Chapter 114
Virgil brought the dinner, and Moira also had him bring two sets of clothes. She planned to stay in the hospital with Zea for the next few days.
After that, Virgil left the hospital. As soon as he got into the car, Perry handed him an envelope.
Virgil poured the photos out of the envelope. When he saw the person in the photo, his handsome face darkened instantly. He took out his phone
The call was answered quickly, Without waiting for the other person to speak. Virgil asked coldly. “Where is Lily?”
the
The person on the other end responded without thinking much. “She’s with me at Sunridge. I don’t know what kind of charm you’ve put on th girl. I already toki her you have a girlfriend, but she kept asking me to bring you out. I didn’t want to disturb you…”
Virgil interjected, Tm coming over now.”
At Sunridge Clubhouse, Lily heard from her brother that Conrad was coming to see her specifically. She was very pleased and immediately touched up her makeup.
“Howard, do I look good now?” asked Lily.
“You look fine.” Howard casually replied without even glancing up while tossing a pair of twos on the table.
Alex said, “pass,” and placed his cards down. Then he hit a cigarette and puffed out smoke, his handsome face partly obscured cocky and mischievous charm. “Cobra’s such a bore. Why are you so into him?”

Dressed in simple bot stylish leisurewear, Alex looked as good as Conrad but in a more delicate way, whereas Conrad had sharp and manly features. Every time Lily saw Alex smile at her, her heart would beat faster, but she knew deep down that she couldn’t control a man like him, especially since he was already married.

Lily’s cheeks flushed slightly. She was about to speak when Howard mocked, “She probably has a rock in her head.”
“Howard. I’m your sister! How could you say that about me? 1.

Jeff laughed so hard that he almost spat out his drink. He placed his glass on the table, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said seriously, “Conrad may be a bit boring, but he’s good–looking, and he really knows how to make money. It’s normal for a girl to like him.”
“Nah, Conrad’s not boring at all. I like him just the way he is!” Lily’s heart raced with anticipation as she kept her eyes on the door. Since the man bad turned her down in the parking lot, she hadn’t seen him again. She really missed him
About ten minutes later, the door to the private room swung open from the outside, and a tall and handsome man with an air of authority walked
“Conrad!” Lily’s eyes lit up. She immediately stood up from the sofa and went forward to welcome him excitedly.
Conrad tossed the things in his hand onto the table where the group was playing cards.
Howard had just thrown down a hand of cards and was still trying to sort them out when the things scattered everything
“What the hell is your problem?” he snapped, glaring at Conrad in annoyance. The other two also looked at Conrad in confusion and surprise.
Conrad’s cold gaze was fixed on Lily. “Did you do this? Although it was a question, his tone was affirmative.

and yellowish light. Lily’s eyes fell on the photos of herself with Suzy. Her face instantly turned pale.
“What’s the” Howard picked up one of the photos. When he saw his sister in the picture, he glanced between her and Conrad in puzzlement. Lily cheart was pounding. Cold sweat broke out on her palms. But with so many people present, she gathered her composure. She thought that even if Conrad was upset, he would only reproach her. There was no way he would truly be mad at her.
Hence, she raised her chin and admitted, “Yes, I did it. That woman doesn’t deserve you. She shouldn’t be clinging to you. I just wanted to teach her
Before she could finish, Conrad reached out and

The sudden and suffocating grip silenced Lily. Staring into his chilling, terrifying eyes, she widened her of
own in disbelief.
The others were equally stunnel. Howard quickly stood up and pried Conrad’s hand off Lily, pulling his sister behind him protectively. He round.

“Conrad, what the hell are you doing?”
Conrad looked at the siblings coldly. His warning gaze rested on Howard. I’m letting this slide because of you, but just this once. If she dares to touch someone she shouldn’t again. I’ll kill her.”
With that, he turned and left without looking back.
After the door closed, Howard questioned his sister angrily, “Didn’t I tell you nor to stir up trouble!
But Lily seemed not to hear him. She clutched her neck with a terrified expression and guttered to herself, “What does she have that I don’t? He said he’d kill me… How could he do that to me, Howard?”
Howard was livid, but seeing his sister like that pained his heart. With a sigh, he patted her shoulder and said, “I’ll find you someone better”
