Chapter 68
Loid glanced at him and said, “Then just keep your mouth shut.”
Shaun wasn’t the only one who was afraid to speak Even Loid didn’t dare to break the silence.
Loid was afraid that Lily would initiate a fight at the slightest provocation. After all, he had experienced her prowess in combat during their last encounter.
“Didn’t she mention she’d be treating your illness tonight? Shaun continued in a soft voice.
Load pursed his lips and glanced at Lily before responding. “There’s no need to rush,”
As soon as they finished speaking, Lily set the beer bottle on the table and gave Loid and Shaun an indifferent glance. “Do you have paper and a pen?”
Loid remained silent and looked at Daniel.
Daniel immediately understood what he meant. “I’ll go ask for a pen and paper from the waiter.”
Soon enough, Daniel came back with the items,
Lily grabbed the pen and scribbled a long list of content on the paper before handing it to Daniel. The paper was filled with names of various herbs, some completely unknown to
Daniel
Go get all of these from Herb Haven,” Lily said as she sipped her beer with a frown.
Lily thought to herself, “The beer tastes awful today. It has no flavorat
Daniel was taken aback. “Do we need to purchase all of this? Does Herb Haven even carry all these herbs?”
He knew about Herb Haven. It was a specialized herb shop that was quite well–known in Lagersfield However, the shop was small, occupying just over a hundred square feet How could they possibly store so many herbs in such a small area?
Lily’s list included over 30 different types of herbs, with more than ten being rare and valuable herbs. He doubted if he could get everything from Herb Haven,
Lily gave him a faint glance and remained silent.
With a shudder, Daniel quickly turned to leave. He didn’t want Lily to think he was a fool.
After Daniellett, Lily set down her cup and said, “Let’s go home.”
Loid and Shaun didn’t say anything. They simply paid the bill and escorted Lily home.
When they returned to Anmer Heights, Daniel had also acquired all the herbs. Lily Included 30 types of rare herbs in her list, but she only needed ten types in reality. She considered the remaining 20 types of herbs as Lold’s gift to her.
Lily never engaged in unprofitable deals. Loid had to pay a price.
Besides, he wasn’t exactly making a loss. It was considerate of her not to demand the ten billion dollars needed for the next order.
With the herbs in hand, Lily headed toward the kitchen.
Daniel reached to take the stack of herbs from her hands with a pleasing expression “Ms. Brooks, let me help you.”
Lily hesitated for a moment before brusquely shoving the herbs into his hands.
Daniel gingerly set the herbs down. While others might not realize, he was keenly aware of their high value. After all, he had spent a billion dollars just to acquire such a small quantity of herbs.
