The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 255: Chapter 252: She Woke Up

The next day.

Early morning.

Matilda Yale was cleaning up the boiled shrimp that had fallen all over the floor, which was caused by Lily Clarke flipping the plate in anger.

They were thrown all over the floor, not because the shrimp weren’t fresh enough, but because Lily was very angry today.

All because her posts about her injury on Weibo had more comments and likes than the ones forwarding Elliana Lyle’s posts.

Lily had been staying in the hospital to maintain her public image, and she often got angry due to her dissatisfaction with the hospital’s facilities.

Now, even a slight displeasure could cause her to explode.

After tidying up, she put the picked-up shrimp into a plastic bag, ready to throw them away.

At this moment, Lily, who was doing her makeup at the small table, called out to her.

"Where are you going?"

She replied, "I’m throwing away the shrimp."

Lily turned around, looked her up and down, and sneered, "Wouldn’t that be a waste? You eat them."

Having said that, she turned back to continue touching up her foundation, not forgetting to remind her again, "Finish it."

This command immediately filled her heart with anger, as if her face was being burned by fire.

It was a blatant humiliation.

She was hired as an assistant, not a servant.

But last time she resisted, her family suffered consequences, and after seeking help,

she discovered a nest of mice with snakes, all living in harmony.

Now, she dared not have any thoughts of resistance and could only wait for her contract to expire in four years.

Although eating the shrimp was Lily’s way of humiliating her, she had no choice but to accept it.

The floor was mopped clean, and the shrimp were shelled, so eating them shouldn’t cause any stomach issues.

Lily was doing her makeup today to meet Norman Bennett at the hotel, so she applied her makeup meticulously, aiming for a no-makeup look.
