Michael glanced at Lily angrily. âLynnâs father was arrested, and he committed suicide in prison. Her mother also jumped off a building so Lynn has no capital to fight with you anymore. If you didnât do all these so stupidly, you wonât suffer in vain!â
Lily had no idea that things would turn around. When she thought of her behavior today, it was no different from looking for trouble. Suddenly, she extremely regretted what she had done, and she burst into tears.
Michael got her into the car, took her to the hospital to bandage her wound, and said in a low voice, âDo you know who did that to the Quirrel family?â Lily shook her head with a mournful look on her face.
Michael lowered his voice and said through gritted teeth, âItâs Skyler. He can get rid of the Quirrel family quietly so heâs not someone to be messed with. So, you better wise up and donât mess with Jocelyn in the future, otherwise, I wonât be able to save you!â
Thinking of what happened just now at No. 1, North Court, Lily shrank her shoulders in fright and did not dare to say a word. That man was so scary!
Jocelyn sat on the edge of the bed, opened the mirror in the closet, and flipped through the gauze to look at the wound on her neck.
At this moment, Skyler pushed open the door and came in. Jocelyn retreated her hand sharply and tugged at the gauze, accidentally rubbing against the wound. She bared her teeth in pain. Seeing her like this, Skyler laughed a little. âWhat are you doing?â Jocelyn was a little unnatural. âIâm looking at the wound.â
Jocelyn thought that when Skyler heard what she said to Lily, he would definitely ask her about the letter Lily mentioned.
Unfortunately, Skyler did not say a word. He just said, âIf your neck hurts, take some painkillers.â Jocelyn looked at him, neither obsequiously nor superciliously. âThank you for your concern, fortunately, itâs not so painful, so I can bear it.â Skylerâs eyes sank. Was she deliberately keeping a distance from him? His voice was a little cold. âWhatever.â
After he finished speaking, he turned around and went out.
Jocelyn blinked and there was a trace of loss in her eyes that she did not even notice. She comforted herself, but also, he did not care about her affairs at all, so how could he possibly ask about the letter?
She should not have any other thoughts in case Skyler said that she had improper thoughts.
In the afternoon.
Lily finished dressing her wound from the hospital, changed her clothes, and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register with Chad. Although there was gauze on Lilyâs face, Chad still got the marriage certificate with her. However, this could not hide the disgust in Chadâs eyes.
After all, he was willing to marry Lily as there would be a lot of interest for him.
Back then, he wanted to use Lily to get close to Skyler but now, he already got a crucial project from Skyler. Hence, he had to get married.
When the two of them came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau with their marriage certificates, reporters approached them after hearing the news.
After all, Lily, a designer who lost the plagiarism case, had many pitfalls in herself. Now, she got married twice in such a short period so it could be said that she was begging for attention.
In addition to that, the Jones family was not unknown in Mauve City so the nosey people would like this kind of news.
Lily was facing the reporters. Even though her face was disfigured, she was still smiling. However, when she saw Lynn who was full of resentment not far from the Civil Affairs Bureau, her expression froze slightly. She had not forgotten that it was Lynnâs familyâs collapse that made her invincible and married Chad.
Lily was extremely uncomfortable being stared at by Lynn and her eyes sank. Although the Quirrel family was weak, now that she was married to Chad, she could not allow that bastard child in Lynnâs stomach to be born. Although she could not take action against Jocelyn, she could not let Lynn step on her. When she thought about this, Lily had a bad idea forming in her heart.
That night, in a dimly lit alley, seven or eight burly men were pulling a woman who was screaming as hard as she could. It was a pity that it was so remote that no one would notice this happening Even if someone saw it and saw that group of men, they would not dare to be nosey.
The man said, wanting to go again after he got a taste, âAs expected of a rich daughter.â The man next to him joked, âEven if she is, sheâs damaged goods. Youâre so easily satisfied.â âSpeaking of which, Lily is so smart. She knows if she wants to marry into the Jones family, she has to destroyer the Quirrel family from its foundation.â
P3 Lynn froze in shock as she lay on the ground like a rag.
It was Lily. Lily was the one who put her father in jail and made her mother commit suicide!
The manâs discussion was still in her ears.
âAlthough Lily is smart, she is a venomous snake, so stay away from her. We wonât be able to handle this kind of woman.â
âItâs just that, speaking of which, these wealthy and noble kids are so ruthless and unscrupulous. Even if this woman is pregnant with his child, he canât just throw her away.â
âAre you stupid? If he is concerned about her, do you think he will agree with Lilyâs proposal to let us do this to her? If it werenât for this child, she probably wouldnât have to suffer tonight!â
The men got dressed and the voices of the discussion got farther and farther.
