“T-Ten times?!” Melanie gasped in disbelief. She was surprised by Olivia’s colossal appetite.She could not even process it before she heard Olivia saying, “As for the promotion…you’re underestimating my ambitions. Why would I be satisfied with just a managerial position in the R&D department? What I truly want is your position!” She pointed and looked straight at Melanie, indicating she was not joking.Melanie’s expression turned sour immediately after. Although it was just a temporary measure to get Olivia’s help, Melanie could always break her promise later. Still, it was infuriating that Olivia had the guts to ask for Melanie’s position so openly. If Melanie agreed to give up her position to Olivia, what would the other staff members think of her, not to mention the industry?Olivia had expected Melanie, so she was in no rush. She sat back comfortably in her chair with her hands resting behind her head. Olivia looked up and said, “Oh, there’s one more thing. You’ll have to apolo

It was just a fight, but Lily felt like her whole body was in pain. It was obvious that she had not been training enough. Lily had been leading a slightly too comfortable life since leaving the Lodges. After she left, Lily could pursue what she wanted and loved. However, seeing Justin served as a wake-up call, and it reminded Lily that it did not matter where she ran. She would always be a Lodge. While soaking in her bath, Lily noticed a bruise on her arm. It was likely from the fight she had with Justin. She made a mental note to take care of it later. She reflected on her encounter with Nathaniel and Melanie and realized what a dull and uneventful day it had been. Lily expected to feel anger or resentment, but upon seeing them again, she felt only sadness for her former self.She felt bad for past Lily, who had treated the two with sincerity and unconditional love. She thought Nathaniel was the one, and that Melanie was the best friend she could ever have. How foolish of he

Why was he asking her about this? Lily bit her bottom lip, nodded quickly, and turned her head away from him. Alexander did not need any further explanation as her reactions were clear enough. He got up to grab another bath towel, then wrapped it securely around Lily while also pulling out a blanket to cover her. His gesture surprised Lily, and she turned to look at him. When Alexander saw she was staring at him, he bowed down and gave her a peck on her forehead.He was stopped as Lily took hold of his hand. She raised her head to look at him, her voice still husky. "What's the meaning of this?" Alexander looked at the small hand that was firmly holding his. It made him feel like she needed him. "Why?" Lily asked in confusion."There's no need to rush this. I'll wait until you're ready." Alexander raised his other hand and stroked her head lovingly. He had thought Lily was experienced after all those years with Nathaniel. However, this incident had proved him

Years of living alone and being independent made Lily more self-reliant. When she was still with Nathanial, he was always busy with work. Even during dinner, he always left the table before Lily finished eating. Lily did not care much about it then, but as time passed, she grew tired of it. On the other hand, being with Alexander was so different. She felt loved and cared for.Alexander noticed Lily had not touched her food, so he asked, “What’s wrong? Is the food not to your liking?” He made sure to order various foods so Lily could choose whatever she liked. “What kind of food do you prefer then?”“The choices don’t matter; it’s who I’m having it with that does.” Lily took a deep breath, smiled, and started eating. “These are delicious!” She took a piece with her fork and attempted to feed Alexander. “Here, have some!”Alexander was mildly surprised by Lily’s gesture, but he smiled and opened his mouth to take a bite. After some thought, Lily turned toward Alexander, still elegant

The foreigner stopped in his tracks as expected. This verified Nathaniel's suspicion that he had found the right person."Mr. Moreau, I’ve come to pick you up. I'm Nathaniel Hall, the president of MN Inc. I believe that Ms. Neville had mentioned me." While panting, Nathaniel put on a smile. Standing next to Nathaniel, Melanie switched her confused gaze between her boyfriend and the foreigner in front of her. 'Who is this guy?'Frank gave Nathaniel a once-over through his glasses."Yes, I’ve heard her mentioning you. Hello." His expression was cold and indifferent, but he still nodded politely."Hello, nice to meet you!" Nathaniel reached out his hand and greeted him enthusiastically.Frank glanced at the outstretched hand. He did a quick handshake with only his fingers touching Nathaniel's hand before releasing immediately. "Where's the car?""The car is parked outside. Please come with me!" Nathaniel led the way to the parking lot with glee.Melanie was perplexed and she glan
