Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 587: Letting Go for You

The streets in the early morning were packed with people, all still savoring the shock and romance brought by the fireworks.

It was already going viral on every platform: Who exactly was the big shot trying to win a beauty’s smile?

However, besides a small group of insiders, no one else could gather any more information.

Some netizens had uploaded the most spectacular few seconds to Weibo, and it was now trending.

The comments were all over the place, with someone saying, "I always thought I was the main character of this world, only to realize now that I’m just an NPC."

"NPC, count me in."

Just a single comment had already gathered over a thousand replies.

The hype was only rising, with people digging into Jasper Sinclair and Nora Northwood, but The Sinclair Group’s PR department remained unresponsive.

Aside from them, the happiest person should be Louis Hayes.

He no longer had to endure the tyrant’s harm and anger 24/7!

...

The revelry went on until three in the morning.

A few young ladies couldn’t hold on, especially Lily, who was struggling with a terrible headache from intoxication.

Even just sitting on the couch, she felt like the crystal chandelier was spinning circles above her.

In her daze, she heard someone calling her name.

"I’m so dizzy, Finnian..." she mumbled, not even sure if the person in front of her was indeed Finnian Lawrence, but still, she held onto his hand.

"I’ll take you home."

Lily, with her last bit of consciousness, stood up from the couch, muttering, "Hold me, I’m gonna fall."

And with that, she truly lost her balance.

"Thud—"

By the time Finnian realized, he already had someone in his arms.

He had shed his coat, and now, wearing just a sweater, through the fabric, he could almost feel Lily’s somewhat warm cheeks.

He had always wanted to pinch that chubby baby face of hers, and now, it seemed he had half fulfilled that wish.

Shane Hamilton teased from the side, "Mr. Lawrence, you’ll soon win the beauty home."

"Grab my coat for me, the light khaki one."

Shane eagerly retrieved it, then watched the two of them leave, no one noticing the fleeting trace of loneliness in his eyes.

...

When Lily opened her eyes again, she was in a hotel bed.

The 200-meter-high floor made it feel like she was amidst the clouds, giving a strong sense of unreality.

The winter sun poured onto the foot of the bed.

At this height, there wasn’t even a need to draw the curtains tight, with no concern of being peeked at.

The person in the bed was still dazed, trying to recall what happened the previous night.

Her last memory was calling out Finnian’s name.

Was it Finnian who brought her here?

Lily wasn’t sure. She scanned the hotel room, seeing no other figure, and her clothing hadn’t changed a bit.

It was finally the room’s phone that interrupted her thoughts.

"Ms. Sloan, would you like breakfast prepared for you?"

"No, thank you."

Lily was about to hang up when the person on the other end said, "Mr. Lawrence has arranged a driver for you. If you need to go out, you can call the hotel front desk anytime."

She replied, "I need to go out now."

"Alright, the driver will be waiting for you in the lobby in three minutes."

The hotel service was both considerate and swift. Lily quickly tidied herself up and left the room.

Even when she sat in the back of a black business car, she couldn’t recall what happened later on.
