The Villain's Wife Chapter 563 Nasty

The Villain's Wife 563 Nasty"This one is given by my husband from Paris and this one is from Milan. I bought this after the fashion week!" Madam Liu smiled affectionately as she showed everyone the new gowns and shoes that she bought from her recent trip. "And oh! Look at this…" she pointed at the statue inside the display box made of glass. "These are crystals that were handcrafted by a genius designer in Milan."

"This is exquisite!" one woman exclaimed. "This makes me wonder. As someone who seemed to be close with the owner of GC Jewels, you must have a lot of collections of dresses like this. Am I right?" the woman beamed excitedly at Lily.
"I do," Lily said. As someone who loves sparkly things, she has an outstanding collection of clothes like this. But, most of them were in Europe as she decided not to bring it because it won't fit the closet in Sky city. However, now that she already has an enormous closet waiting for her in the Mansion, Lily decided to ship it to Hong Kong soon.
"Then… would you mind letting us see?" the woman seemed to be of the same age as Lily. She smiled, her beautiful face lighting up as she asked. Lily lifted an eyebrow in response. Her gaze then landed on Liu Chin's smug face behind the woman. After that incident in the bathroom, Liu Chin had been watching her every move like a hawk waiting for her prey to make a mistake.
"Madam He, Lily already said that her husband does not approve of us going into her closet." Jiang Ruo interjected. Her words made the woman frown.
"But… Madam Jiang… I believe it is always nice to show off some of the things that you don't even wear." The woman named Madam He frowned. She then smiled at Lily. "Everyone here agrees with my opinion but does not have the heart to voice it out because well… they are a little intimidated." She let out a peal of sarcastic laughter.
"Madam He is right." Liu Chin added. "I remember that it is our time to have charity work for a certain charity next month? Why don't we do it at that time too? It would be worth it to pay some money to gain access to Miss Lily's closet." Liu Chin was sitting elegantly at one of the velvet chairs inside the closet. Her kind words earn the nods from the women.
It was quite reasonable. Surely, someone like Lily would not decline such a thing, right? After all, this time, it is already a charity work. Moreover, in front of everyone, saying no is quite embarrasing. Or so Liu Chin thought.
"I'm sure my husband would not agree." Lily watched as the smile on Liu Chin's face disappeared. Did she really thought that doing this would work?
"But it is charity…"
"We support more charity than anyone else in this room," Lily said her gaze straight. "I say… we don't really need more. Especially if it will cost us our privacy."
She then smiled. "But since you are so passionate about charity work. Might I suggest that you personally do it to show your… sincerity? I have a few charities that needed volunteer work from passionate people like you and…" she shifted her gaze at Madam He. "Madam He." She then roamed her gaze at everyone else. "Is anyone else interested to do some volunteer work?"
The room turned silent as disbelief flashed in everyone's eyes. How could Lily just reject a request like that then turn the situation around just like that? These people care about their reputation a lot! If they decline now…
"I would be interested." One woman said. It was followed by another one and a few more nodded their heads at Lily's direction.
"Magnificent!" Lily clapped her hands excitedly. Of course, she did not miss sending a provoking smile at Liu Chin. "I'm sure everyone will be ecstatic to hear that you will help out with the cooking to feed— "
"I'm sorry?" Liu Chin's face turned red. "I thought this is some charity work?"
"Oh, yes… next month an orphanage will open its doors to reputable people like you. Everyone who will join needed to do some work in the orphanage. Simple stuff like cooking and cleaning. While the children will enjoy themselves in a pool or beach." Lily completely made this event up. However, who would dare question the authenticity of her words? Moreover, she can easily ask Zhou Jingren to do this event for her. "Of course… the media will witness such magnificence. I am sure this will only boost the community's name."
"Will you be joining too?"
"Of course I would! I was the one who organized this event! It is just a really small way to make the kids feel special. I mean… knowing that some good mothers and women washed your clothes and blankets… I'm sure they will be ecstatic." Lily's laughter echoed as she watched some women, including Liu Chin and Madam He's faces turned ugly.
Feeling this happy while lying should not be healthy, right?
"Does this mean that you will watch their clothes too?"
"Oh! No… I already have my own assigned task but you girls will be perfect for those menial jobs." She lifted her chin towards Liu Chin as if telling her to argue with her. But wouldn't that damage Liu Chin's reputation?
"Good! Now… we can talk about the details of this volunteer work." Jiang Ruo tried to pretend to be happy. But she too could not hide the surprise in her voice. "Let's continue the tour so we can talk outside of the closet."
Everyone nodded their heads and let out a sigh of relief. Some of them immediately decided not to provoke Lily anymore.
You see, this is the difference between Lily and these women. They were too afraid to 'ruin' their reputation and name. Unlike them, Lily is well known for being nasty in the business world. People see her as treacherous and very difficult to deal with. Her saying no to something like this would not surprise anyone in the business world.
Inside these women were already shooting daggers at Lily. However, on the outside, they were smiling and nodding their heads trying to show everyone that they truly love the idea of doing some volunteer work.
