Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth novel Chapter 237

Chapter 237 

In an instant, Seth’s anger startled Lily. 

She hesitated and swallowed back her words. 

The waiter promptly apologized and offered to bring a new set of dishes, “I’m so sorry. We’ll serve the dishes again immediately. You were having the 13–dollar set meal, right?” 

“You…” Seth’s arrogance deflated, and he felt somewhat embarrassed. 

Lily looked at Seth, puzzled. 

The waiter asked somewhat deliberately, “This is the 13–dollar set meal, right?” 

“Yes.” Seth nodded. 

The waiter glanced at him, then looked at the ring on Lily’s finger with a pointed look. 

Apparently, the waiter didn’t believe that a man eating such a cheap set meal could afford a Harry Winston ring. 

Lily touched the ring and asked, “Didn’t you say that this place is very expensive? Why did you order the 13–dollar set meal?” 

Seth immediately explained, “I don’t understand what’s expensive or not. I just thought that 13 is a rather lucky number.” 

Lily pursed her lips without saying anything, then used a tissue to wipe the stains on her skirt. 

“I’m going to the restroom.” 

“Lily, what did you want to say just now?” Seth seemed a little anxious. 

“My hands are a little sticky. I want to wash them,” she added. 

“Go ahead. Take my handkerchief with you.” 

With that, Seth took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Lily. The handkerchief belonged to yet another luxury brand. 

Aurelia glanced at Leslie’s expression and instantly knew that it was another fake. 

Was there something seriously wrong with Seth? Why would he get a fake designer handkerchief as well? Was it necessary? 

But Lily’s reaction told her that it was indeed necessary. 

There were tea stains on Lily’s skirt, and they were difficult to clean. 

Seth was willing to give Lily his expensive handkerchief to wipe it, which conveyed that she was the most important person to him. 

Lily smiled as she fell into his trap. She blushed and took the handkerchief with her to the restroom. 

Seeing this, Aurelia felt uneasy, especially when she saw Seth’s triumphant smile. 

That girl clearly had a similar background to hers. She came from a single–parent family and had a house to her name. 

Although the house on Maple Road was indeed in the suburbs, a small two- bedroom property there would still cost over a million dollars. 

This girl seemed to have grown up under the care of her family and was utterly unaware of the sinister nature of people’s hearts.- 

Even if she came from a single–parent household, her living standard didn’t seem too bad. 

That house was likely worth more than one million dollars. 

Seth was cheating her out of a house worth more than one million dollars with an unwanted flower, a fake ring, and a set meal costing just 13 dollars.
