In the lounge.
After Skylar and Albie left, the person in charge turned their heads to look at Lily, feeling guilty. He lowered his head and said, "Miss, it is my mistake. I also have a certain responsibility. If you want to punish me, I will certainly not have any complaints."
Lily stared at the person in charge, and said, "When you look for a supplier in the future, you have to investigate carefully. Just give her this cooperation. You take care of the rest. I need to find a place to stay."
After that, she glanced at Edith, with a hint of complexity in her eyes.
"Yes, Miss, I will definitely handle the follow-up." The person in charge quickly said.
Lily didn't say anything and didn't say hello to Edith. She just turned around and walked out of the lounge. She was afraid that she might not be able to control herself. After all, Edith was equivalent to her rival in love. How could she remain calm in front of her rival in love?
Edith originally wanted to say hello to Lily. After all, they knew each other. Besides, Lily helped her solve the trouble just now. Edith felt that she had to thank Lily.
But before Edith could speak, Lily glanced at her with a meaningful look and then left here.
Edith didn't know why she felt a trace of desolation from Lily's eyes and back.
‘Did she go through something desperate? The gaze that she looked at me just now seemed to be looking at the enemy, but it wasn't too aggressive.
I remember that when I saw her last time, she was still an innocent and lively girl. Why did she become so desperate this time?’
Several doubts popped into Edith's mind. But no one could answer her, so she had no choice but to stop thinking about these things. Then she discussed the cooperation with the person in charge.
...
In the afternoon.
At a tea house in J City.
Albie was making tea. He only knew a little about the tea culture, purely to pretend to be knowledgeable in front of others. So there were many mistakes in his actions. Besides, he did not look elegant.
"Auntie, taste this tea. This is the best tea here. This pot of tea cost me more than one thousand dollars." Albie smiled and looked at Amara sitting opposite him.
Amara stared at Albie contemptuously. Now a thousand dollars was nothing to her. But Albie showed off, which really made her look down on him a bit.
"So what? Just one thousand dollars. If I want to drink it, I can drink it every day. Don't try to use this thing to please me. Just tell me why you asked me out today. In fact, our family has nothing to do with yours. So don't call me Auntie. I have nothing to do with you." Amara curled her lips and said.
Albie was a little embarrassed at once, but he did not take Amara's words to heart. He stood up and said, "Auntie, no matter what, we are all from Patel family. How can you say that your family has nothing to do with me?"
"Just say what you want to do." Amara said impatiently.
"Since Auntie is so direct, I'll just say it straight. The reason why I asked you out this time is just because I want you to do me a favor." Albie said.
"What's the matter?" Amara instinctively wanted to refuse.
"Help make the company of Patel family go bankrupt." A smirk appeared on Albie’s face.
Amara stood up directly and yelled at Albie, "Are you insane? The company is my daughter’s. Do you think I'm as stupid as you? You want me to help you make the company go bankrupt?"
