Chapter 271
Nathaniel had thought about Lily when the news about his ident came out. Even his mother had
gone to visit him. He knew there was no way Lily would not know about his ident. Still, she did not
show up, and Mnie was the one who went to see him when the news first appeared on TV.
Eloise only smirked coldly at her shameless son, “Visit you? If I were Lily, I’d have torn you to pieces
after what you did to her. The nerve!”
“Mother! Am I not your son?” Nathaniel snapped. How could she be siding with an outsider?
“I’m saying this to you because you’re my son, or else why should I care?!” She finished. Eloise noticed
the apparent change in her son’s facial expression, and her tone softened, “It’s not that I’m trying to
reprimand you. I’m just trying to give you constructive criticism. I’ve met many people, and I know
Mnie is unsuitable for you.”

“Then what does this have to do with Lily? Is it because she’s a talented perfumer? I’m looking for a
wife, not a perfumer. Besides, did you see how she’s seeking revenge? Isn’t Lily a scary woman as
well?” Nathaniel refuted unconvincingly. In his heart, he knew very well that being with Lily was better
than Mnie.
When Nathaniel was still with Lily, he did not have to worry about theirpany’s new products
because she always came up with fresh ideas suitable for their perfume market. He also would not
have to worry about perfume forms or the shortage of resources, as Lily would always solve them.
Nathaniel was so ignorant of his job that he did not know that a single mistake in a form could
destroy thepany.
Although he and Lily lived separately, there were always hearty home-cooked meals waiting for him
when he visited. Mnie, on the other hand, never cooked. She was too worried that the oil and smoke
would damage her skin and reduce the sensitivity of her fingers.
Honestly, Lily was the ideal wife, but shecked appeal. She would always be too focused on her
experiments and ignore Nathaniel’s phone calls. Sometimes, when he found her attractive and wanted
to kiss her, the lingering smell of chemical substances on Lily would turn him off.
Mnie was not like that, as she always possessed a scent that could intoxicate him. Mnie was also
a vixen in bed, and after being with Mnie for a more extended period, he started to lose interest in
Lily and found her unappealing.
“You…” Eloise sighed and brought a chair over as she was tired of standing. She looked at Nathaniel
and said, “How long has Lily been together with you? Why didn’t she seek revenge before? Why did
she choose to do it now? Are you sure you’re unaware of the cause?
“I don’t care what happened, but since you’re a grown adult, you should know how to deal with your
problems. However, Nate, your taste in women is horrible! If my memories serve me right, Mnie is
from a working-ss family, right? Her parents are just regr folks,” Eloise asked.
It was true that Mnie was from a working-ss family, but he did not care much about it. In his
opinion, a capable man would be able to provide for his wife and make her happy. He did not want to
be a man that had to rely on a woman. Besides, Lily was also from a working-ss family.
“Although Mel’s family might not be rich, they’re still a normal family, and I’ve seen Mel’s parents too!
I’ve never once seen or heard Lily talk about her family after all these years together! For all you know,
she might be an orphan! How is her family better than Mel’s?”
Nathaniel had tried asking Lily about her family, but whenever he brought this up, she avoided talking
about it. After some time, Nathaniel just assumed she was an orphan, so she chose not to talk about it.
Hence, he just let this topic slide.
Eloise could only stare at her son like he was the biggest id*ot in the world. She could not understand
why he had not inherited her intelligence. Instead, he chose to resemble his father’s ignorant character.
“An orphan? Ha ha!” Eloiseughed in irony.
