Chapter 193
Nothing was set in stone, after all, and one must be smart enough to think outside the box and
find other ways to deal with life.
‘I should stop ying defensively and strike back whenever someone provokes me. It’s about
time I retaliate and show those two I’m not someone to be trifled withi.’
When Alexander arrived home, the sight of Lily lying on lier stomach on the couch weed
him. Herptop was in front of her as her fingers gracefully typed away on her keyboard. Lily
crossed her calves mid-air while focusing all her attention on the screen. It was rare to see Lily
working on herptop at home in such a position. Alexander put down his things and changed
into liis house slippers before peeking over to see what Lily was doing She had several tabs on
her screen, registering for a troll ount on a certain website.
“What’s up?” Alexander went to pour luimself a ss of water and brought one for Lily as well.
Lily adjusted her posture and sat cross-legged with herptop on her thighs. She reached for
the ss and took a sip, but hier gaze remained fixed on the screen. “Someone wants to y,
so I have no choice but to y along.” Considering Lily’s expression and tone, Alexander knew
someone had made her unhappy. “Who has such power to anger my dear Lily?” Alexander said
as he unbuttoned the two top buttons of his dress shirt, allowing himself to rx after a tense
day at work. In the past, he felt the same regardless if he returned home or stayed out the entire
night. This house was just a ce for him to sleep, after all. However, since they married, he
had expectations of building a home with Lily. He looked forward to returning home to see her,
hear her voice, or talk to her about all sorts of things that affected their emotions during the
day. ‘She looks confident, so I guess she won’t need my help
“Who else would it be other than that j*rk?” Lily said without looking up. After putting down her
ss, she continued typing on her keyboard.
That made Alexander raise his brow before sitting next to her. He noticed she had logged into
her troll ount and posted the perfume forms. He squinted and thought, ‘Those are indeed
the perfume forms. She’s leaking business secrets.
“Are those the perfume forms you created back in MN Inc.?” Alexander instantly figured out
what Lily was doing
“You’re tight. Nate started this. I didn’t want to do this initially, but I had no choice since they
kept pushing us into dead ends.” Lily pressed enter on her keyboard and finally heaved a sigli
of relief. Then she ced herptop next to her as if she hadpleted her task.
“What if he sues you? Have you thought about that?” “It’s not like Nate hadn’t done that
before,” Lily calmly continued, “The forms belong to me, and this time, someone ‘hacked’
into my email to leak some of the things they found. What would that have to do with me since
MN Inc. had announced to the world that Mnie had created those forms?This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“To theizens, I was just someone who did administrative work, and they would think I had
no way to ess thepany’s business secrets. Also, I leaked more than one form.”
Alexander pondered before saying, “What if they say you stole the forms when you were still
an MN Inc, employee?” One must always u carefully and consider die opponent’s every
move. Then one could predict and counter the opponent’s retation, pushing them into a dead
end and leaving them to Way to salv.ge the situation.
“Would they have proof?” Lily sliruered indifferently. “Nate will need evidence if he wants to
sue me I hadn’t signed any contracts since I started working there. He loves using contracts to
threaten me Bring it on.
“I’m not even their employee, so how could I ess their business secrets? If I could do that so
easily, it’ll prove how bad their security is, and they should shut down their business.”
Lily was right; everything needed evidence in the court ofw. Nathaniel would not have
withdrawn the previouswsuit if he were confident enough.
