Chapter 209


    Chapter 209 Nathaniel hugged her from behind and lurrically apologized, “Don’t be angry, Mel.


    It’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have gotten angry and shouted at you because I care for you and not


    just the baby. Both of you are equally important.” He kissed the back of her neck as he


    exined himsell. “Why don’t you look at this if you don’t believe me?” Nathaniel pulled out a


    small velvet box. He had nned to propose lo fier formally, but it did not matter anymore as


    her sinile was more important


    Mnie looked at the boxs it opened up before her eyes. Insidey arge dazzling diamond


    ring that captured her wart; her cars stopped immediately. She stared at the ring as Nathaniel


    walked in front of lier and went down on one knee.


    “I know you’ve suffered a lot being by my side all these years, Mel. I also know you’re working


    hard to help me. It’s been hard on you. Therefore, I’d like to ask you to give me a chance to take


    care of you and our child. Let me spoil you for a lifetime and give you happiness! Will you


    111arry me?”


    Mnie could not refuse wlien she looked at the beautiful diamond ring. She excitedly nodded


    as she covered her mouth with one hand and stretched out the other. Nathaniel grinned and put


    the ring on her. He held her hand and kissed the back of it. “I love you, Mel!”


    “I love you too!” Mnie hugged him.


    She looked at the diamond ring on her finger with satisfaction. The size of the diamond was


    larger than average. It seemed that the decision on whether to keep the baby was put on hold.


    Lily was so busy these days that she would forget to eat and sleep. They were at the most


    critical stage then. Based on her experience, there should be no problem with the perfume


    form this time. It would be a sess if it passed the final inspection and the oue met


    her expectations.


    Had it not been for a certain person’s resentment of her absence, she would have slept in the


    lab.


    She has been granted a special exception to stay in theb after work hours. Olivia would


    apany her to work overtime while Jenny would often drop by and bring them supper and


    Snacks.


    However, the weather was harsh, and it was challenging to stay up all night. It was so cold that


    even twoyers of work clothes were not much help. The temperature dropped considerably


    and seemed to transition from summer to winter instantly.


    Although there was a heater in theb, it was turned off as it could affect the properties and


    stability of the chemicals in the perfume. Olivia yawned twice. Lily saw she was exhausted and


    persuaded her, “Rest for a bit. I can oversee this mysell.”


    “No, the results will be out soon. We mustn’t be careless. You’re the one who taught me this!


    Olivia shook her head. She tried to refresh herself by standing and stretching herself.

    “It’s okay. I’m here!” Lily said. “I’ll apany you!” Even though Olivia said so, she was still


    sleepy. While rubbing her eyes, she said, “I’ll wash my face with cold water ande back.”


    Lily nodded and turned her attention back to the apparatus on the table. A notebook on the


    table contained the experimental record of past attempts. The book was densely written with


    the reasons for failure, differences, and other notes.


    She had a habit of drawing a small siniley face at random areas of the page when she was tired.


    This was also to encourage herself to persevere. Unless someone looked at it carefully, it was


    hard to notice the smiley as it was small and distributed all over.


    She looked at the time and realized it was approaching midnight. Alexander should have fallen


    asleep.
