks solemn.

Just as Louis goes upstairs and enters the study room, his phone is ringing in his pocket. Louis takes out it and finds that it is Baron.

"Mr. Smith, didn't we agree to share the profits of that project equally?" As soon as Baron gets through, he says, "Why did you change it to a 70/30 split in the profits overnight?"

Louis says casually, "I invest the most money and my people are responsible for it. 70/30 split in the profits is the most reasonable.

"... Damn it!" Baron, who has always been refined and elegant, can't help but swear. Baron says after calming down, "I went to the clubhouse and bumped into Ms. Lily. I brought her to the private room just to put her through the mill. If you are angry, you should take revenge on Mr. Sawyer. But you set me up behind my back in the project. You're so black-hearted."

"Lily will only hear some dirty words when she is with a group of men." Louis sneers, "I think you're just letting her be bullied."

"You've broken up. You still didn't sell Ms. Lily oranges. Why are you putting on a show of "Revenge for Beauty"?"

"Even if I've broken up with Lily, Tom, Dick and Harry can't bully her." Louis says coldly, "I insist on 70/30 split in the profits of that project. Do it or pull back!"

Louis hangs up the phone, feeling irritated.

Louis doesn't understand why he still misses Lily even if he has broken up with her.

Seeing that Lily was bullied before, Louis subconsciously defended her. When Lily cried bitterly because she couldn't eat the tofu buns, Louis called the chef of the club to learn how to make buns.

Lily asked Louis about the newspaper, and he really wanted to explain it to her. But Louis thinks of the video and feels that there is no need to explain.

Lily has always cared about others but ignores how Louis feels. Lily tramples on Louis' feelings again and again.

Louis is a human and he has feelings.

Louis composes his irritation and turns on his computer to get back to work.

Louis has been too busy to fly abroad these days, only holding videoconferences with a few foreign subsidiaries. Videoconferencing is a hassle to a city like New York with a time difference of more than 10 hours.

When Louis turns off the computer, he hears the soft rain outside the window. It's one o'clock in the morning.

Louis returns to his bedroom to wash up and changes into his nightgown.

Thinking of Lily looking dejected at night, Louis turns the doorknob to open the door of the guest room.

After entering the room, Louis sees Lily sleeping soundly on the bed, her snow-white ragdoll lying on the quilt like a patron saint.

Ragdoll looks up, watches Louis approaching the bedside, and meows lazily.

Louis knows that the ragdoll seldom meows and is gentle. When the ragdoll is in a rage, it only uses its claws to scratch the German Shepherd Dog's face until the dog's face is covered in scratches and blood. Louis sits down by the bed.

Louis sees Lily sleeping peacefully, her black hair pressed down on the pillow, her chin a little fleshier than before.

Louis’ dry and hot palm brushes past Lily's cheeks. Louis touches Lily's chin and thinks to himself, "It seems that Lily lives quite well abroad. She's only been back a few days and she's putting on weight."

Lily suddenly frowns and mutters, "Don't kick me. Be good and sleep."

Louis automatically looks at the ragdoll.

The ragdoll obediently lies on the quilt, looking at Louis innocently with its blue eyes.

Louis looks at the ragdoll and thinks of the video of a cat sleeping on its owner's face and nearly choking him. So Louis grabs the ragdoll by the back of its neck with both hands and takes it out.

The ragdoll gently meows, its four claws flopping slightly.
