A —s night fell, in a private club, Mary Ann, dressed in a pure white princess dress, was celebrating her eighteenth birthday together with her close friends in the circle.
The number of friends that she invited over wasn't many, but they were all friends that she felt she had played pretty well. Amongst them, Joshua Wayne, as her boss, naturally came to the scene to celebrate for her.
When it was around seven, Lily hurriedly pushed open the door and entered.
Sitting at the counter, Joshua Wayne who had already rejected multiple beauties, had obviously not expected Mary Ann to invite her here. The moment he saw her push open the door and enter, the hand holding the wine cup slightly froze.
"Lily, I thought you weren't coming anymore. I was so happy that you came!" Mary Ann immediately ran over and hugged Lily. Her beautiful face was filled with happiness.
Lily also patted her shoulder, "Mary, happy birthday, a small present, I hope you will like it!" Lily took out his present.
"Thank you. I already said, don't give me any gifts, I'm happy as you can come. In the beginning, I didn't think I could invite you, because you are about to marry a famous figure meanwhile I’m a nobody." Mary Ann said with a childish smile.
Lily was speechless, and immediately smiled: "Don't be like that, we are also friends, it is already my honor and privilege for you to invite me here!"
"Oh, right, I've invited my boss over as well. You're his sister-in-law, go and chat with him. He was just arguing about leaving, saying that it is too boring here." Mary Ann immediately grabbed Lily's hand and pulled her towards Joshua Wayne.
When Lily just entered, she did not pay attention to what kind of friends Mary Ann had invited over. She had originally wanted to come here and greet her before almost leaving.
Even though Mary Ann was young, her impression of her was not bad. She knew that she was also a very simple and hardworking good girl.
But when she saw Mary Ann forcefully push her to sit beside Joshua Wayne, the smile on her face froze for some reason.
Joshua Wayne did not expect Mary Ann to pull Lily and walk towards him, and when he reacted, Lily was seated right beside him.
Lily was also extremely embarrassed.
"I don’t know that you would come as well!" Joshua Wayne turned his head to the side, and his gaze swept across Lily's face.
Lily also laughed dryly, "That's right, Mary called me a few times. With such a passionate invitation, it would be bad if I did not come!"
"Sis, you should chat with my boss first. I still have a program later. You have to eat my cake before you leave!" After Mary Ann said this very enthusiastically, she went to greet her friends again.
The two of them sat on the sofa with unnatural expressions on their faces.
"Have a drink!" Joshua Wayne reached out and handed over a glass of red wine.
Lily took it and whispered, "Thank you!"
"Are the children alright? I haven't seen them for a while, I miss them a bit." Joshua Wayne's expression returned to normal and his voice became slightly deeper.
Ever since he confessed to Lily, he could no longer pretend to be that relaxed and rogue personality of his.
Lily also truthfully replied, "They're all fine and they also want to see you. If you have the time, go home and eat a meal; your grandfather and grandmother also miss you every day."
"I recently... I'm a little busy, we'll see." It was not that Joshua Wayne didn't want to return, but that he didn't dare.
