Chapter 609 Talk to her
Lily couldn’t extricate herself with a smile, she held back her smile and assured him, “Yes, husband, I
will control my legs!”
Louis, “...” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
With Louis’s guidance, Lily went to the company to have a meeting with the team and re-formulated the
plan for HX acquisition.
The exposing of HX artist scandals and slandering on HX had caused their stock price to continue to
fall. They’ve deliberately turned a blind eye to several invitations from HX’s boss and showed that they
had no intention to acquire them. A month later,HX boss finally couldn’t withstand it so he called Lily
again and told her on the phone of the purchase price, which was much lower than the price Lily
wanted to buy previously.
Lily knew that if she forced the opponent too much, he would back off. So she agreed to his terms and
brought the team to meet with boss from HX.
After an hour of detailed discussion, HS Company successfully acquired HX.
Within this month, Lily’s team had already formulated a plan to whitewash HX after acquiring them.
Three weeks later, all the negative news about HX artists and the fraudulent financial reports were
suppressed.
Lily had personally asked Levi to have dinner and handed him a contract with an unfilled amount. After
chatting for an hour, Levi signed the contract and returned to the HX again.
HX underwent a reshuffling. The management changed, and the new president did not spare any effort
to bring resources for HX to generate money.
The staff created momentum for the works that HX had bought and boasted about them everywhere.
They asked editors for clips for promotion purposes and to gain popularity. HX then came forward to
talk to various companies to sell their works at high prices to make a fortune.
After negotiating for three works, Lily listened to the management's advice and stayed in the company.
She first recruited high-quality artists and then found reputable directors to see those works and used
them to talk to investors.
It was fortunate for HX. Khalid Ward, a male artist that they recently signed, had a supporting role in a
TV series. Due to his excellent appearance, HX packaged him up and edited his video. In just a few
months, Khalid popularity exploded.
Lily ran around every day. After she finishes a meeting in this company, she will go to another
company, and it happened continuously. Sometimes she would go abroad for business trips. She was
so tired that she didn’t even have time to call Louis.
With HX expanding and the finances are rolling in, Lily felt that the fatigue was worth it.
Lily just came back to Yorkshire from a business trip. She hasn’t been with Louis and the children for a
long time. She wanted to take a few days off when Justin called.
“Lily.” Justin said, “Sofia is about to give birth.”
“I’ll go over now.” Lily hung up the phone, told the driver the address, and went to the place where Sofia
was being held.
When Lily arrived, Justin came out to pick her up and said that Sofia couldn’t give birth smoothly. She
was undergoing a cesarean section. When the child was taken out, her life would come to an end.
Lily didn’t say anything and waited with him.
An hour later, Sofia finished her cesarean section. The nurse came out with the child in her arms. The
girl was very healthy.
“I want to talk to her.” Lily moved her gaze away from the child and said to Justin, “Give me five
minutes.”
Justin nodded and quickly left.
Lily went into the delivery room and saw Sofia still lying on the operating table, drenched in sweat and
had pale cheeks. Although she had an epidural, her hands were still handcuffed to the edge of the
operating table to prevent her from escaping.
Lily stood still by the operating table and looked at her indifferently, “You know that David loves you, yet
you want him to take the blame for you. You can still stop in time. Won’t it be good to be with him?”
Sofia barely opened her eyes.
When she saw Lily, a mocking smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, “Lily, you have never
experienced the life I have lived, so don’t just comment on what I think and what I have done.”
Lily didn’t say much, “Before he got out of prison, the child will be raised in the Smith family.”
“Do you think I will be grateful to you for doing this!” Sofia suddenly became furious and wanted to get
up from the operating table.
However, she was unable to move as she had just undergone surgery, and her hands were
handcuffed.
She stared at Lily, her eyes oozed with unwillingness and hatred, “I am so smart and beautiful, I didn’t
expect to lose to you! You’re really blessed with good luck all the time!”
Lily’s starting point was not as good as hers, but she had everything, there was also someone to guide
her. If she wanted anything, she would have to earn it by herself and risk it all to climb up!
“Of course, you will lose. You are selfish and inhumane.” Lily said calmly, “To achieve your goal, you
could even use the people around you regardless of what it takes. Who will love you?”
Sofia laughed twice, “Who wouldn’t be selfish living in this world? Who has never fended for himself? I
didn’t make David love me, and he wanted to take the blame for me on his own accord!”
“If I was smarter, I would have done it directly on you without considering anything!” She said bitterly,
“But I just wanted to torture you, I was too soft-hearted.”
At that time, after resolving Lily, she could still make a full retreat. Regardless of how powerful Louis
was, he wouldn’t be able to find her.
The mistake was that she didn’t think about it and turned to settle scores with Jessie and Stella.
Lily glanced at her watch, saw the time, turned, and left.
It just so happened that Justin came in with an injection in his hand, “Are you done?”
“Yes.”
When Lily left the room, she heard Sofia’s cursing.
She probably realized what Justin had in his hand, and her scolding turned into a bitter plea and no
longer had the feisty temper when she talked to Lily earlier.
Lily turned her head and saw Justin forcibly hold Sofia’s hand and inject her with a medical solution.
“You kept saying that no one loves you, but you pushed the person you love into the abyss with your
own hands.” She stared at the woman on the hospital bed, her eyes became indifferent, “I hope David
won’t meet another woman like you.”
--
Lily took the child back to South Mount Villa.
It happened that Yuna was also there. When she saw that Lily had brought back a child, she was
stunned, “This child is...”
“David’s.” Lily handed the child to the nanny, and said to Yuna, “I went to see Sofia, she is dead.”
Lily told Yuna about all the things that had happened.
Yuna also nodded when she heard about it, “That child is beautiful, but she is too cruel. It’s a pity that
David fell in love with such a woman. It’s okay if she dies, lest the child is led astray by such a mother.”
“Grandpa is in good health.” Lily took off her coat and hung it on the hanger, “I haven’t seen my
grandfather for a long time. Why don’t I go back with you and have dinner there?”
“You just came back from a business trip. Don’t you want to take a break, it will be the same if you go
back tomorrow.”
“It’s okay.”
Lily went upstairs to change clothes. As soon as she was about to bring the children to the Smith
Mansion, the phone rang.
“Ms. Lily, are you back today?” It was Levi, the artist management director of HX, who called. “Forest
Moonlightthat our company produced has been finalized. There happen to be a celebration banquet at
MX Restaurant. Several investors will be coming. I wanted to ask if you are free to come over for a
meal.”
Lily knew that Levi had great capabilities. Unless it was important, he usually didn’t bother her. This
time, several big investors in the production had attended. He wanted her to meet them and greet them
with some formalities.
After weighing her decision, Lily responded, “Okay, I’ll be there in about an hour.”
“I won’t be able to eat tonight.” Lily turned and said to Yuna, “I’ve got to attend to celebration banquet.
Mom, I will accompany you and the children to the Smith Mansion first. I’ll try to go back as early as
possible at night.”
