C43 I Was out of His Control.

"Viola, why are you so concerned about the matter between Lydia and Shencheng?" Blain was puzzled by Viola's behavior.

Everyone in the Ellis family had been worried sick over the lack of sales for their clothes.

Especially Blain.

He was in charge of the clothing business.

Blain grabbed Viola with his hand and said with red eyes, "V Viola, don't stare at Lydia, that cripple. Hurry up and think of a way to help me push out that batch of clothes."

"How dare you beg our daughter? If you hadn't offended those wholesalers, we wouldn't have had to give up so easily." Lize, who had been sitting by the bedside, stood up and pushed Blain away.

"Mom, don't do this to Dad!"

Violet secretly glared at Liu Jie, who had a bad tone, and turned around to help Blain up.

"Dad, don't worry. I've already thought of a way to help you deal with this."

"What way?" Blain's eyes were filled with hope.

"You'll know soon enough," Viola said with a mysterious look on her face.

In the past few days, she had made Lydia happy.

This time, she was prepared to turn the tables around.

No!

Not only did he win, but he had also completely overwhelmed her.

"Viola, are you still keeping it a secret from daddy? Hurry up and tell daddy!" Blain was even more curious now that Viola had started a lawsuit.

Viola patted Blain's shoulder confidently. "Dad, I can only tell you that you should put your heart in your stomach. This time, I will definitely save you from the fire."

After all, this was her strong point!

At this moment, in her room.

After Blain left, the fawning smile on Lydia's face disappeared. She casually threw the fruit plate to the side of the table.

Phew!

He finally left.

If she didn't leave now, her smile would freeze on her face.

She secretly let out a sigh of relief and wiped her hands. "Now you can rest in peace. I'll go see my parents. I'll come back to call you after dinner."

After saying that, Lydia turned around and walked out.

Lydia's voice sounded from behind her again. "What do you mean?"

It was really too taxing to talk to a man.

If she was a little slower, she wouldn't be able to keep up with the rhythm.

For example, now...

"Do you want me to participate in the show?" The man raised his eyebrows. "You don't even want to thank me?"

Hearing the man's words, Lydia finally understood what he meant.

She shook her head and refused. "No."

Reece was speechless.

"We're just helping each other out. There's no need to be so polite, right?" She smiled, her lips curled into a smile. "Mr. Tillman, what do you think?"

"…"

Reece ignored the woman's question and walked towards the sofa with a cold expression.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room froze.

Lydia didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this. Instead, she was used to it.

She faked a smile. "Is Mr. Tillman alright this time?"

"Water!" Reece looked down at the magazine and squeezed out a word coldly.

"No."

Reece's hand froze in his grip as he stared at the woman in front of him. "Say it again!"

As the man's gaze fell on her, a strong sense of oppression followed. Lydia's spine tensed up.

In the end, she was still afraid of him.

However, this time, she wasn't as afraid as she was before.

She wanted nothing more than to immediately compromise and flirt with him.

She retracted the last trace of fear and smiled. "Mr. Tillman, you can settle this yourself. If you're really thirsty and don't want to go downstairs to get water, you can just eat some grapes to quench your thirst."

After saying that, Lydia left her parents' room without looking back.

As he thought about the woman's back, Reece's eyebrows furrowed.

After she finished acting, the expression on her face became even faster than anyone else's.

It was so fast that it caught her off guard.

Sitting on the sofa, Reece thought about the distance between her and him. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and took a deep puff.

For some reason, he felt extremely irritated.

It was as if he had lost control of many things recently.

This feeling was really bad.

During lunch, Lydia and Reece came to the living room one after another.

When the man sat down, Janie spoke up. Only then did everyone else sit down.

Although it was lunch, everyone was eating very restrainedly. Everyone had a smile on their faces, but they were all thinking about different things.

"Reece, the Ellis family has been accumulating a bunch of clothes lately. I feel like there's a stone weighing down on my heart. It's like a heart disease." When the meal was about to end, Janie spoke up. "Look, can you help the Ellis family and my grandmother?"

As soon as she said that, everyone except for Lydia turned to look at Reece.

The man put down his bowl and chopsticks elegantly, but he wasn't in a hurry to answer Janie's question.

He glanced at the woman who was eating and drinking calmly beside him. His thin lips parted slightly. "Do you think we should help?"

"Cough … Are you asking me?" Lydia suddenly looked at the man, her eyes filled with astonishment.

"You decide on this matter." Reece nodded.

Lydia was stunned when she heard this.

What was this man doing?

Why was he so casual with such an important matter?

Not only was Lydia shocked, even the people from the Ellis family were stunned.

But soon, everyone accepted it and looked at her. However, their eyes were not filled with hope, but with joy.

Lydia was a member of the Ellis family. There was no need to guess. She would definitely help the family!

Blain's heart skipped a beat.

"Lydia, this is your favorite steamed meat." Blain tried to please her by picking up the food. "When you were five years old, you insisted on eating steamed meat. Second Uncle went to buy it for you."

Blain's eyes turned red as he spoke. "Lydia, I really need you to help me this time!"

Viola's face turned ashen as she looked at her father.

However, seeing that her grandmother, Janie, had tacitly agreed to Blain's plan to rope in Lydia, she could only suppress her anger.

At this moment, her hand under her table clenched, and her nails dug into her flesh.

As if noticing that her expression was not good, her mother, Nigel, came over. "Viola, didn't you say that you had already thought of how to solve the problem with the clothes? Hurry up and say it. If you don't, your uncle and his family will take all the credit!"

"Don't worry, I won't." Viola glanced at Lydia confidently. "The clothes that the Ellis family squeezed out is not a small amount. Reece is a businessman, and this matter is more beneficial for him than for us. He will definitely not interfere."

"But didn't he ask Lydia to decide?" Liu Jie didn't understand.

"If Reece really wanted to help, why would he let a trash like Lydia decide?" Viola's words immediately revealed the truth.

Reece was a shrewd man. How could he let a good-for-nothing like Lydia decide such a large amount of money?

What if this idiot, Lydia, didn't understand the Ellis family?

Tsk, tsk, tsk... She would probably be slapped in the face on the spot!

Ha!

The more she thought about it, the more Liu Jie looked forward to seeing what Lydia would say next.
