Chapter 117


    After listening to his words, Mnie looked around the room again, but all she could think about was


    what Frank‘s room looked like. She took a deep breath and said, “It‘s not bad.”


    Nathaniel was dissatisfied, “What do you mean by ‘not bad?‘ You should know that the price differs


    significantly.”


    “Well, there‘s not much of a difference to the other rooms,” Mnie didn‘t want to discuss this, so she


    replied perfunctorily.


    “How can your room be almost the same as the others? It cost a few hundred dors more.” Nathaniel


    did not realize how Mnie felt, but he continued, “Mel, we‘re rtively well–off now, but you know the


    market, so we must calcte every penny carefully. It might be difficult now, but if you think about the


    future...”


    “Oh, here we go again with ‘the future!‘ You always talk about the future!” Mnie thundered as she


    was unable to bear Nathaniel‘s rambling. “What I want is the present! You always talk to me about the


    future, and it feels like you‘re showing me something unreachable! I can‘t see the future, Nate! I just


    can‘t!” She could not help but lose control as tears rolled down her cheeks.


    Nathaniel did not respond for a long time. He did not expect Mnie‘s mood to change as she had


    never been that angry. “Mel?” He hesitantly called out to her. “Are you mad?”


    “Yes, I am!” Mnie said affirmatively.


    “Is it because of me?” After thinking about it, Nathaniel said, “Or did Frank do something to you?”


    Mnie felt guilty when Nathaniel mentioned Frank. She shouted, “Is that your first thought?! Do you


    always think about these things, Nate? Let me tell you why I‘m in a bad mood. It‘s because I saw Lily!”


    “L–Lily?” Nathaniel was startled as he did not expect Mnie to mention that name. “Where did you


    see her? Is she in Middle Valley?”


    “Yes, she is,” Mnie continued, “Not only is she in Middle Valley, but she also sat in first ss and

    enjoyed special treatment. She even had a special reception when she arrived. A driver picked her up


    in a Rolls–Royce too! Did you hear me, Nate? Frank and I only had a $ 100,000 Mercedes–Benz, but


    Lily got to ride in a $500,000 Rolls–Royce?!” Mnie spilled everything in one breath, and her mood


    became much smoother.


    Nathaniel was quiet as what he heard was beyond his wildest expectations. “Mel, I didn‘t expect…”


    Mnie interjected with gritted teeth, “Of course, you didn‘t, and I didn‘t either. Lily betrayed us, yet she


    can still live sovishly. Why is that, Nate? I‘ll make sure she gets what she deserves!”


    Nathaniel replied, “What are you going to do?” “I know Lily will be at the sampling session. I want to


    embarrass her!” Mnie said bitterly. “Don‘t get impulsive, Mel. Figure out the situation, and then we‘ll


    talk about it. Lily is no


    longer an MN Inc. employee, and the people from Rebirth are protecting her. She doesn‘t listen to me


    at all. You...”


    “Do you feel sorry for her, Nate?” “What? Why would you say that?” Nathaniel immediately denied it.


    “You‘re the only one for me, Mel. You should know that. As for Lily, she...” “That‘s it. You take care of


    the essential oil issue and wait to hear my good news!” Mnie instantly hung up the phone as soon as


    she finished speaking.


    “Mel? Mel?!”
