He barely has two stiches that isn&#8217;t a problem at all. All of this acting is just to threaten Lily. However, at this moment, he couldn&#8217;t sit still anymore.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Looking at him stubbornly leaving, Jade doesn&#8217;t dare to stop him too; therefore, following him is the best choice.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Tim hops on the car and looks at the time. She is about to leave the office. He then narrows his eyes and changes his direction instantly.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8230;.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lily is left out the whole afternoon. She had been severely scolded by Carlos and now feels weak.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   She is a bit frustrated, owing to the fact that, she has gotten into troubles this early.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Could this be her unlucky year?   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   It is time to get off work. When Crystal sees her bitter face, she comes and comforts her. &#8220;Go home and get some rest. You&#8217;re lucky enough to be able to get off on time. Don&#8217;t think too much. Wait &#8217;till Carlos cool down and tell him your mistakes.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lily sighs, &#8220;I wish it was that easy.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   She&#8217;s afraid that Carlos will fire her.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   While chatting, both of them walk together toward the door, but even before reaching the door, here comes a loud noise from the front desk.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry sir, but if you didn&#8217;t make an appointment, we can&#8217;t let you in.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;I said I came to see my wife.&#8221; The man&#8217;s voice is agitated.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Then please called her down to pick you up&#8230;&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Do have a problem with your brain? I&#8217;ve told you her name and you still didn&#8217;t believe me?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lily&#8217;s heart tightens, she has a bad feeling. The closer she is, the faster she steps forward. As soon as she reached the front desk, that familiar figure struck her.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Tim, what are you doing here?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;See, I&#8217;ve told you I was looking for someone and you didn&#8217;t believe me.&#8221; Tim looks scornfully at the receptionist.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   The receptionist doesn&#8217;t speak a word, but take a look at Lily, as if were trying to blame her for bringing such person to the company.    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lily takes a deep breath and looks at Crystal, giving a fake smile, &#8220;Crystal, you go first.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Crystal is aware that she can&#8217;t blend into the situation, she squeaks and points at the gate, &#8220;Okay, see you later.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Alright, see you.&#8221; Lily watches her leave, and then her smile face turns cold instantly and looks at Tim. &#8220;Come with me.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Tim narrows his eyes and grabs her wrists. &#8220;Hey, let&#8217;s talk here; are you afraid of people seeing us?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   His voices are so small that only both of them can hear it. Lily gives him a stern glance, &#8220;Tim, What in the earth are you doing!&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Nothing, I came to see you.&#8221; He looks around. &#8220;Not bad. I didn&#8217;t even know when did you become a lawyer?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lily approaches him, holding back her anger. &#8220;This is an office area. If you&#8217;ve got something to say, let&#8217;s talk outside. Don&#8217;t disturb other people.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   The man said coldly, &#8220;I think it was only one of your excuses.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lily stares at him firmly, feeling something fishy, like he has known something. But this is Rex&#8217;s company, knowing that he was here makes her more unease.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Thinking of this, she couldn&#8217;t help but soften her tone, &#8220;I beg you, let&#8217;s go home and talk, please?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Wow, you haven&#8217;t beg me for quite a long time. What&#8217;s wrong with you today?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Now, the two of them are standing at the door. When Lily is brainstorming to figure out how can she brings him home, came a thick, low-pitched male voice from the back&#8230;.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;What&#8217;s going on here?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lily&#8217;s pupils tightens, her whole body went stiff. Following the voice, she sees a man in a navy suit with a leather shoes, his dark gray tie is neatly tied, with three of the company&#8217;s executives following behind, one of them are Ander.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   What&#8217;s going on now?   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   The meeting of ex-husband and boyfriend?   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Ander&#8217;s gazes fell on Lily&#8217;s body. Even though he stood still, Lily is fully aware that he dislikes her. He is like watching something inappropriate.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   As the company&#8217;s second largest stakeholders, it is impossible for him to accept the current situation.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   When Lily is trying to find a way, a big hand suddenly comes behind her waist. She subconsciously wanted to stand beside, but was unexpectedly being pulled by forced to the man&#8217;s arm.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Tim looks at where Rex stands and amid that this man indeed has a charisma. His body is possessed with a strong aura that makes him looks real sharp.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   This make Tim feels a little pressure; he might have lost inside but still act like winning. Looking at Lily&#8217;s half smile, he says, &#8220;What an honor to meet you, Rex. I&#8217;m Tim from Buy U Tech Company.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Surprisingly, Rex didn&#8217;t change his expression, &#8220;Never heard before.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   He shifts his eyes, moving from Lily&#8217;s face to Tim again. His tone is sharp, &#8220;Do you think this is a market?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>    Tim is refuted; his face is a little bit uneasy. But by looking at Lily&#8217;s face he smiles, and came upon this idea. &#8220;I&#8217;m picking my wife from work. But I didn&#8217;t make an appointment, this is just a misunderstanding.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Oh, is it?&#8221; Rex&#8217;s eyes don&#8217;t waver at all. He gently supports one of his hands on the table of the front desk, slightly raising his eyebrows.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Tim somehow becomes a little bit nervous by his sight and unconsciously pulled Lily&#8217;s hand by forced.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lily struggles and turns to look at him, &#8220;Can we go now?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   As expected, Tim doesn&#8217;t want to stay any longer and swaggers away, following Lily behind.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   The receptionist couldn&#8217;t help whispering, &#8220;What the hell is he&#8230;..&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Rex unintentionally looks at her and she panicked, &#8220;I, I mean&#8230;.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   When she is about to explained, her boss arrogantly says, &#8220;he&#8217;s not a human, don&#8217;t let him in next time.&#8221;    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Ander, &#8220;&#8230;..&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   The receptionist, &#8220;&#8230;..&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Rex walks out of the company without squinting. Ander comes back to his sense and follows Rex to the car.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Get out.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Ander plays deaf, he fastens his seat belt and looks at the man that sits right next to him, &#8220;I&#8217;ve heard from Karl. The girl just now is your girlfriend, right?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Rex didn&#8217;t say a word but only stared at the black Audi car in front.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;No, I just don&#8217;t understand. All of this year, with lots of girls out there, why do you have to choose a married woman?&#8221; Aware that he wants to speaks, Ander raises his hand up and interrupt directly, &#8220;Don&#8217;t say that you are just playing. Even if others&#8217; didn&#8217;t see it, I&#8217;ve seen it with my own eyes.
