A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 327: Where Will He Be?

Lily takes a deep breath and tells herself to hold on.

She takes off her high heels, and the skin on her heels almost sticks to them. When she takes them off,

she almost tears her skin, and she frowns in pain. However, she only purses her lips and does not cry

out.

She has been wandering around Yorkshire for more than ten hours, and has searched everywhere.

There's no sign of that man anywhere she went.

Where will he be?

A young man passing by sees Lily's awkwardness and is sympathetic of her. He comes to her and

hands her a packet of wet tissue. "I don't know what happened to you, take it if you need it."

Lily feels her face is a little dry. She recalls that she put on makeup when she went out in the morning

and she cried for a day. She reckons that her makeup has been messed.

She takes the wet tissue and says in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."

Lily sees a bouquet of green roses in the young man's hand, and it is emitting faint fragrance. She is

somewhat astounded.

"The green rose is so beautiful."

"Yeah, but there are very few places to buy it. The green roses in Yorkshire are all produced in Hanchi."

The young man is complaining, but he is joyous. "My girlfriend likes green roses very much. Today is

her birthday. I bought them online and received them a day later!"

Lily's eyes narrow slightly. "There are many green roses in Hanchi?"

The youth asks doubtfully, "Don't you know? The soil in Hanchi is moist and is ideal to grow this kind of

delicate flower. I remember that Hanchi also designates the day when the green roses bloom as the

local Valentine's Day."

Valentine's Day?

Lily thinks of the time when she went to Hanchi with John and met a couple on the subway.

The couple told her that today was a big festival in Hanchi. The girl gave her pink candy and said that

John had to think of a way to get the green rose.

It turns out that that day is Hanchi's local Valentine's Day.

Lily's breathing gets heavier and heavier. "Do you know that Valentine's Day? Can you be more

specific?" She asks.

The young man says, "The boy will take the green rose and when he meets the girl he likes, he will ask

for her opinion on whether or not to date, if the girl says yes, which indicates that she can go out with

him and she will give him rabbit candy. Then, the girl gives the rabbit candy to the boy and the same

procedure is repeated. Every year, this festival matches tens of thousands of couples and has been on

the local news."

No wonder John was so happy when he asked her for the pink rabbit candy.

So he knows.

This stupid man! Dumb man!

Who does he think he is affecting? He is just deceiving himself!

Lily curses in her heart and covers her mouth tightly, not wanting others to laugh at her, but her tears

flow out uncontrollably and her shoulders tremble violently.

Hanchi! Hanchi!

Lily suddenly remembers that John once took her to a manor in Hanchi and said that he bought it and

that he wanted to live there.

Will he be in that manor?

Seeing her cry suddenly, the young man panics. "Hey, hey, are you alright? Did I remind you of

something sad? I'm sorry."

"I'm fine, thank you." Lily wipes away her tears and thanks him.

If she didn't see the green rose in the young man's hand, she wouldn't have recalled that she has been

to Hanchi.

Lily thanks again and again and stops a taxi to the airport.

She calls David, "David, call airlines at the airport to see which one can provide private services. I must

leave when I get to the airport."

"What?" David can't digest it for a moment. "Madam, where are you going?"

"To deal with some business. Arrange it for me as soon as possible, please." Lily clutches the phone

tightly and pleads, "As much money as you like."

David realizes that the matter is very serious and says, "I'll do it now. Domestic or international?"

"Domestic, to Hanchi."

"Wait a minute!"

After Lily arrives at the airport in a hurry, David calls to tell her that the arrangements have been made.

She goes straight to the check-in area of the airline that David mentioned and tells the administrator

her name. Soon, she is led to the apron and boards a small plane.

Late at night, the plane arrives at Hanchi Airport.

After the taxi leaves the parking lot in the airport, Lily finds that it is raining heavily in Hanchi. The air is

cold and humid, and the windows of the taxi are being hit by the raindrop. It is misty.

She takes out her phone and searches through the names of the roads in her memory. She finds them

shortly after.

Half an hour later, when the taxi arrives at the destination, Lily gets off the car and looks at the manor

under street lamps. The garden that is planted with camellias is now bare, and the manor looks lifeless.

Why is it like this? What happened?

Lily is so anxious that she cares about nothing and rushes into the manor in the heavy rain. When she

arrives at the house, she is soaked.

She wants to ring the doorbell, but finds that the door is unlocked. She pushes it open and coldness

hits her face. Her fingers tremble from the cold but she walks in.

The room is dark and cold, and no one wants to stay for another second.

Lily turns on the flashlight on her mobile phone and searches the room. She shouts, "John."

But only her breathing and footsteps are heard.

"John, are you right? Let me see you..." Her voice chokes. "I'm sorry... come out and meet me."

She searches carefully in the room, but cannot find the man.

Lily searches for a day, and she is exhausted but can't find him. She can't help but think pessimistically,

maybe he hides himself in a sealed space and doesn't want anyone to find him.

When she comes out of the house, she suddenly remembers that there is a small attic behind the

manor. She runs to the back of the manor and sees the spiral stairs washed by the rain.

She grabs the handrail and walks up step by step. When she reaches the door, she pushes it, and it This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

opens.

The light from flashlight illuminates the small attic. Lily can see that the attic is very small. A bed is next

to the floor-to-ceiling window, and a figure can be faintly seen on the bed.

She resists the urge to shed tears and walks in quietly.

Arriving at the bed, she sees John curled up with his back facing the door. The bandages on his body

are almost dyed red with blood, and there is a faint smell of blood in the air.

He's fine. He's breathing smoothly.

After confirming his safety, Lily sits down beside the bed and shakes his hand. The man's body is very

cold. "Sorry, I'm late... Why didn't you tell me those things...?"

John does not say anything. The only sound in the attic is their breathing.

Lily's eyes turn sore and her voice chokes, "Please, say something, anything is fine... I'm very worried

about you."

She has been looking for him all day and is on the verge of going mad.

After a long time, John whispers, "My mother is not dead. I saw her... She looked at me with a hateful

gaze and told me to die."

"She doesn't like camellias, and she didn't write to me. It's all a dream that my father created for me."

"She hates me. She wants me to die."

"What do you think my purpose of living is? Isn't it better if I die?" His voice is calm and lifeless,

depressing her.

"No, she gives you a life, but how you live it is up to you. You live for yourself." Lily bursts into tears and

hugs him.
