Chapter 209
\nA Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 209<\/p>\n
Daniel clearly has the intention to ask more questions. Lily, however, at the thought of Chandler\u2019s secret identity, starts to talk before Daniel can say anything.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s my middle school classmate\u2019s kid, and my mom lives in the same neighborhood with him. So, I take him out when I have time. Mr. Daniel, do you like this kind of child?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYour classmate?\u201d<\/p>\n
Lily nods her head and continues to make up the story with a straight face, \u201cHis mom teaches art, and his dad was a member of the National Ping Pong Team. But he retired last year.\u201d<\/p>\n
It\u2019s hard to miss the disappointment felt by Daniel.<\/p>\n
Daniel has no clue why this child\u2019s black eye kernels have left such a deep impression on him. He knows what he thought is impossible, but he has to ask.<\/p>\n
If Stella had his child, he would know, right?<\/p>\n
Lily immediately changes the subject for fear of his suspicion, \u201cMr. Daniel, does Miss Stella know you have such deep feeling for her? Letting your ex marry your own buddy, you\u2019re such a generous man.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel casts a cold glance at her.<\/p>\n
But Lily isn\u2019t afraid at all. She sees some letters vaguely hiding between his fingers, so she grabs his hand, \u201cThese letters must have something to do with Miss Stella.\u201d<\/p>\n
Miss Stella! Miss Stella!<\/p>\n
Daniel is not in a good mood tonight, when Lily keeps bringing up this name, his rage goes uncontrollable. He clenches her wrist and throws her against the wall.<\/p>\n
\u201cLily, you got what you want; now you can keep your mouth shut.\u201d His eyes are radiating fierce, as if he wants to kill her.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t say anything. You\u2019re the one who is throwing a fit.\u201d Lily keeps on picking on him, \u201cI suspect Miss Stella broke up with you because she couldn\u2019t stand your shitty tamper.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel clenches even harder.<\/p>\n
Lily gasps for pain. She thinks her wrist may be broken at any time.<\/p>\n
\u201cDaniel, you don\u2019t want to do this to me.\u201d Lily stares at him with growing rage, \u201cI know exactly what you did.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel sneers. He pushes his head towards Lily and asks with sarcasm, \u201cWell, what do you have on me?\u201d<\/p>\n
Lily chills out of fright.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s freaking scary.<\/p>\n
Her heart is pounding faster as if something is pressing on her chest. Lily gets sweats on her forehead and looks so pale. Without any sign, she just falls into Daniel\u2019s arms.<\/p>\n
Daniel pushes her away the next second, trying to keep a distance with her.<\/p>\n
\u201cLily?\u201d<\/p>\n
Seeing Lily\u2019s pale face, Daniel is shocked for a moment. He picks her up, the second he lifts his head up, he finds Stella is holding on to the wall. Stress flies all over his stomach.<\/p>\n
He says nothings and leaves with Lily in his arms.<\/p>\n
Stella scratches her fingers into the wall, feeling a little bit breathless.<\/p>\n
She knows Lily feels nothing for Daniel, but seeing such intimate scene, she\u2019s still jealous.<\/p>\n
Right after she calms herself down, she goes to Louis and tells him everything.<\/p>\n
\u201cLily passed out?\u201d<\/p>\n
Louis strides to guest lounge with Stella without any hesitation, and calls Justin.<\/p>\n
The phone dials, then Justin\u2019s voice appears, \u201cDaniel called me thirty seconds ago. I\u2019m on my way here. You can check her out first.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cASAP.\u201d Louis says.<\/p>\n
Louis enters the guest lounge, and Lily is lying on the sofa, looking all pale, breathing fast.<\/p>\n
He asked Daniel, \u201cWhat happened?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were talking, and she just suddenly fainted.\u201d Daniel is explaining the situation, \u201cFirst, she was sweating, and now her heart is racing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lily didn\u2019t have much but two glasses of champagne. When Louis was having the speech on stage, she followed Daniel to the corner.<\/p>\n
Everyone is shocked when seeing Daniel pushing Lily against the wall.<\/p>\n
Leigh looks in Daniel\u2019s direction and teases him, \u201cDamn, I can\u2019t believe you\u2019ve done that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Louis kicks him hard, looking all gloomy.<\/p>\n
Daniel shows no embarrassment. He explains shortly, \u201cShe was joking.\u201d<\/p>\n
Joking?<\/p>\n
Who would do that intimate shit because of a joke?<\/p>\n
Leigh has a lot in mind. He looks at Daniel and then Louis because he wants to be in this mess desperately. Stella, who has been quiet, stands out and changes the subject.<\/p>\n
She asks, \u201cFrom what we have seen, nobody did anything to her. So, what actually happened?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe was drugged, some kind of hard drug.\u201d Justin says with a serious face, \u201cIt\u2019ll cause heart stroke. Once the drug is absorbed by the body, it won\u2019t show in drug test. Unless you cut open the body and examine.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf the death cause is defined as heart stroke, people will automatically think of fatigue.\u201d Leigh thinks with hand on his chin. Then he looks at Louis, \u201cDidn\u2019t a senior manager of Smith Group die of this?\u201d<\/p>\n
Looking at Lily\u2019s pale face, Louis grunts assent. He says with a cold and hard voice, \u201cIt\u2019s her manager who died, heart stroke on the ride.\u201d<\/p>\n
Justin sneers, \u201cIf being tired can cause heart stroke, countless population will die every year. What a nice plan. Leaving no trace.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWho killed her manager?\u201d Leigh wonders, \u201cAnd why do it to her too?\u201d<\/p>\n
Louis plays his fingers on the trousers, \u201cI heard Leon was secretly doing money laundering for someone. Then he wanted to quit and take his wife and child to New York. I suppose those people killed him, but I can\u2019t find any evidence.\u201d<\/p>\n
When Louis got the report on Leon\u2019s death, he had suspicions. He also asked Clyde to investigate, but nothing was found. Later he had to deal with the business in the Smith family, so that was set aside.<\/p>\n
That person wants to kill Lily in the same way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2146","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2146","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=2146"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
