His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 25

"It’s fine, Liv. Listen to me. You've been busy because of work for far too long. You should take a break since you’ll get busy again in a few days. By then, you won't be able to rest even if you wanted to," Lily said half-jokingly.

Since Lily insisted, Olivia stopped persuading her. " Okay then. Oh right, you know I have two phones. I turned off the one for work. If you need me, call my personal phone number."

"Yeah. Have fun!" After hanging up, Lily noticed Alexander gave her a deep look.

She looked down at her appearance, but nothing seemed to be out of place. "What's wrong?"

"Are you asking her to leave because you don't want her to get involved?" Alexander hit the nail on the head, stunning Lily before she let out a smile.

"Not entirely. Liv was my assistant while I worked in MN Inc., so she’s familiar with all my products and research outcomes. This time, Nathaniel is determined to make me take the blame for everything, so Liv would be the first person he would approach for information if he wanted to bring up the past. If so, she will have no choice but to tell them everything, regardless of whether or not she wants to, because she is still MN Inc.'s employee. It would be better for her not to be around."

While talking, Lily did not neglect her food. Some things were indeed expensive for a reason. Her meal possessed an exquisite and delicious appearance with a first-class taste. It had been a long since she had time to sit down and enjoy her meal.

Hence, she paid no attention to her image or that Alexander was sitting right before her. She simply ate as she usually would when she was alone.

With a faint smile on his lips, Alexander just stared at Lily as she ate. It was as if he could be full by just watching her eat.

"You seem pretty confident.” Initially, Alexander was a little apprehensive about Lily's plans. Still, after listening to what she said, he realized she was not acting impulsively. Instead, she had thought over her entire plan carefully and thoroughly.

Lily stopped digging her spoon into her food as she looked up at Alexander. "There’s one more thing I hope you can agree to."

"What is it?" Alexander seemed to be full already. He placed his utensils down, gently wiping the corners of his lips with a napkin as he waited for Lily to continue.

"I-I want to bring Liv with me to Rebirth." After a short pause, Lily continued, "I'm doing it for myself, but Liv is also a competent person. Plus, I'm used to working with her. I can promise you we will bring great results to the company. If not, I will..." Lily even raised a hand as if she was making an oath.

"What will you do?" Alexander asked, interrupting her words.
