Chapter 57 She Disappears
Chapter 57 She Disappears
Less than half an hour, the meeting is over.
Lily doesn’t make comments, just listens quietly, but when she is going out, Julian stops her.
"Lily, don’t handle other things when you are working." Julian looks displeased, "The Smith Group is
paying you for work. It's not appropriate for you to do other things."
No matter what Lily says, she continues, "If Mr. Louis needs you, please tell me in advance. There are
other translators in the department, and some jobs need to be handed over to others."
Lily nods, and looks calm, "Yes."
"Lily, are you dissatisfied with my arrangement?" Julian says sternly. Now she is much more arrogant
than when she faced everyone just now, "I can be the acting minister, indicating that I will be the
minister."
"I'm not dissatisfied. You are better than me, and I should congratulate you for becoming the minister."
Lily says. She has no interest in this position. It was Leon who asked her to take the position, so she
agreed.
But she didn't expect the minister to have such an accident.
Julian is obviously very satisfied with her answer. She slightly says complacently, "Even if the minister
doesn’t have accident today, after he goes to New York, this position is still mine."
"I'm not like you. You are alone." She pats Lily on the shoulder and smiles, "I value the talent. As long
as you don't go against me, and respect me, I will cultivate you."
"Thank you, Miss Julian." Lily smiles back, "Then I go back to work."
Lily has other things to deal with. She doesn’t have time to rest in the afternoon and buries herself into
work. Later Julian hands over several documents to her and she is busy until six in the evening.
Jessie has been waiting downstairs for a long time.
When she sees Lily rubbing her shoulders out of the elevator, she runs over, "Don’t you get off work at
five o'clock. Why are you later than me today?"
"There are lots of things to deal with today." Lily feels tired for sitting at the desk for a whole afternoon.
She takes over Jessie’s water and drinks half.
"What about your minister? Is he really dead?"
"Yes, he has an acute myocardial infarction." Lily's tone is a little heavy.
She has asked David in the afternoon, and the doctor diagnosed that Leon stayed up all night to work
in a row, so he has such an incident.
"It's a pity." Jessie regrets, "I met your minister several times when I took the elevator. He is very kind
and I also heard that he always protected his subordinates. I always think that how good it is if I learn
translation, then I can work with him."
Lily feels sour.
After she enters the translation department of the Smith Group, she learned a lot from the minister.
Because of this, she would not refuse any requirement Leon proposed.
How kind he was! But he left so suddenly. Lily heard that his daughter is only twelve years old. How
desperate his wife and daughter would be if they get the news?
"Lily, are you okay?" Jessie asks with concern when Lily's eyes are red.
"I'm fine. Let's go shopping. There is no food at home."
When they buy the food, they go home and cook. When they finish dinner, it’s already nine o'clock.
Jessie has homework to do, so when she finishes washing the dishes, she goes back to the room. Lily
also returns to the room.
Lily checks the mails after taking the shower.
Her mind is in a mess.
She thinks of a lot of things, the loopholes in the contract, the conversation with Susan at the restaurant
at noon, and the unexpected death of the minister. She always feels something is wrong.
Is Leon’s death really an accident?
She feels dizzy, but some buzzes wake her up. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Lily takes the phone and sees who calls her.
It is a strange number.
She answers the phone, "Hello, who is it?"
"Miss Lily, it’s David." David's calm and serious voice comes from the end of the phone. "Come
downstairs, I am in front of your apartment."
"What?" Lily doesn’t feel drowsy when she hears that. She looks at the time and says, "It’s one in the
morning. Won't you let me go abroad with you now?"
"Miss Lily, yes. Hurry down."
"..."
After hanging up the phone and lying on the bed for a while, Lily gets up, quickly washes and changes
clothes. She stuffs her skin care products and clothes into the suitcase, and goes out in a hurry.
When Lily walks out of the apartment, she sees a car parking downstairs, and David is waiting for her.
"Is there a plane to abroad in the early morning?" Lily mumbles. Louis hasn't found her for so long. She
thought that they have postponed the time again. She didn't expect that they find her in the early
morning!
"Mr. Louis just has time." David takes the luggage in her hand and opens the back door. Lily complains
Louis for a while and gets into the car.
It takes 40 minutes to Yorkshire Airport.
Although it is early in the morning, the airport is brightly lit and there are many people coming and
going. Most of them take the early morning flight. Lily follows David into the VIP room.
A woman holding coffee walks up to Lily.
Accidentally they bump into each other and the coffee spills on Lily's clothes.
"Sorry." The woman quickly apologizes and hands Lily a pack of tissues.
"It's okay." Lily sees that the woman isn't intentional, and she apologizes to her sincerely, Lily doesn’t
care about her and takes out the tissue to wipe the coffee stains on her clothes.
However, Lily wears a white chiffon shirt. The brown coffee is very conspicuous. She has to change her
clothes. She tells David that she wants to go to the bathroom and change the clothes.
"Well, I will wait for you here."
Soon after Lily goes to the bathroom, Louis also comes. He is still wearing a suit and looks a little
messy. When he only sees David and a suitcase, he asks, "What about Lily?"
"Miss Lily goes to the bathroom to change the clothes." David looks at his watch and says a little
puzzledly, "But ten minutes have passed, and Lily hasn’t come out yet."
Louis's face suddenly turns sullen, and he has a bad hunch, "How did her clothes get dirty?"
"I just walked ahead to send you a message, and a woman accidentally spilled coffee on Miss Lily."
When he sees Louis look gloomy, David, who has finished his statement, also feels something goes
wrong. He holds his glasses slowly, "Would it be fine?"
Louis calls a female flight attendant.
The female flight attendant takes Louis and David to the female toilet. The two men are waiting outside
and the female flight attendant walks in. Within a minute, the female flight attendant takes the two
women out.
"Sir, there are only these two ladies in there, no one else."
The two women are upset. David repeatedly apologizes to them and follows Louis out to find Lily.
The VIP waiting room is not big, but they couldn't find Lily.
Later, they can only check the monitoring.
Surveillance shows that shortly after Lily entered the bathroom, a tall woman also entered. After a
while, the woman helped Lily come out of the toilet.
Lily is wearing a headscarf and sunglasses, and is supported by the tall woman. Lily doesn’t seem to
be in a coma, and she walks out with the tall woman, so it didn't attract the attention of the flight
attendants.
