Back in the car, Lily watched the people on the road get further and further away. She was in a daze.No one knew what she was thinking.“What did I do this morning?” Galen’s cold voice pulled her back to reality.He had to clear things up with her.Lily blinked. “This morning, you noticed that I was starting to think that you brought multiple women to your apartment and you took the initiative to explain. Isn’t that strange?”Galen frowned. “Does that even count?”“Of course! Otherwise, why would you mention Demi? Didn’t you just want me to stay for breakfast?”Galen was silent for a moment. For the first time, he did not deny what she had asserted.Instead, he said, “Are you aware that what you said can easily make people’s imaginations run wild and misunderstand?”Lily looked innocent. “What do you mean? Why didn’t you explain it clearly earlier? What should I do now? Should I call Demi now and explain to her personally?”Galen said, “Forget it.”Lily leaned against the d

Starlight Court was the apartment that Lily had stayed in last night.Galen was slightly stunned when he heard this, but he could not escape.He pushed open the car door and got out.Ruth went straight to the point and asked if Lily had spent the night at his place last night.Galen nodded and did not deny it.“What about you?” Ruth asked again.Galen knew what she meant and immediately replied, “I went back to the police station last night and made do in the lounge for the entire night.”Ruth’s eyes moved, and her lips curled up. She was polite but distant. “I’m sorry to trouble you then. I’ll keep an eye on her in the future and not let her run around drunk. However, Lily is quite a good drinker. She didn’t take the initiative to pester you, right?”Galen looked at her for a while. “No, she wanted to go back to the Lovehart family, but the Lovehart family is in a dire situation at the moment, and it would not be wise for Lily to go there.”Ruth smiled. “I knew it was strange

The manager’s expression did not change as he replied diplomatically, “This is an order from the higher-ups. We’re not sure. However, you made a promise on behalf of our shop…”“Who’s your superior? Call him over.”Lily did not fall for his tricks and could not be bothered to waste her breath on him. The manager was stunned by her overbearing attitude for a moment, but when he thought about how he had already dealt with several difficult customers in the past two days, he was not afraid of this young lady.“Miss, my superiors are following the orders of the headquarters. This decision was made by the higher-ups of the Blakewell Corporation. It’s useless no matter who you look for.”“Is that so?”Lily tilted her head and looked at him. “Are you sure it was the higher-ups’ idea?”The manager smiled. “Of course, our every move represents the Blakewell Corporation’s image. This also affects the Blakewell Corporation’s interests. The decision made by the higher-ups is based on the a

In that case, it was true.Lily seemed to be in a passive state with Galen.Whatever she did, Galen was unmoved, making Lily feel quite defeated.Therefore, during the night she stayed at his house, she felt that she was the one who took advantage of him. She felt that stepped into his private life and disturbed his life.However, she did not realize that he was the one who took the initiative to bring her back. She had to be the one to hold him accountable.Unconsciously, she thought about how Demi was back in the car. She was shocked and in disbelief, as she complained about her brother’s actions.At that time, she thought that she was the one who should have been blamed.After all, Demi did not want her to get too close to her brother. She even warned her brother not to be deceived by her.But when this happened, Demi’s first reaction was to stand on her side…Blinking, she stared at Ruth and pouted. “Hmph! We’re basically sisters! Men are the most unreliable! You guys are

The manager was stunned. He did not understand what Ruth meant by that.Just as he was about to ask, dissatisfied voices came from the lounge. “Why are you out of stock again? Didn’t you say that you would definitely be able to give us our prizes today?”“I’m sorry. That young lady just now is not one of our staff. She doesn’t know the situation and has inconvenienced you. I’m really sorry.” The employee gave them a perfunctory apology.“Can we redeem it or not? Is it true that the prize is just a gimmick and that this shop has no intention of giving it to us?” The man’s face darkened as he asked angrily. “No one I know has redeemed a car!”The employee smiled and said perfunctorily, “We don’t know either. Please come back tomorrow. We won’t know the details until tomorrow.”He might as well have told them to get lost.Not only did the couple look upset, but even Ruth could not sit still when she heard that.“Who said that? Didn’t you just tell us that the redemption period ende
