Chapter 122
If Olivia continued her charades, it would only lead to her having no salary. Without income, she would
go into debt with expenses like rent, utilities, etc. After all, money was everything, and without it, life
would be miserable.
Olivia returned to work as usual. If Nathaniel still insisted on deducting her salary, she could sue him.
Besides, she wanted to return to see how they solved the issue.
She was pretty clear about how the staff worked. Nathaniel would not want to keep her if she did not
have the capabilities. The industry was relatively a niche, and very few people had outstanding
perfuming skills. That was also why MN. Inc. was so reliant on Lily. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Could it be that Melanie was also quite skillful?
…
It was 6 p.m. at the hotel. After Melanie and Nathaniel finished their phone call, Melanie cried for a
while. Then she fell asleep when she was tired and woke up quite late. She quickly got up to shower
and dressed up for that night’s planned activities.
Melanie knew her appearance would be advantageous, especially since she was gentle, pleasant, and
good at showing off her assets. Her amorous eyes possessed a unique charm, which helped her hold
on to Nathaniel firmly.
Just a quick shedding of tears would result in swollen eyes. Melanie sighed as she removed her
eyeshadow and covered it with a darker one. Then she applied contouring powder. After adjusting her
makeup, her swelling was not visible, making her look radiant.
She put down her contour and went to apply her lipstick. After applying it twice, she felt her stomach
twist, and she could hardly control it. Melanie quickly covered her lips, rushed to the bathroom, and
vomited. However, she did not spit out much. Most of it was clear fluid, but her stomach was churning,
and she felt highly uncomfortable.
She composed herself, stroked her lower abdomen with one hand, and became increasingly sure of
her guess that she might be pregnant. Melanie found it hard to describe how she felt as she could not
decide if she was happy or unhappy.
Still, there was no reason to be unhappy since Nathaniel would undoubtedly marry her if she were
pregnant. After that, Melanie would officially become Mrs. Hall. However, it might not be as joyful as
she expected. She had fantasized about this countless times, but now that her fantasy had come true,
she thought it did not feel so satisfying.
Melanie thought Lily did not care a single bit. After working and fighting for so long, Melanie discovered
that Lilt cared less about Nathaniel than those awards. The past made Melanie think that her future
path was in shambles. Nathaniel’s climb to the upper class seemed a long way off. To be precise,
Melanie thought it was impossible.
‘Will I ever live a life of wealth and peace?’ Melanie thought, ‘How long can this lifestyle and stability
last? Nate and I might be unable to withstand more vigorous challenges anyway.’ She tightened her
grip on her lower abdomen as her heart grew heavy.
