Chapter 41


    Nathaniel was not kidding. Soon, he put up awyer‘s letter on thepany homepage in which he


    threatened legal action against Lily, demanded an apology, and soughtpensation for the


    Not only was the letter posted on MN Inc.‘s website, but tforms such as Twitter and Reddit all had


    the same statement. MN Inc. appeared to be taking this seriously.


    Given that MN Inc. was taking such a firm stance while Rebirth was utterly silent, the public opinion

    quickly became one–sided.


    Although the press conference events were bewildering, and some people had begun to believe in


    Lily‘s innocence, they soon changed their minds after reading MN Inc.‘s statement.


    If Rebirth was innocent, why were they silent? Why did Lily fail to produce any favorable evidence?


    Faced with MN Inc.‘s usation, Lily maintained a low profile, but she answered by reposting MN


    Inc.‘s statement andwyer‘s letter with the caption, “Bring it on.”


    The caption seemed understated but was filled with contempt as if she was not taking MN Inc.‘s threats


    seriously. Her response quickly became viral and was even trending at one point. Typically, the


    perfume industry was not particrly popr. Aside from new releases or celebrity endorsements,


    cosmetics and fragrances hardly appear on the trending lists.


    However, due to the scandal and the feud, their news was often trending on social media. Many online


    users imed never to have seen such outrageous giarism. Both sides refused to admit it, and both


    maintained their innocence. It was challenging to discern the truth.


    In contrast to the excitement of the gossiping inte users, Lily wasposed. She was on her way


    to the Rebirth office when she got a call from Olivia.


    “Are you back from vacation?” Lily smiled lightly, but Olivia was anxious. “I saw thewyer‘s letter from


    MN Inc. How are you holding up? Do you need me to testify for you in court?” Lily burst outughing,


    “No need.” “You don‘t have to worry about me. Even if I don‘t speak up now, Nathaniel


    won‘t tolerate me staying in thepany, anyway,” Olivia said, understanding the situation very well.


    Olivia had invented an excuse to go on vacation at the time. She switched off her mobile phone and


    was using a separate personal phone instead. When Olivia eventually turned on her mobile phone


    upon returning, she discovered a barrage of messages urging her to cancel her leave and return to


    work. One can imagine how many missed calls she had received. Of course, Olivia could guess why


    they wanted her toe back.


    “It‘s not that I‘m afraid of implicating you, but I don‘t need it now.” After a pause, Lily continued, “Don‘t


    worry. If I need your help, I‘ll let you know.”


    Olivia could only nod, “Okay, then please take care.”


    Olivia admired and trusted Lily. After being by her side for so long, her talent in perfumery impressed


    Olivia, but this was different. After all, Nathaniel was thepany‘s president, and everyone in the


    other staff of thepany. Thus, she was the only one who could prove that the perfumes were indeed


    Lily‘s creations.


    To make matters worse, Lily had less to work with in terms of witnesses and physical evidence


    because of the materials MN Inc. had stolen. It was a mystery to Olivia where Lily got her confidence


    now. Did ite from Rebirth?
