Chapter 264: Secrets in Pearl Earrings
Chapter 264: Secrets in Pearl Earrings
"I'm sorry."
"I'm really fine. I'll be sorry if you keep doing this."
Although Nancy assures Lily that she is fine and asks Lily not to worry, Lily cannot help but feel sorry,
because Lily lent them the car, which almost killed them.
Louis calls a secretary to arrange for Nancy and her boyfriend. He is fully responsible for the medical
expenses and gives her half a month's leave with the compensation of one year's salary.
After making arrangements, he leaves with Lily.
On the way back, Louis sees that Lily is still frowning. He puts her hand in his palm and says, "The
police have already gone to the scene to investigate. The results will be available soon."
Lily says, "I often go to maintain the car, so it can't be a car problem."
Louis’ eyes are gloomy.
Of course, he knows that BC is a well-known brand, and there are few cases of spontaneous
combustion. Even if there are, things would not be like what happened today, when the car was blown
up completely.
After they get home, Louis receives the on-site inspection report.
Based on the explosives at the scene, the police speculate that there is a detonator installed at the
bottom of the vehicle. As long as the vehicle is restarted, it will explode at a certain time.
"Vice President Carter must have someone do it." Lily is still scared now. She says coldly, "He can
even hurt my mother. There's nothing he can't do!"
After her driver's license is revoked, Leigh helps drive the car back to the underground garage in the
community. Afterwards, detonator is installed, but the other party does not expect that she doesn't drive
anymore.
If Nancy hadn't gotten out of the car to vomit with her boyfriend, they would have died!
"So, the person behind him is powerful enough to protect him, who dares to do these things openly!"
Louis sneers. His eyes are aggressive. Now, he is truly enraged.
"Don't act recklessly." Lily grabs his sleeve and says with a serious expression, "Before we get the
evidence, let's not fight him head-on, otherwise the gains will not be worth the losses."
Louis says, "Have you ever seen anyone I'm afraid of?"
"Louis!"
"Alright, it's up to you." Louis holds the woman in his arms and kisses her on the forehead. "However,
the evidence of his corruption in the past two years is conclusive. Although the amount is not big, it is
enough to sentence him to a few months' imprisonment. You can investigate him properly in these few
months, huh?"
Lily leans on his shoulder and asks in a low voice, "Am I useless? I haven't found anything."
"How could that be? These are all the work of the police and detective. You are helpful enough." Louis
says, "I haven't found anything either. Am I even more useless?"
"Louis."
"Huh?"
Lily reaches out and hugs him. The smell on his body is very good, making her attracted to him and
feel very safe. She rubs her head in the man's arms and says, "It's good to be rich."
Louis laughs, "You woman are really unpredictable. I thought you would praise me."
Lily mutters, "You are equal to the rich. It's the same."
"I love to hear that." Seeing that it is getting late, Louis carries her back to the room and says, "Go to
sleep."
His words are somewhat meaningful.
Lily blushes at the thought of what they haven't done before answering the phone. She wraps herself in
a blanket and waits nervously for a long time, only to see the man take off his clothes and turn off the
headlights.
And he sleeps on the other side of the bed.
Lily is stunned for a while, but seeing that he still hasn't moved, she can't help but ask, "Are you
asleep?"
"What's the matter?" Louis turns around and sees her expression. He guesses something and smiles,
"That size is indeed small. It doesn't suit me."
"Go away!" Lily kicks him angrily.
"You'll go to the company tomorrow. I'm afraid that you'll be too tired, so I just let you sleep. If you
seduce me again, I won't restrain myself." Louis holds her feet and says in a low and seductive voice.
Lily covers her face with a quilt and says, "I'm asleep. Let go of me."
Her feet are released by the man, but her body is hugged by him. Through the thin vest, Lily can clearly
hear his heartbeat.
A man's voice comes from above her head, "Sleep."
Lily wraps her hands around his waist and quickly falls asleep in his safe embrace.
--
Louis uses the reason of Vice President Carter stealing Smith's money and sends him to prison, while
Lily is anxious.
It has been so long, but she hasn't found anything.
Louis occasionally comes to see her. Seeing her so anxious, he feels worried. "If Vice President Carter
says that, he must have found something. Think about it carefully. What did Jason give you?"
"He really didn't give me anything." Lily rubs her forehead and guesses, "Tell me, did he leave
something somewhere and leave me some clues?"
Louis suddenly reaches out and touches the pearl earrings on her earlobe.
"This is from him, right?"
"Don't overthink. I just think that it looks good and I wear it often." Lily is afraid that he will be jealous,
so she explains, "I know what you're thinking, but such a small pearl can't hide anything, right?"
"Not necessarily." Louis thinks for a while and then says to her, "I'll smash it open. If there's nothing in
it, then ask the secretary to send it to the shop to remodel it."
Lily also thinks that this is the only thing that Jason has given her. What if it really contains something
dangerous?
She takes off her earrings.
Louis uses a small hammer to shatter the two pearls, but to their disappointment, there is nothing
inside.
Lily picks up the broken pearl in a small pouch, and the sunlight outside the window shines on the
pearl. The surface of the pearl is potholed, as if there is a secret.
"Wait, there seems to be something there." Louis says, pointing the pearl at the sun and looking
closely. He discovers that there is a football pattern drawn on the pearl. Because it is too small, it is
carved by a machine. If he isn't careful, he can't see it at all. He then looks at another pearl fragment,
with two letters on it: CT.
"It's the football pattern and the number 68." Louis asks Lily, "Do you know what that means?"
Lily ponders for a moment and suddenly looks up at him. "Jason likes football. He often goes to football
matches. Sometimes I will accompany him. Is CT the abbreviation of Chun Tan Stadium?"
"Maybe. Let's go take a look." Louis makes a prompt decision.
The two of them rush to the Chun Tan Stadium in a hurry.
Lily still remembers the seat where every time Jason sits when he watches the football match. She
finds it and takes a piece of paper from under the seat with a list of addresses written on it. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Lily knows this.
It is the place where she and Jason had their wedding.
Lily and Louis go over. The cleaner at the door stops her and hands her an envelope.
"I remember your wedding with Mr. Jason a year and a half ago! Mr. Jason came to me a few months
ago and gave me a large sum of money to continue working as a cleaner. I'll wait for you to come and
give you this letter. You're finally here."
Lily takes the letter and says, "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Lily opens the envelope. Inside are a black USB drive and a piece of letter paper. She opens the letter
and sees the familiar font of Jason.
After reading the contents of the paper, she covers her mouth tightly with her hand, afraid that she will
cry.
