A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 409: No Need. I Got It

After a while, David nods, "You're right. I'd better keep apart from Ms. Lily. Mr. Smith's temper is even

more unfathomable than before. If he sees me chatting with Ms. Lily one day and recalls their past,

probably he will take it out on me."

"That's right. You've figured it out." Sofia smiles and says, "Before I came back from Melbourne, I went Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

to buy two silk scarves. You bring them back to your mom."

David is a little embarrassed, "You're very busy with your business. Why did you buy her scarves?"

"The design is good. I thought your mom would like it."

"Alright, then I'll transfer the money to you later."

"..."

"Why do you stop talking?" David asks. He takes advantage of the red light and stops the car. He is

about to look back when Sofia, who is right behind the seat, quickly leans over and kisses him.

Sofia presses her lips with a finger and smiles, "No need. I've already got it."

David hurriedly turns around and looks ahead. His ears quietly turn red.

...

After Lily arrives, she rings the doorbell for a long time without any reaction. She pats her head and

thinks that Jessie must have been taken home by Leigh since she's pregnant. How can she still live in

the apartment?

Lily doesn't have keys. She goes to the property management, provides the information and takes a

spare key.

The apartment looks clean, but the floor is covered with thick dust.

It looks like Jessie hasn't been here for a long time.

Lily is pregnant and she's afraid that vigorous exercise will hurt the babies, so she orders the house

cleaning service in an APP. Then while she pushes the suitcase to the bedroom, she calls Jessie.

She dials twice, and Jessie's phone is switched off.

She then dials Leigh, but no one answers for a long time. It's the same no matter how many times she

dials.

She's a little puzzled. 'Even if he stays with Jessie, it's impossible to throw away his phone, right?'

Lily doesn't know anything about what happens between Leigh and Jessie during those two months.

She thinks that Jessie still lives in the Lewis', and there are Leigh and his mother beside her.

Since none of them answers the phone, Lily gives up. She plans to go to Leigh tomorrow.

Lily puts her things in order. After receiving a call from the house cleaning service, she opens the door

and tells the aunt which places needs to clean up. Then she changes her shoes and goes out.

Chloe lives in the same apartment as her. Lily remembers which floor she is on and the house number.

She just doesn't know if Chloe lives here now.

After finding the house number, Lily actually hesitates. She stands in front of the door and thinks for a

long time.

The door opens, which startles her.

"Who, who are you?" The woman with the garbage bag is also shocked when she sees Lily.

"Are you the new tenant here?"

"..."

Seeing that the woman is very vigilant and doesn't reply, Lily says, "I'm here for Chloe. Does she still

live here?"

"What is the relationship between you and Miss Chloe?" The woman asks impolitely.

"I...." Lily hesitates to make a response, not knowing what to say.

Seeing this, the woman's face darkens and she curses, "You reporters are really annoying. You come

to harass Miss Chloe every day. I have to tell Mr. Smith to punish you! Go! Get out of here."

The woman pushes Lily rudely. She quickly holds the wall with her hand. Otherwise she will fall.

Lily sighs slightly.

She shouldn't have come to look for Chloe. Perhaps, Chloe doesn't want to see her as well.

"Betty, why haven't you left yet?"

A sweet voice comes from inside and the sound of slippers stepping on the floor can also be heard.

Then, a head pops out from the woman's shoulder.

"I'll be leaving soon. Miss Chloe, get inside. There's nothing here." The woman says as she closes the

door, but Chloe has already seen Lily standing outside.

Chloe's eyes suddenly light up and she says joyfully, "Lily, it's you!"

"Chloe." Seeing her still energetic after a few months, Lily almost bursts into tears. She tries her best to

force a smile. "Long time no see."

Regardless of Betty's obstruction, Chloe rushes out and hugs Lily.

She almost knocks Lily down.

"Lily, where have you been these past few months?" Chloe looks a little unhappy. "You didn't even call

me."

Thinking of those calls she has missed, Lily's eyes turn moist. She touches Chloe's head and says, "I'm

on a business trip."

"How can there be such a long business trip? And you didn't even contact me." She mumbles and

takes Lily to the apartment, "Lily, come with me."

She says to Betty, "Betty, throw away the garbage later. Please prepare some fruit for us."

Chloe sits on the sofa with Lily and asks her many questions with great excitement.

Lily replies patiently, and soon she realizes that something is wrong.

She hands a piece of pear to Chloe and carefully asks her, "Chloe, do you miss Coffey?"

"Who is Coffey?" Chloe turns around and asks Lily. Her eyes are filled with curiosity.

"..."

"Lily, why don't you talk?" Chloe shakes Lily's arm and asks, "Who exactly is Coffey? Why do you ask

me if I miss him?"

Lily skips a heartbeat. Looking at Chloe's puzzled and curious expression, she feels her head is

buzzing.

Chloe asks her who Coffey is.

Betty comes over with the juice and pretends to accidentally spill it on Lily.

"Miss Chloe, I'll take Ms. Lily to the bathroom to clean up." Betty says as she winks at Lily.

Lily knows what Betty means and follows her to the bathroom.

After entering the bathroom, Betty apologizes, "I'm sorry, Ms. Lily. I just want to tell you something."

Lily forces a smile. "Go ahead."

Betty says, "I was required by Mr. Smith to take care of Miss Chloe two months ago. Miss Chloe seems

to be lively. Actually, except Mr. Smith, she doesn't talk to anyone else."

"After I took care of Miss Chloe for more than a month, Miss Chloe started to talk to me." As she says,

Betty glances at Lily. "You're the third one. Miss Chloe even takes the initiative to talk to you."

Lily tries to suppress the uneasiness and asks Betty, "Can you tell me what happened to Chloe?"

Betty shakes her head and sounds helpless, "I don't know either. I just know that Miss Chloe doesn't

like to communicate with people. Besides, please don't mention 'Coffey' in front of her."

"Mr. Smith also told me that no matter who he is, as long as he mentions this name in front of Miss

Chloe, I should drive him out, including Mr. Justin. And he will never come here again."

Lily closes her eyes and feels pretty sad.

When seeing that Chloe is still so lively, she thinks that Chloe is fine. She doesn't expect....

Lily is about to say something when she hears Chloe's voice through the bathroom door, "Louis, why

are you here at this time?"

So Louis comes here?

"It's Mr. Smith." Betty opens the door and asks Lily, "Do you know Mr. Smith? Do you want to go out

and see him?"

Lily leans against the door and smiles at Betty, "I'll wait a minute."

"Alright, then I'll go first."

After Betty leaves, Lily loses her strength and falls on the toilet seat. She feels sad and remorseful. She

doesn't even have the courage to go out and see Chloe.
