Her Heart Her Terms (Lily and Xavier) novel Chapter 232

Chapter 232 

Upon hearing this, Nadia didn’t ask any further questions and accepted Lily’s transfer request. “I’ll notify you once a decision is made. In the meantime, you can find something to do 

“okay” Lily left Nadia’s office and retumed to her desk, where she helped Queenie with se 

some Lasks. 

Just before lunch, Nadia sent her a message informing her that Mr. Devereux wanted to speak with her. 

Lily handed the completed documents to Queenie and made her way to the top flour to meet Terence. By the time she arrived, Terence had just hung up his coat. 

Terence, it’s not even lunchtime yet,” Lily said, closing the door behind her as she entered. “It’s not really the right time to discuss my design for the competition during working hours.” 

“Let’s talk about your transfer request,” Terence replied, his tired demeanor showing the lingering effects of the cold air outside 

The HR department hadn’t approved her request but had sought his approval instead. When he heard about it, he immediately abandoned his work and rushed back 

“I want a proper reason.” 

Lily hadn’t expected the issue to have reached him so quickly. “Because, originally, it was you who gave me the chance to join Lupier 

Terence was surprised she knew about this. 

“Thank you for helping me—” 

Betore she could finish, he interrupted her. “Lily, listen carefully. I’m not helping you I’m just giving you a fair chance. Of all the people who interviewed, you were the most outstanding 

“The company had already decided to hire you intemally. I just made sure they stuck with their original decision.” 

Falmess. The word echoed in Lily’s mind, bringing with it a wave of bittemess. 

She had never experienced taimess in her life. Growing up, she thought her parents would always be impartial, but she soon realized their decisions always favored Hayden 

She had hoped that when she married and started her own family, she could be a fair parent, giving her children the justice she never had. But she never anticipated that her manage would turn out to be so unjust. 

She had long since given up on expecting falmess. Yet, she didn’t expect Terence to be the one to give her a taste of fairness. 

“Seize every opportunity. That’s how you repay me for the taimess I’ve given you,” Terence continued, 

Terence thought Lily would face many more injustices in her future. As long as Sarah was around, talmess would remain out of reach 

Although he had only spoken to Sarah once on the phone, Terence was sure that she was someone who didn’t follow the rules. 

Lily realized that sometimes words couldn’t fully express what she was feeling. She had to admit Terence was right. 

Nevertheless, she insisted, “I’ll try my best and compete seriously, but when it comes to work, I want to decide for myself.” 

Nadia already had her reservations about Lily, and that opinion couldn’t be changed. Staying in the company and facing more doubts and challenges would only cause more trouble for Terence. 

In fact, the fairness Terence had offered her would be seen as an unfair advantage by others.
