Chapter 41

Nathaniel was not kidding. Soon, he put up a lawyer's letter on the company homepage in which he threatened legal action against Lily, demanded an apology, and sought compensation for the company's financial losses.Not only was the letter posted on MN Inc.’s website, but platforms such as Twitter and Reddit all had the same statement. MN Inc. appeared to be taking this seriously. Given that MN Inc. was taking such a firm stance while Rebirth was utterly silent, the public opinion quickly became one-sided. Although the press conference events were bewildering, and some people had begun to believe in Lily's innocence, they soon changed their minds after reading MN Inc.'s statement.If Rebirth was innocent, why were they silent? Why did Lily fail to produce any favorable evidence?Faced with MN Inc.’s accusation, Lily maintained a low profile, but she answered by reposting MN Inc.’s statement and lawyer’s letter with the caption, “Bring it on.”The caption seemed understated but

However, Rebirth was just a subsidiary of La Beauté Group, and its relationship with the parent company was ambiguous. No one from Rebirth had yet to express any support for Lily.Olivia felt uneasy. Under Nathaniel's constant urging, she returned to the office to investigate what had transpired.Meanwhile, Lily officially reported for duty at Rebirth. Although they had negotiated a deal, the contract had not been signed. An appointment was made the day before for Lily to come in for work. According to Alexander, Lily should familiarize herself with the company before officially starting work. Owing to Lily's vehement insistence, Alexander did not intervene too much. He left it to Edward Sullivan to handle Lily's onboarding. Even so, Lily knew that her arrival would not be peaceful.Walking through the office, Lily arrived at the general manager's office. Three people were waiting inside, two of whom she had met."Mr. Will."Sitting in the middle was George Will, the general m

George could not tolerate others questioning him like this. “Ms. Gray, mind your words,” George said with a darkened expression.“There’s nothing wrong with my words. I’m just speaking my mind. I don’t know Ms. Christian’s background, but I will never let a plagiarist into my team!” After saying this, Jenny Gray turned and left the office.“M-Ms. Gray! W-Wait…” The human resources manager could not stop Jenny and sighed embarrassedly. “Ms. Gray is short-tempered and blunt with her words, Mr. Will. However, she is doing this for the good of the company. Please don’t mind her attitude.”“Would she still be the project manager if I minded her attitude?” George shook his head and turned toward Lily, saying, “You shouldn't take her words seriously too. That’s just how Ms. Gray is, but you’ll get to know her better. She has a kind heart, even though she has a bad temper and is overly blunt. I think you two will be able to work together and get along well in the future.”‘Get along, huh?’

Anthony opened the door and peeked his head in. ”Mr. Hall, Olivia Hart is here.” “Let her in.” Nathaniel nodded. Olivia put away her phone awkwardly and entered the office with a forced smile. ‘Forget it. It’s better to check the situation first before telling Lily.’“M-Mr. Hall.” After addressing Nathaniel rather stiffly, Olivia stood by the side silently while waiting for him to speak. To be honest, Olivia did not like Nathaniel very much. She followed Lily for quite some time as the duo buried themselves with work in the laboratory.Olivia had always thought of herself as diligent, as she was one of the most hardworking students during her school days. Only after following Lily did Olivia find someone as hardworking as her. The duo would be so engrossed with lab work that they sometimes forgot to eat and sleep.Olivia had even lost count of times when she helplessly fell asleep in the laboratory. Even when she woke up, she saw Lily still recording, analyzing, and researching

“Lily disobeyed the company’s arrangements and joined another company, betraying MN Inc. in the process. That is why we’ve fired her,” Nathaniel said as he tossed an envelope on the table indifferently. Then he continued, “You’ve been with us for quite some time, and we know you’re a capable employee. Keep up the good work; we trust you will have a bright future ahead!”Olivia looked at the thick envelope.“Open it.” Nathaniel motioned for her to open the envelope with his chin while smiling complacently. When he tossed the envelope on the table earlier, the flap opened slightly, revealing a stack of 100-dollar bills. Olivia knew the envelope contained a considerable amount of money without opening it.“Mr. Hall, are you trying to bribe me?” Olivia asked, her brows raised, but she did not pick up the envelope.“What are you talking about?” Nathaniel pursed his lips, shaking his head. “This is the company’s remuneration to you. As long as you keep up the good work and obey the compa

