Spoiled by Mr. Russell

Chapter 43

George could not tolerate others questioning him like this. “Ms. Gray, mind your words,” George said with a darkened expression.

“There‘s nothing wrong with my words. I‘m just speaking my mind. I don‘t know Ms. Christian‘s background, but I will never let a plagiarist into my team!” After saying this, Jenny Gray turned and left the office.

“M–Ms. Gray! W–Wait...” The human resources inanager could not stop Jenny and sighed embarrassedly. “Ms. Gray is short–tempered and blunt with her words, Mr. Will. However, she is doing this for the good of the company. Please don‘t mind her attitude.”

“Would she still be the project manager if I minded her attitude?” George shook his head and turned toward Lily, saying, “You shouldn‘t take her words seriously too. That‘s just how Ms. Gray is, but you‘ll get to know her better. She has a kind heart, even though she has a bad temper and is overly blunt. I think you two will be able to work together and get along well in the future.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

‘Get along, huh?‘ Lily felt highly skeptical but still nodded. “I understand the doubt and distrust Ms. Gray and the others feel toward me. Still, I am very grateful for this opportunity, Mr. Will. I will do my best for this company.” George felt quite satisfied with Lily‘s answer. He recalled something and added, “Oh, there‘s still no conclusion regarding the new product competition, and MN Inc. is determined to push us. What are your thoughts on this?” His question was rather subtle, but it was apparent Lily needed to settle it.

“Rest assured, Mr. Will. I shall resolve this matter as soon as possible. I believe the best proof is to use my capabilities to prove myself,” Lily immediately replied to George‘s implied question.

After pondering, George patted Lily‘s arm. “If that‘s so, I hope everything goes well! However, Reborn will not interfere or respond to this matter, even though you have signed a contract with us. Do you understand?”

“Yes, I understand.” Lily knew their stance on this situation. The matter would be between herself, Nathaniel, and MN. Inc if Rebirth did not intervene. However, she would implicate Rebirth if they sided with her, or worse, affect La Beauté Group‘s public image. Although, it was not that Lily did not want to refute MN. Inc, she was just waiting for the right time.

Olivia headed straight to the CEO‘s office after returning to the company building. No one stopped her, as it was Nathaniel who called her back. She walked toward the door but heard voices from within as she was about to knock.

“Organize these maierials and send a copy of them to the lawyer. Don‘t forget the online media. Hire internet trolls as soon as possible, and do it discreetly.” It was evident that it was Nathaniel‘s voice.

Olivia raised her eyebrows. ‘Materials? Is he talking about the documents his men took from the laboratory last time?‘

Those were the documents Olivia had felt unease about before. They were the most vital

evidence proving she and Lily had previously worked together. Still, Nathaniel had taken these documents away, planning to use them against Lily.

To make matters worse, Lily did not seem concerned about those documents, while Olivia was freaking out. ‘I must remind Lily of this!‘ She held her phone, wanting to send a message to Lily. After typing just a few words, someone tapped her shoulder from behind, asking, “Why don‘t you go inside?”

“Oh, I just arrived,” Olivia replied hurriedly. The commotion outside alerted Nathaniel as he asked, “What‘s going on out there?”
