A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 499

After a while, Justin then answers in a leisure way, "When you get a girlfriend, you will know it. However, judging from your personality, you may be single even if I get married."

"..."

When the injection is finished, Lily packs her things to leave.

She says to John, "Your leg hasn't fully recovered. How about staying longer in the hospital? The company's new products are about to hit the market. I've got a full plate."

Lily has been staying in the hospital in the past days. During this period, the work in the company is left to her assistant.

Though Lily knows that her assistant can take good care of the work, yet she is still worried.

"When Victor comes back, ask him to send you over." John knows that Lily won't be swayed by his persuasion, so he just exhorts in a gentle tone, "Don't let the work take all you time. Spare more time to rest."

Lily smiles, "Yes, I know."

Previously, when she was in work, she would spare some time to have good rests, but not for recent days. That's because so many things occur and keep grating on her nerve. Therefore, she can't have a good rest.

Lily frowns slightly when her belly receives several kicks.

When John sees that, an expression of nervousness flashes through his eyebrows, "What's wrong, Lily? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

"I'm fine." Lily points to her belly and says with resignation, "After a few days of needling, babies become lively again. They won't stop kicking in my belly."

John's anxiety disappears.

He raises and places his hand on Lily's belly, sensing the babies underneath.

Babies are nurtured here.

John asks Lily, "Can I have a look? You've been pregnant for so long, but I never touch them."

Lily is surprised at that moment. Her heart is softened on seeing John's craving gazes.

"Sure." She lifts the hem of her clothes.

Just now, when the doctor came to operate the injection, John looked away in purpose so that Lily wouldn't be embarrassed.

This is the first time John has seen Lily's pregnant belly.

Without the cover of clothes, it looks quite big.

An inexpressible bitter feeling surges in him. John can't help but raise his hand to caress Lily's snow-white stomach.

There are shallow pregnancy marks on her belly. When John sees those, he feels bad for her.

What a torture it is for a woman to labor and give birth to a child, not to mention the physical suffering! How laborious and painful the whole process it is!

Suddenly, something is flapping under John's fingers, which startles John.

He sees Lily's bulging belly's movement. It seems that the babies are pushing and shoving in all directions they can find in Lily's belly and they are enjoying themselves to the full.

John feels that is incredible, so he asks, "Are they playing?"

"Yes." Lily gives a grin, "Do you feel that they seem to be fighting, and the fight is quiet fierce?"

John nods and still fixes his eyes on Lily's belly.

It is unimaginable that three babies can subsist underneath a thin belly, isn't it?

He grabs Lily's hand and prints a kiss on it. His gaze is firm and gentle, "Lily, it's been hard on you. I will definitely give you the best and give you sound protection."

Lily, the apple in his eyes, can't cry for any other men. He must keep her around himself so that he can protect her.

Lily feels sick at heart and then gives an affirmative answer with a smile.

Suddenly, Victor pushes open the door and enters inside.

At this moment, Victor is something disconcerted, so he coughs and asks, "Mr. John, should I come back later?"

"It's fine. You are right on time." Lily hurriedly pulls down her clothes, as her cheeks are flushed, "Take me back."

"Ms. Lily, wait for me outside. I have something to tell Mr. John."

"OK."

After Lily leaves the ward, Victor runs to John and whispered, "Mr. John, Miss Jessie was lost."

"Didn't you arrange her accommodation?" John frowns, "How could she disappear?"

"That's right, you just settled a contract worthy of 500 million and now you are poor-mouthing."

"Have some decency."

In face of his companions' teasing, Chace smiles and nods, "Yes, yes, thanks to your help, I can land this contract. When you're back in the country, I'll treat you to whatever you want!"

"Alright, we sure will keep that in mind!"

Chace waves his hand and says, "Come on, let's go. I have to go back to sleep. I have a flight to catch tomorrow morning!"

Finally, with all his promise and kind words, his companions leave.

Chace stands smoking in a corner and waits for the driver to pick him up. All of sudden, there comes a woman's scream, which frightens him.

He turns around and sees a few foreign men dragging a black-haired woman.

"Let go of me! Help!"

The woman is delicate in figure. In front of the huge bulk of these men, she appears to be all the more weak and helpless. She struggles with all her might to prevent those men from taking her away. Now, she has screamed herself hoarse.

This block of Country Y isn't safe and this kind of thing is quiet common.

Chace doesn't want to cause any trouble for himself, so he looks away after a glance and continues his smoking.

"Don't touch me!"

"Help!"

"..."

Chace hears the woman's scream, but then there ensues silence. That woman seems to pass out by the beatings.

He turns around to check. Surely, that woman passes out and there is faint blood smear around her mouth.

A blonde man picks her up and says something to his companion with a smile.

Perhaps it is because that woman is Chace's fellow countrywoman with the same black hair and brown eyes. Chace curses in his heart. Then, he throws away his cigarette and strides towards them.
