Chapter 166
Loid’s messages flooded in
“Thaven’t seen you the whole day. I miss you”
“Have you eaten?”
“Do you have medicine that can make a person grow up sooner? I can’t wait to get married to you right after you turn 20.
“My wound hurts!”
Lily glanced at the messages and tagged away on her phone She replied, “Not even a scar is left from your gunshot wound.”
The text was succinct and cold.
After reading her reply, Loid texted back with a long line of ellipses. Lily just gave it a cursory glance before putting away her phone coolly
Melanie, who was standing across from Lily, was overwhelmed by a warm and fuzzy feeling in her heart. She couldn’t believe how considerate and caring Lily was. How did she get such a wonderful daughter–in–law?
Lily checked the time and said, “Melanie, it’s getting late.”
Melanie snapped out of her thoughts. She said with a smile, “We still have time.”
Pausing slightly, she then added, “Are you really not selling the cream?”
Lily lowered her gaze and pursed her lips. “Do you want me to sell in?”
“Of course! You sell it to me for 5,000 dollars, and I’ll sell it for 20,000 dollars per jar. I’m telling you, this is good stuff. Lots of people will fight over it. I want to help you earn more moneyso that you can buy whatever you want,” Melanie proposed.
Since Lily y had given her such a great product, she had to reciprocate by helping her sell it. With her social connections, there would be no shortage of buyers,
Lily felt a bit tempted by Melanie’s suggestion.
Attending the Weiss family’s auction required a lot of money, and the two business opportunities Loid had introduced were not feasible. One was in Bridgeport, where she wouldn’t have time to go. The other option involved Jason, whom she couldn’t collect any payment from.
Recently, she had only earned ten billion dollars from the Dalton family, which was still far from enough. She needed to make more money. So, every little bit mattered. “okay” Lily nodded. “I’ll make more in the next few days. I’ll have to trouble you to help me sell them, Melanie.”
Melanie feigned annoyance at what she said. “There’s no need for such formality between us. Don’t speak so decorously with me in the future, okay?
Lily smiled and said nothing more. A driver came to pick Melanie and her up. When they arrived at the hotel, there were ten minutes left before the banquet started.
Many people had already arrived. The Laurier family’s car was easily recognizable, mainly due to its ostentatious license plate, which no one could miss.
As soon as the car stopped, those who were still at the hotel entrance passed to watch. Everyone knew that tonight’s banquet was hosted by the Laurier family for their future daughter–in–law. Thus, they were all curious about Loid’s fiancée and wondered what she was like,
Melanie was the first to step out of the car, she wore a luxurious sky–blue gown. With her elegant updo, she exuded nobility and grace.
Following her, Lily stepped out of the opened car door next. She wore a pair of pale pink high heels. Her slender, fair legs looked long and elegant as she stepped out. Her white evening gown was tailored to perfection, accentuating her figure perfectly. Her face was exquisite; she looked like an ethereal fairy.
The world seemed to fall silent. No one spoke, and one could even hear the sounds of people’s breathing.
