His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel 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."
