Chapter 195
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
âLily, are you out of your mind? Youâre acting like a dog with rabies! What do you think youâre doing?â
Nathaniel started sliouting from the other end as soon as Lily picked up the call.
Fortunately, Lily had expected him to act that way, so she ensured the phone was away from her ears.
Lily was not angry at all at the face of his insults. She smirked and replied coldly, âMr. Hall, a dog with rabies bites anyone in its path. However, unlike you, I know exactly who Iâm going after, so Iâll only attack you!â âYou...â Nathaniel inhaled deeply. He would have torn her to pieces if Lily had been in front of him.
âLily Christian, i know what you want. Iâve ensured Olivia Hart wonât be your lap dog anyinore, so youâre coming at me for revenge.â
âFinally, weâve come to an understanding. By the way, you shouldnât insult dogs. Theyâre intelligent and loyal creatures, much better than you could ever be,â she added in a frigid tone.
she did not care if Nathaniel insulted her, but she would not allow him to ridicule her friends! Noticing her mounting rage, Alexander opened his arms and pulled Lily into his warm embrace, and she relaxed. Alexander was her biggest comfort, and she could always rely on him no matter what happened.
âI wonât continue this ridiculous argument, but donât think youâve won this battle. Remember, even if your disclosure of MN Inc.âs perfume formula dealt us an enormous blow, what you just did was leak confidential company information. Weâll bring this to the court, and youâll have to pay for our damages!
You did something foolish, and sooner or later, youâll pay the price!â Nathaniel threatened..
Nathaniel was supposed to talk to Melanie about their wedding plans, but he received a call from the board in the middle of the night. They questioned him about the information leak of some of their most famous perfuines, causing the company a considerable loss of profits. Astonished beyond words, he went online to check. After verifying the story, he was certain Lily was to blame, as only she could pull of something like that. However, once he calmed down, Nathaniel realized Lily would have to pay for their damages as she leaked confidential MN. Inc. information.
âConfidential company information?â Lily snickered, âMr. Hall, donât make me laugh. You mustâve forgotten that I never had a formal contract signed with MN. Inc. I was never even asked to sign an employment contract. âI donât see why I could be hield liable for disclosing proprietary information when the company in question didnât even employ me. After all, low could a nobody like myself even obtain such classified information?â
Then Lily suggested derisively, âSomeone as capable as you, Mr. Hall, could surely safeguard MN Inc.âs perfume formula, right? How could you let such negligence happen at your company? Ms.
Thayer invented these formulas, as I recall. Perhaps she was upset with your treatment of her and leaked then instead?â
âStop spouting nonsense! Mel is nothing like you, and sheâd never betray me!â Nathaniel said heatedly, âDonât think I canât do anything just because you wonât admit to it. Iâll get an IT expert to track the IP addresses that leaked the information. Youâll be exposed!â
âMr. Hall, get your facts right. Those Twitter accounts werenât mine, to begin with. How could you prove I had access to such confidential information?â Lily paused.
She was losing her patience with Nathaniel, but she sat up and continued. âLetine give you a headsâ
up. Iâve known you for a long time, I miglit not have known everything about you, but I know enou:1.â
Lily smirked as she spoke coldly into the pione. Her eyes held 110 warmth. âThose gifts you got for Melanie and the overseas trip you took with her, I know exactly where you got the money for them.
Letâs see, what if I told the board of directors how you used their money for entertainment purposes? I wonder how theyâd react to the news?â
This was the first time Alexanderâs heart ached for Lily amid her anger. This was the most enraged he had seen her. She was seething with race but did her best to suppress it. In a way, it looked like she was on lire.
