Spoiled by Mr. Russell

Chapter 40

Over the past few days, Alexander did for her things Nathaniel had never done and was incapable of doing in the last few years.

“That‘s because... you are my wife.” While saying this, Alexander leaned in to kiss Lily on the lips. Although she was a little shy, she did not move away, and her response greatly encouraged Alexander.

He pursed his lips in satisfaction and deepened the kiss.

When Nathaniel returned home, he felt defeated and humiliated. He never imagined one day he would be threatened with a knife to the neck, let alone by Lily!

Why was Lily so good at boxing, and when did she learn it? How could he have been unaware of the fact? That said, what else did he not know about her?

Crunch!

He had stepped on a piece of debris. Melanie sat on the living room sofa amid the mess, holding a cushion in her arms. Seeing Nathaniel, she raised her arm and hurled the cushion toward him. “I thought you‘d never come back!”

Nathaniel dodged, and the cushion hit the door behind him before falling to the floor.

“What are you doing?” He bent down and picked up the cushion, carefully avoiding debris on his way to the sofa, and sat beside Melanie. Even though he had been expecting this, the situation still upset him. “What do you think?” Sitting up straight, Melanie turned her head to look at him, “Let me ask you then, what are we supposed to do now? You heard what Lily said at the press conference. I told you she couldn‘t be trusted, and you didn‘t believe me! Well, now she won‘t let this go! Did you know I don‘t even dare go on

Twitter now?”

“What‘s stopping you?” Nathaniel said, “You‘ve done nothing wrong.” “That‘s enough. It‘s one thing to tell this to the press, but now I‘m asking you to find a solution, not to appease me!”

Melanie was acting like a spoiled child while holding Nathaniel‘s arm. She had stormed out of the press conference in a rage because she could no longer take the confrontation.

Lily was making such a fuss, and it would not look good for Melanie to stay. She was better off leaving the situation.

“You‘re now expecting me to come up with a solution. Why didn‘t you say something before storming off the press conference?” Nathaniel looked very upset when he glanced at her, “Do you realize what the press will report if you stormed off like that? They‘ll say you look guilty!” NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“What if I hadn‘t left? Wouldn‘t that make the situation worse? Lily made it clear that she thought we had an affair. She won‘t let this go!” Melanie‘s face collapsed, and her large eyes were hazy with tears, “Nate, what did I do wrong? I only ever loved you! Yes, I gained some fame over the past few years thanks to her perfumes, but she always had you!

“You know nothing is more important to me than you! She has already robbed me of my beloved. I only took a little benefit, so what‘s the problem? The fuss

she‘s making is driving MN Inc. to its downfall! Nate, she doesn‘t have your best interest at heart and doesn‘t care about you at all!”

Every word Melanie said was stuck in Nathaniel‘s heart, and he thought the same.

Lily would not be so vicious if she still had feelings for him. Nathaniel felt a chill on his neck as he recalled the moment a knife was placed against it, and his heart grew colder.

“Since she is intent on going all the way, she cannot accuse me of being cruel.” Nathaniel‘s face was grim, and he said, “So what if she knows the formula? All she has are creativity and the formula, but she doesn‘t know that evidence is what really matters. We are the ones with all the evidence!”

“What do you mean? Are we going to sue her?” Melanie thought they were only going to threaten Lily. A lawsuit? That sounds like a lot of trouble and might even backfire.

“Of course we are! Not only will we sue her, but we will make sure everyone knows about it!”
