THE VILLAIN'S WIFE

621-625

Chapter 621: Divine Intervention

It was a ring.

To be precise, it was a diamond ring in a woman's ring finger. Instantly, Lily's eyebrow lifted. She then returned the tablet back to Yang Mi. She was sure that her father would call and meet up with her soon to announce his happy engagement. If her guess was right, his background check must have come back clean. Or else he would not be so eager to propose.

Lily didn't give this matter another thought as she went back to reading her mail. "Send an anonymous email to that woman. Tell her we know who she truly is. Have her send us money to a foreign bank account." She uttered.

"President, what if... she asks Mr. Qin to help her out?"

"She won't, that will only make him suspect her. She would not want to create any doubts between them. Especially now"

Yang Mi nodded in response.

Lily then sent a text to Qin Yuanfeng about the matter.

"He wants to marry her?" Zhou Jingren asked when Lily told him what happened. However, what he got in response, was a blank look on Lily's face. "What's wrong?" He asked as he sat next to her.

"I'm wondering. If... If I die... will you replace me with someone that looks just like me?" she propped her chin onto her palms. She watched as surprise flashed in his eyes.

"No." His tone had a hint of assurance, no, a promise. "If you die... I die too."

Lily snorted. She was already expecting such an answer from him. "He is stupid."

"He is in love." He retorted softly. "We tend to do crazy things if we are in love with someone."

"He is not in love with Su Ma. He is in love with my mother, he is in love with the image of my mother in that woman." Lily remembered the similarities on how Su Ma and her mother act. The way they say some words, their mannerisms and even the way they laugh.All of this was something that Su Ma showed the last time that she met her.

It was really not that surprising, after all... Su Ma was very familiar with Bec Facci.

"Do you have a plan?" He asked, concern laced in his tone.

In response, Lily nodded and gave a mirthless smile. "I will see them at the wedding." She uttered.

What could be more scandalous than ruining someone else's wedding? For now... she would let Su Ma and everyone behind her think that she is limiting her interaction with Qin Chuan. "That man needs divine intervention." She added. "And I am giving it to him. I only hope he can take it."

"Alright. Don't stress yourself too much about this matter. Secretary Go is always willing to help Yang Mi out whenever she needs any assistance. For now... we should go home."

Lily instantly beamed at his words. The word 'home' sent a tinge of warmth into her heart. She closed her laptop and gave it to Yang Mi before heading out of the office with Zhou Jingren.

...

"A fractured bone?" Adalind frowned as she stared at the X-Ray in front of her. "Do we need surgery?"

"Unfortunately, yes." The older doctor nodded. "I can see that you already have a dislocated midfoot because of wearing heels for long periods of time. The CAT scan revealed that these injuries are far more serious than we originally anticipated. The accident earlier only made it worse. This time surgery is needed."

"So... it wasn't just a sprain?"

"No. It wasn't."

"Will I be able to walk again?"
