His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 33

Lily smiled faintly and looked at Melanie. "Are you sure that's what you want? Do you want me to let the cat out of the bag?" She was so calm, making Melanie feel flustered.

What was Lily plotting? What did she want exactly? She had laid all the cards on the table and could not bear to back down. Melanie gritted her teeth and bravely replied, "Don't make a fool of yourself, Lily. I've done nothing wrong. I can’t say I'm the most talented person in this industry, but I am undoubtedly one who works hard. Everyone knows how much I've done in this company over the past few years. You can't just come up here and spew nonsense."

"Melanie," Nathaniel was on her side, gently squeezing her forearm. He turned to look at Lily again, cleared his throat, and said, "I apologize. The purpose of this press conference was to explain everything to the competition’s organizing committee, friends, and consumers who care about us. However, we did not make enough arrangements, nor did Ms. Christian have enough time to prepare mentally. We..."

"Do you want evidence?" Lily interjected. Her four simple words immediately attracted the media's attention to herself. She picked up her phone, saying," Since everyone is asking for evidence, this is the most straightforward form. Here you go."

"Excuse me, Ms. Christian, what is this evidence you're talking about?" Someone asked. Things were becoming more exciting as the tension increased.

Neither side would give in, and it felt bewildering. The reporters were unsure which side was true and which was false. Whatever the case, both parties were good at acting.

"The evidence is..." Lily was about to speak when Melanie instinctively stood up and interjected, "All MN Inc. employees can be witnesses. They can prove the perfumer and who created all those compositions! Since we used to be classmates, I wanted to save you some dignity.

"However, it seems that you're too full of yourself. Not only are you unwilling to admit your mistakes, but you are also confounding right and wrong. I’m sick and tired of your games, Lily. See you in court!" After speaking, Melanie threw the microphone, got up, and left.

Such drama!

Although the argument was intense, no one expected her to storm off. Not to mention the reporters present, Nathaniel was also quite taken aback. He instinctively reached out to grab Melanie but was a step behind.

Everyone looked at Melanie's back as she walked out, so it would be rude if Nathaniel stood up to chase her. Still, he could not completely ignore this and had to apologize, "I'm so sorry, everyone. This will bring an end to today's press conference. Thank you for

coming."

He motioned to get up and leave but angrily glared at Lily before doing so. Then he turned sideways, said a few words to the people around him, and chased Melanie without looking back.

Meanwhile, Lily simply stood there, facing many flashes and pairs of eyes. She became the audience's focus. Nathaniel had just left her there to face the media alone. She knew early on that he never cared much about her.

"Ms. Christian, it seems Ms. Thayer wants to file a lawsuit against you. How do you feel about that?" "What was the evidence you mentioned just now?"
