His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 79

“Alright!” Nathaniel pondered for a while and agreed. However, his call could only go through when he

used a borrowed phone as Lily had blocked his and Melanie‘s numbers.

Meanwhile, Lily had obtained all the research and analysis data and prepared a detailed report, so she

only needed to hand it to Jenny. Lily completed her task ahead of schedule since it was not a big deal

for her. After all, she had talent. Also, she practically lived in a laboratory over the years and had grown

accustomed to it.

Due to her job‘s nature, the laboratory included a shower room. She took a much–needed bath and got

dressed before wiping her hair when her phone rang. “Hello?” Lily answered while wiping her hair,

putting the call on the loudspeaker. “This is Lily speaking. Who‘s calling?” She could not hear well as

she had a big towel on her head. She smelled herself all over to ensure no odd smells lingered

because she did not want Alexander to smell anything weird on her again.

‘She must be doing this on purpose! How long has it been? How dare she pretend not to know me?!‘

Nathaniel clenched his phone as he tried to calm himself. “Lily, it‘s Nate. I have something to discuss

with you. Can we meet?”

Lily looked at the phone when she heard Nathaniel say his name. The call was from an unknown

number. ‘He must have used a different number to make the call.‘ Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“No,” she replied decisively and wanted to hang up. “Don‘t hang up!” Probably sensing something,

Nathaniel hurriedly said, “I asked you out just to talk with you. Now that we have come to this point,

must we really continue down the road? We are still friends, right? I know we have a lot of

misunderstandings, but we can talk it out, can‘t we?”

“Friends?” Lily laughed at his words, “Mr. Hall, you must be dreaming.” Before she could hang up, a

female voice suddenly cut in. “Lily, are you afraid to meet us? You should say it out loud if you have any

dissatisfaction or resentment. Must you play tricks on us?” Melanie said in a very sharp tone. “I think

you are more skilled in playing tricks. I‘m not interested in whatever you want to discuss,” Lily picked up

the phone and spoke directly into the microphone, “Whether or not we meet has nothing to do with me

being afraid of you. You two may have forgotten that your company has sued me. We are now plaintiffs

and defendants, so a private meeting is not a good idea.”

Lily smiled sarcastically and continued, “If you keep making harassment calls like this, I will record it

and use it as evidence in court.” She hung up immediately after that, throwing her phone back into her

locker. She was stunned to see Jenny standing by the door when she looked up.

Jenny hurriedly raised her hand when Lily discovered her. “I didn‘t mean to eavesdrop. I came over

because I learned you were in the dressing room. I didn‘t hear much of your conversation.”

Lily did not mind how much Jenny heard. She took out a comb and started combing her hair.” It doesn’t

matter. It’s nothing important anyway.”

Jenny laughed at her words. “It seems like you are full of confidence. If so, I am relieved. At the very

least, your personal affairs will not affect the company.”

Lily looked at Jenny and said, “Ms. Gray, you have confidence in me now?”

“That was before. After seeing your recent work performance. “Jenny paused briefly before changing

her sentence, “Oh, right. I have read your recent analysis report. You did a good job.”
