Lily lied on the bed and turned over.
DID he like it? Didn't he like it? On second thought, she found that all James' clothes were either rare or luxury. If he really didn't like the tie she had chosen for him, it was natural.
In the dark night, she sighed softly and slowly fell asleep with an uneasy and heavy heart, seeming extremely uneasy in her sleep.
Another night passed.
"Miss Lillias, Mr. James is waiting for you downstairs. Get up quickly." Lara noticed that James had already got up but didn't go to work, so she guessed that Mr. James was waiting for Lily. As the breakfast was almost ready, she went to Lily's room to wake her up.
Lily opened her eyes and answered Lara. Sitting on the bed, she closed her eyes and seemed to be going to sleep. Her brain gradually cleared up, and she tried to recall what Lara had just said, Mr. James? Which one? Who is he waiting for? Wait?
wait! Lily's eyes widened and she looked like a different person. It was just James! Was he waiting for her?! Her sleepiness was completely gone. She got up, wore her shoes, changed her clothes and cleaned her face and teeth. After confirming that there was no mistake, Lily opened the door and went out.
Seeing James sitting in the living room, Lily wanted to tell him good morning, but when she looked at him again, she was stunned, her eyes wide open. She pointed at him as if she had discovered that James was some kind of monster. "You... I... I... What?! Right! This one! "
"What's wrong?" he asked, hiding his smile
Thinking of nothing, Lily decided to leave the mess behind. She strode towards James and pointed at his neck! You like it, right? "
"Yes, I like it very much." James said what he had wanted to say.
The tie on his neck was the one that Lily gave him as a gift. The tie James was wearing now was much cheaper than the other ties he had used. It didn't even match his suit. Luckily, the color of the tie was pretty good. In the final analysis, it was because of his noble temperament.
Lily blushed and tried not to scream. "I'm glad you like it. I just thought it was suitable for you. Although I used the card you gave me, I promise I'll do it only once."
She wanted to say that she would work hard on her own in the future and rely on her own efforts to repay James. And she would also make money to buy gifts for him in the future.
It suddenly occurred to James that he had given her a bank card before. It was a pocket money for her. He mistook Lily's words for the only gift. His face darkened immediately and said coldly, "I told you, I like it."
Seeing James' face suddenly changed, Lily was at a loss for a moment. Why did he have to pull a long face when he liked it? He was gentle just now, but now he suddenly became so cold. She was a little embarrassed. She didn't know what to say.
Luckily, Lara had invited them to have breakfast. Otherwise, they wouldn't have ended up in such an awkward situation.
finished. That was the only word left in Lily's mind.
As usual, James didn't utter a word when he ate breakfast. She couldn't help but feel that he was angry. The low pressure around him had affected everything around him.
In such an embarrassing atmosphere, Lily finished her breakfast in a timid manner. After that, she watched as James got into his car. Neither of them spoke again.
After entering the room, Sean casually sat on the sofa. Following James' gaze, he saw the tie and was about to ridicule James' taste. He wondered if he was pretending to be poor. Before he opened his mouth, he thought of the girl he had met before.
"What? Can't you put down your 'daughter's' present?" Sean knew Lily, he had met her before. Zelda had told him about several trifles. As far as he knew, James almost treated her as his daughter, even if she wasn't his daughter.
Seeing that James didn't respond, Sean stood up, walked to the lounge and took out a bottle of wine. He poured two glasses of wine and handed one to James. "Your 'daughter' is so great. I heard from Zelda that you've arranged everything for her. When she was sick the other day, you picked her up yourself. James, we have passed the appraisal. "
Too much, too much caring, you pay too much attention to her."
As James took the glass, his eyes darkened. "I only gave me a few compared with what she had given me."
"Is it not enough? Who do you think you are! You are not a philanthropist! James, that's enough. She will only distract you because you have your ambition. " Sean insisted and his tone became serious.
"If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be who I am now."
"That's a coincidence! Any other passer-by will save you. Besides, the Ling Family is looking for you at every moment. "
James didn't say a word anymore. He always kept silent when they disagreed with each other.
