Chapter 419: Find a Better Father for the Baby!
Lily is speechless, "He can just not cooperate with me. Why does he always defriend people?"
Lily is really annoyed.
It's just a breakup. Is there a need to not sell oranges to her?
Ella shrugs and says with the I-tried expression, "Ms. Lily, it is excusable for such a big company not to
cooperate with us. If we really want to borrow people from them, we might not be able to afford the
price. There are still many famous planning companies, let me pick some good ones and send you the
documents. Is that OK?"
Lily is silent for a while, then she waves her hand, "No need, I'll do the job. You may do your own work."
After returning to her office, Lily takes care of the important things first.
At noon, she calls Stella.
"Lily?" Stella answers quickly and asks with a smile, "I see the news. You join the HS Company?"
"Yes, I've only been there for two days," Lily smiles faintly, "Are you busy? Can I have lunch with you?"
"No problem. I'll see you at the Red House Restaurant then."
"Alright!"
Lily asks Ella to draw up a contract. After she gets that, she goes to the garage. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
The restaurant is close to the Financial Center and will arrive in ten minutes.
After being led to the second floor by the waiter, Lily sees Stella sitting by the window. She walks over.
Stella also sees Lily. She looks up and down at Lily and pushes the menu over, "I haven't seen you for
months. You're getting prettier. You must have made a good living abroad."
"You are not saying that I'm putting on weight, are you?" Lily glances at Stella and sits down.
"I swear to god. I'm serious!"
"I don't know how to describe my life, but I eat well every day."
Lily chats with Stella while ordering.
Lily then returns the menu to the waiter and asks Stella, "Has the Little Fairy contacted you recently?"
Stella shakes her head, "No, I couldn't contact her before. Last time, my assistant went to the Smith
Group. I asked her to help me find Jessie. But my assistant said that Jessie had already resigned."
"She's pregnant. Maybe she's resting."
Stella stops drinking water and looks at Lily in shock, "Really? When did it happen?"
"Not long before I go to Country Y." After all, Lily treats Stella as a good friend, so she tells Stella
everything that happened this month.
After speaking, Lily's mouth is drained and she drinks some water. Lily notices that Stella still looks
shocked. Lily smiled, "Hey, What's wrong?"
"You've experienced too much!" Stella sucks in a cold breath, "Louis knows why you go abroad. Didn't
he look for you?"
Lily lowers her eyes, "We've broken up."
Lily doesn't tell Stella about Louis’ trip to Country Y to pick up Chloe, and Lily doesn't think it is
necessary.
Lily changes the topic, "Two days ago, when I went to work, I ran into Leigh's supercar. There was a
girl sitting in the passenger seat, offering him water."
"Are you sure?" Stella rubs her chin and says, "I met Leigh at a cocktail party last time. He didn't have
a female companion. And he seems honest."
Lily sneers, "I'm not blind. I know what the Little Fairy looks like."
"Then he's really going too far," Stella frowns, "Little Fairy is pregnant. He should restrain himself. If
Little Fairy finds out, she must be angry. It may hurt her baby!"
"That's the problem," Lily says worriedly, "I can't contact Little Fairy on the phone, and Leigh has
blocked me. I don't even know if Little Fairy is staying in the Lewis'."
"Let me try." Stella takes out her phone and dials Leigh.
Lily waits quietly.
After a while, Stella looks at Lily speechlessly, "I can't get through. He probably blocks me too."
"I'm worried. I'll go to the Lewis' later." Lily becomes more anxious.
She is afraid that Leigh would retaliate against Jessie after knowing that Jessie had planned Derek's
death.
Stella says, "I'll go with you. I don't have much work to do this afternoon."
After the meal is served, they chat while eating.
Stella asks Lily what she thought of the HS Company. Lily takes the opportunity to tell her about the
new perfume the HS Company is about to launch, as well as the VAM with other companies.
"I want to cooperate with the Smith Group. But I didn't expect the Smith Group to blacklist me and the
HS Company," Lily slices the steak vigorously and says angrily, "I understand if the cooperate fails. But
why it blocks me?"
The more she says, the angrier she becomes. Her voice also turns louder, "Also, I want to buy some
oranges from their orchard. Louis actually refuses me! He even defriends my assistant!"
Stella laughs, "Louis can't be that stingy! But you rarely eat oranges. Why do you love it after you came
back?"
"I don't know. After getting pregnant, I really want to have oranges."
"Pregnant?" Stella is stunned for a moment. Her eyes widen as she looks at Lily, "What did you say?"
Lily smiles, "It's true. In a few months, your son's wife will be born."
Stella asks, "The baby's father is louis, right?"
"Don't mention him!" Lily gets angry when she thinks of that man. She snorts coldly, "He probably has
forgotten my name since he has so many women drape themselves over him!"
"You mean Sofia, new manager of the Smith Group?" Stella thinks for a moment and says, "She's
pretty. I see her and Louis in the newspaper last time, but..."
She wants to say that Louis may not like that kind of woman, or it may be a misunderstanding.
Lily interrupts Stella and says with a frosty face, "It's all over. I don't care! I'm not short of suitors! I can
just find a better father for the child!"
"Don't overreact to this. Why don't you discuss it with Louis?" Stella doesn't know how to persuade her.
"There's nothing to discuss." Lily replies coldly and warns Stella with her eyes, "Stella, pick one side.
You may lose your daughter-in-law."
Stella pulls her lips together, "Take care of your own matters. I won't interfere."
Lily's expression relaxes. She takes out a document and gives it to Stella, "Other than the Smith Group,
your company is also good at planning. You won't refuse us, right?"
Stella waves her hand, "If you want people, just tell me. We're friends."
"The contract is needed," Lily insists on giving her the contract and hands Stella a pen, "My daughter is
not born. We have to follow the procedure."
"According to what you said." Stella quickly signs the contract then.
Lily puts away the contract and sighs, "Fortunately, I can count on you. My ex- boyfriend is nothing and
can't be trusted."
He won't work with her. He won't even sell her oranges! How stingy!
