Semua Bab Spoiled by Mr. Russell: Bab 411 - Bab 420

“Mom! I’m sorry, I made a mistake! I thought we’d surely succeed, but this happened. I didn’t think that Mel would be dumb enough to kidnap Lily. I had no idea she would do such a thing! Plus…” Nathaniel remembered something and stole a glance at Eloise. “I didn’t know that Frank was a drug addict. He has a terrible reputation worldwide!”Nathaniel only found out everything after he did some investigation upon hearing that Melanie was in trouble. Everything made sense to him now. He knew the reason he could not get in touch with Melanie and lost contact with Frank—the cops in Westwood had captured them.“That’s enough. He lied to me, too.” Eloise rubbed her temples, her head throbbing at the mention of Frank.She was not careful enough back then. To her knowledge, Frank was smart and talented. He had also won several awards in the past. Little did she know his creations were the results of plagiarism, and his reputation was terrible!“He did it to you too…” Nathaniel gasped and sta

Eloise raised her hand to knock his head, somewhat annoyed that Nathaniel was not smart enough. “You’re the company's legal representative, so your stance, in this case, is of extreme importance! You must understand that you cannot get rid of your involvement in this issue no matter what you do.“If you choose to support her, that means your morals are questionable. If you cut off all ties with her, the public won’t think that you’re fair and selfless, but they’d say that you’re heartless for leaving her alone when things got tough.”“This…” Upon hearing that, Nathaniel’s expression turned grim. “No matter what I do, I’d look like the bad guy!”“What else do you want?” The mention of this made Eloise mad. “This is all your fault! This matter could only be dealt with in a low-key manner, and you should not reveal too much because the more you say, the more problems will arise. Also, behave yourself these days. Stop visiting bars and getting drunk! Do you want to tarnish your name eve

“Everything is perfect for him, but others slandered me so badly!” Lily whined angrily.Amidst the comments, she saw a few netizens who tried to explain the truth on her behalf. They said that Nathaniel was only putting up a show to appear heartbroken. There was someone who even analyzed her fallout with MN Inc. in detail. Lily did not know the person, but their explanation was close to the truth.However, most netizens’ criticism had drowned out such an article that outlined the situation’s truth. The other netizens called the writer a troll, and some even told the writer to shut up because even Lily was staying silent regarding the matter.“You want to get back at them?” Alexander asked, leaning down as he placed the tablet down.“Of course! I don’t care if he wants to put on a show! Nate can pretend he’s sad or whatever he wishes, but dragging me into this mess isn’t the right way to go about it.” Lily puffed her cheeks. “Besides, I must throw the blame back to him for the few n

“Lily isn’t even saying anything about the matter. Why are you guys making a fuss about it?”Their arguments were invalid because many netizens soon posted their own videos of the scene to prove that the earlier video was real and not fabricated. Some even suggested that people could visit the office building and ask around, as there were many witnesses that day.The embarrassing fact that Nathaniel was taken away by the authorities was revealed, and people started making fun of him because of this.Nathaniel was upset by this turn of events, but he assumed that a random netizen was responsible because he had not seen Lily's response. Hence, he retweeted the video and even quoted it with “My love is fearless.”Nathaniel managed to come up with that after pondering for a long time, thinking that he sounded pretty cool.‘What’s the big deal? I broke up with Melanie before pursuing Lily, so I have nothing to hide. Mom taught me that if I want to win people’s favor, I must first show

Nathaniel broke out in a cold sweat in his office as he stared at his monitor intensely. He never imagined that Lily would have such a trick up her sleeve. He did not expect Olivia to have a record of the research data either. “No! I can still turn this around!” Nathaniel stumbled to his feet. He remembered getting Melanie to rewrite a copy of the notes when they wanted to sue Lily back then. It could serve as evidence for him this time around.After digging around the entire room, he found the new notebook buried deep in one of the drawers. He put it on the table, preparing to take a picture of it, but he froze abruptly. Nathaniel had forgotten an important detail. When Lily left, she left problems behind for him, too, because part of the records was incorrect. They were not glaring mistakes, so Melanie copied everything without making corrections since it was impossible for her to find them in the thick books. If he published the notes he had now, netizens might find those mis
