Spoiled by Mr. Russell

Chapter 23

Alexander’s car rocketed down the road. Soon they lost the cars behind them.

“Nate must‘ve sent people to follow me. It‘s probably to see if I‘m still in contact with Rebirth. “Lily turned her head back toward Alexander as she spoke.

“Huh?” Alexander raised his eyebrows. “Did you promise him you wouldn‘t return to Rebirth?

“I didn‘t promise him anything, but he probably felt that he had convinced me to.” Lily did not promise Nathaniel anything, but Nathaniel still thought his lame lies had successfully fooled her again. He was the same person as usual and thought he was familiar with Lily because the old Lily would give him all her trust.

However, Lily witnessed Nathaniel‘s betrayal and affair with her own eyes. She watched his and Melanie‘s illicit relationship and lost all of Lily‘s trust. How could she ever believe any of Nathaniel‘s words again?

“So, what‘s your plan now?”

Without interfering with her decision, Alexander was very interested, and he was even a little curious about what she would do to make them pay. Frankly, that Hall sc*mbag had hurt Lily so badly, so Alexander planned to seek justice for her, but now it seemed his wife did not entirely need his protection as she had her ways.

Lily looked toward the front calmly. “He wants to hold a press conference and make me take the fall for what happened during the competition.”

“Oh?” Alexander‘s voice was calm, and his eyes were cold. “What time is the press conference?

“He didn‘t say, but I guess it‘s tomorrow or tonight.”

“Why?”

“Because he is desperate.” Lily turned her head and looked at Alexander. “Last night‘s event not only thoroughly discredited him but also ruined MN Inc.‘s reputation. He doesn‘t have the patience to wait longer. What‘s more, the organizing committee is also investigating this case. We need to solve this matter as quickly as possible.”

“Are you going to oblige Nathaniel‘s wishes?” Although he asked, Alexander did not think Lily would be so obedient to Nathaniel.

“Unless I‘m out of my mind,” Lily said, “What was once mine will be mine again.”

In Alexander‘s eyes, Lily‘s little face was as tranquil as he remembered. She was beautiful, unlike the others who only caught people‘s attention at first glance. Still, looking at her only made her more irresistible, making Alexander want to pamper and care for her. Alexander tucked Lily’s hair behind her ear and uttered affectionately, “Turn to me whenever you need me.”

These simple words made Lily’s heart warm. Over the past few years of dating Nathaniel, she used to do everything independently. Nathaniel was busy starting a business and socializing, never having time to eat dinner, watch movies, or even listen to Lily talk

Lily would only feel his warmth for a few days when they released new products. She would feel inferior to MN Inc.’s employees any other time. If Lily complained a little, he would want her to be generous and reasonable, not irritable. Still, she got used to it as time went by.

Hearing Alexander’s words at this moment, she teared up a little. She leaned on his shoulder instinctively, whispering, “I will.” As Alexander did not expect she would take the initiative to lean on

him, he was slightly startled. Lily whispered in his ears, and the corners of his mouth upturned instantly. 1 “Where are we going now?” Lily asked softly while feeling surprisingly calm when laying in Alexander’s arms.

“Going to dinner,” he said. “You haven‘t eaten yet, right?” “How did you know?” Lily was shocked as if Alexander had installed a monitor on her.
