Chapter 238
It was rare to see Michael so concerned about something, Lily wondered if she should consider using Kanya to threaten him in the future.
After hanging up, Lily walked into the living room where Loid and Layton were chatting.
As soon as she entered, Loid stood up and pulled her into his ams. He asked in his husky voice, “Done talking?”
Since coming to Bridgeport, he had always felt he couldn’t quite grasp Lily. Her social connections and the secretive things she was involved in made him uneasy. He was always afraid she would suddenly disappear. So, he kept a close watch on her to prevent her from slipping away.
“Yeah.” Lily nodded and lazily leaned against him. She looked tired.
Noticing she seemed worn out, Loid asked gently, “Do you want to rest for a bit?”
“It’s fine” Lily shook her head. “Let’s head back after our meal. After bidding goodbye to your grandfather, we’ll return to Lagersfield City tonight.”
Loid frowned. “Are you in such a hurry?””
Lily rubbed her temples. “I just feel uneasy.”
“Alright.” Loid understood what she was worried about
Belinda was alone in the hospital, and Lily was concerned.
After dinner at Weiss Residence, Lily left with Loid and the others.
As they were leaving, Lily stopped and looked at Layton. She said calmly, “Starting tomorrow, liquidate the Weisses‘ assets and sell off all your properties.”
Layton was shocked. “Ms. Brocks, what do you mean by this?”
Lold was also surprised.
Shaun and Daniel seemed confused as well.
ng they
They knew Lily well, and she never liked meddling in others‘ affairs. They wondered why she was intervening in the Weisses‘ matters this time, not to mention suggesting selloff everything. This would essentially force the Weisses out of the upper–class clacle.
“Once the Weisses” assets are sold, someone will connect you with new ventures. I want you to climb to the sixth position among Bridgeport’s noble families within a month.” Lily’s cold statement shocked everyone present.
Layton was stunned He stared at Lily “Sath place?”
If anyone else had said this, he would have called them an idiot. How could they possibly move from tenth place to sixth place in just a month? It wasn’t like a race where a bit of effort could improve your rank. This was about strength, wealth, and influence
The Weisses were struggling to stay afloat, and she wanted them to reach sixth place. It sounded like a madman’s dream. But he dared not talk back to Lily.
Lily glanced at him, her voice lcy. “I’ll provide you with the people and funds. If you can’t make it even then, it’s your problem. I don’t want to support someone incompetent.” Loid, Shaun, Daniel, and Layton all turned to look at Lily in unison…
Loid simply glanced at her before looking away. He seemed to understand her intentions. Meanwhile, Shaun and Daniel were bewildered. They couldn’t grasp the situation Layton quickly snapped to his senses. He was too excited to speak. “Ms. Brooks, are you serious?”
“I don’t like repeating myself” Lily’s gaze was as cold as ever. “In the next couple of days, bring Mr. Weiss Senior to Lagersfield City. Tell everyone about it. Let everyone know that Em going to treat him ”
Without waiting for Lenton’s response, she turned and walked away.
