Lily smiled silently. So, Jenny decided not to push the subject, “Okay then, miss secretive! Since you have your knight in shining armor to pick you up, I won’t be your escort then. I’ll take my leave. See you!”Lily nodded and parted ways with Jenny at the entrance of the building. As Jenny was backing out of the car park, she turned her head and saw Lily still standing there. She was about to ask Lily why she was still there when she saw Lily dashing across the other direction.Out of curiosity, Jenny slowed down her car to look at Lily. She saw Lily running toward a black sedan and hopped in. Then the car drove off. The sedan windows were dark, so Jenny could not see the person sitting inside.“Gosh! I’m just too nosy sometimes!” Shaking her head, Jenny smiled. As she stepped on the accelerator, the black sedan overtook her and sped off. “W-Was that a Maybach?!” Jenny felt dizzy when she noticed the brand of the car Lily was in.…“You smell good today. Did you just shower?” Al

After Lily hung up, Alexander asked, “Do you need me to come with you?”“No, it’s fine,” she shook her head. “Don’t worry, I can handle this alone, but I’d like to borrow someone from you.” “Oh?” …Nathaniel wanted to meet at a café on Purple Lane. Both Nathaniel and Melanie were early, staring at the café doors. When they saw Lily walk in, Nathaniel instinctively stood up. He would have walked over to welcome Lily if Melanie had not stopped him, Nathaniel immediately came to his senses. Although they were asking Lily for a favor, the lawsuit was still going on. Nathaniel still had substantial evidence in his hands, so there was no reason for him to feel disadvantaged.After organizing his thoughts, he sat back at ease and straightened his clothes. However, they soon noticed a man trailing behind Lily. He had on a suit and tie, as well as a severe look on his face framed by gold-rimmed glasses.Nathaniel went on guard as he eyed the man cautiously. He raised his head

Lily glanced at Nathaniel lazily. She had no interest in entertaining him and turned her attention back to her phone.Nathaniel knew that she was deliberately ignoring them, so he changed the topic, “Over the past few days, Mel and I have seriously reflected on our relationship. We should not let our relationship problems affect work. We don’t care who’s the one to blame. After all, you have helped a lot before. We will no longer pursue this matter and will withdraw the lawsuit. You can do whatever you want in the future. Just let the matter pass, okay?”“What do you say, Mr. Hudson?” Lily ignored him and asked the lawyer beside her instead.James had kept his silence all this time. He sat on the sidelines as a listener and wrote something from time to time. When he heard Lily questioning him, he stopped and looked at her. “Of course not, Ms. Christian.”“This is a matter between us. There is no need for you to interfere!” Nate's expression turned dark. He looked at Lily and said,

Melanie was flabbergasted because Nathaniel had never treated her like that before. Nathaniel started speaking softly and coaxed Melanie patiently, even if she were petty. Nathaniel forgot to be discreet and not make a scene because he was shocked. He just snapped.He turned to look at Melanie and felt distressed, wanting to sweet-talk her. However, he also felt helpless at that moment. He sighed, saying, “I’m a mess right now. I’ll think of something soon. You should go home and rest.” After speaking, Nathaniel left Melanie alone at the cafe.Melanie was angry and hateful. She had good luck in her love life and career over the past years. Melanie could be famous and kick Lily aside with one foot while sitting tight as MN Inc.’s first lady. She had it all planned and would have announced her retirement later.The company had grown, so Melanie could spend more money to hire a few helpful staff members. By then, would MN Inc. still need Lily? Afterward, Melanie could finally enjoy pea

"Ultimately, you’re still upset." Justin shook his head. “It’s true that when you left, grandpa said some harsh words, but he was also angry. We’re family. How could you take words said in anger seriously? It’s been so long. You’re suffering, and you should’ve had enough. Listen to those rumors, as well as the lawsuit. You’ve done this to yourself and are still unwilling to turn back?”“It’s not that I don’t want to turn back. When I think in time, I will,” Lily straightened her back and added, “I’ll solve my affairs. Don’t worry. No one will know my relationship with you.”However, that sentence seemed to anger Justin. “Do you think my family is afraid of being implicated by you? Do you think you can get away saying nothing? Why are you still so self-righteous after all these years?” “Well, then just assume that I am. I’ll tell my grandfather in person when I’m qualified to return.”“Are you really not coming back?” Justin asked as he took another step closer, looking down at her.
