《Spoiled by Mr. Russell》全部章節：第 891 章 - 第 900 章

Behind a massive desk in the Tanner Corporation Building was a near-transparent glass wall—wiped so clean that it looked nearly transparent,allowing light to shine through freely.He looked beyond the glass and took in the sprawling city landscape, thinking this was the pinnacle of his life and that he deserved to work there.Nathaniel was holding a wine glass with its red liquid swirling inside. Its color was bright and compelling. He recalled the past few months with a slight smile as if what happened was only a dream.He thought he could build a career through his own efforts and become somebody that people would look up to, but his company went bankrupt, and he had to dodge his creditors like a complete loser.Arianna then took him in and brought him into the company. He knew she was just using him and would cut him loose when she obtained her goal, so he had long prepared for his game plan.Each thought he or she was the mastermind, not knowing they were all Nathaniel’s pawns

“You haven’t gotten the shares yet?” Eloise was shocked.Eloise did not know much about business and could not understand how her son could become the CEO without getting Derrick’s shares.“That old fox is too stubborn, so I need you to persuade him. Now that his son is dead, why should he hold on to the shares? If he wisens up and agrees to the transfer, I’ll make him my godfather and take care of him until he dies. He has nothing to lose,” Nathaniel said casually.“Take him as your godfather?” Eloise raised her voice and could hardly believe it. “How could you say such a thing just for money and power?”“Ha!” Nathaniel looked at his mother, amused. “If you could abandon me to marry into a wealthy family, what’s wrong with me taking him as my godfather? If he agrees to hand me Tanner Corporation, I can even treat him as my real father!”“Why you…” Eloise almost choked on her breath, not expecting her son to say such things.“I know you’re healthy, so keep your drama to yourself.

“He’s…”After a pause, Eloise heaved a heavy sigh. “With all that has happened, I guess he’s been generous, not leaving me for the sake of our marriage.”“With him keeping that woman for so many years, could he still hold it against you? Anyway, you two are quite alike in this aspect,” Derrick made fun of Eloise.Eloise was embarrassed and speechless. She had expected them to be hostile, even though she did not choose to be there.“All right, enough of your stories. What are you truly here for?” Derrick looked over at her as he spoke impatiently. Since Nathaniel was holding them as hostages, he knew Eloise had not come just to chat with them.‘I…” She hesitated for a moment, glanced toward the door, and whispered. “You haven’t transferred your shares to Nate, have you?”The couple shared a scornful look.“So that’s why you’re here!” Derrick snorted, “Eloise, you’ve married into the Tanner family for so many years. Have my wife and I ever mistreated you? How could you help your son

“Ms. Christian, we look forward to working with you!” The other party put down the pen and picked up the two copies of the contracts, revealing a satisfied smile.Lily took the contract, carefully looked it over, and extended her hand. “Looking forward to working with you too!”She did not expect the collaboration discussion to go so smoothly as Grandeur readily accepted all of her terms with only slight amendments. In the next quarter, they would launch a co-branded series named “Grandeur de Lily,” which would be a win-win model for both parties.Of course, it was not without precedents. Some famous perfumers had worked with international brands to launch co-branded series, which were very popular among consumers who chose their perfumes based on who the creators were.As this was Lily’s first attempt to explore the international market, it would be challenging to achieve one-shot success through her alone effort. Therefore, she thought it was an excellent opportunity to collabora

After listening to Lily for a while, Benedict shook his head and sighed, “I thought many would have felt saddened by the news of my death. I guess I don’t have such an influence over people, do I?”Lily knew he was teasing her, but she did not laugh—instead, she asked seriously, “Is it part of your game plan?”Benedict’s gaze wavered as he looked at her. “What?”“If you don’t want to talk about it, it’s okay. Everyone has secrets, so I guess you must do what you need to do.” Lily did not like to pry into others’ affairs, so she did not mind if he did not want to talk about it.Benedict smiled. “It’s not that I don’t want to talk about it, but it’s not the time yet. Anyway, I never thought I’d bump into you here. Are you here on vacation?”“No, I came here to discuss a collaboration deal,” Lily answered frankly.Benedict raised his eyebrows and threw her a surprised look. “You used to busy yourself with conducting experiments and creating perfumes in the lab, and now you’re discus
