Chapter 495 Lily’s Grand Plan
This was clearly an accident—Lily didn’t fall toward him on purpose. Any regular gentleman would definitely reach out to catch me in his arms, right? Lily had desired to be physically close to Toby even before they attended the social event, and she had done some secret preparations in order to achieve this.
However, she had been too careless when they first arrived at the venue, and she had accidentally infuriated him. That’s why I wasn’t able to have any intimate contact with him throughout the night.
Well, I guess God’s on my side this time! God just gave me the perfect opportunity to get close to Toby. Does that mean that God supports our relationship? Are we a match made in heaven?
Lily could finally proceed with the initial preparations that she had made for the night. At that thought, Lily erased all the excitement and joy from her expression and returned to the fearful and panicked look she had on earlier. She didn’t want Toby to realize anything odd about her expression, or else all her efforts would go down the drain.
“Save me, President Fuller!” Lily shouted at Toby with a slight tremble in her voice to seem as if she was extremely scared. However, Toby didn’t hear the slightest hint of fear in her tone—it sounded more to him like she was eager and impatient for him to save her. She’s excited to have me catch her in my arms. Annoyance flickered in Toby’s gaze as he parted his legs to step aside.
When Lily saw what Toby was doing, she widened her eyes and stared at him with disbelief. She couldn’t believe that he was such a heartless man. He didn’t bother to protect her, and he didn’t seem to show any desire to save the damsel in distress at all. Is… Is he really a man? Despite this, Lily wasn’t prepared to give up on Toby yet. She had to cling to him and fall on top of him. Otherwise, all that would greet her was the cold, hard floor in front of her.
If she were to fall flat on her front, the silicone implants in her nose and the silica gel in her breasts would be crushed. Just imagining that scenario made Lily’s face turn pale. The moment Toby tried to avoid her, she speedily grabbed onto his right arm before she threw all of her weight into his arms.
Ka-chick! At that very moment, a man who looked like a paparazzi pressed the shutter to snap a picture from his spot behind the bushes. He managed to capture the scene of Lily falling into Toby’s arms. The man took a look at the picture he snapped before he grinned to reveal his yellow teeth. His small eyes turned into straight lines as he chuckled and kept his camera away. With his body hunched, he sneaked away from the site.
When Lily felt her phone vibrating, she glanced at the bushes where the man had been located. Then, before Toby could lose his temper and shove her away, she immediately let go of him and stumbled two steps back before steadying herself. Her expression was one of utter shock, and tears welled up in her eyes as she quickly bowed to Toby. “I’m sorry, President Fuller. I didn’t do that on purpose. I’m so sorry…”
Toby didn’t respond to her and simply narrowed his eyes to give her a hostile glare. She could feel his stare burning into the top of her head, and a chill ran down her spine as her chest tightened. He’s… not going to hit me, is he? Lily immediately straightened her back before she took another two steps back.
“President Fuller…” she muttered as she gazed at him cautiously.
“You can go home and tell Vincent that we don’t have to proceed with the partnership. He can come to Fuller Group tomorrow to break the legal contract.” Toby took a disdainful glance at his wrinkled sleeves as he spoke in an emotionless voice. If his left arm wasn’t in a sling, he would have taken his jacket off and thrown it away. How disgusting, he thought. I tried to avoid her, yet she managed to grab onto me. It’s obvious that she had it all planned out. I know that I can’t do much to a woman, but at least I don’t have to be kind toward Vincent anymore.
Lily’s face was drained of color once she heard Toby say that he wanted to terminate the contract. She knew that it would be completely useless for her to continue pleading with him. If he had already made plans to break their legal contract, then it was clear that Lily had no chance of changing his mind. She had messed things up once more. If she had tried to beg him earlier, she might have been able to change his mind.
