Chapter 912: Chapter 915: Attending the Matchmaking Banquet (2) Chapter 912: Chapter 915: Attending the Matchmaking Banquet (2) “Mr. Lucas, there’s no need for formality. I think there shouldn’t be anyone who would trouble .”
Lily was touching up her makeup behind and didn’t think much before she spoke.
Upon hearing her call him that, Benjamin Lucas IX was stunned for quite a while before he turned around stiffly to remind her, “Young Lady, from now on you can just call Benjamin. Really, really, really, you don’t have to call by that title anymore…”
He had brought it upon himself, and now he had to bear the consequences even if it ant crying over them!
Right now, Benjamin Lucas IX wished he could kill his forr self who got into this ss.
“Okay then, Benjamin. Tell , how exactly has Mr. Lucas planned things out?”
Lily had finished applying her makeup, and the car had arrived outside the hotel. She was just waiting for Benjamin to finish explaining, so she could go in.
When it ca to business, Benjamin imdiately beca serious.
He adjusted his glasses and handed a set of docunts to Lily.
“This is the new identity Mr. Lucas has prepared for you. If anyone asks, you just stick to the story in here. Don’t worry, Mr. Lucas has taken care of everything, it won’t be exposed.”
Lily took the docunts and read them softly.
“April Howard, 26 years old, grew up abroad, the treasured daughter of the CEO of the Howard Group. She attended prestigious schools her entire life. After graduating from university, she worked for her family’s company. She’s never been in a relationship, as pure as a blank slate, and her background is spotless. Both parents are alive, and there’s no ssy situation with illegitimate children in the family. Looking at it, she indeed seems like a suitable match for Ethan Wilson.”
Benjamin spoke obsequiously, “Yes, Mr. Lucas prepared this especially for you. This Miss Howard actually died abroad a while ago. The Howard couple had only this daughter and adored her deeply; the family property was ant to be all hers. But if Miss Howard is no more, the inheritance might fall to distant relatives. So…”
Lily instantly understood.
The only daughter had died, and they were supposed to hand over a lifeti of hard-earned assets to distant relatives.
No wonder Mr. Howard wasn’t willing to accept that, so when Aidan Lucas approached him with a plan to create a new identity for Lily, the supposedly deceased April Howard could be brought back to life.
Lily knew that there must have been many sacrifices Aidan Lucas had made behind the scenes.
After all, if she really beca April Howard and married Aidan Lucas, the Howard Group would also beco part of her dowry.
To prevent the Howard Group from losing out, Aidan Lucas would certainly have to financially support it in secret.
It was just too bad…
Lily closed the folder and looked at Benjamin.
“Ethan’s arrangents are good, but they’re not needed. I have a better identity already.”
“A better identity? What identity?”
Benjamin was completely puzzled. Arianna Brooks was just an ordinary person returning from abroad; how could she have a better identity than what Mr. Lucas had arranged?
“Well… it’s just a bit better,” Lily thought for a mont, then tilted her head with a smile.
Without giving Benjamin a chance to understand, she opened the car door and walked out.
Seeing Arianna suddenly get out of the car, Benjamin imdiately followed.
“Arianna, don’t rush in. The invitation is still with …”
Without an invitation, how was Arianna supposed to get in?
Lily initially didn’t want to bring Benjamin with her. He was too conspicuous, but seeing him earnestly catching up, she reluctantly stood still, waiting for him.
Watching him walk over, Lily muttered softly, “Who says you can’t enter without an invitation? They don’t know where we are.”
Above the hotel, the grand emblem of the Reddington family.
Did she need an invitation to enter this hotel?
