He falls to the ground, twitching and bleeding.<\/p>\n<p>Louis slides his wheelchair into the warehouse. Lily lies still on the ground with dull eyes. His heart aches. He picks her up and wraps her in a blanket. &#8220;You&#8217;re safe now.&#8221; Louis strokes her hair and comforts her mildly, &#8220;I won&#8217;t let him off.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He does not look at anyone and carries Lily out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You! You&#8217;re so stupid!&#8221; Antony is very angry. He turns around and angrily says to the servant, &#8220;Hurry up and find a doctor!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Louis carries Lily to the bathroom, only to discover that her hands have been fractured. He gets so mad that he wishes he has shot Ellison in the heart.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It might hurt. Hold it,&#8221; says Louis.<\/p>\n<p>After finding the fractured bones, Louis links up her wrists in one go.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ouch!&#8221; Lily finally recovers from terror. Her forehead is sweating from the pain. She blinks and finds that she is hugged by Louis. Her eyes turn red.<\/p>\n<p>She has been in a daze.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It doesn&#8217;t hurt anymore. You&#8217;ll be fine.&#8221; Louis kisses her hands gently, although they are dirty. Lily is embarrassed and pulls out her hands.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing that the bathtub is full, Louis says, &#8220;Take a bath first. I&#8217;ll ask someone to buy clothes for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Can you stay here?&#8221; Lily grabs his clothes. She is startled by what happened just now. &#8220;Please stay here. I&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She doesn&#8217;t want to be alone.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright.&#8221; Louis does not refuse. He turns his back to the bathtub and calls the servant.<\/p>\n<p>Louis asks the servant to buy her clothes. And the size of the clothes is just right for her. She gets a bit shy.<\/p>\n<p>She thinks, he must have scored a lucky hit.<\/p>\n<p>After soaking in the bathtub, Lily gradually get relaxed. Looking at the light red mark on her chest, she feels sick.<\/p>\n<p>Louis knows that she feels uncomfortable when he hears her retching noise. He clenches his fist.<\/p>\n<p>He asks softly, &#8220;Is there any injury on your body?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No.&#8221; Lily takes a deep breath and calms herself down, &#8220;President Smith, how did you find me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I couldn&#8217;t have done this without your brother.&#8221; Louis says. &#8220;Your brother called you, and the servant answered the phone. The servant came to Lotus Pond but didn&#8217;t see you, so he gave me the phone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Looks like I made it.&#8221; Lily looks at the ring in her hand and says, &#8220;Fortunately, I didn&#8217;t put it at home for its ugly look. It saved my life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What is it? Can I take a look?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily stretches out to show him the ring, &#8220;My brother gave it to me before. I don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s inside. But he asked me to knock it if I&#8217;m in danger.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That ring is not different from other ordinary rings. It even looks like a defective ring.<\/p>\n<p>Louis stares at the ring for a long time. He suddenly recalls the call and that familiar voice.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s your brother&#8217;s name?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Coffey.&#8221; After answering his question, Lily feels puzzled, &#8220;Why did you ask about my younger brother&#8217;s name?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Louis turns on his phone and hands it to her. &#8220;Is this him?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The young man in the photo shown on the screen is Coffey. It seems like an ID photo and he looks very serious.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes, he&#8217;s my brother.&#8221; Lily is shocked. She looks up at Louis and says, &#8220;President Smith, why do you have a picture of my brother? Are you&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She gets a little nervous.<\/p>\n<p>Louis asks curiously, &#8220;Like what?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily says, &#8220;You know, boys are always hot-blooded. I&#8217;m worried that he wants to become a soldier or a bodyguard on impulse, especially after he knew Kay. It would be dangerous.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Louis chuckles.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, not only does Coffey know him, but also, he is Kay&#8217;s boss!<\/p>\n<p>Lily is a little puzzled, &#8220;President Smith, what are you laughing at? Am I wrong?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Louis says somewhat jealously, &#8220;You must be tired. You really care about him. You fear that he will go astray so much.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He has already gone astray! There are so many pretty girls, but he likes none of them! I don&#8217;t even know how to tell my mother about it.&#8221; Lily seems worried.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I used to dislike Miss Chloe. But when I think of my brother, she seems perfect. By the way, President Smith, Miss Chloe seems to have fell in love with a man.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Louis raises his eyebrows, &#8220;Why didn&#8217;t I know that?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She picked on me, not you!&#8221; Lily rolls her eyes at him and says, &#8220;She met me twice. Every time she would throw a cheque onto me and tell me to break up with a man called Grey Wolf. She said I was shameless because she thought I flirted with a young guy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m completely confused. I don&#8217;t even know I have a boyfriend! That guy must have used my name, so Miss Chloe thought he liked me and picked on me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By the way, whose name would be Grey Wolf? Isn&#8217;t that too strange?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Did she really tell you that?&#8221; Louis asks.<\/p>\n<p>He is also confused, not knowing why Chloe doesn&#8217;t pester him anymore.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out that she is pestering Coffey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2109","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
