Lahat ng Kabanata ng Spoiled by Mr. Russell: Kabanata 1241 - Kabanata 1250

From the material to the craftsmanship, even the embroidery and stitching looked like the one Anastasia had ordered."You're quibbling again!" She threw the dress down angrily.'If she can't tell the difference, does she even know which dress she bought?'Lily picked up a corner of the dress with a smile and said, "Ms. Rollins, don't worry. I bought this dress from the same store. Although it looks very similar to the one you reserved, I don't think this is yours.""What gives you…""Yours must still be in the store," Lily interrupted Anastasia.Anastasia was taken aback by this. She blinked as if she was trying to process what was going on."Ms. Rollins, did you put down a deposit for the dress that you ordered?""Of course!"How else could she reserve a dress without putting down a deposit? Anastasia paid a 50% deposit for the dress, which the shop had to alter to fit her figure.Her dresses at home were all beautiful and made from good-quality fabrics. Thus, it was difficu

The slight sweetness lingered in her mouth.This blueberry mousse wasn't as sweet as the cakes she had before. It tasted like yogurt, and the sugar content was very low. However, it was delicious for someone like her who had not had dessert in a long time.The first mouthful seemed to have opened up her stomach, and she couldn't help but stuff another spoon into her mouth.Lily intervened just as she was about to put it in her mouth. "Wait a minute!""What's wrong?" Anastasia looked at her, her eyes filled with puzzlement and dissatisfaction.She would lose it if Lily suddenly stopped her from eating right now."You can have this, but promise me you'll eat it slowly! Enjoy the taste of the food, feel each bite, and taste all the flavors."Anastasia had never done this before. Every time she ate, she was either pampered with food or restricted. She was either pushed to eat a lot very quickly or not allowed to eat all sorts of food. No one had ever told her to enjoy and savor th

"What's the matter with you guys? Why aren't you answering me?"After entering the laboratory, Austin asked again, "You’re all professionals and have been in this industry for decades. Why are you letting yourself get tangled up in a woman's web? Are you no better than a woman?""Mr. Fike, it's not that we're underestimating ourselves. Ms. Christian has the capabilities we don't have in this area. Sometimes we don’t even know why the experiments fail. However, Ms. Christian found the crux immediately. Just a simple sentence from her can change the final results quite drastically," someone answered.Everyone admired Lily for the skills she had. Her presence convinced them that this project could be a success. Therefore, when they heard that she was pulling out, they took a blow to their morale."Hmph!" Austin snorted disapprovingly. "You can't find the crux because you're incompetent. It's not because of how good she is. If the experiment fails, keep trying! It's not that hard to ad

Austin turned and saw Lily approaching.“Professor Thompson.” Lily greeted.“You came just at the right time. The team just finished a set of experiments, but it’s still not right. Come and take a look at what went wrong.” Thompson was eager to bring Lily into the lab.“Professor Thompson,” Austin could not help but call out.“Uh…” That made Thompson tilt his body sideways and raise his hand. “This is Austin Fike. I believe you two met yesterday. You haven’t visited the institute recently, so you might not know him. Austin just joined us not long ago, and he’s the student of a reputable teacher in this field!”After a pause, he continued, “You two can chat since one of you is an expert in medicinal herbs while the other is an expert in fragrances. I’m sure the two of you can create sparks and miracles through exchanging ideas.”Lily looked at Austin and nodded lightly as if yesterday's unpleasant incident did not happen. Then she smirked. “I wonder who Austin’s reputable teacher

When Lily left the lab, Austin followed suit. She walked at a faster pace, but he still managed to catch up with her due to the advantage he had with his height and long legs. Soon, he was in front of her, blocking her path. “Ms. Christian.”“What is it, Mr. Fike?” Lily stopped in her tracks, although she would rather just ignore him. She didn't understand how he, who acted all righteous while lying and using someone else's name to become famous, could advance so far in this field.“You know this experiment can’t succeed, don’t you? Since it’s moving in the wrong direction, why are you continuing? According to what I know, your husband has also invested much money in this project. Aren't you worried that neither of you will benefit from this?”“How would I know that? I’m just a woman who knows nothing about medicinal herbs. How could I possibly know the outcome of this research? Mr. Fike, don’t you think your question is quite contradictory?” Lily smiled, using Austin's mocking
