A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 508: Why Does He Care So Much?

Louis lowers his head and reads the documents to divert his attention. He replies indifferently, "You

think too much. She wanted to break up with me, and I agreed. Now she is pregnant with someone

else's child and getting married. She has my blessing."

Chandler is doubtful. "But I don't see it on your face."

...

Louis just ignores Chandler, so Chandler leans over and asks, "So, do you know that police had taken

Lily away before?"

"What?" Louis looks up at Chandler. "When?"

"You really don't know it?" Chandler widens his eyes and says in surprise, "It was during your business

trip. They made a big deal out of it. I thought you knew about it."

"Tell me why she was taken away."

So, Chandler tells Louis everything. The Egret Company accused the HS of stealing their products. Lily

was suspected of murdering a pregnant woman. She was taken to the police station from the company

and stayed there for ten days.

Chandler continues, "Chloe kept calling you after Lily was taken away. But your phone was switched

off. In the end, it was Jessie who went to the Egret Company and asked them to drop the case."

"I was dealing with something abroad. I can't bring my phone with me there." Louis looks very gloomy

now. "I didn't expect it would happen."

When he was negotiating with Willow's family, he gave them a house in the center of L City and 50

million out of guilt.

Louis thinks that he has fixed it, but he never expects that they would be so greedy and come at Lily!

"Chloe and I could do nothing but watch Lily getting detained. Fortunately, Jessie was there. If it weren't

for her asking them to withdraw the lawsuit, Lily would have been screwed up."

Louis asks, "When I was abroad, was it big news?"

"Of course. It has been a trending topic and the headlines of the major websites," Chandler says,

"There were many reporters waiting outside the HS. That is a big scene."

"It's such big news, but I didn't see anything when I came back." Louis smiles coldly. He looks

intimidating with his dark eyes. "Looks like someone knows my schedule very well!"

When he went abroad, they made it the headline all over the country.

When he comes back, everything is gone.

Chandler is not stupid. He knows what Louis means. "You mean that someone messed with Lily when

you went abroad?"

"Stay out of it. I will take care of it," Louis says indifferently.

Louis has been suspecting that someone put blood-circulation herbs in the duck soup. But he didn't

investigate it back then. Now he's sure that someone did that on purpose.

He wants to find out who was behind it and did such nasty things!

Chandler shrugs and mutters, "What good does that do you now? Lily is getting married."

Louis looks at Chandler gloomily, "What did you say?"

"Nothing!" Chandler shrinks back and jumps off the chair. "It's still early. I'll go to the hospital and see if

I can get the medicine. Then I could go to Lily's place to see my future wife." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"Wait." Louis calls Chandler, "What medicine are you going to take at the hospital?"

"Just the kind that Lily was prescribed for last time. It's for the babies," Chandler says, "Lily has taken

two boxes of the medicine. I think that she might need it."

"Let me see."

Chandler unlocks his phone and finds the photo of the medicine box that he took before. He hands his

phone to Louis. "Here it is."

Louis looks at it and frowns. "There aren't many medicines for unborn babies. And I've never heard of

it. Are you sure you took it from the hospital?"

"Yes, I took it from the hospital's window." Chandler scratches his head. He's confused. "Wait. How do

you know that there aren't many medicines for unborn babies? Why are you searching this? Louis, are

you...."

"No." Louis interrupts Chandler and returns the phone to him with a grim face.

"I didn't say anything!"

Louis lowers his head to deal with his work. "I still have work to do. Just go."

...

Since Louis ignores him, Chandler shrugs and leaves his office.

Louis seems to be working. But actually, he is thinking about something else.

After a while, Louis puts down his pen, finds Justin on WeChat and sends him the name of the

medicine he has just found. "Help me find out if this is a medicine for unborn babies and which

company makes it."

Justin never texts him back.

When Louis realizes what he has sent to Justin, he wants to withdraw it but fails.

He rubs his forehead, feeling extremely annoyed.

He must be crazy. Lily is not pregnant with his child. Why does he care so much?

Suddenly, someone calls him.

"Mr. Smith, I haven't seen you in a while." After Louis picks it up, Baron smiles and asks, "Are you

busy? Would you like to have dinner with me tonight?"

"Yes. And no," Louis replies simply.

Baron clicks his tongue and says regretfully, "What a pity. I want to treat you to dinner and tell you

something about Ms. Lily. Now I know you're busy. Maybe some other time!"

Louis narrows his eyes. "You know that she was taken away?"

"Mr. Smith, you don't know it?"

...

Two minutes later, Louis hangs up the phone, picks up his coat and strides out of his office.

He walks out and meets David.

"Mr. Smith, are you going out?" David asks, "Will you come back? There's a reception tonight...."

"You go for me."

"David, how long have you worked for me?" Louis looks at David and asks coldly when he goes past

David.

"It's been a long time." David's heart gets in his mouth. "Mr. Smith, am I going to the New York branch

again?"

"I see."

Louis remembers that David has been standing beside him since he took over the Smith Group.

Even if David goes abroad for something, he is still in charge of the core business of the company.

Louis does trust David much.

Louis pats David's shoulder. "Thank you for all these years."

...

David is stunned as he watches Louis leave. He couldn't help but think about Louis's words. "What

does Mr. Smith mean? Have I offended him? Will I get fired?"

David racks his brains, but he still couldn't figure out if he has irritated Louis.

...

The new product of the HS Company is very successful. Pre-sales in all regions are sold out within two

minutes.

There is not enough in the budget, so Lily does not promote the product on Weibo. However, people

love its commercial, and social media is buzzing.

In just a few hours, their new product gets hundreds of millions of views, and it is still one of the

trending topics.

Lily never expects this to happen.

Moreover, the pre-sales are so good that the higher-ups of the headquarter ask Lily to add two more

batches of pre-sales. If their factories could not make it, they could contact another factory to help Lily.

Lily is not surprised by their greed, so she agrees indifferently.

The new product is a great success. Meanwhile, Lily notices that the Egret Company's perfumer, who

took their perfume sample and pretended that it was his own work, stole his classmate's work as his

graduate work. Now, he's accused of tax evasion.

Because of him, the Egret Company is investigated as well. There are a lot of problems. The company

goes bankrupt, and a bunch of shareholders want their money back. As for the perfumer, he's arrested

for tax evasion.

Seeing this report, Lily snorts coldly, "He's asking for it!"

"President Lily." Her assistant knocks on the door and says hesitantly, "There's a piece of news on

Weibo. It's very useful for our new product promotion, but it has a great impact on you...."

Lily's heart skips a beat. She asks calmly, "They're talking about my family again?"

"No." Her assistant hands the iPad to Lily. "It's about you and Mr. Smith. You become a trending

topic."
