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

Chapter 658: Winter Branches



Chapter 658: Winter Branches

Guest Room.

The maid opened a crack in the window, trying to let some fresh air in.

As a result, the room mixed with the smell of rain, and the originally enclosed space was filled with a hint of coolness. Lily was afraid of catching a cold, so she didn’t dare take off her coat.

She washed up in the guest room’s attached bathroom, at the age of just over twenty, the collagen was still there, but the sense of youth was no longer present.

There was a four-year age gap between Lily and Finnian, clearly a normal age difference for a couple, yet she always felt like he was an elder. Whether at work or in life, she was always the one being taken care of.

The usually aloof and noble man had a day when he was brought down from the pedestal.

What kind of feeling was that... It was like a branch growing in the biting winter wind, indescribable and unclear.

The next day.

Lily woke up early and went downstairs to find breakfast already prepared. Finnian was learning the dialect of The Chyvan Region from the maid.

He was wearing a light blue shirt, looking both casual and steady.

The hem of the shirt was tucked neatly at the waist, highlighting his slim waist and broad shoulders, making Lily swallow involuntarily.

When Finnian saw her, he invited her over to the table and handed her a glass of golden honey water, "Raw honey water, the maid drinks it every day when she wakes up, I prepared a glass for you."

She sweetly thanked the maid and then let her gaze linger on his hand in front of her, with well-defined knuckles, clearly a hand accustomed to a life of privilege, without even the slightest callus.

Finnian didn’t understand her intent, and smiled, saying, "It’s not poisoned, don’t worry, drink it."

Lily lifted her eyes again and met the other’s eyes, full of laughter.

She said, "The maid made the honey water especially for me, of course, I trust it, it’s just that I noticed today your hands are quite attractive."

In just a few words, she indirectly praised both people. The Sloan Family always said she was smart since she was a child.

In April, Stanton City was soaked in the drizzling rain, the air filled with the scent of dampness everywhere.

When Finnian dropped Lily off downstairs at VK, they happened to run into Nora, who teased them, "Finnian’s been brought down off his pedestal by our Lily."

Finnian chuckled, possessing a sense of nobility that no one else could emulate.

Unlike Jasper Sinclair.

Jasper carried an innate nobility and indifference, with everyone but Nora needing great courage to even meet his gaze.

Upon entering VK, Nora saw an old acquaintance.

Peach Bell was searching around the exhibition area, not seeming to look for any desired product.

She saw Nora, chatting and laughing with colleagues towards the elevator, and hurried to catch up.

"Nora."

In the past, in front of The Sinclair Family, she would put on the act, affectionately calling her sister.

But times had changed; her youthful innocence had completely faded, and even her attire had drastically changed.

A form-fitting Modal T-shirt and a pencil skirt outlined her figure, undulating like the hills of spring, completely unlike a young girl.

Just this mention of her full name made everyone around look at Peach Bell.

Throughout VK, who dared to call the Boss by name at this time.

Even Lily, after crossing VK’s threshold, had to call her Director Nora.

Looking again at Nora, her expression remained unchanged from before.

She said to the person beside her, "You go ahead, and if you see Yvonne Winslow, let her prepare a glass of ice water for me."
