Chapter 406: I Don't Want to Go Back Because of Him
Chapter 406: I Don't Want to Go Back Because of Him
After the lawyer reviews it, he keeps one agreement for himself and the other for them.
Then, Burnell takes a blue enamel jewelry box from the butler.
"Winona." Burnell hands her the jewelry box. "I haven't given you a gift since you came to the manor.
How about this set of jewelry?"
When Lily sees the enamel jewelry box, she feels very familiar with it, as if she has seen it once in an
auction album. It is valuable.
The box is very expensive, not to mention the jewelry inside.
However, Burnell gives Lily this box in front of so many people. She can't refuse him. So she has no
choice but to take it.
"Thank you, Uncle."
Burnell smiles, "It's nothing. We're family, right?"
John, who is sitting beside Lily, looks at the jewelry box. His gaze darkens, but he doesn't say anything.
Soon the lawyers leave with their briefcases.
Jonathan is sure of that he will be the final winner of the VAM, so he always shows a cunning smile.
During dinner, he even tells John that he can offer help if John needs.
Lily can't bear his hypocrisy and she feels unhappy. The dinner also ends in such an unhappy
atmosphere.
After dinner, Lily goes upstairs with John.
After closing the door, Lily immediately asks him, "Which company did your father give you? He loves
you so much, so he can't give you the company in Continent F, right?"
" ... No."
"Then where is the company?" Lily asks. Seeing that John doesn't look good, she also feels very
nervous. "In the Middle East? It's good if the company is in the Middle East. The investors there are Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
very rich."
John hands the document to her and forces a smile. "One is in the Capital of Country Z, and the other
is in DB City of Country R."
Actually, he regrets it as soon as he sees the document. He wishes he can exchange it with Jonathan.
Because country Z is his hometown.
"Asia is the most economically developed region, and it does very well in export trade. The business of
Krislier Group has never reached Asia, and it hasn't made any money in Asia," Lily reads the document
and makes a quick analysis.
"The companies your father gives you are all in the first-tier cities with developed economy. As long as
you make good plans and find investors, the company will grow quickly!"
"John, your father is paving the way for you! As long as you exploit the market in Asia, even if Jonathan
wins three years later and gets Krislier Group, he will earn much less than you!"
Compared to Lily's excitement, John looks very calm, and he seems to be upset.
Of course he knows Burnell's intentions, but....
"I will draw up a strategic plan and take the best elites with me." John looks at Lily and says, "Lily,
you've been rushing around after me for too long. I hope you can have a good rest during the
pregnancy in the manor."
Lily shakes her head and refuses. "The manor is not ours. Jonathan will come back occasionally. He's
a very thoughtful person. After a long time, he will definitely find some clues."
John steps towards her and says urgently, "I've bought a few houses elsewhere. You can come with
me and see if you want to live there."
"John, I want to help you." Lily interrupts him, "Three years passes quickly. It's easy for Jonathan to put
his spies in your company. You need someone you can trust to help you with the companies in Asia."
"There are many people I can trust. Victor can go with me." John places his forehead on Lily's hand. "I
just don't want you to be so hard since you're pregnant. I...."
Lily knows what he's thinking about. She purses her lips and says, "I've broken up with him and I've
told you that I will take good care of the babies. I've only called my mother twice since I left. I miss her."
"If you mother is willing to live here, I can bring her over."
"My mother likes to cook dishes and opens a small restaurant. She can't be accustomed to the
luxurious life here." Lily touches John's short hair and says with a smile, "Don't you go with me? What
are you afraid of?"
John does not reply.
Of course he's afraid.
He knows that Louis is still very important to Lily. Perhaps they break up due to the misunderstanding
created by John, but Lily never forgets that man.
After returning to Country Z, Lily will inevitably contact Louis because of work. John is also afraid that
what he does will be exposed and Lily will dislike him.
After taking a deep breath, John says to her, "I'll go back to Country Z with you. When I have my own
people in the company and everything is on track, we'll come back."
Before Lily can say anything to refuse, he adds, "Lily, you're pregnant with triplets. I hope you can give
birth to our children in a good environment. I've checked the expected date of childbirth. It won't be too
cold in the winter of Country Y."
John holds her hands in his warm palm and his azure eyes look gentle. "Lily, what do you think of my
plans?"
"You're right." Lily doesn't doubt his purpose and nods in agreement, "Let's see how it goes. We will
come back together after we handle the business well."
The man finally feels relieved and smiles, "Alright."
...
A week later, Lily and John pack everything up and head for the airport, to return to Country Z.
They rest in the VIP room and pass the time.
When they are about to board the plane, a flight attendant runs over and stops John. "Mr. John, I'm
sorry that your visa to Country Z has expired and you can't board the plane."
"Impossible!" John takes out his passport, only to discover that it's indeed invalid. His expression
darkens and he says, "Why didn't you tell me just now?"
The flight attendant hurriedly apologizes, "Sorry, it's our mistake. You need to reapply for your visa.
Otherwise, even if you board the plane, you will still be stopped at the connecting airport."
John frowns.
No matter how fast his subordinates can be, it will take them at least two days to get the new passport.
"I see." John dismisses the flight attendant and takes out the phone. He says to Lily, "I'll ask Victor to
prepare a private plane. We'll take the private plane to Country Z."
"It's too troublesome. You have to contact air traffic controller, and Victor is busy." Lily holds John's
hand and says, "It only takes a few days to get a new visa. I'll go back first, and you can come back
when the visa is done."
"No. I'm worried about you if you go back alone."
Lily smiles, "I am an interpreter. Are you afraid that I will be lost at the connecting airport? Trust me. I
will go back first. You come to me as soon as your visa is issued."
John can't make her change her mind, so he reluctantly agrees.
When Lily is about to board the plane, he keeps telling her that it doesn't matter if the luggage is lost.
She just needs to take good care of herself and remembers to call him when she arrives at the
connecting airport.
Lily feels it's quite funny. After a long while, she pulls her hand out of John's palm.
Lily buys the first-class ticket. The cabin is spacious and quiet, and the flight attendants are very
considerate. She falls asleep during the journey, and when she wakes up, she almost arrives at the
transfer airport.
Arriving at the transfer airport, she calls John and ensures him that everything is OK. After waiting for
more than an hour, she boards the plane back to Country Z.
At ten o'clock the next morning, the plane lands at Yorkshire Airport.
Returning to Yorkshire after a few months, Lily feels a close affinity with this city.
