Lily claimed to help Liam because she saw him suffering a loss but he rejected her ridiculous plan.
Yet she questioned whether he was her brother.
How could such a person be his sister?
And how could he have pampered his own sister since birth?
Lily seemed oblivious to Liam's changing expression and continued to complain bitterly about Liam, even bringing up past events.
As Lily continued to complain about Liam, Liam’s expression grew increasingly grim.
Just as Lily brought up a recent event and continued to complain about Liam, Liam released his grip on Lily's wrist.
Just as Lily was puzzled by that, the next moment, with a loud "smack!" Lily's face swelled up completely red.
She couldn't believe it and covered her left cheek which was now red with swelling.
She looked at the hand that her brother had just let go of in disbelief.
Her own brother who had doted on her for over a decade had hit her?
And he had hit her on the face!
Lily looked at Liam with an expression of near-collapse on her face.
She tried to tell herself that the person who had just hit her wasn't her own brother or one of the few people who had been kind to her.
But the pain on her face and her brother's indifferent expression told her otherwise.
She had been hit!
Her own brother who had been by her side for over ten years had hit her!
The last defense in Lily's heart was completely shattered by the betrayal of her own family.
Tears streamed down her face, "Liam, I hate you!"
With that, she turned and ran away.
A glint appeared in his eyes, and he involuntarily picked up his phone and dialed Garry's number.
He seemed to be hesitating about something.
Several minutes later, on a bench by the roadside, Lily's eyes were no longer filled with tears, only a faint redness around her eyes.
As Lily looked at the contact information she had bought at great cost on her phone screen, her lips curled up slightly, forming a sly smile.
She didn’t expect her brother to refuse to help her.
In the end, she could only rely on herself.
Without hesitation, Lily dialed the number.
As soon as the call connected, an impatient voice came from the other end, "Who’s this? Why are you calling me? If you don't say anything, I'll hang up..."
Hearing the man threatening to hang up, Lily quickly said to stop him, "Wait a sec! I have an important matter to discuss with you! Isn't your boss currently searching for precious jade in various places?
"At the largest gems trading center in Imperium, someone has just revealed a rare piece of jewel that only appears once every ten years!"
