A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 572

John stepped back two steps, and his gentle eyes became sharp at this time. He stared at Sofia and said, "Ms. Sofia, no matter how much gossip you’ve heard, remember where you are and who you work for."

"Do not talk nonsense." He adjusted his glasses and said tonelessly, but Sofia felt under pressure. He added, "Do not underestimate the public relations department of the Smith Group. I’m not an easy talker, either."

Sofia froze slightly and immediately chuckled, "Maybe it’s just rumor. It’s glad to see you today, so I’ve just shot my mouth off."

"Sometimes your mouth will only bring you trouble." John glanced at her. "Don’t you think so?"

Sofia was embarrassed and paused for a moment. When she jolted herself, John had already passed her by.

She turned to look at his back and clenched her hands gradually.

John loved Lily so much, so he definitely got angry just now. But Sofia wondered why he could calm down. Maybe he was pretending to be indifferent.

He was so good at pretending.

Sofia quickly looked away for fear that he would recognize her thoughts. She pushed the door and went into the coffee shop. She kept wondering whether John really did not care bout the news.

Burnell will come to Yorkshire soon. To make the plan go smoothly, she must cut the connection between Louis and John. It was better to make them turn against each other.

If John did not care about her remarks, she had to think of other ways.

Lily stayed in the hospital for more than two weeks and had enough time to recuperate. Her gunshot wound had already healed.

There were no scars on her skin after she used the ointment that Justin brought from the laboratory.

Lily found that since Yuna came to the hospital to meet John that day and asked John to see her off, John had never come to the hospital again.

She was afraid that when John sent Yuna out, Yuna said something bad to him. She sent Facebook to him to beat about the bush. John just said that he was busy with work and did not have time to come.

Lily also paid attention to the company and the business circle. After knowing that they were busy preparing new products, she got relieved.

During this period of hospitalization, she ate a lot and gained some weight. The biggest change was her stomach.

She could hide the bump under the baggy clothes. After two weeks' rest, her belly grew bigger every day and was plump like a watermelon. She was afraid that her belly would burst.

Lily got up early in the morning to pack up. Justin said she could be discharged from the hospital today.

She had taken just some clothes and skincare products.

Lily felt tired after bending over for a while to pack up. Her bump was too heavy as if it would drop on the ground.

With her hand around her waist, she just stood up to call Chloe. At this time, she saw a hand stretching from the side and carrying away the bag in front of her.

"Is that all?" The man said in a low voice, and the other hand was on her waist, "I'll help you."

Lily turned around and saw the man who had never come here since she was hospitalized. He was charming in the stylish suit. However, he looked exhausted with black-ringed eyes.

"You can’t sleep well recently, right?" She was too worried about him and even did not realize that they were too close when he held her waist and supported her to go out of the ward. She asked him, "What are you doing?"

Louis smiled and said casually, "It's time for the semi-annual report. I’m busy with that. What’s wrong?"

The man looked at her with deep eyes. "You are blaming me for I'm so busy at work and did not come to see you?"

"I don't care about that!" Lily realized that she was excessively worried about her and sneered, "I thought Mr. Nathan has made trouble for you, and I was afraid that he would target me next."

"No." Louis said tonelessly with bleak eyes, "He is too busy to embarrass our group."

Lily's pupil suddenly tightened and stopped her movements. "Lou...Louis ..."
