Chương 845: Despicable

Meanwhile, Lily and Zhou Jingren were not aware of Harringfort's thoughts. Madam Luo was still unconscious so the couple had decided to keep Claude while waiting for Madam Luo to wake up. The doctor had clearly said that she might not survive the stab but Lily was still hopeful about it. Hence, Lily decided to talk to Claude again.

"What— what do you mean?" he asked, frowning. "You— Are you saying that you lied to me? Everything was a lie?"

Lily pursed her lips in response before she slowly nodded. This reaction was already expected. After all, she had psychologically tortured the young man just to get what she wanted. At the end of the day, Lily was aware that she was in the wrong. 

But in her book, the wrong and the right usually depends on the societal norms that each person was used to. What could be wrong in others' books, could be right in Lily's book. So she had no reason to justify her actions.
