Chapter 40


    Over the past few days, Alexander did for her things Nathaniel had never done and was incapable of


    doing in thest few years.


    “That‘s because... you are my wife.” While saying this, Alexander leaned in to kiss Lily on the lips.


    Although she was a little shy, she did not move away, and her response greatly encouraged Alexander.


    He pursed his lips in satisfaction and deepened the kiss.


    When Nathaniel returned home, he felt defeated and humiliated. He never imagined one day he would


    be threatened with a knife to the neck, let alone by Lily!


    Why was Lily so good at boxing, and when did she learn it? How could he have been unaware of the


    fact? That said, what else did he not know about her?


    Crunch!

    He had stepped on a piece of debris. Mnie sat on the living room sofa amid the mess, holding a


    cushion in her arms. Seeing Nathaniel, she raised her arm and hurled the cushion toward him. “I


    thought you‘d nevere back!”


    Nathaniel dodged, and the cushion hit the door behind him before falling to the floor.


    “What are you doing?” He bent down and picked up the cushion, carefully avoiding debris on his way to


    the sofa, and sat beside Mnie. Even though he had been expecting this, the situation still upset him.


    “What do you think?” Sitting up straight, Mnie turned her head to look at him, “Let me ask you then,


    what are we supposed to do now? You heard what Lily said at the press conference. I told you she


    couldn‘t be trusted, and you didn‘t believe me! Well, now she won‘t let this go! Did you know I don‘t


    even dare go on


    Twitter now?”


    “What‘s stopping you?” Nathaniel said, “You‘ve done nothing wrong.” “That‘s enough. It‘s one thing to


    tell this to the press, but now I‘m asking you to find a solution, not to appease me!”


    Mnie was acting like a spoiled child while holding Nathaniel‘s arm. She had stormed out of the press


    conference in a rage because she could no longer take the confrontation.


    Lily was making such a fuss, and it would not look good for Mnie to stay. She was better off leaving


    the situation.


    “You‘re now expecting me toe up with a solution. Why didn‘t you say something before storming


    off the press conference?” Nathaniel looked very upset when he nced at her, “Do you realize what


    the press will report if you stormed off like that? They‘ll say you look guilty!”


    “What if I hadn‘t left? Wouldn‘t that make the situation worse? Lily made it clear that she thought we


    had an affair. She won‘t let this go!” Mnie‘s face copsed, and herrge eyes were hazy with tears,


    “Nate, what did I do wrong? I only ever loved you! Yes, I gained some fame over the past few years


    thanks to her perfumes, but she always had you!


    “You know nothing is more important to me than you! She has already robbed me of my beloved. I only


    took a little benefit, so what‘s the problem? The fuss


    she‘s making is driving MN Inc. to its downfall! Nate, she doesn‘t have your best interest at heart and


    doesn‘t care about you at all!”


    Every word Mnie said was stuck in Nathaniel‘s heart, and he thought the same.


    Lily would not be so vicious if she still had feelings for him. Nathaniel felt a chill on his neck as he


    recalled the moment a knife was ced against it, and his heart grew colder.


    “Since she is intent on going all the way, she cannot use me of being cruel.” Nathaniel‘s face was


    grim, and he said, “So what if she knows the form? All she has are creativity and the form, but


    she doesn‘t know that evidence is what really matters. We are the ones with all the evidence!”


    “What do you mean? Are we going to sue her?” Mnie thought they were only going to threaten Lily.


    Awsuit? That sounds like a lot of trouble and might even backfire.


    “Of course we are! Not only will we sue her, but we will make sure everyone knows about it!”
