CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 75

Chapter 75 Lilian Protected Her

Lilian held Courtney's hand and shook her head, wanting to tell Courtney not to turn herself in.

Courtney seemed to understand what she meant and laughed angrily. "I finally managed to come out. If I miss this chance, it will be difficult for me to come here again."

Lilian held onto her tightly, not letting her go.

Courtney looked at her stubborn face, opened her mouth, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

It had stopped raining by now, with the clouds hiding the sun and the sunlight occasionally peeking through.

After a while, Courtney finally stopped smiling and looked deeply at Lilian. "Lilian, if it weren't for those people's death, I would have been grateful to Francis. He made me see through a lot of people."

"But..." She smiled. "You didn't make me regret it, so what I did was worth it."

Lilian still didn't let go of Courtney, though there was a vast difference in strength between them. Courtney could easily push her away with a flick of her finger.

But Courtney didn't do that.

"Let me go."

Lilian shook her head.

Courtney was amused by her again. Just then, a car zoomed by, and a soda can flew out of the window, hitting Courtney's forehead with a loud thud.

It didn't hurt, but the sound was loud.

This hostile and humiliating blow instantly quieted the atmosphere.

Lilian turned to look at the car which had already gone far away. It was a taxi.

After a long time, Courtney turned back, and casually said to Lilian, "See? This is my current situation. I'm like a rat crossing the street, and everyone wants to beat me."

Lilian let go of her and gestured with her hand, "It's not your fault."

"I've tried to convince myself the same way, but you may not understand that feeling. It's different from killing fish or chickens."
