Lillian was deeply dissatisfied with Nora. "Don't think I'll thank you for doing this! Don't you forget who
should be blame for me ending up like this! Nora, in my heart you are just like Nathan! You're all
assholes."
"Do you think you can trample on others' life and dignity just because have a good family background?
Nora, I hate you! I will not spare you as long as I am alive."
"Lillian, don't think you are poor and innocent! Nora felt Lillian was naive. "Five years ago, Oscar and I
were in love, but you were shameless and trying to seduce him."
"Now that he's gone, you framed me in the name of revenge, just to justify your actions and make
yourself feel better. If you never make waves, you will not be swept away."
"Lillian, I am not a person easy to mess with. If you dare to use such bad means against me, then I
have the ability to let you suffer from what you did. If you don't provoke me, I will not get back on you."
"If you hadn't done anything evil, how could it come back to you? But this time, it's you who suffer, so
you can't accept it. But have you thought about the consequences I would face when you did this?"
"When I was humiliated by Nathan, what I felt is what you feel now. I'm married, and I'm sorry not only
to myself, but to my husband, and to the reputations of two families. I'm under a lot more pressure than
you are. So, Lillian, don't think you're a good guy. You don't deserve it!"
Nora spoke in one breath, letting off her pressure she had been feeling. "Think for yourself why you are
in this situation. Shouldn't you be responsible for it?"
Lillian was silent, and felt a little shameless in her heart, but she still did not apologize. After all, she
could not let go of what Nora had done to her.
"It's none of my business if you want to live your life like this. Get out of here when you're well rested. If
you're hungry, clean up and come down to eat." Nora turned and left the large and quiet bedroom.
Lillian sat on the bed and closed her eyes.
She felt conflicted and painful. She admitted that what Nora said was reasonable. If she hadn't made
waves, nothing would have happened.
She grasped the quilt, and the silk coverlet went messy, just like her heart.
Lillian had thought a lot before she got up to clean up herself.
The clothes prepared were brand new, and she came out of the shower and put on the clothes.
She looked her haggard face in the mirror. It was just a few days, but she seemed to be much older.
Lillian saw the makeup on the dresser and she put on a makeup to improve her complexion.
After Lillian went to the curved staircase, the servant invited her to the dining room.
Nora was sitting at the main table having breakfast alone. She was wearing a red dress with long wavy
hair, and she was always like the most dazzling and passionate red rose. She had the ability to draw
everyone's attention to her.
Lillian, who always thought she was in good shape, felt dwarfed in front of Nora.
Lillian went over and the servant brought the breakfast before her. "Please enjoy yourself, Ms. Cole."
Lillian looked at Nora and her throat stiffened. "Thank you for saving me," she said stiffly.
"Don't be so hard on yourself if you're so reluctantly." Nora drank her milk slowly and turned her eyes
toward Lillian. "Besides, I saved you not only because I didn't like what Nathan did to you, but because
I have a proposal that I need you to cooperate with."
Lillian stared at Nora, waiting for her next words.
"Have breakfast first. Or you will feel weak."
Lillian looked away, lowered her eyes, and silently picked up the sandwich on the plate and took a bite.
Nora had finished her meal and was dabbing at the corners of her lips and fingers with a napkin.
She put down her napkin and said, "I'll wait for you in the living room. Take your time."
Lillian nodded and went on eating her breakfast. She was really hungry now.
When Lillian had finished eating, she went to the living room and sat down on the sofa.
Nora was reading the latest fashion magazine, with rose tea on the table. The exquisite saucer looked
expensive.
There were some fresh fruits and snacks on the tea table as well
"It's good for woman's skin to drink some scented tea." Nora asked her servant to pour Lillian a cup of
tea.
"Tell me what you want." Lillian went back to business.
Nora closed the magazine in her hand and placed it gently on the coffee table. "Do you want to avenge
yourself?"
"Avenge myself? On you or on Nathan?" Lillian gave a slight smile. "Nathan's right. I am nobody
compared with you."
"But I know where I am today. I hurt you once, and you taught me a lesson. We're even now."
"Good." Nora readily agreed, "We got even, but what about Nathan? We can take him down if we work
together. Are you willing to work with me?"
Lillian dropped her eyes. "To work with you? The Mills family is powerful. Can we do it? If anything
happens to Nathan, the Mills family will come after us, right? Nora, don't make things too simple."
"Nathan's misdeeds over the years were not against you or me once. The reason why he is safe and
sound is because the Mills family can arrange everything for him. Even if you are the lady of the
Cooper family, you can't stand up to him. It's not wise to stand up to the Mills family."
"I wouldn't put us in danger if I can't handle the matter. So what if he has the Mills family supported
him? In addition to being the lady of the Cooper family, I am also a member of the Way family. If that
doesn't work, I still have Rose, the Bright family. Who do you think has the better chance to win?"
"Of course, you can choose not to work with me. Then I'll think of other ways to deal with him." Nora
didn't want to force Lillian.
"What do you need me to do?" Lillian trusted Nora, and she didn't want to let Nathan take pleasure in
her pain.
Nathan not only slept with her, but also let other men humiliate her. If Nora hadn't stopped it, the
consequences would have been terrible.
She didn't know if she would have had the courage to live if the terrible thing happened.
Naturally, she hated Nathan and wanted him to be punished. Only then could she feel calm in her
heart. Otherwise, she had suffered for nothing.
