"But I... um..." Lily Hernandez tried to say that she had not fully recovered yet, but Michael Lee kissed her and swallowed her words.

Unlike the kiss last night, which was all about releasing tension, today's kiss was much gentler...

Lily Hernandez was kissed by Michael Lee in a way that made her forget everything else. He held her in his arms as if to tell her that she was his and his alone.

After what seemed like an eternity, Michael Lee finally stopped kissing her.

He used his warm fingers to repeatedly rub Lily Hernandez's swollen lips, admiring his work with satisfaction, and said, "Not bad!"

Then, Michael Lee got up from the bed.

How vulgar...

The sudden disappearance of his presence made Lily Hernandez curse in her heart as she touched her lips.

"This is my phone number, and it's the same for WeChat. Remember our agreement!" Michael Lee pulled out a piece of tissue paper from the bedside table, wrote down a string of numbers on it, and handed it to her.

Lily Hernandez took the piece of paper and looked at the numbers written on it.

The paper conveyed dominance and decisiveness between the lines.

"Hmm..." Lily Hernandez obediently nodded and sent a friend request in front of him, then put on her clothes and left.

...

Not long after Lily Hernandez left, Michael Lee's personal assistant John rushed over with Michael Lee's childhood friend and psychiatrist, William.

John spoke respectfully, "Boss Lee, the person who drugged you was sent by the old mansion. Do you want to handle it directly or..."

"Send the person back after handling it," Michael Lee said sharply.

William breathed heavily beside them, finally calming down.

He was finally on vacation and was sleeping when John dragged him over. Capitalists were really bloodsuckers!

He looked at Michael Lee carefully and said meaningfully, "When someone pulls me over, I thought you were about to die. Now it seems... things are going well!"

"It looks like you had a good time last night, and the drug has completely worn off." As he spoke, Michael checked Michael Lee's pulse, looking like he had everything under control. "But who is this woman? How can she catch Boss Lee's eye?"

"Lily Hernandez? I feel like I've heard that name before..." William laughed when Michael Lee mentioned her name, but then suddenly came back to his senses.

He incredulously asked, "The Hernandez heiress whose family was ruined and perished a month ago? Ethan Lee's former fiancée from Yongfeng Real Estate?"

Although he knew Michael Lee was always a playboy, he didn't expect him to do something so outrageous.

To actually marry a woman he had never met before!

You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.

And this woman had been engaged to someone else before...

Lily Hernandez was once the most famous socialite in H City. She was gentle, poised, and handled things with grace, making her a desirable daughter-in-law for many families.

William had also crossed paths with Lily Hernandez before.

"Her appearance..." Lily Hernandez's face gradually overlapped with someone William remembered, and he finally understood Michael Lee's reaction.

So, he was collecting figurines!

"Pervert!" William silently mourned for Lily Hernandez for two seconds.

"The feeling is mutual." Michael Lee glanced at him disdainfully.

"Did the old mansion agree to it?"

Michael Lee lowered his eyes and said calmly, "They have no right to refuse."

His mother had never cared about these things.

As for the others, even if they wished to take his place, they still had to show respect on the surface.

Moreover, if they angered him, those people could leave the Huo family at any time.

Thinking of those cunning eyes, Michael Lee's heart softened a bit. "John, find out the cause of the trouble in Lily Hernandez's family and send it to me tomorrow. Also, clean up the villa in the Bund area."

John nodded in agreement.

William raised an eyebrow, it seemed that things would be very lively lately...

Walking all the way to the hotel entrance, Lily Hernandez looked up at the sky. The glaring sunlight made her feel a bit dizzy, so she closed her eyes and told herself, "Lily Hernandez, you did well!"

She calmed herself down and prepared to hail a taxi to the hospital when she suddenly spotted a convertible parked outside the hotel entrance. Sitting in the driver's seat was her brother's girlfriend, Emily, who was also her best friend from university.

Emily was different from the innocent-looking girl in Lily's memory. She was wearing a fiery red hip-hugging dress and her hair was curled into big waves, casually draped over her shoulders, making her look very glamorous.

The owner of the car was someone she knew all too well - Ethan Lee, her ex-fiancé whom she had broken up with just yesterday. Only a few days ago, Emily had gone to the hospital to see her brother and put on a display of unwavering loyalty in front of Lily.

And now, she was sitting in Ethan Lee's car, who was responsible for ruining Lily's family...

How shameless!

Although Lily was disgusted by Emily's behavior, it wasn't the right time to start a conflict. However, Emily spoke up first, "Since you've seen us, I have nothing to argue about. As you can see, your brother is now half-dead and has become a burden to me. He is not worthy of me!"

With a loud "smack," Lily Hernandez slapped Emily directly in the face. "Sitting in a luxury car, have you forgotten where you come from?" she said coldly.

"You..." Emily hated it when people brought up her background and was about to strike back.

But Lily Hernandez had learned judo since she was young and couldn't be beaten so easily. She grabbed Emily's arm and tightened her grip, saying, "Until yesterday, I was still the fiancée of Ethan Lee announced to the public by the Huo family. You are just a third party. I doubt that the Huo family's old lady has even acknowledged your identity. In that case, stay hidden and don't come out!"

After saying that, she suddenly let go of Emily's arm, causing her to stumble a few steps.

"What do you have that is better than me, other than a good background?" Emily stared at Lily Hernandez and suddenly thought of something, sneering, "You're just a abandoned woman. Do you think the Huo family would want you after they don't want me, especially after what happened last night?"

Hearing this, Lily Hernandez's breath hitched. "Last night... you arranged it?"

Emily saw the look of disbelief on her face and couldn't help feeling delighted. She looked Lily Hernandez up and down and laughed contemptuously, "It seems like you had a good time last night..."

"You used to think of yourself as so high and mighty. Now you're selling your body?" Emily looked at Lily Hernandez, whom she had trampled underfoot, feeling extremely satisfied. "The security guard should be your type. Do you want me to give you his phone number?"

Security guard?

Lily Hernandez suddenly understood and looked at Emily with a mocking smile. If she found out who that man was, she would regret it!

"Since you like Ethan Lee so much, I'll give him to you." Lily Hernandez said indifferently, "I've already called off the engagement and the Li family still doesn't want you..."

"Lily Hernandez!" Emily glared at her fiercely, wishing she could just cut her down with a knife.

Why was it that Lily Hernandez was useless in every way, but the Li family still wanted her as a daughter-in-law? Why was it that despite her excellent qualities, the Li family didn't value her just because she had no family background?

Suddenly, she looked up and saw a figure. She immediately changed her demeanor, ran over to the person's arms, and tearfully said, "Ethan brother, it's my fault. It's because of me that Lily Hernandez is blaming you..."
