“What would Nathaniel be most afraid of when he wants me to admit that I lied during the competition before the public?”Upon seeing Olivia’s puzzled gaze, Lily continued, “It’s the witnesses and evidence that will be against him. Sure, he took the evidence away, but the witness…”“Am I the witness?” Olivia pointed at herself. Realization soon hit her as she exclaimed, “I can be the witness!” She continued, arms akimbo, “We can use this chance to expose his true colors and show everyone just what kind of a person he truly is!”Lily smiled, shook her head lightly, and said, “No, you won’t need to be a witness. I only need you to take a vacation over the next two days.”“Take a vacation?”“Yes, that’s right! Nathaniel doesn’t need you to be his witness. All he wants is to have nobody testify for me. It will benefit him If you leave now.”At this crucial moment, Olivia knew that Nathaniel, who cared even about the minor things, would not let her go if she were to resign now. Slack

Alexander laughed as if he guessed what Lily was thinking. "I'm not a pervert who monitors people. I can see and hear with my eyes and ears." Suddenly, he poked Lily’s stomach, and she dodged as it tickled. That was when Lily realized her stomach growled with hunger.…Alexander took her to the Sky Garden Restaurant located halfway along the hill. This restaurant was famous in town, not only for its unique design but also for its magnificent view.In a mainstream society where Asian cuisine symbolized high-class identity, Sky Garden also served Western Cuisine, which their senior chefs specialized in. The restaurant had a dish from every culture for everyone.Of course, it was pricey, and some could not afford to enjoy their delicacies. Still, most who wanted to eat at Sky Garden would need to make a reservation, even if certain people had reserved seats like VIP guests.Lily looked at a woman sitting across from her, taking the menu gracefully and handing it to her man. The wai

“I-I’m full.” Lily lowered her head while her cheeks flushed red.“You’re probably tired, so let’s go home and rest first. We’ll talk about the rest tomorrow.” As if knowing what was bothering Lily, Alexander said, “I’ll let Edward know about your request. Don’t worry about it.”His words managed to relieve Lily of her worries. She thought it was great to have someone else understand her and make arrangements to get things done before she even asked.When the couple got into the car, Alexander asked Lily, “Are you renting the place you’re staying at now?”“Yeah.”“Cancel your contract and move in with me,” Alexander said and held Lily’s hand.Alexander’s actions made Lily’s heart skip a beat as she tightened her grip on his hand and lowered her head, appearing to be in her thoughts. Alexander did not rush her either. He just looked ahead with her hand in his, waiting patiently for her answer. The arrival of such a day was already within Lily’s expectations, but she just did not

Lily almost stretched her finger to touch Alexander's tanned skin and well-built muscles. She gulped subconsciously."Lily? Lily?!" Nathaniel suspected Lily had hung up the phone when he did not get a response, so he kept calling her name.Lily widened her eyes as she watched Alexander's tall figure lean toward her. His handsome face was getting closer and closer. She held her breath, and then…When their lips got close, Alexander turned sideways and gently kissed Lily on her cheek near her ear. Then he straightened his back and went straight into the walk-in closet.Thud!The phone slipped from Lily’s hand and rolled on the carpet. Fortunately, the phone fell onto the carpet. Otherwise, it would have shattered.Nathaniel was still on the other end of the call waiting for Lily’s response, when the loud thud hurt his eardrums. He hurriedly moved his ear away from the phone and exclaimed, "Lily! What the hell are you doing?! Are you even listening to me?"Lily squatted to pick up

Lily walked over and sat down gracefully.Melanie had arrived at the venue earlier. Once Lily took her seat, Melanie glanced over at Nathaniel, who noticed that and gave Melanie an “Okay” gesture. Seeing that, Melanie felt slightly more at ease.The press conference soon commenced, and Nathaniel went straight to the point. “I’m sure all of you heard about the incident during the perfumery competition last night. There were some misunderstandings. Hence, we arranged this press conference to clarify the misunderstandings to those concerned with the media’s help.”Nathaniel paused before he continued, “The product ‘First Love,’ which was one of MN Inc.’s entries to the competition, was well-received by everyone. However, two companies submitted the same work, which raised concerns about plagiarism and intellectual property theft. The people involved in this incident are already here, so I won’t say more. Now, I’ll pass the floor to the two perfumers to explain it to all of you, alrig
