His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 87



Chapter 87

Melanie was flabbergasted because Nathaniel had never treated her like that before. Nathaniel started

speaking softly and coaxed Melanie patiently, even if she were petty. Nathaniel forgot to be discreet

and not make a scene because he was shocked. He just snapped. He turned to look at Melanie and

felt distressed, wanting to sweet–talk her. However, he also felt helpless at that moment. He sighed,

saying, “I‘m a mess right now. I‘ll think of something soon. You should go home and rest.”

After speaking, Nathaniel left Melanie alone at the cafe. Melanie was angry and hateful. She had good

luck in her love life and career over the past years. Melanie could be famous and kick Lily aside with

one foot while sitting tight as MN Inc.‘ s first lady. She had it all planned and would have announced her

retirement later.

The company had grown, so Melanie could spend more money to hire a few helpful staff members. By

then, would MN Inc. still need Lily? Afterward, Melanie could finally enjoy peace of mind. However, she

never expected Lily to get in her way when she was just a tiny step away from success.

Now, MN Inc. was facing a crisis, and Nathaniel‘s attitude was also significantly changing. It was all

because of Lily. If it were not for her making trouble, MN Inc. would not be in such a predicament.

After leaving the cafe, Lily said goodbye to James in the parking lot, “Thank you very much for your

help today, Mr. Hudson. I‘m sorry for troubling you.” She sincerely thanked and shook hands with

James.

James said while shaking Lily‘s hand, “It‘s my job, so it wasn‘t too much trouble. It‘s just...” After

hesitating for a while and meeting Lily‘s suspicious gaze, James continued, “I somewhat understood

what you said earlier. Those two took your formula for themselves and falsely accused you of stealing.”

“Yes, but we can‘t use what I said as evidence in court, can we?” Lily asked with a faint smile.

“Unfortunately, we can‘t.” James nodded, surprised by Lily‘s calmness. “You don‘t seem worried about

the lawsuit, Ms. Christian.”

“As you just saw, the other two are the plaintiff, and I‘m the defendant. Have you ever seen a plaintiff

beg a defendant? If not, then I shouldn‘t be worried.” Lily‘s tone was relaxed, not showing an ounce of

anxiety.

James felt persuaded and laughed as he replied, “Yes, I‘ve been in the business for many years, but

I’ve never seen a plaintiff beg a defendant. Since that‘s the case, I won‘t need to worry about you.

However, may I ask you something?”

“Of course.”

“Is the formula those two referred two honestly yours or...” James did not finish his sentence, but Lily

knew what he meant.

She smiled. “There‘s a saying that one must not harm others but must also keep their guard up.

Although it turned out I didn‘t know who those two really were, and my guard against them came a little

late, it‘s better late than never, Don’t you agree?”

James understood what Lily meant and deepened his smile. “Indeed! Also, you won‘t hurt yourself if

you don‘t intend to hurt others. You impress me, Ms. Christian.”

“Don‘t flatter me, Mr. Hudson. You‘re professional, knowledgeable, and discerning right from wrong. I This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

still have much to learn from you in the future!” “I‘m pleased to have met you, Ms. Christian!” James

reached out to shake Lily‘s hand again. This time more enthusiastically.

Lily shook hands with him and smiled, “Likewise.”

After saying goodbye to James, Lily planned to take a taxi to Rebirth. Jenny did mention that Lily did

not have to rush to work, but since Lily had officially accepted the job, she hoped to adapt to the new

environment as soon as possible. Jenny also said that Lily could officially enter the laboratory after Lily

settled her personal affairs.
