Chapter 493


    A —s night fell, in a private club, Mary Ann, dressed in a pure white princess dress, was celebrating


    her eighteenth birthday together with her close friends in the circle.


    The number of friends that she invited over wasn''t many, but they were all friends that she felt she


    had yed pretty well. Amongst them, Joshua Wayne, as her boss, naturally came to the scene to


    celebrate for her.


    When it was around seven, Lily hurriedly pushed open the door and entered.


    Sitting at the counter, Joshua Wayne who had already rejected multiple beauties, had obviously not


    expected Mary Ann to invite her here. The moment he saw her push open the door and enter, the


    hand holding the wine cup slightly froze.


    "Lily, I thought you weren''ting anymore. I was so happy that you came!" Mary Ann immediately


    ran over and hugged Lily. Her beautiful face was filled with happiness.


    Lily also patted her shoulder, "Mary, happy birthday, a small present, I hope you will like it!" Lily took


    out his present.


    "Thank you. I already said, don''t give me any gifts, I''m happy as you cane. In the beginning, I


    didn''t think I could invite you, because you are about to marry a famous figure meanwhile I’m a


    nobody." Mary Ann said with a childish smile.


    Lily was speechless, and immediately smiled: "Don''t be like that, we are also friends, it is already


    my honor and privilege for you to invite me here!"


    "Oh, right, I''ve invited my boss over as well. You''re his sister-inw, go and chat with him. He was


    just arguing about leaving, saying that it is too boring here." Mary Ann immediately grabbed Lily''s


    hand and pulled her towards Joshua Wayne.


    When Lily just entered, she did not pay attention to what kind of friends Mary Ann had invited over.


    She had originally wanted toe here and greet her before almost leaving.


    Even though Mary Ann was young, her impression of her was not bad. She knew that she was also


    a very simple and hardworking good girl.


    But when she saw Mary Ann forcefully push her to sit beside Joshua Wayne, the smile on her face


    froze for some reason.


    Joshua Wayne did not expect Mary Ann to pull Lily and walk towards him, and when he reacted, Lily


    was seated right beside him.


    Lily was also extremely embarrassed.


    "I don’t know that you woulde as well!" Joshua Wayne turned his head to the side, and his


    gaze swept across Lily''s face.


    Lily alsoughed dryly, "That''s right, Mary called me a few times. With such a passionate invitation,


    it would be bad if I did note!"

    "Sis, you should chat with my boss first. I still have a programter. You have to eat my cake before


    you leave!" After Mary Ann said this very enthusiastically, she went to greet her friends again.


    The two of them sat on the sofa with unnatural expressions on their faces.


    "Have a drink!" Joshua Wayne reached out and handed over a ss of red wine.


    Lily took it and whispered, "Thank you!"


    "Are the children alright? I haven''t seen them for a while, I miss them a bit." Joshua Wayne''s


    expression returned to normal and his voice became slightly deeper.


    Ever since he confessed to Lily, he could no longer pretend to be that rxed and rogue personality


    of his.


    Lily also truthfully replied, "They''re all fine and they also want to see you. If you have the time, go


    home and eat a meal; your grandfather and grandmother also miss you every day."


    "I recently... I''m a little busy, we''ll see." It was not that Joshua Wayne didn''t want to return, but that


    he didn''t dare.


    Lily could hear the guilt in his tone, and subconsciously, she bit her lips, ced the wine cup to her


    lips and took a sip.


    "Look at how happy Mary Ann is, do you think he wille?" Joshua Wayne leaned on the chair


    behind him again and lightly changed the topic.


    "Who?" Lily was a little astonished, but after that, she suddenly thought of the person Mary Ann


    secretly liked, and couldn''t help butugh: "I can''t guess as well, I didn''t ask them if they have


    developed or not."


    "As far as I know, they should already be dating." Joshua Wayne said.


    "Really? That''s good. A good couple should have a good destiny!" Lily rejoiced.


    Joshua Wayne''s eyes turned slightly unsightly as he said indifferently: " It just depends on luck."


    Lily turned her head, her gaze gently falling on his face, and she felt that the wine in the cup had


    be somewhat bitter.


    Mary Ann was chatting with her friends when she suddenly received a call.


    She went to the side to answer it, her beautiful face beaming with happiness.


    However, after she finished answering the phone, the smile on Mary Ann''s face became a little


    forced.


    Just at this time, another person came. This time, Mary Ann''s entire being was standing at the door


    in a daze.


    Because, there were a few of her friends standing outside the door, and at the same time, another


    uninvited person had actuallye. It was Lily.


    The clothes she wore today was simply too beautiful. As she stood outside the door, the light from


    themp fell upon her body, for a moment, it actually overshadowed Mary Ann''s limelight.


    "What is it? Do you not wee me? These people are also my good friends in the industry. I just


    returned home, so I didn''t have any ce to y, so I wanted toe over to get some fun from


    you. " Lily said while smiling gracefully.


    Mary Ann was still young after all, and was simply unable to deal with this kind of sudden situation.


    "Mary, this is Lily. She has a few brandedpanies under her, we will definitelye into contact


    with them often!" One of the women quickly exined.


    "Oh, since you''re here,e in and take a seat!" In front of so many friends, it was naturally not


    good to drive Lily away. She could only endure the displeasure in her heart and let Lilye in to


    take a seat.


    Lily immediately threw over a word of thanks, and then walked in with graceful steps.


    Because of boredom, Lily''s gaze was always on the main character Mary Ann, and seeing her


    standing there by herself, she stood up, walked towards her and patted her on the shoulder: "Mary,


    what''s wrong? Are you disappointed that he didn''te? "


    Mary Ann turned her head to look at Lily, and suddenly grabbed her hand: "Big Sis, let''s go out and


    chat!"


    Lily stared nkly before being forcefully dragged towards outside by Mary Ann.


    Seeing that Mary Ann had brought Lily out, Joshua Wayne''s eyes slightly narrowed, and in an


    instant, ayer of gloom covered his face.


    What was this Mary Ann doing?


    And at this moment, Mary Ann used a lot of strength to bring Lily to the very end of the corridor to a


    corner.
