Spoiled by Mr. Russell

Chapter 37

Nathaniel gradually put away his worried and concerned expression as his face turned sullen. He stared at Lily and asked, “Are you threatening me?” “Tonly want what I deserve.” Lily‘s request was straightforward. She was not greedy but could no longer hand over what belonged to her to others.

“Haha.” Nathaniel felt a little stuffy, so he casually loosened his tie and unbuttoned his shirt‘s top button. He stared down at Lily, arms akimbo, saying, “What do you deserve? Over the past few years, I paid for all your food, clothes, and rent. What else do you think you deserve?” Lily looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face before her and thought of how ridiculous Nathaniel looked. How could this man so casually assert his reasoning to such a degree so righteously? It angered her to the point where she laughed aloud. However, she was not angry at Nathaniel but at herself. How blind was she to fall in love and become fascinated by such a man over the years? She wondered why she could not see his true colors earlier on.

As Lily kept silent, Nathaniel continued criticizing her and assumed Lily knew she was at fault. “Don‘t think so highly of yourself just because you made a few perfumes. Who was the one who provided you with the raw materials and rented the laboratory? Where would you be without my support?” Lily slowly raised her head and said, “So, you admit that I developed most of MN Inc.‘s perfumes?” “So what? Do you think there will be any sales without operation, marketing, and advertising from the company?” Nathaniel‘s reasoning sounded plausible and made sense at first thought.

However, regarding the various loopholes in his words, Lily did not refute anything and just smiled. “It‘s good that you can admit this, at least. Since our discussion has come to this, it makes no sense for us to talk any longer.” She turned around and prepared to leave since she had achieved her goal. She saw no need to continue talking to Nathaniel.

“Hold on a moment!” How could Nathaniel let her go without a fight? He hurriedly caught up and grabbed Lily‘s clothes when something fell out of her pocket. Startled, Nathaniel instinctively reached out to grab the item. However, Lily had already picked it up and held it close to her chest. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“You recorded our conversation?!” Nathaniel looked at Lily in disbelief. He never expected the typically naive and obedient woman to play such a trick. His face sank as he attempted to grab the recording device. “Give that to me!” Lily could not let Nathaniel have the device, so she tightened her grip on it and stepped back.” Why are you afraid of this if you have a clear conscience?”

Nathaniel failed 10 snatch the device from Lily but did not try again. Instead, he looked at her and laughed. “How naive of you! Do you Guink this will change anything? I can say you fabricated the recording or tricked me into saying such things. Besides, do you think I haven‘t made any other preparations? I‘ll see you in court, Lily!”

Lily nodded and turned around, but someone was already standing in her way. She turned back and saw Nathaniel standing in the same spot, puffing the cigarette he had just removed from his pocket and lit with his lighter. He seemed calin because he had other plans to prevent Lily from leaving. “‘You want to force me with violence?” Lily raised her eyebrows and asked. “I didn‘t want to be violent. After all, we‘ve been together for quite some time, haven’t we?”
