Spoiled by Mr Russell (Lily Christian and Alexander) novel Chapter 122

If Olivia continued her charades, it would only lead to her having no salary. Without income, she would go into debt with expenses like rent, utilities, etc. After all, money was everything, and without it, life would be miserable.

Olivia returned to work as usual. If Nathaniel still insisted on deducting her salary, she could sue him. Besides, she wanted to return to see how they solved the issue.

She was pretty clear about how the staff worked. Nathaniel would not want to keep her if she did not have the capabilities. The industry was relatively a niche, and very few people had outstanding perfuming skills. That was also why MN. Inc. was so reliant on Lily.

Could it be that Melanie was also quite skillful?

…

It was 6 p.m. at the hotel. After Melanie and Nathaniel finished their phone call, Melanie cried for a while. Then she fell asleep when she was tired and woke up quite late. She quickly got up to shower and dressed up for that night’s planned activities.

Still, there was no reason to be unhappy since Nathaniel would undoubtedly marry her if she were pregnant. After that, Melanie would officially become Mrs. Hall. However, it might not be as joyful as she expected. She had fantasized about this countless times, but now that her fantasy had come true, she thought it did not feel so satisfying.

Melanie thought Lily did not care a single bit. After working and fighting for so long, Melanie discovered that Lilt cared less about Nathaniel than those awards. The past made Melanie think that her future path was in shambles. Nathaniel’s climb to the upper class seemed a long way off. To be precise, Melanie thought it was impossible.

‘Will I ever live a life of wealth and peace?’ Melanie thought, ‘How long can this lifestyle and stability last? Nate and I might be unable to withstand more vigorous challenges anyway.’ She tightened her grip on her lower abdomen as her heart grew heavy.
