Chapter 445 The “Mutt” in James's Eyes
Quincy was certain that if James had even the slightest care for Lily, he never would have forced her into a
divorce.
He must despise her, she thought, counting the days until he could marry his rightful fiancée, Mathilda
So, when he stepped in earlier, it could only have been because he thought Patrick was making trouble in a Luke
Corp jewelry store-not because he was defending Lil
After all, Lily’s back had been to him. If he hated her as much as the rumors id, he prolly hadn't even recognized
her.
With that logic, her confidence swelled.
She quickly smoothed her slightly mussed bangs, forcing what she thought was her most captivating smile. “Mr.
James, | know Mathilda is your beloved fiancée. I'm Quincy, her closest friend. You can just callQuincy.”
The memory of Patrick’s hungry stare at Lily burned in her chest. She wanted nothing more than to see Lily
humiliated here and now.
And she was certain James, who supposedly loathed Lily, would gladly help her.
She would show that mutt the vast gulf between them-the distance between clouds and mud.
Pouting in what she imagined was a delicate, pitiful way, she cooed, “Mr. James, my face really hurts. Lily's like a
rabid dog. | was just browsing jewelry when she suddenly went crazy, slapped my face until it swelled, and even
dirtied my shoes. These shoes were a gift from Mr. Quinn-one hundred and eighty thousand yuan. This mutt
must apologize and paydouble. I'm not the type to push people too hard..”
Her lashes lowered coyly as she threw him a sultry glance. “I know she’s been thrown out of the Luke family and
is probably too broke to pay for myshoes. She's always liked licking other people's shoes-if she cleans mine with
her tongue, | could let her pay a little less
In her mind, it was perfect strategy.

The enemy of her enemy was a friend. James had been so eager to divorce Lily; it proved he despised her. This
way, Quincy could appear magnanimous while helping him vent his disgust. He would surely appreciate it.
From there, maybe Moore Corp could strike up business with Luke Corp. If that happened, her own value would
soar-she could even dump Patrick and marry into a richer, more powerful family.
She fully expected him to praise her, maybe even order Lily to her knees.
Instead, she saw him step forward and... carefully, almost reverently, take Lily’s hand in his.
Quincy froze.
Wasn't he supposed to have discarded Lily without a second thought? Why was he touching this disgusting
woman at all?

Unless... he meant to crash her hand?
But no-she heard a tone she'd never imagined from him, low and warm with concern. “Why's your palin so red?
Does it hurt?”
What?
Quincy's mind stalled.
Was that human speech?
She was the one slapped, her face swelling, and she was Mathilda’s de was hurt-he was worried the hand that
hit her might be sore.

“Quincy, | remember you.”
Her heart leapt at those words.
Straightening her back, she shot Lily a smug, thunting look. If he remembered her, surely it was because she'd
left an impression-he wouldn't protect Lily now.
But before her satisfaction could
