Chapter 483: It's Too Late to Hide
Valentina walks even faster and quickly leaves the detention cell.
Amanda is looking at them during this period and is dumbfounded, "Ms. Lily, you are too powerful! Look
at Ms. Hester, she is pissed off."
Lily snorts coldly, "She messes around with me first. I just fight back."
Everyone can play tricks!
Amanda nods and her gaze falls on Lily's belly.
"Ms. Lily, have you really dated Mr. Smith?" Amanda can't help but ask, "This child..."
"No." Lily clenches her hands tightly, but her face remains calm, "I just said that because I wanted to
embarrass Valentina. I have never dated Mr. Smith, and the child is not his."
"Is it Mr. John's?"
After a moment of silence, Lily finally says yes.
"No wonder Mr. John is so worried about you. I see." Amanda finally understands.
At the same time, Amanda also sighs, "Previously, I saw that Ms. Lily and Mr. Smith were so close, and
she would occasionally deliver food to Mr. Smith. I thought that their gossip was true."
Lily's eyes darken, and she quickly smiles faintly, "Who hasn't been gossiped if she was too close to
Mr. Smith? Previously, there was a rumor that Mr. Smith was having an affair with David!"
"Yes, yes! I've seen it before. It made me believe that Mr. Smith was bisexual..."
The topic suddenly goes sideways.
Amanda is very interested in gossip and can't stop talking.
Occasionally, Lily would say a few things. Her gaze falls on the door of the detention room. She
remembers the conversation with Valentina and suddenly feels uncomfortable.
Will they ... get married?
Valentina is so enraged by Lily that her face darkens when she leaves the police station.
Just as she is about to stop a car on the roadside, a young woman stops her.
"Ms. Hester."
Valentina looks at the person and frowns slightly, "You are not from the Smith Group."
"But I am. I'm the manager of R Department, and my name is Sofia Jones." Sofia takes the initiative to
introduce herself and asks with a smile, "Ms. Hester, are you free? I want to talk to you about
something."
Seeing Valentina's displeasure, as if she doesn't want to talk to her, Sofia adds, "It's about Lily."
Valentina becomes even more impatient, "Then go in and find her!"
"Ms. Hester." Sofia blocks her way, "I don't think you know that Lily is pregnant."
...
Ten minutes later, the two arrive at a coffee shop.
As soon as they sit down, Valentina asks Sofia, "What did you mean by that?"
Seeing that Sofia doesn't answer her, Valentina seems to think of something.
She frowns and leans back into her chair, saying lazily, "If you want to make her unhappy, do it
yourself. Leave me alone. I won't do anything to an innocent child."
Sofia takes out a file from her bag and gives it to Valentina, "Ms. Hester, take a look first."
"What?" Valentina takes the file and opens it.
It turns out to be a pregnancy test. She throws it on the desk and says unhappily, "She's pregnant with
triplets. Do you want me to congratulate her?"
"The key point is not the triplets. Don't you want to know who the father is?"
"What do you mean?"
Sofia opens the file and points at the number of weeks she has been pregnant. Then she pulls out a
schedule on her phone, "This is the personal schedule of Mr. Smith, and the company doesn't keep it in
records."
...
Valentina picks up her phone and checks Louis' personal schedule in late December last year. A few
days before Christmas, Louis went to Country R.
She looks at the pregnancy test report and realizes that Lily was pregnant in late December last year.
In an instant, Valentina's expression changes.
Sofia looks at her face and says calmly, "They spent Christmas there, and Lily was pregnant..." Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Previously, Sofia also thought that the child in Lily's belly was John's.
Then she followed Lily to the hospital, bribed her doctor, got the pregnancy test and found that
something was wrong, but she did not tell her boss about it.
Sofia took the chance of David's absence to look through his computer and see Louis' personal
schedule. Louis had been in Country R, and Lily had also gone to Country R during those few days.
As she had suspected before, the child in Lily's belly was Louis'.
Valentina closes the document, "So what?"
In just a dozen seconds, her expression turns calm and composed again. Her emotional management
impresses Sofia deeply.
Sofia thinks that her plan fails and quietly says, "She is pregnant with Mr. Smith's child. If it goes public,
what damage will it do to your reputation?"
"If Louis really cares about her, would he not even know that she is pregnant for so long?" Valentina
leans back in her chair. "He knows, he just doesn't want it."
"What if Lily is angry with Mr. Smith and intentionally tells him that this child belongs to another man?"
Valentina frowns.
Sofia glances at her and curls her lips as she continues, "Ms. Hester, you don't know Mr. Smith well
enough. If he really loves a woman, he will hide her instead of going public."
"He and Lily have so much history. Only he knows whether he cares about her."
"I have said so much, but as a woman, I feel sorry for you, Ms. Hester." Valentina says, "I'm afraid that
Mr. Smith is using you to make Lily jealous."
Valentina says coldly, "That woman is not worthy of being compared to me!"
"It's not up to you to decide whether she is worthy or not. It's up to Mr. Smith." Sofia smiles faintly.
...
Seeing that her goal has been achieved, Sofia is about to leave.
Before she leaves, she bends down and whispers to Valentina, "Ms. Hester, don't underestimate Lily.
Other than family background, you are not better than her in any way."
Valentina is still sitting in the chair, motionless after Sofia leaves. She stares at the file on the table.
...
On the day of the court session, Lily hasn't got the phone call.
When the staff enters the detention room, she is ready to go to court.
Unexpectedly, one of the staff opens the door and says calmly, "Willow has dropped the case. You can
go back now."
"Drop the case?" Lily thinks she heard wrongly, "Are you sure?"
The staff is very impatient, "Yeah, if you don't want to leave, you can stay inside!"
Lily is very angry at his attitude, but she endures it.
After leaving, she calls her assistant, Ella, to bail Amanda out.
Amanda was arrested for drunk driving.
She has already been detained for ten days. After someone paid the bail money and signed the
documents, she is free to go.
After leaving the police station, the assistant asks, "President Lily, do you want to go home and change
first?"
"I'm fine. Let's go to the company first. There are too many things to deal with." After saying that, Lily
turns around and asks Amanda, "Should I ask the assistant to send you back?"
Amanda refuses, "Ms. Lily, you can just go. I'll take a taxi back."
"Then be safe." Lily thanks her again, "Thank you for staying in the detention cell with me for so long.
When I finish my work, I'll treat you to dinner."
