All Chapters of Spoiled by Mr. Russell: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Nathaniel took the lead in turning the microphone to his side to strike preemptively. "Of course, it’s not considered stealing. In any case, Lily is a member of our company. She has worked as Ms. Thayer’s assistant and has participated in creating fragrances to some extent for many years.“I don't want to define it as stealing or plagiarism this time because it sounds atrocious. I can only say that in this society, in our industry, it is understandable that we can’t control everything. We are willing to give Lily a chance, and we hope MN Inc. can bring us better compositions in the future."Nathaniel had some experience socializing and dealing with the media over the years. His remarks were neither humble nor arrogant, snobby but sincere. He understood and protected the employees who betrayed his company.The reporters felt moved while casting a contemptuous look toward Lily. The current situation was apparent. It was clear that Lily was unwilling to be an assistant and then stole

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 e

Nathaniel could not believe his ears, "What did you say?" "It's not that I didn't think about giving you a chance, but even now, you still want me to take the blame. Nate, do I look that stupid?" Lily's voice was icy. There was a sarcastic smile on the corners of her lips. Nathaniel felt a chill in his heart. He suddenly felt that the woman before him was a stranger. She was no longer the person he had known for several years. She became so sharp, elusive, and very unmanageable."Lily, what do you mean? You don't believe me anymore?" "I trusted you so much that I don’t even know how I was persuaded." Lily paused, then did not bother explaining, "I'm now very thankful for not signing a formal contract with you. From today onward, your MN Inc. has nothing to do with me." She emphasized the word ‘your’ as she raised her foot to walk past him and leave. Nathaniel grabbed her arm. He had not realized what she meant, but he knew he could not let her go yet."Are you still blamin

Nathaniel gradually put away his worried and concerned expression as his face turned sullen. He stared at Lily and asked, “Are you threatening me?”“I only want what I deserve.” Lily’s request was straightforward. She was not greedy but could no longer hand over what belonged to her to others.“Haha.” Nathaniel felt a little stuffy, so he casually loosened his tie and unbuttoned his shirt’s top button. He stared down at Lily, arms akimbo, saying, “What do you deserve? Over the past few years, I paid for all your food, clothes, and rent. What else do you think you deserve?”Lily looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face before her and thought of how ridiculous Nathaniel looked. How could this man so casually assert his reasoning to such a degree so righteously? It angered her to the point where she laughed aloud.However, she was not angry at Nathaniel but at herself. How blind was she to fall in love and become fascinated by such a man over the years? She wondered why she could no

“Why are you here?” Even though she asked, Lily was quite pleased to see Alexander at that moment.Alexander glanced at Lily, thoughtfully turned down the air conditioner in the back console, took a shawl, and put it around her. “Did you get into trouble lately?” By his estimation, Lily should have exited the building long ago. Alexander almost wanted to get out of the car to check on her himself.“It’s no big deal.” Lily gestured with her fingers, indicating no problem, but after raising her hand, she pulled her injury and involuntarily hissed. Hearing her gasp, Alexander frowned and pulled Lily closer. “Are you hurt?” His expression was grim, his tone even grimmer. The fact that he was pissed showed on his face.Lily quickly explained, “N-No, I just haven’t stretched my muscles for a long time. I feel a little sore, that’s all.” Lily was afraid Alexander would not believe her, so she turned to face him, saying, “If you don’t believe me, just look. Where am I injured?”Alexander s
