    Carlos stops, “What?”


    Content held by N?velDrama.Org.


    “Looks like there’s some misunderstanding. If you hear any rumors, just ignore it.” Speaking which, Lily


    is a little embarrassed.


    Meanwhile, Carlos seems much more generous, “it doesn’t matter. Just try to make yourself stronger to


    fight back.”


    Lily’s eyes flickers, “Thank you, Carlos.”


    Carlos looks at her half-smiled face; her lips are red with white teeth and have a light dimple. After


    engaging her for several times, this is the first time he saw her smiling like this.


    It was like branches that have been soaked by the spring’s rain, it gave afort sense.


    “Carlos?”


    Carloses back to his sense and looks away, clearing his throat, “It’s fine, just work harder.”


    After speaking, before Lily even replies, he turns around and enters the office.


    When the door is closed, Lily, who is standing in front of the door, touches her nose, turns inexplicably


    and left.


    Nobody has realized that Ste, who had been hiding at the corner, witnesses all of this.


    …..


    After a hectic morning, it is finally luncheon time. Rex is not at thepany; therefore, Lily doesn’t


    have to rush to apany him.


    She deliberately goes to the coffee shop with Crystal to past time after eating.


    The two of them stand at the bar and wait for the coffee to grind. When the waiter hands it over, even


    when Lily hasn’t held it firmly, suddenly she is pushed by a huge force from the back and hits her right


    in the arm.


    Lily is incautious. The coffee spill over onto the floor and her hand.


    “Ouch!” She couldn’t help but exims.


    Crystal, who is standing on the side, is taken back and moves aside. Looking at her burned hand, she


    asks, “Are you okay?”


    Her white and tender skin turns immediately into light-red-colored. It definitely need a ointment,


    otherwise, it will blister.


    Lily frowns, “I’m fine.”


    Crystal turns around to look at the doer. Her face looks kind of familiar. It transpire that she is a


    colleague, but isn’t that close. She takes back what she was about to say, instead, she manage to say


    it politely, “How can you be so careless, didn’t you see us standing in front of you.”


    She expects the other party would at least apologize. But who knows that Ste doesn’t feel guilty at


    all. She merely nced at Lily’s hand and says, “Sorry, I didn’t see it.”


    Didn’t see it?


    Crystal is indignant. “You can’t even see us, and then what can you see?”


    “Goodness, I didn’t mean it, don’t be so exaggerated.” Ste nces at the coffee on the floor. “I’ll just


    buy you another cup of it.”


    Crystal is shocked by her snotty attitude, “it’s not about the coffee. It is about your behavior. Is this how


    you apologize?”


    “I didn’t even hurt you, why are you mad?” after saying, she nces at Lily and mutters, “I just tried to


    fawn her…..”


    Before Crystal takes an action, Lily, who has been silent all this time, stops her and looks at Ste, “You


    intentionally push me?”


    Although she is asking her, her tone is really serious that people won’t dare to lie.


    Ste panicked for a few seconds, but quickly settled down, “Howe, I really didn’t see you.”


    “Really.” Lily doesn’t bother to continue this topic, instead she suddenly asks, “What’s your name?”


    Crystal is a little puzzled, but still manages to say, “Ste.”


    At first, she thinks that Lily will argue with her, she has even prepared all of the script, but she doesn’t


    seem to y with it. Did she find out about her intention, and ask her name for revenge?


    She recalls the rumors inside thepany. If Lily indeed has a connection with the superior, will she


    report her?


    Ste regrets for being so impulsive. Lily says nothing but only a word “okay” and left.


    Crystal follows her out of the café, doesn’t understand her action. “That’s it?”


    “What else, you want me to fight?” Lily looks at her funnily.


    Crystal is still not satisfied, “You’d never even offended her, she just did it on purpose!”


    “I didn’t even know her, let alone offend her.” Lily says helplessly, “Looks like she just dislike me.”


    The office is a small society, which include various kind of people. Lots of people that you don’t


    recognize might talk behind you.


    But what can we do, there is no better way except ignore it.


    Crystal finally soothes down, aware that after all they are co-workers. “But why did you ask her name?”


    Lily’s eyelid narrows, “Just to scare her.”


    Crystal puzzles, and thenughs, “You are hypocrite.”


    ….


    At three in the afternoon, Carlos calls her to his office, asks her to prepare to meet a client tonight.


    Lily returns and read through all of the case again. Even though she doesn’t memorize it fluently, she is


    familiar overall.


    Before leaving, after hesitating for a while, she decides to tell Rex that she wille homete tonight.


    As to avoid him losing his temper, she will be the one who suffers though.


    However, he doesn’t answer the phone. Lily has tried to call for a few times but still no one answers.


    Thinking that he might busy working, Lily doesn’t bother to call him anymore but leave a message.


    When she is about to keep her phone, a ck Porsche Panamera suddenly stops in front of her. Lily


    peeks to the logo of the car, it undoubtedly is a Porsche.


    This car cost at least eighty-seven thousands, but still, Carlos as a topwyer will definitely able to


    afford it.


    The window lowers, revealing good-looking eyes, “Get in.”


    Lily gets in the car and both of them went together.


    The others party booked a ce in a VIP membership tea house, which is located next to a scenicke


    in an urban area. The environment is superb; Lily had been there before with Tim. The price of each


    tea starts from five digits.


    Half an hourter, the car stops. Carlos unbuckled his seat belt and look aside, “Let’s go!”


    Lily is nervous. “Carlos, what should I say inside?”


    “What do you want to say?”


    “…. I have no idea.”


    Carlos smiles “Calm down. The main purpose is for you to learn something, don’t stress yourself.”


    Lily nods and cheers herself up.


    Carlos unintentionally looks at her burned arm and frowns, “What happen to your arm?”


    Lily doesn’t say much, “I identally burn it. Not a big deal.”


    “Have you put a cream?”


    Lily nods, “Yes.”


    “Be careful next time. Girls don’t look good with scars.”


    She doesn’t expect Carlos would say such a thing, with an awkward smile, she says, “Thank you.”


    After they get out of the car, a waiter from the tea house, who has already waited them, leads them to


    the private room. As soon as the door opened, Lily is stunned by the man sitting inside.


    Apparently, the other party has noticed her. After greeting Carlos, he smiles at Lily and says, “Long


    time no see, Lily.”
