My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily) novel Chapter 157

Lily stayed at the hospital in the following days. Melanie and Stefan also didn't come and disturb them either.

Due to her being absent from school for a few days, rumors about her grew rampant. Some people said that she was related to the Maynards' downfall, while others claimed that the Maynards killed her during her confrontation with them. Basically, there were all sorts of versions regarding her fate.

Loid was finally discharged from the hospital after 10 days. His poison had been completely resolved as well. On the day he was discharged, Stefan and Melanie took them to the hotel, intending to welcome them back. Melanie had also sent out invitations for a banquet scheduled that coming Saturday. Evidently, Lily was going to be the star of the banquet.

Initially, Melanie didn't intend to invite the Martinez family. She loathed them and couldn't even stand sparing them a glance. Still, she had to invite them to this banquet. She had to show them how brilliant Lily was.

…

At the Martinez residence, Shannon was glowering at the invitation. Her pretty face grew contorted with rage. She couldn't believe that the Lauriers actually intended to host a banquet for Lily.

How could they? That slut! How could she?

They'd ruined her life, yet they had the audacity to host a banquet. Growing resolute, she decided that she wouldn't let them have their way.

…

It was still bright out when Lily and Loid exited the hospital. Taking her hand naturally, Loid turned to her and asked warmly, "Shall I take you around?"

He remembered that he hadn't shown her around Lagersfield City despite her having spent a considerable amount of time here. They had been so busy.
