Chapter 148 Didn’t Behave Himself
Louis gives Leigh a cold look. "Lily is my subordinate. She's being bullied, so it's like I'm being punched
in the face. Shouldn’t I back her up? What are you gossiping about?"
"Who in the Smith Group other than the board of directors isn't your subordinate?" Leigh grins, "I don't
see anyone being bullied, and you've been there to help!"
Louis grabs a handful of popcorn and stuffs it in his mouth. "Shut up. Go get Smollett later, okay?"
Leigh, whose mouth is blocked, nods.
Justin shakes his head and says regrettably, "Heller has worked with Louis many times before, but this
time he is confused about Louis's ideas. This is a chance in a hundred years, but he doesn’t accept it."
"It is because our plan is perfect. There is no flaw." Leigh swallows the popcorn reluctantly. "If I haven't
been a part of this, I'd have thought the Smith Group is going to fall through."
Justin glances at Louis and smiles gently. "Now I can understand the saying in the book, ‘A man would
bristle for his lover’.'"
"Me, too." Leigh grins, "I really thought Louis isn't interested in women, thinking that if he still couldn’t
fine his true love, I'd do an operation. However, it turns out that he hasn’t met the one he is fond of.”
"You can have an operation now. I need a woman."
"Are you serious, Justin?"
Justin keeps his smile on his face. "Or I could do it for you, you know I am a doctor."
"I can't believe you've been coveted me." Leigh pretends to look shock and rubs at Daniel. "I won't love
you. Forget about it!"
Everything can be talked about in the brothers' party, which is warm and lively. Both Daniel and Louis
have relaxed smiles on their faces.
After playing for a while, Leigh sighs, "Yorkshire is not big, but why I can’t meet the girl saw in the
hospital that day. I have been hanging around the hospital gate every day."
Louis sips the tea. "Love at first sight again?" he asks.
"The ninety-eighth time." Justin adds, showing disgust to Leigh. "I don't think you should waste that
girl’s time. She looks young and probably underage."
"What does it matter? I can wait for her!" Leigh sits up straight. "I am serious this time. When I bumped
into her eyes, I have the idea of marrying her."
There is no sound in the room for a moment. Several pairs of eyes look at Leigh, with a look of "you're
out of your mind".
"Shit, I am serious. What do you mean by that look?" Leigh grumbles.
Justin sneers, "That's what you said when you met someone you fell in love at first sight. If you’re
serious, the times you get married would have broken the Guinness World Records."
"But it feels different this time." Leigh wants to explain, but he can't describe how does it feel like, so he
nudges Louis, "Louis, you're getting married, right? You must know how it feels like better than I do."
Daniel, who keeps silent, suddenly grabs hard his glass.
He is so strong that countless cracks appear on the glass without anyone else noticing.
"Stella and I are just partners." Louis leans back lazily in his wheelchair and says with a smile, "If I
marry her, the Smith family will be less wary of me and she can use my reputation to get shares from
President Scott."
Justin's eyes glint. "I've been watching the news since I came back, and I know Miss Stella is very
capable, but because of her identity, she has no real power in the Scott family."
"There's no way out. She's illegitimate." Leigh shrugs. "If her dad could come clean about her mother
being his second wife, Stella wouldn’t have to deal with all those gossips."
Justin smiles. "Mr. Scott is fierce only in the business, but he is afraid of his wife. Even though he has
said a lot of good words when he brought Stella back, Mrs. Scott is still not satisfied. She permits Stella
to share the surname of Scott, but she doesn’t allow Stella to enter the company, saying she is just her
adopted daughter.”
Leigh tuts. "Poor Miss Stella."
Louis drinks his tea, listens to them speaking. At first, he feels bored, but then he feels something
strange. "After I marry her," he says calmly, "she won't be miserable."
"Wow, Louis, do you really want to marry her?" Leigh gasps, "Don't you say it's just a cooperation?"
"Yeah, but she doesn’t have anyone she loves, neither do I. It's better for us to get married. With the
Smith Group, she doesn't have to live so humbly in the Scott family."
"Louis, will you pat your chest and say that again?" Leigh takes out his phone and shakes it at him,
smiling vaguely, "You kissed Miss Lily in the bathroom. Don't say it is an impulse."
Louis's face gets gloomy. "Leigh, you're getting hateful."
"You are deceiving yourself, Louis." Leigh says boldly, but moves away from Louis, “Or does Louis
want to have both?"
"I saw a joke before." Justin looks at Louis and says, with interest, "If you look up at a woman and can't
stop kissing her within ten seconds, you have fallen in love with her."
"How many seconds did you look at Miss Lily? Besides, you said you are just having a cooperation with
Miss Stella, but you seem to like Miss Stella. Did you have sex with her?"
Just as Justin finishes the words, there is a cracking sound next to him.
Several people look over and see that Daniel’s glass in his hand is broken. The sharp glass fragments
cut into his palm, and the blood drips down, but he looks indifferent. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Leigh wails, handing Daniel a tissue. "My god," he says, "I brought this custom-made cup for you. Why
did you break it? Shit! It costs thirteen thousand!"
Justin laughs and asks, "What are you thinking about that makes you lose control of your strength?"
"No, the glass is too thin. It crumbles when I pinch it." Daniel is cold and his eyes are unruffled.
"How can it be! It's too precious to be broken." Leigh picks one up and tries to break it. He tries all his
strength, but there is not a crack in the glass.
Leigh catches his breath, then says firmly, "Dude, you must have been thinking about your Hunting
Goddess before you made the mistake of crushing your goblet."
Louis asks, "What Hunting Goddess?"
"There are letters on the inside of his finger where he wears the ring!" Leigh points at Daniel's finger
and says with a bad smile, "Louis, you know, Daniel used to stay in a special force with strict
regulations, but he has a string of English letters tattooed on his finger. It's a man with a story."
"How haven’t I heard about that, Daniel?" Louis asks Daniel with a smile.
"It's just an English name, nothing special." Daniel gets up from the couch. "You have fun. I have to go
home for some business."
"Then ask Leigh to get a manager to drive you home." says Justin.
"No, someone will pick me up." Daniel leaves straight away.
At the door, Daniel turns to Louis and says, "Miss Stella is really nice, Louis. Call me if you need any
help."
