Chapter 66
It was Tuesday.
With nothing to do before the measuring appointment, Lily kept herself busy organizing the files Nadia had
assigned her.
That evening, she clocked out on time. As soon as she drove up to the entrance of the Bayview Gardens
complex, a figure suddenly darted out in front of her car.
Still affected by the trauma from her recent accident, she slammed on the brakes in fright.
The difference was that when she woke up after the car accident, she repeatedly thought about how no one
should suddenly appear on that stretch of road.
So she concluded that she must have been too exhausted those days, and it was just a hallucination. But this
time, someone was truly standing in front of her car. She steadied her nerves and looked up. Bobby pounded on
the hood with a bang while glaring at her.
"Lily, get out of the car!"
She was still driving one of the Joyner family's backup cars, so it wasn't surprising he could track her down here.
For days, she had ignored Hazel's calls and messages. Bobby must have cto confront her out of desperation
for Hayden's situation.
She undid her seatbelt and stepped out of the car.
In an instant, he lunged forward and gripped her wrist tightly.

Her wrist throbbed with pain, and she frowned. "What's he done?"
"He's cut off every single one of our business deals!" Bobby, who was never one for introspection, didn't pause
to consider his actions.
He knew that saying those words would make Xavier angry. Perhaps Xavier would throw Lily out in a rage. But as
long as Lily used every manipulative tactic to stay, what could Xavier do if she refused to leave the Fulton
family?
The only explanation was that she had failed in her role and had not followed his plan to work with him from
within to control Xavier.
"Whether he does business with our family isn't something I can control."
Lily hadn't expected Xavier to act so swiftly. Cutting off the Joyner family's business ties couldn't be done
overnight. Yet yesterday, he'd still deceived her into coming back to sleep with him. She bit her lip, struggling to
free her arm from Bobby's iron grip. But he only tightened his hold. "I raised you all these years for nothing! You
couldn't save Hayden, and now you're dragging the whole family down. You're going back to the Fulton residence
right now.
"| don't care what it takes-beg, plead, whatever you need to do to get Xavier to forgive you and reinstate our
business!"
The pain drained the color from her lips.
"I'm not going back!" she retorted stubbornly.
It was rush hour, and a small crowd had gathered at the entrance to watch the scene unfold.
Not wanting to enter the complex under everyone's scrutiny, she tried to shake off his grip and walk in the
opposite direction.
Through the crowd, she suddenly noticed a Maybach parked by the street.
Her heart stopped, and her blood felt frozen.
The car window was rolled down just enough to reveal Xavier's penetrating gaze.
He was watching this scene unfold without blinking.
