Thomas stood behind Arsen, who was sitting next to Lily's bed. He could not guess what was on his boss's mind at the moment.

Ever since bringing Lily to the hospital, Arsen hadn't said a word to him; he was solely focused on Lily's condition.

Thomas intended to apologize. He was worried—had he made a mistake by touching Arsen's woman?

However, before Thomas could even open his mouth, Arsen spoke first. "Fire the employee who pushed Lily earlier! And make sure she will never be able to work in a

  • Wedded to the Ruler: My Contract Husband Gives It All   20. The Wrong Challenge

    Adhitama was incredibly surprised to hear Lily's words, especially since his daughter seemed to be challenging his doubts about the marriage she was in. Adhitama let out a small sigh. "Alright, if you are really that confident about it." The man looked at Lily without a trace of hesitation. "Papa will wait for you to prove your words." Even though Adhitama actually didn't hope for Lily to have a child just yet because he still wasn't sure about Arsen, in order to prove Lily's words, Adhitama had to make that decision. Lily gasped, even swallowing hard. She didn't expect her papa to agree with her words about giving him a grandchild quickly. Even though Lily only wanted to convince him so her papa would believe her, who would have thought Adhitama would actually demand it in return. "Oh, by the way, how is Papa's business?" Lily asked, changing the subject by bringing up company matters. "Good," Adhitama replied. "Papa has also found a replacement director for you," he ad

    That afternoon, Lily surprised several ARS Company staff members who happened to be leaving work at the exact same time as her.Two luxury sedans, with two drivers who had already opened the doors, both invited Lily to get in.Lily pressed her lips tightly together. The driver of the metallic gray car was Arsen's driver who had dropped her off that morning, while the middle-aged driver behind him with the black sedan was her papa's personal driver."Miss, are you not going home?"Lily looked at Arsen's driver, then shifted her gaze to Adhitama's driver."Miss Lily, your Papa wants to see you."Lily felt an aching throb in her chest. Finally, she approached Deni—Arsen's driver—and said, "I will ask my husband's permission, so you can just head home."Deni didn't budge. He could get in trouble if he didn't do his job properly."But Miss, the Master might get angry with me.""Don't worry! I'll make sure my husband won't get mad at you." Lily lowered her voice to a whisper when saying the

    Arsen looked out the window of his luxury car, which was being driven by Thomas.A few moments ago, Arsen had just received word from Aunt Jess that Lily stubbornly insisted on going to work despite his orders for her to stay home.The handsome man held back a smile, realizing Thomas had been watching him through the rearview mirror this whole time. Arsen's gaze shifted to a cellphone lying on the seat next to him."Sir, are you sure you are going to do this?"Arsen did not answer Thomas's question; he grabbed the phone and turned it on."This year seems to be my lucky year. I didn't expect Jerry's mistress to be Lily's psychiatrist," Arsen said.Thomas smiled. He looked at Arsen again before returning his focus to driving.Thomas gave a faint shake of his head. What in this world couldn't Arsen do? Let alone straightforward matters, his boss could even handle the dirty work."That damn bastard slipped me an aphrodisiac on my very first day stepping foot in this country," Arsen said.

    Lily entered the marketing department office with Dini. She greeted her teammates who had already arrived, but Lily could feel that her colleagues were now looking at her with a sense of unease.Lily glanced toward Sonia's desk. Although the woman herself was nowhere to be seen, Lily noticed her bag was already sitting on the desk.Unbothered, Lily sat down and immediately opened her laptop. Her workload was piling up because Sonia had given her a much heavier burden than the other staff members.Suddenly, Lily's phone vibrated, pulling her focus away from the reports she needed to compile and finish.[Do you have time? I want to meet.]Lily's brow furrowed slightly upon seeing an unknown number had sent a message to her phone.However, from the displayed profile picture, Lily instantly knew the owner of the number was Bryan.Lily simply ignored the message with no intention of replying, but another text from her ex-fiancé came in, annoying her.Lily was about to block him right then

    That morning, Lily woke up to a situation she couldn't quite process yet. When she cast her gaze around, all Lily found was Aunt Jess standing beside her bed, and two maids standing not far from them."The Master has already left," Aunt Jess said as if she knew the confusion Lily was feeling. "The Master said there is an urgent matter, so he might be gone for two days. He also left a message that Miss doesn't need to go to work today."Lily suddenly felt strange, touching her chest. Something was missing. Why didn't Arsen say goodbye to her?Lily suddenly shook her head, bringing herself back to her senses, but she still reached for the phone on the nightstand.Seeing her phone empty, disappointment suddenly filled her heart.Arsen really hadn't said goodbye to her.Shifting her thoughts, Lily threw back the blanket. "I can't stay at home all day, I'll definitely get bored, Auntie. It's fine, I'll ask my husband's permission to go to work today."She was about to get down, but the pai

  • Wedded to the Ruler: My Contract Husband Gives It All   15. Why Don't You Teach Me?

    When Arsen's gaze fell upon the wrist that Lily was gripping, Lily finally realized it. She hurriedly pulled her hand away and apologized.Lily lowered her head, feeling awkward and afraid of Arsen at the same time."Are you really feeling better?"Lily was startled and immediately looked up at Arsen's face. She nodded without hesitation. Lily was glad Arsen asked her that, even though the man didn't say anything else afterward.As late afternoon turned into evening, Lily could breathe a sigh of relief because Arsen granted her request. Even though she had to use a wheelchair when leaving the room, at least she didn't have to spend the night in the place she feared most.Lily tried to get up when the car picking up her and Arsen arrived. She was just about to straighten her body when Arsen suddenly lifted her up.Lily gasped. Her heart suddenly beat erratically, and her cheeks felt hot because of Arsen's treatment toward her. The man even fastened her seatbelt for her.However, the su