However, his threat meant nothing to Olivia. She paused her steps and slowly turned around. The sight of his angry face made her chuckle. “Do as you wish, Mr. Hall! From now on, I’ll choose when I want to work and what time I’ll arrive. If you wish to penalize me for being late or playing hooky, go ahead!”Then Olivia opened the door and walked out of his office.“You’re letting her go just like that?” In disbelief, Melanie stared at the door through which Olivia had exited, then turned to Nathaniel and said, “She’s going to tell the press all that nonsense! How could you let her leave?”With a dark expression, he roared in return, “What should I have done instead? We’re at the company building! Do you know how many people saw her enter my office? Do you think I could lock her up?”“What should we do now?” Melanie was anxious and bit down on her lip. There are a lot of folks who are doubtful of her these days. The name Melanie had made for herself with much difficulty was now r

“It’s not bad. I’m in a new environment and working with new people. It feels like a rebirth to me, just like the company's name.”Lily did not speak about the mistreatment she experienced at her new workplace. She knew that not everyone would get along with her, and there would always be those she clicked with and those she could not. Jenny was right. Lily had not made a name for herself, nor did she have any experience. Not only that, she had several lawsuits waiting to be settled. It was typical for companies or teams not to want her on board. It was true that Lily got into Rebirth through her connections, but now she must prove her doubters wrong by demonstrating her genuine capabilities.“That’s good,” Alexander said, lowering his head to leave a peck on her cheek. He was aware of everything that occurred at the company but did not bring it up since she didn’t tell him herself. He also wanted to see how far she could go on her own after being so adamant about not making thei

Lily was speechless. She did not expect Nathaniel to seek her out over the place she used to rent. Seeing that he only just discovered she no longer lived there, it seemed he did not look for her for the last few days.Looking at Alexander, Lily’s lips curled into a smirk as she picked up her phone and said leisurely, “Since I won’t be staying there anymore, obviously, I’d stop renting the place. I could talk directly to the landlord about it, so why would I need to inform you, Mr. Hall?”“Don’t forget that I paid all the rent for you! You!” Nathaniel wanted to continue ranting, but he suppressed his rage and took a few deep breaths. After that, he asked, “Where are you staying now? Rebirth can’t possibly provide you with food and accommodation, can they?”He was convinced that Rebirth brainwashed her, and with his involvement with Melanie, it might be difficult to keep the truth from her anymore. Other than that, he could not think of another reason Lily, who had always been obedie

Lily smiled indifferently. “I’m not afraid of them. That’s what I want exactly.”“Oh?” After some thought, Alexander continued, “You have a backup copy of all their data?”As a perfumer, it was normal for Lily to have backups of all research data as she would conduct countless experiments on fragrances in a year, including minor adjustments along the way. Each research would take months, so it would be easier for her to check for any missing data or errors with her backup copies.“I did, but he took them away too.”Before, she was utterly defenseless against Nathaniel. She did not think of transferring or hiding her research data elsewhere because she trusted him. Lily kept everything in the lab, and Nathaniel sent his men to take them away the other day. After listening to Lily’s words, Alexander narrowed his eyes and said, “I don’t understand. Why are you still so confident if you don’t have any evidence?” Initially, Lily did not plan to tell Alexander anything, but since he

Charles called Lily into his office as soon as he sighted her. It seemed as though he was waiting for her. Charles walked to the side of his desk and pointed at the window blinds in front of him. “Pull down the blinds.”Lily turned around to do as Charles said. As she was doing so, she could see the gossiping and inquiring eyes from the outside. ‘What is going on?’ Lily pulled down the blinds and walked deeper into the office.“Take a look at this.” Charles took out an envelope and threw it in front of her.Lily opened the envelope with doubt in her heart and found a lawyer's letter inside. As expected, Nathaniel had sued her. Lily glanced at the letter casually and put it back into the envelope with a sneer on her face. She did not take it seriously.Charles had been observing her reaction. When he noted that Lily was overly calm, he could not help but ask, “What are your thoughts on this? The other party has sent us a lawyer’s letter.”Lily put away the letter. “I apologize for
