His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1951

"You've worked hard.” Mike nodded. This was the first time he acknowledged what she said. He hated Rhea because she was vicious, scheming, and had no boundaries. Her heart was as black as coal. However, she had indeed worked very hard.

Mike could see the efforts she had put in regarding experimenting. Regardless of whether he had woken up early or gone to bed late, he noticed she was always in the laboratory, experimenting all day and night.

Rhea was either reading books or looking up information. He had never seen another woman that was as hardworking as her.

“Then, why is God so unfair?!" She slammed her hands onto the table, venting her dissatisfaction.

‘I worked so hard but failed, while Lily casually...’

"Hard work is nothing in the face of a prodigy,” Mike said.

"Huh?!" Rhea suddenly turned her head to look at him with surprise.

Mike breathed a sigh of relief before saying, "Yes, you're hardworking and talented, but there will always be an inherent gap between gifted individuals. Although effort can compensate for the gap, hard work is insignificant despite absolute talent.”

He had come to terms with this fact long ago. He was also someone who had gone through hard times. He had worked harder in the business industry and could endure hardships better than anyone else. Moreover, he thought his talent helped his business grow.

However, every growth would be met with bottleneck situations that were difficult to break through. He had struggled for a long time and plateaued. He even almost regressed to where he started.

Later, he met Alexander. Just a few words from him could resolve Mike's confusion, and the latter overcame his struggles immediately. Just like that, Mike managed to get out of his predicament.
