Chapter 51
Casually, Loid took Lillyâs satchel and her hand. His voice was gentle as he asked, âAre you hungry?
He said nothing about what had just happened.
âA little,â Lily answered nonchalantly. It was as if the incident earlier had never occurred.
âLetâs go get some food.â
Liby nodded in silence and followed Lold into the car.
Behind her, lan was completely stunned.
While in the car, Shaun had a lot of questions he was itching to ask Lily. However, he did not know if he should.
The withering looks Lily had given him scared him. It felt as if he was actually becoming dumber with each stupid question he asked.
It was quiet in the ear, and no one spoke. Loid did not ask Lily about the incident earlier either.
the car moved for a while, Lily suddenly looked up at Loid solemnly. âDo you know anyone whoâs on the verge of death or terminally ill?â
Loid raised his brow and replied, âYes.â
Hearing that, Shaun asked curiously. âWhy are you asking
Lily leaned languidly against the car window. She gave an impassive response. âI want to make moneyâ
âMake money?â âShaunâs voice grew louder. âYou have at least a few billion dollars on your black card, donât you? Why do you want to make more?!
Lily slightly lifted her gaze. Her lashes were long, and her clear eyes gave the impression that she could see through a person
The comer of her mouth moved, and she said languidly, âI donât have enough.â
For some reason, Shaun had always found it difficult to look her in the eye. He shifted his gaze, âYou have a net worth of a couple of billion dollars, but you still donât have enough money?â
Lily glanced at him wordlessly.
Shaun fixed her with a quizzical look. âWhat do you need the money for?â
âTo buy stuffâ Lily hung her head. She was not in high spirits, perhaps because of the suited men.
âSo thatâs why.â Shaun pulled out a card from his pocket. âIâve got money. Use this for now.â
Once he finished speaking, he received an icy look. Then, he heard Loidâs cold voice. âDo you think I donât have enough?â
Startled, Shaun smiled sheepishly and put his card away. âIt slipped my mind that sheâs your wife.â
Then, he looked at Lilly and sad, âIf you need money, just tell Loid. Iâm sure he has more than enough!â
Load had personal assets worth over tens of billions of dollars. Shaun assumed Lily wouldnât need too much. He was pretty sure Loid had enough to support her for the rest of her
However, Shaun was proven wrong the next second. He heard Lily ask in an unhurried manner, âDo you have 70 billion dollars?â
After giving it some thought, Lily decided that it would be best for her to prepare more money. That way, even if the price reached tens of billions of dollars during the auction, she would have enough.
shaun was stunned into silence.
He thought, âAre you planning to eat the money? How long will it take for you to finish yo billion dollars?â
Shaun pulled in a deep breath and asked tentatively, âWhat is it thatâs so expensive?â
He felt that being near Lily was bad for his heart. Every time she spoke, she would say something shocking.
Lily pressed two fingers against her temples. âA plant.â
âThe bell?â Shaun was almost certain he had misheard. A plant worth 70 billion dollars was mindblowing
Lold turned his head, giving Lily a sidelong glance. She lacked her edge and appeared listless. Her expression was somewhat glam.
It was rare for Loid to see her worried. His gaze darkened.
He surmised that the plant she mentioned was not typical.
