Chapter 579: Chapter 578 Tremble

Chapter 578 Tremble

Today, Lily went to The Peak to check out some constructions that Zhou Jingren insisted to have. It has been days since Lily saw the place so she took some time to check everything. Moreover, Lily is off to an important mission today.

Since her last conversation with Jiang Ruo, the latter had been sending her texts and updating her about certain charities. This time, she did not invite Lily and forced her to do anything. Instead, she updated her about certain activities that their community is hosting.

While Lily found this funny, she would sometimes send a reply and appreciate the older woman's efforts and dedication. It was obvious that Jiang Ruo wanted to make herself and her family look good. And this is not Lily's business anymore.

To Lily, acknowledging insignificant things like this would only waste her energy. To her, Jiang Ruo is not a friend nor an enemy. She was just someone that she met. There is no point in wasting her brain cells to someone like this.

However, today is different. Last night, Jiang Ruo sent her a text about having brunch with some women in the community. 

"Lily! I was not expecting you to come!" Jiang Ruo greeted Lily with the same smile that she always has on her face. She then gestured for Lily to take a seat next to her.

"Elder sister… did you forget to inform us that Miss Lily will join us today?" Yu Yanwan's shrill voice echoed inside the private room of the restaurant. "I thought this is for everyone living in…" she did not continue her words as she narrowed her eyes at Lily.

Technically, Lily is someone living in The Peak while she… Yu Yanwan is not. She eyed the other four women with them and stayed quiet when she saw them smiling at Lily. She had forgotten that these people were so used to faking their faces that this had become a habit. These women always had smiles plaster all over their faces as they roll their eyes inwardly.

"Is there a problem… Miss Yu?" Lily smiled.

"Sister Yanwan… we should just forget about what happened in the old man's birthday. It wasn't Miss Lily's fault that the old man liked her gift more than he liked yours." Madam He added fuel to the fire. She then sent a meaningful gaze at Liu Chin who was also joining them. "Isn't this the best time to forgive and forget?" These women didn't know that Lily and Yu Yanwan met a few days back at the old man's house. So they immediately assumed that Yu Yanwan does not like Lily for the embarrassment that they received because of her gift.

As expected, the thought of what happened at the birthday party immediately made Yu Yanwan frowned. How could she miss the poison in Madam He's words? She wanted to rub it in her face that the old man liked Lily's gift more than he liked her gift! What is more hateful is the fact that she could say nothing against her words!

They were already suggesting that they forgive and forget. Saying no will only make them look down on her. Yu Yanwan knew that this woman only wanted to provoke her into fighting with Lily. And she would not allow that.

"Madam He is right," Lily nodded. "Forgiving and forgetting are fantastic. Unless that involves someone cheating on their husband, then… that is a different story." She laughed. "Of course… what happened at the party is not comparable to that terrible— terrible thing." She dramatically widened her eyes. "Isn't that right… Madam He?"

"Lily… why would you even mention such a thing?" Madam Liu answered. Lily's appearance was unexpected. However, she would not let this ruin her day. This lunch was supposed to be for another charity that they were planning. That is why she, Liu Chin, Madam He, and even Yu Yanwan is here because they were the ones who are organizing this charity. "We are here to discuss the charity and not sinful things like that."

Lily only smiled at Madam Liu. According to her research. Madam Liu is a very religious woman. While she loves luxury and shopping, she spends most of her money donating to Christian organization that helps the poor and people in need.

Don't get Lily wrong. She has nothing against religion. However, she found most of these religious people as hypocrites. She eyed Madam He and gave her a knowing look. She then wondered what would happen once this Madam Liu knew that his son is… screwing with the married Madam He. Would she ask her husband to write him off his will? Would she fight with Madam He?

A fight… would be entertaining to see. Lily frowned inwardly. A pregnant woman like her should not wish people to fight, no?

Lily chuckled inwardly when she saw Madam He's ashen face. "Of course." Lily uttered while staring at the older woman's eyes. Originally, Lily was not planning to attend this brunch. In fact, she already declined Jiang Ruo's offer. However, she immediately changed her mind when she knew that Yu Yanwan would also attend the meeting.

Would Lily really miss the opportunity to provoke Yu Yanwan into doing something? Of course not!

"It's alright mother… Miss Lily, we are actually here because of a certain charity event two months from now. It was something that…" she started explaining about the purpose of the charity. "I would assume that you are here because you decided to… donate some funds?" Liu Chin gave her a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

Liu Chin knew that Lily would decline and would …

"Of course!" Lily's smile interrupted her thoughts. "Money is not a problem. I can always give some donations to children who needed an education." Lily said. 

As someone who grew up in a very tough environment, Lily didn't have a very good educational background. This topic is very important to her. Aside from her donations to various charities, she also had a lot of scholarship opportunities for college students.

"Really?" Liu Chin asked, surprised flashed in her eyes.

Lily nodded in response. "I am very particular about learning. This is the reason why I despise people who pay their way to get a degree. Why not give that money to someone who needed that education?" A tit for tat. Since she already knows everyone's dirty little secrets, Lily decided to have a little fun. She gave Liu Chin a provoking smile. "This reminds me… I heard that you will graduate this year. May I know your plans after your graduation?" she asked Liu Chin.

This Liu Chin is pretty lucky. She was born into a rich family that pampers her and her brother. Growing up, this woman spent most of her time shopping and building social networks with other rich kids from all over the world. However, despite all this, Liu Chin was forced by her mother to go to a university to study. 

And since Liu Chin does not want to take the exams, her mother used their influence to get her into university. Since her IQ and extracurricular activities didn't pass the universities requirements, her mother paid a lot to let her in.

Her mother, Madam Liu cheated, and Liu Chin knew.

And watching them tremble under Lily's gaze is really entertaining. Lily wondered if this was because she is pregnant… or she is just turning more and more like her true self every single day.
