Lily smiled silently. So, Jenny decided not to push the subject, “Okay then, miss secretive! Since you
have your knight in shining armor to pick you up, I won‘t be your escort then I‘ll take my leave See you!”
Lily nodded and parted ways with Jenny at the entrance of the building As Jenny was backing out of
the car park, she turned her head and saw Lily still standing there she was about to ask Lily why she
was still there when she saw Lily dashing across the other direction Out of curiosity, Jenny slowed
down her car to look at Lily. She saw Lily running toward a black sedan and hopped in. Then the car
drove off. The sedan windows were dark, so Jenny could not see the person sitting inside
“Gosh! I‘m just too nosy sometimes!” Shaking her head, Jenny smiled. As she stepped on the
accelerator, the black sedan overtook her and sped off, “W–Was that a Maybach?!” Jenny felt dizzy
when she noticed the brand of the car Lily was in
“You smell good today. Did you just shower?” Alexander said as he extended his hand to stroke Lily‘s
hair
“Yup, I even washed my hair thrice,” Lily announced as she moved closer and leaned against his
shoulder comfortably.
Alexander adjusted his posture so Lily could lean on him more comfortably. He gathered some of Lily‘s
hair, placed it close to his nose, and took another sniff, “Yeah, it smells perfect.” “I finally passed my
test, and now I‘m an official Rebirth staff member,” Lily happily announced as she recalled her
conversation with Jenny a while ago. She was proud of winning Jenny‘s acknowledgment by proving
herself through her own capabilities. Since quitting MN Inc., Lily had not made any new friends in the
industry. She was also weary from her ongoing lawsuit and the bad press that followed suit. Still, she
was grateful that Alexander was by her side whenever she had to deal with these exhausting
interpersonal relationships
Alexander frowned after hearing what Lily said “What do you mean? I thought George already stated
that you‘re a staff of Rebirth.”
“S – Sorry, that‘s not what I meant. Anyway, this is just the first step for the company to acknowledge
me.” Lily knew that this was only the beginning. Although she got a good head start, Lily needed to
ensure she could continue growing so that she could stand alongside Alexander
Alexander thought of what Lily said and was pretty confused with how the conversation turned, but he
decided to let it slide. All that mattered to him was Lily‘s happiness. “Well, MN Inc.’s factories will be
having some issues soon,” Alexander continued while stroking one of Lily’s hands.
Lily had long, slender fingers and a very fair complexion, but her hands were not smooth That was
because she had to work in a lab, conducting various experiments and coming into contact with
different chemicals. Some parts of her hands were smooth, but the rest were
rough. Alexander felt a rough spot on her hand, and he stroked it fondly.
“What type of issues?” Lily questioned while allowing him to play with her hand. “I heard it has
something to do with the essential oil used in their fragrances. Their final product couldn‘t pass the
approval test, so now they‘re trying to save it. They even called for their staff members who were on
vacation,” Alexander explained.
“So, that‘s why,” Lily mumbled. “What?” Alexander looked at Lily and asked.
“Oh, it‘s nothing.” Lily looked straight at him. “Nate and Mel called me today. They said there was
something they‘d like to discuss with me in person. Now that I think about it, it might be related to their
essential oil problem.”
“Did you agree to their invitation?” Alexander questioned her. “Of course not!” Lily scorned, “I‘m the
defendant, and they‘re the plaintiff. We‘re not even supposed to meet outside of court! Besides, I no
longer work for MN Inc., so why should I be involved in their problems? There‘s no way I‘ll see them
because of this.”
Lily pursed her lips in annoyance. It might have been because she had just taken a shower, but her lips
looked slightly darker with a tinge of baby pink. Still, she had a disdainful expression, and Alexander
loved seeing it. He moved closer, grabbed Lily‘s chin, and pulled her in for a kiss.
