The trio was stunned when they read the apology post.
How could this be called an apology statement? It was more like a shift-the-blame statement. Nathaniel wrote a long article, but the trio could only summarize it as follows:
Firstly, Nathaniel had spent the past few days carefully checking, scrutinizing, and researching the experiential records and could finally prove that the previous products were indeed Lily’s work and not Melanie’s.
The reason for the previous misunderstanding was because of Melanie’s deception. He was also deceived and did not know the truth. Now that Nathaniel knew, he deeply regretted it and wanted to apologize to Lily.
Secondly, the relationship between him, Melanie, and Lily was a personal issue, and Nathaniel did not want to discuss it publicly. However, due to everyone’s concern, he wanted to make it clear that he had no regrets as he was in love.
Nathaniel wrote a long article with the conclusion that he was willing to apologize to Lily with utmost sincerity and would accept any of her decisions, retaliation, or do anything she wanted, to make up for his mistake. He was willing to cooperate and satisfy Lily as he owed her.
The whole article sounded sincere but was full of lies. The general public did not know if it was true or not and was even more oblivious to how much of it was the truth. For example, it was true that the previous products were Lily’s, but did Melanie deceive Nathaniel?
“F*ck!” Olivia cursed out loud. That was the only response she had for Nathaniel’s apology statement.
“I’m starting to admire him!” Jenny shook her head and laughed.
“You admire him?! Why? He’s a shameless person!” Olivia felt enraged, “He’s also a liar!”
“He does have the talent to lie with a straight face! Also, he’s quick to take action and knows he must pretend to be weak when he meets a strong enemy. Nathaniel knows he can no longer hide the truth and thus mixes it up with lies.
“The most difficult thing to distinguish in this world is when things are half-truth and half-lie. Lies within truth and truth interlaced with lies, who knows what’s the truth and what isn’t?”
