Spoiled by Mr. Russell

Chapter 64

Lucas shook his head, “I am not sure about that, but Ms. Christian‘s attitude was steadfast in her tone. We can almost guarantee our victory based on the evidence we have so far. Therefore, you don‘t need to worry too much, Mr. Hall.”

Still, Nathaniel was distraught. How could he not be?

The lawyer was not worried because he had only seen superficial evidence. After all, Nathaniel knew the company‘s products had succeeded over the years because of Lily‘s efforts. Why was she so decisive that there was no turning back? Nathaniel was stuck between a rock and a hard place. If he could not turn the tide, everyone at MN Inc. would have to fight until the bitter end.

Lily should know that she had no chance of winning, but why did she refuse to give in? Did Rebirth give her confidence, or was she holding a hidden trump card? Nathaniel was at a loss for an answer.

“Understood. When will the court session begin?”

“Next week.”

“Get ready. Also, call Lily a few more times. Tell her we can solve this out of court for the sake of our past relationship. Talk to her in a roundabout way. Do you understand?”

“Yes, but...” Lucas was a little confused. “You can leave,” Nathaniel said. Lucas left while still having doubts.

Melanie walked in right after Lucas exited. She never knocked when she entered the CEO‘s office. Everyone in the company knew that although Melanie was the R&D department‘s nominal director, she was their CEO‘s fiancée.

Recently, the gossip that was going around became a topic of discussion. Seeing Melanie waltz into the CEO‘s office, everyone could not help but talk in whispers.

“Hey, have you read the news online? The one about our CEO and his fiancée.”

“Who‘s the CEO‘s fiancée?”

“Isn‘t it Melanie? Do you still need to guess?”

“I know the news. It‘s about a third wheel who came between a couple of many years. Things went sour, and she stole our company‘s confidential information before leaving. She is...”

“Lily!”

“That‘s right, Lily! If I‘m not mistaken, isn‘t she the company‘s employee? She sometimes comes to the headquarters. Isn‘t she a technician?”

“Yes, that Lily. She looked like a lovely lady, so I didn‘t expect her to be someone like that. I saw her being questionable with our CEO once, but I didn‘t expect this to happen.”

“It‘s not just questionable. Lily and the CEO were supposedly getting married. I‘m still wondering how Melanie wasn‘t angry with something so obvious?”

“What? Getting married?!” Everyone was shocked. “That‘s right. I overheard Lily and Mr. Hall discussing fixing a time to get their marriage certificate.”

“What? Quick, tell me all about it. Is the situation going to turn around now?”

A group of employees was busy on the WhatsApp group chat. Everyone was gossiping and seemed increasingly excited about it, especially since the protagonist was right before them.

Melanie, who was in the office, turned around and glanced at the employees working outside. From time to time, she could feel them throwing glances at her. She closed the blinds, feeling a little annoyed. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

‘Bunch of trash!‘

“Nate, you haven‘t taken me out recently,” Melanie snuggled up to Nathaniel and said sweetly, “I‘ve been feeling stuffy.” “You‘re still in the mood to go out? Don‘t you know what‘s happening with the company and me?” Nathaniel gulped down his coffee and continued, “Are you aware that Lily is determined to sue us?”
