Chapter 857
Lily picked up the phone, glanced at it, and rejected the call to continue eating. It rang again soon after, but she rejected it again. This
repeated several times.
"Well, that's annoying. Ill teach them a lesson for you if you want," Alexander noticed his wife's impatient expression and said half-jokingly.
He wanted to answer on her behalf when the phone rang again.
Lily once again rejected the call and shook her head, "Then you'll need to teach a lot of people lessons."
After some thought, Alexander raised his brows and asked, "Is it a reporter? IV
The calls were frequent and were not one but many callers simultaneously. The only possibility for this was they were reporters who were
eager for news.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLily shrugged, stood up, and cleared the dishes. She was already full and had no appetite to continue
eating.
"Leave it. I'll do the dishes," Alexander said.
Lily did not listen to him this time. She brought all the dishes to the kitchen with him and placed them
into the dishwasher. The phone in the living room was still ringing. She looked at it but did not bother to
acknowledge it.
"It’s because of Mr. Adler?" As always, Alexander could accurately guess the main point after some
thought.
Lily nodded, "I know that once this news breaks out, I will be troubled for a while."
There was no conclusive evidence to prove that it was she the one who exposed the news. However,
she recently fought fiercely with the Perfumers' Society and caused a big stir. Therefore, when
scandals about Perfumers' Society got revealed one after another, it naturally attracted everyone's
eyes to her.
"It doesn't matter who was the one who exposed the news as long as it's the truth. There's nothing to
be afraid of."
"I'm not afraid. It's just a little annoying." Lily leaned back with both hands on the countertop, looked up
at the ceiling, and sighed. Her initial dream was to quietly be a perfumer and make perfumes that she
and others liked. They might differ in style and smell but could make people feel refreshed and happy.
Everything came and went in this world. There were many passersby in one’s life and many things one
could not keep secret. She wanted to make a lasting and memorable smell to leave her footprint so that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsomeone would remember her. It was pretty poetic when she thought about it like this.
Little did she expect such a small dream to be so tricky to realize.
Nathaniel chased fame and fortune in the past, taking every honor and credit that belonged to Lily. Not just that, he also cooperated with
Melanie to trick her. Afterward, Lily joined Rebirth and had a good time there.
However, the Perfumers’ Society set its sights on Lily when she made some achievements. They invited her, but it was coercion. In their
opinion, it was her honor to receive an invitation from them, regardless of whether or not she was willing. They did not allow her to refuse.
She ultimately refused them, which then led to a crazy counterattack. They nitpicked, found faults with her, and even tried to disqualify her as
a perfumer. On the other hand, Tanner Corporation kept accusing her of various matters.
'I don't understand why it has to be so difficult for me just quietly to do something I’m passionate about! Why can’t they concentrate on their
careers instead of conspiring against me?!
