Chapter 478: There Is Nothing to Be Angry About
Chapter 478: There Is Nothing to Be Angry About
"Mr. Louis Smith and Miss Valentina Hester Are Getting Married Soon." The headline printed in bold
hurts Lily's eyes.
Her arms are also trembling slightly.
She thinks that she won't care about Louis anymore after she came back from L City.
But today, when she sees him hugging another woman in the news and their relationship becoming a
trending topic, her heart aches badly.
Jessie is the first one that reacts. She pulls the phone out of Lily's hand and says, "I wonder which
newspaper has nothing to do and writes this kind of entertainment news every day to get attention."
"I know right!" Chloe also regains her senses and nods at once, "The news must be fake..."
"Without Louis’ consent, which newspaper would dare post such news?" Lily looks calm, as if this news
has no effect on her. "Valentina? This name sounds very familiar."
'I must have heard of this name somewhere but I just can't remember who she is.'
"Is she from your circle?" Lily looks at Chloe, "You know her?"
Chloe shakes her head and goes over to take hold of Lily's arm, "Lily, just forget about that. You're way
better than Valentina. I wonder why Louis didn't see that and chose her!"
"Don't worry, Lily! I'm on your side! I know many people, so tell me what kind of man you like. I'm sure I
can find you a guy a hundred times better than Louis!"
"Sounds good." Lily laughs lightly.
Tilting her head, she thinks about that carefully and says, "I'd like a guy who is 1.8 meters tall, loving
and caring. He also needs to be nice to our parents and can afford to treat me well."
"Lily, are...are you serious?" Chloe stutters.
"You were just teasing me?"
Jessie is afraid that Chloe might say something wrong again, so she quickly pulls her over and says,
"Chloe means that being loving and caring may be too general. Do you have any specific requirements
for personality and appearance?"
Lily smiles faintly and says, "I don't have any special requirements for that. Besides, the guys Chloe
knows must be good ones. All I hope is that they won't dislike me."
Jessie elbows Chloe.
Chloe reads the message in her eyes and says immediately, "Alright! Lily, I'll keep an eye on that for
you!"
"OK. I'm a bit sleepy so I'd like to go back to get some sleep. You guys go ahead please."
After Lily enters the bedroom, Chloe looks at Jessie at once and says, "Lily really wants to meet a man.
What should we do?"
"Isn't that good?" Jessie continues her work, "You just get a few for her to pick."
Chloe feels anxious, "But...but what about Louis..."
"Don't mention him anymore!" Jessie glances at her and says with a cold voice, "They've already
broken up! He has nothing to do with whom Ms. Lily will date, and vice versa."
When Lily grabbed Chloe's phone, Jessie was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable when she saw
the news. However, Lily looked calm, as if she didn't care about the news at all.
Jessie has no idea whether or not Lily was just pretending.
But she does hope that Lily didn't care.
Chloe pouts with her red lips and is about to say something. Jessie quickly grabs a handful of cherry
tomatoes and puts them in Chloe's mouth. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Her mouth is stuffed with cherry tomatoes and her cheek bulges like a pufferfish.
"You also saw the news, didn't you? Mr. Smith already has a girlfriend, so don't talk about that
anymore." Jessie stares at Chloe and warns her, "Go ahead, if you don't mind that Lily won't come here
again."
Hearing her words, Chloe hunches her shoulders and doesn't dare to say anything more.
She doesn't want to be hated by Lily!
Returning to her room, Lily doesn't sleep. She has been thinking about the news she saw just now.
What a match, Louis and Valentina!
After a while, Lily gets out of bed and turns on the laptop on the desk.
She clicks on the webpage and searches for 'Louis Smith, Valentina Hester'. All of a sudden, a lot of
relevant news comes up.
Some news reveals Valentina's background information while some just adds fuel to the story, saying
that Louis and Valentina have known each other long ago and both of them have met their parents. It's
also said that Valentina came back to the country for the wedding.
Lily turns to look at Valentina's information.
Valentina's mother was an interpreter and retired five years ago.
Her father is also a great person. He is the Finance Minister of the government. She has an elder sister
who has married in Singapore.
Valentina has studied in Ireland from primary school till she got the Doctor's degree. She becomes a
diplomat at such a young age and has been working in Ireland for all these years, but her life is very
low-key.
If it weren't for this news, many people wouldn't know who she is.
Lily stares at the webpage and scrolls down to the end of the news.
There she sees thousands of comments and even notices her name among them.
"Valentina's background is so impressive. She is shining just like the princess of the country!"
"She's so pretty and capable. She's the only one that deserves Mr. Smith. They two are a perfect
match."
"Just look at Valentina and then Lily. What the hell? Their distance is like that between the heaven and
the earth. How could Lily have the nerve to stand by Mr. Smith's side!"
"Lily's family was very poor. Her mother got divorced early on. She must have suffered a lot in private.
How could she go abroad to study and attend such a good academy like Valentina did?"
"..."
Looking at those unkind comments, Lily grabs the mouse hard.
She feels hurt and sad.
After a while, her bad mood gradually disappears. She calmly browses through the comments and then
the news. She suddenly sees again the picture of Louis and Valentina.
Lily gazes at Louis' arms around Valentina's waist for a few seconds, and then closes her laptop.
What they said in the comments is right. She has nothing to be angry about.
Valentina is very pretty, and she is also a diplomat. She is equal to Louis in family background. They
two are indeed a perfect match.
What does Lily have to bring to the table?
Nothing.
When Chandler gives back to her the repaired phone, Lily calls Victor at once.
After exchanging information with him for several times, Lily is pretty sure that Coffey has died. But
unlike the first time when she's heard about his death, this time Lily doesn't experience much change in
her mood. Instead, she feels quite calm.
She asks Victor, "Where is Jonathan now? I want to bring back Coffey's body."
Coffey is dead, but Lily doesn't want to see his body left abroad.
"He's still in Country Y," Victor says. "Mr. John wants you to take good care of yourself and your baby.
He's been following up this matter. As long as there's a chance, he'll definitely take back Coffey's body."
"I don't want to trouble him anymore. I want to talk to Jonathan directly," Lily says in a hoarse voice,
feeling very sad.
"Meghan is Jonathan's henchman, but he was shot dead by Coffey. Can Jonathan not be angry? If you
go to Country Y now, he'll definitely find a chance to attack you."
After a pause, Victor says, "Ms. Lily, don't say that you might bother us. You and Mr. John are friends. I
see how much you've helped Mr. John before."
That's right. Has John ever treated her as an outsider?
He's been protecting her all the time.
When she recalls the quarrel with Louis that day in the hospital, Lily covers her mouth tightly with her
hand, her eyes brimming with tears.
She really hates this man!
As soon as he returned to the country, he brought some people to the hospital to ruin her plan and let
Mrs. Lou take away Sophia. He always said he did that for her sake. But in the blink of an eye, he's
now dating another woman.
If he cared about her, would he try to get rid of her baby?
If he cared about her, would he sell information to Coffey and risk his life?
Lily really can't afford to love this man.
