A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 460: Will She Be Afraid?

"I've never seen people eat mango with pepper. Will it taste good?"

Willow rolls her eyes. "This is our specialty snack. Many people long to eat it but have no chance."

Lily tastes a piece of green mango with pepper.

It's really delicious.

Willow originally wants to chat with Lily, but before she can sit down, her husband calls.

After answering the phone, Willow says that she is going to pick up goods with her husband, so she

quickly leaves.

Lily lies lazily in her chair and basks in the sun, occasionally eating a piece of green mango with

pepper.

Unknowingly, she has eaten up a plate of green mangoes, which are even bigger than her face.

"Hello, Ms. Lily!" The stylist comes over with an insulation bucket and says in a meaningful tone, "Not

seeing you go to the restaurant for lunch, Mr. Smith asks me to bring you duck soup."

Lily says with an unnatural expression, "I can't get up early in the morning, so I ask someone to take

my lunch to my room."

Actually, it is because she can't stand them looking at her with curiosity that she doesn't want to go

downstairs.

The stylist replies, "Mr. Smith is worried about you. He even asked us why you didn't come."

Lily becomes more and more uncomfortable. "You can put it here. I'll drink it later."

"I'll put it here and leave."

Only after the stylist leaves, the embarrassment lingering in Lily's heart dissipates.

She looks at the insulation bucket on the table and wants to drink it.

However, she has eaten quite a lot for lunch, and just now she has finished a large plate of green

mangoes. She really can't eat any more.

Seeing Willow's mother-in-law pass by, Lily greets her.

"Mrs. Roth, do you just come back?"

"Yes, Willow wants to eat mango. There is no mango in the restaurant, so I went out to buy two boxes

of them." Willow’s mother-in-law says as she opens the box to take a lot for Lily.

"Thank you. You're so nice." Lily smiles and thanks her.

She remembers that the duck soup is very nutritious, so she hands the insulation bucket to Mrs. Roth."

This is duck soup. Take it back for Willow."

"Drink it yourself. I'll cook it for her tomorrow."

"I'm full. Just give it to her." Lily pushes the insulation bucket back again. "I have gained a lot of weight.

I'm afraid that if I don't eat less, I will be despised by the director when filming."

As she can't refuse, Mrs. Roth accepts it. "Come over for dinner with Mr. Smith."

"No, thank you for your invitation."

"..."

After chatting for a while, Lily dismisses Mrs. Roth's idea of treating them for dinner. She sighs in her

heart that Willow is so lucky for having a husband who loves her and a mother-in-law who is so nice.

She suddenly recalls the sad expression on Scarlett's face when they chatted that day.

Scarlett says that after Louis found out the truth, he treats her coldly. After she moves to the Smith

Mansion, he never comes back, unless Antony looks for him.

Lily thinks that Scarlett has no fault and she hopes that Louis can have a good talk with Scarlett.

However, she only thinks in her mind.

How can she lecture that man?

Lily stays in the garden for a while. The air is sultry and clouds are dense. It seems that it is going to

rain, so she goes back into the house.

When going upstairs, she happens to meet Louis.

Louis goes upstairs side by side with her and casually asks, "Is the duck soup delicious?"

He is afraid that she does not eat lunch so he goes to the kitchen and asks someone to cook it. He

can't send it by himself, so he can only entrust someone else.

Lily can't say that she has given it away, so she answers vaguely.

After arriving at the door, she thinks for a while and grabs a few mangoes from the bag to stuff them

into his arms and says, "Mrs. Roth gave them to me. I can't eat so much by myself."

Then she quickly steps into the room.

Looking at the mangoes in his hand, Louis laughs.

It seems that she really eats enough these days. Otherwise, she would have eaten all by herself and

there will be nothing left for him.

It rains heavily at 5 p.m.

Even with the soundproofing on the window, Lily can still hear the sound of raindrops hitting the glass

window. It's really earthshaking.

She pulls open the curtains and looks out. It is dark outside, and she can only see the light of the dining

room.

It is raining so heavily. No one knows when it will stop.

Lily has eaten too much today so she has no appetite for dinner. When the restaurant calls to ask her

what she wants to eat, she refuses. Then she sends a message to Chandler asking whether he is

alright at home.

Chandler says that this nanny is good at cooking, but he still prefers the food cooked by Lily and his

mother. After a while, he says that as long as it is not cooked by Louis, he can eat anything.

Lily feels it funny.

She thinks that Louis can cook well. Why has he left such a bad impression on Chandler?

Chandler sends another WeChat message. "Lily, my mother has been abroad for a long time and she

hasn't called me."

Lily asks: "Hasn't she sent message either?"

Chandler replies, "Yes, nobody answers each time when I call her. Is something wrong with her?"

Just as Lily is about to reply him, there comes a thunder, which startles her. A sudden darkness

overwhelms her. She is so panicked that she even can't hold her phone.

The phone falls onto the floor and the screen goes black.

As the curtains of the room are closed, Lily can't see anything after the screen goes dark.

She feels scared, afraid that a monster would suddenly come out and devour her. She squats down in

panic and looks for her phone, but she fails.

Thunder comes from the outside one after another, which reflects on the curtain like a dancing ghost.

Lily is so scared that she doesn't dare to look for her phone anymore. She walks slowly towards the

bed with fear.

After touching the edge of the bed, she immediately jumps up to the bed and covers herself with a quilt.

Louis is having a video conference in the room opposite to the one where Lily stays. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Only a few minutes later, there comes thunder outside the window. The entire room suddenly falls into

darkness and there is only the light of the screen shining on the man's face.

The person on the other end of the video is also shocked. "Mr. Smith, is there a power outage?"

"It doesn't matter. The laptop is full and the net is still connected." Louis turns on the flashlight of his

phone and shines it on the documents. He continues his work, not being affected by the power outage

at all. "Go on."

Thunder constantly comes into his ear, disrupting his mind. Then he suddenly thinks of Lily.

The power is cut and there is thunder. Is she alright?

As Louis thinks of this, he becomes worried. He puts down documents and says to the people in the

video conference that it is too late and he will continue the meeting tomorrow. Then he goes out with

his phone.

The room is also very dark. Other than the light from his phone, there is no light source. It seems that

the power in this area has been cut.

Louis walks to Lily's room and knocks hard.

"Lily, are you alright?"

After waiting for a few seconds, he becomes somewhat anxious for hearing no answer. He calls her

and knocks hard on the door.

The phone is turned off!

Countless images flash through Louis' mind. Maybe she is taking a bath when the power is cut and

then she falls to the ground. Her head hits on the bathtub and bleeds.

He becomes even more anxious to ensure her safety.

Louis steps back and lights up the door with the light from phone screen. Then he kicked the door

fiercely.

When the door opens, he quickly walks through the living room to open the bedroom doors while

shouting her name, "Lily, where are you?"

When opening the second door, he finally hears Lily's voice, trembling and somewhat blurry.

"I, I'm here..."

Louis shines his phone flashlight into the room and onto the bed.

He sees her tremble under the light blanket. She is frightened.
