Chapter 14 “If you didn’t run away, why didn’t you come home yesterday? Do you know I stayed up all

night for you?” Nathaniel paused before continuing, “I’m sure there’s some misunderstanding about

yesterday. I don’t blame you. Just come home, and it’ll be all right after we talk things out, okay?”

After some pondering, Lily smiled faintly. “Sure, I’ll meet you at the office later.” She hung up the call

and walked back to the dining table. It was only now that Alexander looked up at her,” You’re leaving

now?”

“Nah, I’m not in a hurry.” Smiling, she sat back down and adjusted her seat as she was in high spirits

and had a better appetite. In an unhurried manner, she continued to eat. “I’m not the one who is in a

hurry.”

There were countless occasions when Lily had to wait for Nathaniel to return. Was it finally his turn to

wait for her now?

“He’s not going to let what happened yesterday go easily.” Nathaniel was a petty man. He was

calculative even about the slightest things. One could only imagine how big of a deal he would make

about the humiliation he faced yesterday. Moreover, Lily’s departure was undoubtedly a fatal blow to

his small company. “Me too,” Lily said as she looked at Alexander with a smile plastered on her face.

Alexander smiled back at her too.

Nathaniel waited for the whole day and even skipped lunch during his wait. However, Lily was still

nowhere to be seen at 3 pm. He called her, but she did not answer his calls again. Frustration filled him

up, and he almost smashed his phone to the ground.

“Nate, I told you we can’t trust Lily! It was too naive of you to believe in her.” Melanie was leaning

against the spacious leather sofa while slicing an apple. “What happened last night was a trap set up

for us. Remember when I told you she seemed strange yesterday? You said there wasn’t any problem

with her, but look at…” 1

“Shut up!” Nathaniel was frustrated to the brim. He thought about calling Lily again but knew it would be

pointless, so he vented his anger on Melanie instead. Melanie got upset that Nathaniel yelled at her.

She pursed her lips and lowered her gaze. “Why are you getting mad at me? I wasn’t the one who

betrayed you and the company! I’ve been by your side, taking care of you! I was the only one who

cared about you all along!” Then, she walked over and handed Nathaniel the sliced apple plate. “Here!

You should still eat something no matter how mad you are. I’m concerned about your health. What

would I do if something happens to you?”

Melanie became teary-eyed as she spoke, looking as if her tears would fall any minute. Even though

she had a pitiful appearance now, she still looked beautiful. At that sight, Nathaniel’s heart instantly

softened as he took the plate from her with a sigh.

He circled his arın around her shoulders and comforted her, “I’m not mad at you. It’s just that I’m in an

awful mood. Forgive me for what I did earlier, okay? I’m sorry. I know you only want

the best for me. Darling, don’t cry anymore, all right?”

“You’re just coaxing me, but you’re still thinking about Lily.” Melanie cried and struggled slightly in his

embrace. However, her words and actions brought her closer to Nathaniel’s heart as it hit his soft spot.

“Mr. Hall, I…” The door opened and revealed Lily, who poked her head in. At the sight of Melanie and

Nathaniel being intimate, Lily smiled. “Oops. It seems like I came at a bad time.

Then I’ll…”

“Lily!” As soon as Nathaniel saw Lily, he retracted his hands from Melanie’s shoulders as if her skin

scorched him.

He strode toward Lily in big steps, afraid she would leave the next second. “Come back here!” Lily was

finally here after the long wait, and Nathaniel would not let her leave so quickly. “Where did you go?

Why didn’t you answer my calls? Do you know how worried I was? What have you been doing?” After a

series of questions, Nathaniel grabbed Lily’s wrist and pulled her into his office before closing the door.

Lily’s eyes widened because of what she saw. Nathaniel looked anxious, and he sounded genuinely

concerned about her. It was as if he truly cared about her, but what was he doing just before she

opened the door?

From the corner of her eye, Lily glanced at Melanie, who was on the other side of the room. Melanie

appeared to be sullen, but she immediately put on a gentle smile when Lily turned to

face her.

“Nate’s right. Lily, we were so anxious because you didn’t come home the whole night. Where have you

been? Why were you with those people from Rebirth? Did you hear some sort of nonsense from them?

You should be wary of them. They might be deceiving you!”
