Chapter 131: Peace Offering

"We meet again," Lily chuckled as Roseline walked into her office. "I was surprised when my assistant said you are here to see me."Roseline smiled wryly, her eyes locked onto Lily's. "I'm sure you were. Even I was surprised that I'm seeking you out first. Be happy you are the first to make me bend like this." She snarled and sat down opposite Lily without being invited too.Lily's expression remained amused, but a hint of curiosity crept into her voice. "What brings you here, Roseline? I thought we settled our... differences last time."Roseline's smile faltered, and for a moment, Lily glimpsed a flicker of rage. "I would not call that settling differences," she replied. "However, I'm here to offer you a proposal."Raising a brow, Lily relaxed into her chair, eyes full of curiosity. "Proposal?" She echoed, and Roseline hummed while fishing out a small white envelope with the Anderson logo on it. "That's a fifty million dollar check and some sure investment links. I'm offering it

Chapter 132: Seen As A Threat

"We are getting sued for plagiarism?" Mr. Wallace asked in bewilderment as he read the contents of the letter the lawyer had brought to him. "Why would we get sued for plagiarism? We didn't steal anything from your company.""Mr. Wallace, what you are getting sued for is right in there," the lawyer replied with a stoic expression. "Your latest software, 'Dream,' is a copy of our latest product, and it was released just a few days after our. The action is suspicious, and your company will need to prove you created your version." Sighing, Mr. Wallace frowned deeply, trying to make sense of the situation. There was no way they could have plagiarised their product when they were supposed to release the software a few weeks before their company released theirs.It was due to the delay from the team and Lily's absence that the release date was delayed. Besides, StarLite's product is way better than theirs; who should be the one suing for plagiarism?Massaging his temple, Mr. Wallace met t

Chapter 133: Living In Chaos

"You are always all over the news recently," Mrs Turner breathed out in frustration. "It's either someone is suing you or you are releasing a new product; aren't you overworking yourself too much?""Look at you, you are all skin and bones! When was the last time you ate good food three times a day?" She complains while checking out Lily, going from one side to the other. "Mum, why are you here?" Lily asked in surprise as she allowed her mother to fuse about her wellbeing. She closed the door behind them and led the way to the living room.Mrs Turner's eyes widened as she took in the chaotic state of the living room. Papers, coffee cups, and takeaway boxes littered every surface, with Lily's laptop open on the couch, screen covered in codes."Good Lord, Lily! What's going on here?" Mrs Turner exclaimed, her hands on her hips. "You're not just overworking yourself; you're living in chaos! Do you even know what day it is? When was the last time you went out?"Lily chuckled sheepishly. "

Chapter 134: No Work, No Stress

Lily's eyes sparkled as she boarded the private jet, Mark waiting with a warm smile. "Surprise time," he whispered, taking her hand. "You look beautiful as always." He complimented while kissing her gently on the cheek. "You don't look bad yourself," Lily replied with a blush as they stepped onto the jet. "Where are we headed?"Mark chuckled. "Patience, my love. You'll see. I'm sure you will like it." He assured her. "I personally made the arrangements." As they settled into their seats, Lily buckled up and turned to Mark, her smile widening as she realised his eyes were on her, gentle and full of love. "I'm so excited for this weekend! I needed this break." She breathed out. "Of course I was also looking forward to spending some time with you," she added with a wink, making Mark laugh. "Oh, of course. I'm feeling as if I got used by my girlfriend, who wants to get away from her work," he joked with his hand on his chest, feigning hurt. Lily laughed at his childishness. "I hope

Chapter 135: Never Been More Sure

The next morning, Lily woke up to the sound of gentle waves and the warmth of Mark's embrace. She smiled and gently turned to face him while trying not to startle him awake, only to see his eyes were wide open and he was fully dressed in a white t-shirt and grey shorts."Good morning, beautiful," Mark whispered, his lips brushing against her nose. "Did you enjoy your sleep?""Good morning, handsome." She greeted, "I did; I feel so refreshed."Mark sat up and reached out to the bedside table. He handed her a bouquet of roses and a small, elegantly wrapped box. "I thought you deserved a special surprise."Lily's heart skipped a beat as she opened the box, revealing a stunning silver necklace with a tiny crystal pendant. "It's so beautiful, Mark."He helped her put on the necklace, his fingers tracing her skin, sending shivers down her spine. "It's not as beautiful as you are." Lily's cheeks flushed as Mark's words sent a flutter through her chest. "You're making me blush, Mr Watson,

Chapter 136: Beyond Revenge

Lily's eyes widened in shock as she stared at Mark across the table. "You want me to move in with you?" she repeated, her voice laced with incredulity. "Like, for us to live together?"Mark nodded, his expression hopeful. "Yes, exactly. I want us to take our relationship to the next level, and I think moving in together is a good place to start.""I honestly didn't see this coming," Lily chuckled as she relaxed into the chair, her hair dancing to the rhythm of the air. "What made you think of this?""It's not just some spontaneous thoughts after last night, I promise," he teased a Lily flushed at the thought of their steamy escapade the previous night. She playfully glared at him, and he chuckled before continuing with our explanation. "I've been thinking about it for a while now. We spend most of our free time together anyway. It just makes sense to make it official.""I mean, we don't have to wait until both of us have some free time before we see each other. I want to see you all

Chapter 137: Won't Know What Hit Them

Celina settled into the chair opposite Lily's desk, a mischievous grin spreading across her face. "Spill the beans, girl!" she exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with curiosity."Spill what?" Lily replied, feigning nonchalance, as she continued to focus on the file in front of her. "What are you talking about, Celina?"Celina's grin widened. "Don't play dumb, Lily. I know all about your weekend with Mark. I want juicy details.""You can't leave anything out! The good, the bad, and even the erotic," she added. "Seeing how Mark was glowing when he returned, you'd think he went to paradise and came back!" Lily's cheeks flushed, despite her attempts to maintain a poker face. "He did go to paradise," Lily replied with a cheeky smile, making Celina roll her eyes. "Come on, share!" Celina urged, leaning forward. "How was the trip? Did Mark sweep you off your feet? And, more importantly, did you two take things to the next level?"Lily sighed, setting the file aside. "Celina, you're relentless.

Chapter 138: Not A Damsel In Distress

"What are you doing here?" Lily asked, surprise as she saw Mark stepping out of his car in front of the courthouse."I came to support my beautiful and hard-working girlfriend at her trial," he replied with a cheeky smile. "Can't I be here?" Lily's eyes narrowed her expression to a mix of amusement and annoyance. "You know you can't just show up unannounced. What if the press sees you?""I'm willing to take that risk. Besides, I want to be here for you. You've been stressing about this trial for weeks," Mark replied with a shrug as he got closer to Lily. Close enough for them to feel comforted with each other's scent but far enough for it to look like any regular business partner talking. Lily sighed, her shoulders relaxing slightly. "I appreciate the thought, but you're going to draw attention. This is a high-profile case. Unnecessarily so, since Ryder Technologies publicises it more than expected.""I'm quite curious as to why they are doing something so foolish, but I guess we wi
