Chapter 174 “Mr. Hall, shouldn‘t you be accompanying your girlfriend? Why are you here bothering
Lily? Lily is now our company‘s staff member, and she doesn‘t work for you anymore. If I were you. Mr.
Hall, I would take care of my own affairs. You best be off before you lose something valuable.”
Jenny‘s condescending tone surprised Lily. What did she even mean by taking care of his affairs and
losing something valuable? Nathaniel was also taken aback by Jenny‘s sudden mockery. He did not
know her, so he did not know how to react.
“Ahh! I remember now. I wanted to tell you something!” After shutting Nathaniel up, Jenny finally
remembered what she had wanted to tell Lily. Lily looked at her with curiosity. “What was it?” When
Jenny was about to share her discovery, she noticed Nathaniel was still there. She turned toward him
again. “Mr. Hall, don‘t you have something else to attend to? We‘re a little busy here, as you can see,
so could you kindly leave?“.
Before Nathaniel could react, Jenny added, “If there‘s anything important you‘d like to tell us, please
make an appointment at our head office. First of all, we‘re your competitors, and second, isn‘t it rude of
you to eavesdrop on our company‘s confidential information?” Nathaniel was flabbergasted. When did
he ever try to eavesdrop on their company‘s confidential information? He was just trying to talk to an
old friend! Since Jenny was so forthright about disliking him, he would not continue to sit there and be
insulted. After all, there was always a next time! Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“I‘ll leave you ladies, then. Let‘s get together and chat another time, Lily,” he bid them farewell and
stood up to leave.
Lily could only roll her eyes. ‘Who said I wanted to chat? The nerve of him!‘
After leaving the table, Nathaniel remembered Melanie was still not back. He hurried toward the
bathrooms, but he saw her walking out slowly before he got there. Even though she was still moving
carefully, she looked better than before. However, she was still slightly pale and worn out.
“Mel! Are you okay? Let‘s go back and get you in bed!” Nathaniel quickly walked over and held onto
her. He could not help but feel sorry as he assumed she was pale because of her morning sickness.
Melanie did not put up a fight and just nodded as she let him lead her out of the restaurant,
“Can you tell me now?” Lily said to Jenny as their eyes finally left the couple. Lily had wanted to ask
Jenny what she wanted to share, but Nathaniel and Melanie drew her attention until they left. She
shook her head slightly as she shifted her focus back to Jenny.
“Haha,” Jenny laughed slightly as she took a sip of her lemon water, “Guess what I saw in the
bathroom just now?”
Lily could only stare at her. She was getting to know a whole new Jenny. This lady, who was serious,
efficient, and sometimes bossy at work, was just like any other woman when it came
