She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment novel Chapter 408

Chapter 408: The Passionate Young Man

Lily went back to her room, changed, and went out in a hurry.

She had only just reached the car park and was about to open the car door when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a shadow in the distance. Startled, she exclaimed, “Ahh! It’s a ghost!”

Quentin: “…”

The corners of his lips spasmed. He walked into the open leisurely and said like the person afflicted with eighth-grader syndrome he was, “You’re calling me a ghost when I was obviously standing there like the live human I am? Are your eyes bad?”

Lily, who was bolder than a lot of girls, took a close look at Quentin, upon which her eyes immediately lit up. She asked, “… Who are you? Why did you become a thief when you’re so good-looking? Why aren’t you being a good person instead? This is the Smiths’ manor, you know!”

“… Who do you think you’re calling a thief?” Quentin retorted.

Lily’s eyes widened. The tall girl was not afraid of the man at all. “You, of course! If you are not a thief, then why are you hiding in the shadows so sneakily? I’ll tell you this—I can take out weaklings like you three at a time by myself!”

Quentin: “??”

Who was she calling a goddamn weakling?

 

There must really be a problem with the woman’s eyes!

He was about to speak when Lily took a good look at Quentin with the help of the car lights. Her eyes immediately brightened and she asked, “Say, why are you straying from the right path when you’re such a good-looking man? Shall I help you out? “

Quentin: “?”

Lily coughed and asked, “Do you have a girlfriend?”

Quentin: “??”

Wasn’t the topic of their conversation changing a little too quickly?

How did they suddenly start talking about whether he had a girlfriend or not?

His brows drew together and he answered, “No, I don’t.”

Lily said excitedly, “I don’t have a boyfriend, either!”

Quentin: “…”

The corners of his lips spasmed as Lily asked, “Do you earn a lot from stealing?”

Quentin: “??”

“It definitely isn’t a lot, right? How about this, why don’t you date me? I can give you money and a place to live in. I can even buy you a house in New York. I have an annual salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars! That’s nearly a million dollars, you know!”

Quentin: “!!!!”

The corners of his lips spasmed again. He felt a little like the conversation was getting more and more far-fetched.

Was she hitting on him???

He stared at Lily. If she weren’t Big Sister’s assistant, Quentin would have punched her and given her a taste of his martial arts prowess a long time ago!

He sneered, “Do you think I would be tempted by that bit of money you have?”

Lily thought for a moment. “Well, that’s true. Someone like you who specializes in stealing from wealthy families must be a master thief, right? I guess that bit of money I have won’t attract you, after all. By the way, I’m a doctor. If you get beaten up during a heist, you can come to me. Of course, if you ever decide to pull back and repent, and don’t feel like working hard anymore, you can come to me then too~~”

Lily took out a business card from her pocket. When she looked back up to pass it to Quentin, the man was already gone!

Lily: “?”

He ran away so quickly?

What a shame! He was so handsome!

Lily sighed and got into her car.

—

Quentin was someone who belonged in the shadows.

Apart from a few of the Smiths, very few outsiders knew of him, even fewer had ever met him. Therefore, Lily had never seen Quentin before, despite having lived in the Smiths’ manor for so long.

Quentin entered the living room. As he watched Lily drive off, he couldn’t help but hold his forehead.

Never mind that his cousin was a weirdo… uh, a genius, but why was everyone around her also so weird?

The corners of his lips spasmed a little. It was at this moment that his cell phone vibrated. He took it out and saw that Nora had sent him a screenshot of a chat.
