Chapter 207


    Loidughed out loud with a tender look in his eyes. "One cent in interest. How does that sound?"


    "Deal," Lily readily agreed.


    It felt good to be spending her fiancé''s money.


    Meanwhile, Shaun felt envious of the couple''s loving interaction.


    …


    After dinner, Lily texted Venom on her way back to the Laurier residence: "Your whereabouts are exposed. Someone will look for you at Alchos. Get Hawk to help you with the disguise."


    Soon, she received a reply: "Fuck! Who are they? I thought you edited my coordinates."Material ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Stealing a nce at Loid, she found him enjoying some shut-eye. She looked away and fell into a short silence. Then, she wrote: "They''re the people who were after you today."


    Speechless, Venom thought, "Ugh, they won''t stop haunting me!"


    Venom: "Cool. I have trust in Hawk''s disguise techniques. I''ll be waiting for them at Alchos. Let''s see if they''ll recognize me. Thanks."


    Lily did not reply this time. She tucked her phone into her pocket and had some shut-eye. She hadn''t asked Loid about his grudge with Venom. After all, it wasn''t a conflict she could resolve in person.


    Many of her identities had been exposedtely. She would only invite trouble if people found out she was K from Alchos.


    After dinner at the Laurier residence, Arthur consumed the medicine that Nell had prepared for him, followed by an acupuncture session. He looked more vigorous after that.


    Mnie and Stefan left home three hourster than Loid and Lily, and they just made it to the Laner residence not long ago.


    When Loy got home, she saw Arthur chatting merrily with Mnie and Stefan, who had dropped by for a visit. Arthur clearly seemed fond of Stefan and his family, judging from the care smile on his face.


    Mnie took Lily’s hand. “You must be tired after a day of traveling in the car.”


    “I’m okay.” Lily was sleepy but tried her best to be agreeable around Mnie.


    Arthur did not know Lily that well, but he had heard about Lily from Mnie. After meeting the youngdy in person, he took a liking to her.


    He motioned at Lily toe over. “Here, youngdy, Let’s have a chat.”


    Nodding, Lily took a seat beside him.


    “I heard you cured Loid’s illness. Is that true? Arthur forced a smile to make himself appear friendly and warm. Having spent years in business, he carried himself with an intimidating air, which he feared might be offputting for Lily.


    Staring at her feet, she replied softly, “Yes.”


    “Great Great.” Nodding furiously, Arthur praised her, “You’re so sessful at such a young age! Mnie was right. Loid doesn’t deserve you!”


    Laid was rendered wordless at Arthur’s backhandedpliment.


    Tilting her head, Lily nced at him with a smile. “He’s fine, I guess I don’t have high standards.”
