Chapter 798
"Lily, what's going on?"
Olivia tilted her head and asked.She observed Lily getting up to close the door, but she didn't return for
quite some time, and then, it was only partially closed.
"Shush!" Lily gestured.
"I'm watching a show."
Olivia was speechless! Wasn't Lily the one who said not to meddle in other people's business? Olivia
did not know why Lily was interested until, amidst the yelling, Lily suddenly remembered who that man
was.
That man that barged in was Joseph Tanner's illegitimate son, Damian.The fact that Lily had heard of
him was also purely coincidental.
Jenny had told her at the time that Nathaniel had taken a job with Tanner Corporation and proposed

him being the person in charge.
Lily had no idea when he became the project manager of Tanner Corporation or how he became
involved with them.
However, Jenny warned Lily that their complicated relationship could lead him to pull some tricks on
her.
With that in mind, Jenny felt that his proposal to start a perfume department at Tanner Corporation was
a shot at Lily.
At that time, Lily didn't think much about it and just smiled.She had never regarded anyone as her rival
in making perfumes.She had entered the business purely out of love, which allowed her to persevere
until today.
However, an interesting thing happened.
Not long after the perfume project was launched, there was a change in the person in charge.
Now, Damian was the one who led the project.It was common knowledge that Joseph was doing this to
advance his illegitimate son's career.
Joseph was creating opportunities for Damian, and Nathaniel was the sacrificial lamb.
Lily no longer cared about Nathaniel's affairs, so she did not find out what happened afterward.He was
a victim of a power struggle.
Given his nature, he probably found it challenging to make concessions and put up with that.
The two rooms were pretty close to each other.
Seeing that the door was ajar, coupled with the fact that this floor was relatively empty, Lily just had to
focus to eavesdrop on what was happening.
This was a skill she had picked up by learning kickboxing.She could hear everything if she
concentrated hard enough.
In Naomi's ward, she was lying on the hospital bed with tears streaming down her face, looking pitiful.
Coupled with her reddened eyes and how she did not say a word in the face of Damian's accusation, it
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgave off the impression that she had indeed been wronged.
The rash on her face was still there, so she did not look very presentable.
Compared to how she looked on stage, her current state provoked even more sympathy from people
who saw her.
"Naomi Schiffer, who paid you to slander the Tanner family like this? I don't think I've mistreated you,
from contacting you to settling your payment.Why are you doing this, and who paid you?"
To Damian, Naomi was the crux of all the problems.
As long as she admitted that it was an act of defamation, all of the issues would be resolved.
"Say something! Do you think I'd buy into your tears?!"
He growled, "Who paid you? Is it someone I know? Is he trying to besmirch my company?!"
"Mr.Tanner, Ms.Schiffer is still recovering from her allergies.Don't you think it's too much to interrogate
her like this?"
A reporter, who also happened to be Naomi's fan, could not stand it any longer and stepped in.
"She's trying to slander me! Do you understand what that means? Who will compensate my company
while she recuperates?" Damian yelled as his head whipped around to her.
