Chapter 230 A Jerk
Chapter 230 A Jerk
"Okay, let's go out. I'll call you if anything happens." Said Noble to manager.
When he came to his senses, manager looked around calmly, suppressed the messy doubts in his heart, and then walked out of the suite respectfully.
"Let's have breakfast." Eric said. Then he picked up Lily and walked towards the dining table.
Ellison, on the other hand, stood up and walked towards them, as if he was in a fit of pique.
On the other hand, Noble was fine. Instead of walking over directly, he stood up and asked Anna, "Do you need my help?"
"No, thanks." Anna refused without hesitation. She glanced at him, struggled to stand up and walked towards the table.
After all, she was a kung fu master. Her body was better than ordinary people. At least she had the strength to walk by herself. When Lily woke up, she didn't even have the strength to sit up.
Seeing her refuse him like this, Noble frowned imperceptibly. He had never been refused so ruthlessly before. This might be the first time.
However, he didn't turn around and leave. Instead, he walked behind her, in case she fell to the ground. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
On the table, Eric sat next to Lily, because he had to take care of her. Subconsciously, Noble chose the seat where Anna chose, while Ellison sat alone.
Lily didn't think there was anything wrong with this situation. She enjoyed Eric's service naturally. She ate whatever he fed, and she didn't bother to eat by herself.
To be honest, she was really hungry. But fortunately, she didn't catch a cold after getting wet for a long time yesterday, and now she had a good appetite.
"Lily..." Just as Lily was having her breakfast happily under the care of Eric, Ellison broke the harmony. "Thank you yesterday, and thank Anna."
After saying that, he gave a grateful look at Anna.
Hearing this, Lily and Anna were stunned. They looked at each other and then looked at Ellison. They asked in one voice, "For what?"
"In order to protect Hailey, you distracted the attention of those two people. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been in danger, and Hailey wouldn't have been safe. It's just that it's easy to get drunk."
Ellison explained. Although he was angry with Hailey, he still treated her as his own woman. That was why he thanked the two for her, Lily and Anna.
Hearing this, Anna was confused. What happened yesterday had nothing to do with Hailey. Why did he say thank you here?
She looked at Ellison doubtfully, and then turned to look at Lily, who happened to be looking at her at this time. The two people's eyes met in the air, and then looked away.
"Ahem..." Lily coughed awkwardly. She looked a little embarrassed. She probably knew why Ellison thanked them.
"Well, brother, I want to explain this to you. I lied to you on the phone. No one was against Hailey at that time."
"What?" Ellison was confused and looked at Lily, waiting for her to continue.
Hearing her words, both Noble and Eric stopped what they were doing and looked at Lily in confusion.
"Actually, it was my idea to bring Hailey here for a drink yesterday." Lily continued, staring at Ellison and observing his expression.
"There is always a person in Hailey's heart, but that person doesn't seem to have any interest in her. Moreover, he tried to get rid of her again and again, which caused her to be very painful. Therefore, she chose to stay away from him, but it seems that it is useless to stay away from him..."
Lily said slowly on purpose, and she could clearly see the change of Ellison's face. His usual expression had been replaced by gloom, which meant that he still cared about the person in Hailey's heart.
"So I told her that getting drunk was the best way to relieve her worries. When she woke up, she forgot everything and started her own life again. Just in case, I called Anna. She is good at fighting. If we meet a bad guy, she can beat him."
She said with a naughty smile.
"Then what's going on behind?" Ellison almost blurted it out. If she was lying to him on the phone, then why did someone really harm them later?
Not to mention him, Noble and Eric were confused by her words, including Anna. She came to DC with Lily, but she also didn't know anything.
"Hmm..." Lily blinked her eyes and said innocently, "Maybe it's because I lied to you, so I was really surrounded by two people. With my intelligence, I called Anna out. It was not a problem for her to beat them half to death with her fighting skills, but they used a trick, and then we were hit, But fortunately, nothing serious happened between us."
Hearing this, Ellison already knew what was going on, but he didn't understand why she called him!
"Then why did you lie to me?" He asked.
Lily smiled and didn't answer his question. She turned to Anna and asked, "Anna, where is the recorder?"
Hearing this, Anna frowned. She thought for a moment and answered, "It seems that it was left in the previous room. I was too busy to save you to care about the recorder."
After saying that, she turned to look at Noble. "This is your territory. You should be able to find it out, right?"
"Okay." After taking a look at Anna, he dialed a number. Apparently, he was calling manager. He told him to find the recorder pen in the private room they were in before hanging up.
Seeing him on the phone, Anna looked away and looked at Ellison. She said coldly, "You are really a jerk."
"I..." Being stunned by her words, Ellison was confused for a while. "The whole thing has nothing to do with me from the beginning to the end. Why am I a jerk?"
He had been unhappy about the fact that there was a person in Hailey's heart, and now hearing what Anna said, he was unhappy.
Besides, how did he offend Anna?
"Humph!" Anna snorted and glanced at him with disdain. She looked away from him and continued to eat breakfast calmly. She had been hungry since yesterday.
Among the three men, only Eric looked better. At least, he loved Lily wholeheartedly. And from what Hailey said when she was drunk yesterday, Ellison was just a scumbag. She really didn't know why she would fall in love with such a scumbag.
As for Noble, she thought he was a good man, but yesterday he saw something he shouldn't have seen on her body. Although it was for her own good, he shouldn't have seen it!
So now, she had a bad impression of him.
"You!" Seeing her like this, Ellison really wanted to punch her, but he gritted his teeth and endured it. He really couldn't do anything to a little girl.
"Brother, don't be angry." Seeing this, Lily said, "When you find the recorder, you will know why Anna said you were a jerk. If I wasn't afraid of you getting angry, I would like to scold you, because you are really a jerk."
As a man, he fooled around with women all day long and rolled among a group of women. Wasn't he a jerk?
This time, Ellison really wanted to overturn the table. He became the target of attack again!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Everyone turned their eyes and saw manager coming in with a recorder pen.
He stood beside Noble and handed it to him. "Mr. Noble, we found it in Miss Lily's room yesterday."
"Okay." With a slight reply, he raised his chin towards Ellison and said, "Leave it to him."
"Yes, sir." He turned around, handed the recorder pen to Ellison and said respectfully, "Mr. Ellison."
Ellison didn't look well, but he still took the recorder, because he also wanted to know what was in it that made them attack him like this.
After completing the task, he turned around and left.
As soon as he got the recorder pen, Ellison turned it on, but he was stopped by Lily. "Brother, you'd better go home first. It's not good to listen to it in front of so many people. After listening to it, I hope you can reflect on yourself. Some people, some things, once they are wrong, will be a lifetime. We recorded it when Hailey was not paying attention. I just hope you can figure it out and give her an explanation."
Ellison paused and looked at Lily in confusion. "What do you mean by that?"
"You will know when you go back and listen to the recording." Lily didn't make it clear.
"Brother, I also think this recording is suitable for you to listen alone." Said Eric, who had been holding Lily in his arms.
Now that things had come to this, everyone except Ellison could guess what was going on.
It was likely that Hailey said some truth after drinking. Yesterday, Lily deliberately set up a trap, asking Ellison to pick up Hailey and give the recorder to him by the way.
But she didn't expect that something happened later. Two people came to make trouble. Fortunately, everyone was fine, and the two people also received their deserved punishment.
Well, but the punishment was a little heavy.
