Chapter 20
In the end, one of them took the initiative and stepped forward, “Lily, we‘re just following: orders. You
can seek Mr. Hall if you are dissatisfied. We‘re only doing what Mr. Hall instructed us to do!”
“All right, you think i‘m scared?” Lily focused her gaze on the man as she removed her phone from her
pocket to call Nathaniel. However, there was no answer, even though Lily was sure Nathaniel was
reachable. She knew then that Nathaniel was doing what she did to him.
Nathaniel thought it would frustrate her until she finally admitted her mistake. The man before Lily
revealed a smug smile as if he knew her call would go unanswered. The man said, “Lily, your assistant
has been beating around the bush for over an hour. It‘s pointless to waste time like this when Mr. Hall
has plenty of it. Sure, the information he wants is confidential, but it belongs to the company, and Mr.

said, “Oh, wow. It seems Nate has good intentions.” Then she looked at Oliva, smiling coldly. However,
Olivia, who was ready to fight to the death against Nathaniel‘s lackeys, was surprised by Lily‘s words.
“Lily, you worked hard for those documents. Aren‘t they precious to you? They must have ulterior
motives if they want to take them away all of a sudden!”
Lily knew Nathaniel was watching her and wanted to take away her documents. If she were to argue
with him, he would have enough information and evidence to prove Melanie was the one who
developed all their previous perfumes.
Without blinking, Lily said sternly, “Give it to them, Liv. My colleague here is right. No matter how
confidential the information is, it belongs to the company, and we should give it to Mr. Hall since he had
requested it.
Olivia was reluctant, but Lily had already spoken, so she could only give them what they wanted. She
looked at Lily again, and she did not seem to change her mind. Olivia was puzzled and wanted to ask
Lily what she was thinking, but she refrained
The documents were thick and piled high. The men moved them to the parked car and immediately
took the archives room key.
“You guys have already taken all the documents, so why would you want the keys to an empty room?!”
Olivia thundered.
“Mr. Hall requested that...”
“Give it to him, Liv,” Lily said indifferently, raising her chin to signal Olivia to hand over the key.
Nathaniel believed those documents were crucial, but the essential details were in Lily’s mind. He
thought he could threaten her by taking all her documents away.

backward.
The man was agile and grabbed the key. Then he turned to get into the car, wanting to return to Nathaniel, but Lily did not question him.
Olivia watched the car drive off and could not help but ask, “Why did you give them the documents?
How can you prove you developed all those perfumes without them?!” “Liv, do you honestly think I can‘t
prove myself without that data?” Lily smiled mockingly.” Don‘t worry. I‘ve got other ways to do that.”
She would dare to fight back if Nathaniel set her up.
Although Olivia was still puzzled, she did not ask further when she noticed Lily‘s confidence.” Weren‘t
you planning to quit MN Inc.? Why did you come back?”
