Lily admitted that she changed the formulas before leaving MN Inc. to mess things up for them, but she was unsure of the damage it could cause them.
"It sounds like you’re confident about this. There's nothing I should be worried about then," Alexander said, his gaze filled with adoration for Lily while he caressed her hair.
Lily turned to look at him. She pulled his arm over her shoulders and then laid down on his lap, saying in a cutesy manner, "That's not it. You need to be ready at all times to support me. What if they bully me? You must get a team of lawyers to defend me in court!"
'She sure knows how to tease me. Everything she did and each of her gazes could strike me right in my heart. Seeing her this way makes me want to give the world to her.'
"Does this mean I must do everything you ask?"
"Aren't you willing to do that for me?" Lily frowned, looking aggrieved. However, her bright gaze gave her away, revealing her mischief.
"I'm at your disposal, my lady," Alexander smirked as he leaned down to kiss her. The worst thing about kissing in such a position was that it hurt the neck-Alexander's neck, in this case.
Finally, he could not bear the ache anymore and
straightened his back while massaging his neck. At the sight of her complacent smile, he grumbled. "Are you laughing at me?”
"I wouldn't dare to do that!" Before Lily could continue her words, a beep sound came from her laptop, indicating that she had received notifications. She got up quickly and took a look.
Most of them were comments to her post earlier, while some were private messages. After all, her post was related to the perfume industry, so some netizens soon realized her post was about perfume formulas.
Some netizens might have been perfumers or researchers of other companies, but none had yet to notice that the post contained formulas from past MN Inc. products.
However, an employee of MN Inc. would realize it right away. Someone sent her a message, questioning her identity and motives for doing so. The other party requested that she delete this post immediately as well.
There was a group of netizens who discussed the formulas too. It was late in the evening, so most were already back from work and had nothing much to do at home. They found Lily's post exciting, so they gathered in the comment section, contributing to the liveliness of the website.
Some were quick to act and had already created samples based on the formulas. It was pointless to delete the post now because everyone had already seen it anyway. Some people probably took screenshots of the formulas.
Alexander scooted over and held Lily's hand, clicking on the mouse to log out of the website. Then he closed the tab and shut down the laptop.
"You've done what is necessary, so you shouldn't bother with the rest. You've thrown the bait, and the fish will bite soon."
Lily agreed with him. She was about to log off, but Alexander was quicker to make a move. Lily was not anxious, but some people would be. Soon after turning off her laptop, she got a call from Nathaniel.
