"Hey... are you there? Lily?" Zhuo Jingren furrowed his brows when it was silent on the other end of the line. "I’m sorry... what did you say? I uh... got distracted," she said. "I said, if you find that don’t like the current design of the penthouse, we can always make some renovations. Feel free to tell me any changes you want to make or anything you want me to get for the house," he said. "Oh... Alright, I will remember that," Lily nodded. "Okay, I have a meeting in five minutes. I will…

Yang Mi bit her lips as she stared at President Qin before lowering her head. After Liam left, Lily had remained inside the meeting room. When Yang Mi came in to check on her boss, she saw that her boss was just staring blankly at the wall ahead of her. Then Lily closed her eyes and started massaging her temples. Yang Mi knew all too well that this was a sign that Lily was deep in her thoughts and for some reason, she was anxious. Yang Mi was almost sure - no, she was a hundred percent sure that…

"Very true." Lily nodded. "In this part of the world, women are considered a little less than men." "Glad that you agree with me." "However, I am not one of those women Liam." Lily’s face turned serious as she crossed her arms in front of her. As someone who was bullied, underestimated, schemed against, women empowerment was a very sensitive issue for Lily. Women empowerment was something that she strongly supported in the west. However, the women in the east were really not as empowered as the…

"Miss Qin, this comparison is a little unfair though," a man with a fox like eyes said. "South America’s economy is not like ours. The competition is different. I don’t think this is a good example. In my opinion, we still need to study the area further before deciding whether it would be profitable to develop a residential area." "True. Which is why, I already made a study about this. Please check the file..." "With all due respect President Qin, I believe this is a very big project for you.…

While Lily had started her day bright and cheery, the same can’t be said of the Qin family. Lawyer Yan just informed Qin Mo that Qin Jinghua had just gotten married and now owns fifty percent of Old Man Qin’s properties in mainland China. This made Qin Mo so angry that he smashed some of his favorite bottles of alcohol in his study, some of them were rather expensive too. The thing that made Qin Mo fume in anger even more was the fact that the Lawyer Yan wouldn’t even tell him the identity of…

June 21st, Tuesday - 7th day Lily woke up with a splitting headache. She immediately clutched her head before snuggling deeper into Zhuo Jingren’s arms. True to his words, Zhuo Jingren didn’t do anything to her last night. He merely hugged her to sleep after he was done giving Lily a head massage. In fact, Lily was so tired that she actually fell asleep while Zhuo Jingren was giving her a head massage. His techniques were too good ah. Zhuo Jingren’s assurance last night was very much needed.…

Lily turned her head to look at Zhuo Jingren only to realize that their faces were a mere inch apart. Lily swallowed hard. She couldn’t see any pores on this man’s flawless skin ah. "Are you done drinking?" she immediately asked, almost blushing. She couldn’t let her thoughts run wild, not when they are still in public at least. Zhuo Jingren gestured for her to look at Fernando who was already knocked out. "I won the bet," he said cooly, his gaze lingered on Lily’s side profile. "What bet?"…

"I am not sure why Fernando would ask Escort Zhuo to participate in a drinking contest." Li Shanshan tried to put on a serious face but the mirth in her eyes were too obvious. Lily and Zhuo Jingren went to join the others after their discussion with Mr. Martin was over. "Yeah... right." Lily rolled her eyes while watching as Zhuo Jingren downed another glass of alcohol. His ears were turning red. It seemed as though Zhuo Jingren and Fernando were having a serious conversation. Lily and Li Shanshan…

Meanwhile, Xuan Hui was back in his office. After being forcibly chased out of Highlights, Xuan Hui was feeling angry and he didn’t want to return home when he was in such a foul mood. The first thing he did when he arrived in the office was to get himself a glass of whisky. He really needed another drink. He opened his laptop and began to research about Lily Facci-Qin. It wasn’t long before his laptop screen was littered with numerous articles about Lily, the talk shows she participated before,…

The slap was loud and packed with enough force to make Xuan Hui stagger backward. Disbelief was written all over his face. "You-" "That slap was long overdue. It is for trying to kick me out of this place," Lily said coldly. ’Pa’ Lily gave Xuan Hui another slap on the other side of his cheek. "That one is for the bruise that your grip will cause me," Lily said while straightening her back before giving Xuan Hui a smile as if nothing had happened. "If you still want to talk then feel free…
