Spoiled by Mr. Russell

Chapter 271

Nathaniel had thought about Lily when the news about his accident came out. Even his mother had gone to visit him. He knew there was no way Lily would not know about his accident. Still, she did not show up, and Melanie was the one who went to see him when the news first appeared on TV.

Eloise only smirked coldly at her shameless son, “Visit you? If I were Lily, I‘d have torn you to pieces after what you did to her. The nerve!”

“Mother! Am I not your son?” Nathaniel snapped.

How could she be siding with an outsider?

“I‘m saying this to you because you‘re my son, or else why should I care?!” She finished. Eloise noticed the apparent change in hier son‘s facial expression, and her tone softened, “It‘s not that I‘m trying to reprimand you. I‘m just trying to give you constructive criticism. I‘ve met many people, and I know Melanie is unsuitable for you.”

“Then what does this have to do with Lily? Is it because she‘s a talented perfumer? I‘m looking for a wife, not a perfumer. Besides, did you see how she‘s seeking revenge? Isn‘t Lily a scary woman as well?” Nathaniel refuted unconvincingly.

In his heart, he knew very well that being with Lily was better than Melanie. When Nathaniel was still with Lily, he did not have to worry about their company‘s new products because she always came up with fresh ideas suitable for their perfume market. He also would not have to worry about perfume formulas or the shortage of resources, as Lily would always solve them.

Nathaniel was so ignorant of his job that lie did not know that a single mistake in a formula could destroy the company. Although he and Lily lived separately, there were always hearty home–cooked

meals waiting for him when he visited. Melanie, on the other hand, never cooked. She was too worried that the oil and smoke would damage her skin and reduce the sensitivity of her fingers.

Honestly, Lily was the ideal wife, but she lacked appeal. She would always be too focused on her experiments and ignore Nathaniel‘s phone calls. Sometimes, when he found her attractive and wanted to kiss her, the lingering smell of chemical substances on Lily would turn him off.

Melanie was not like that, as she always possessed a scent that could intoxicate him. Melanie was also a vixen in bed, and after being with Melanie for a more extended period, he started to lose interest in Lily and found her unappealing.

“You...” Eloise sighed and brought a chair over as she was tired of standing. She looked at Nathaniel and said, “How long has Lily been together with you? Why didn‘t she seek revenge before? Why did she choose to do it now? Are you sure you‘re unaware of the cause?

“I don‘t care what happened, but since you‘re a grown adult, you should know how to deal with your problems. However, Nate, your taste in women is horrible! If my memories serve me right, Melanie is from a working–class family, right? Her parents are just regular folks,” Eloise asked.

It was true that Melanie was from a working–class family, but he did not care much about it. In his opinion, a capable man would be able to provide for his wife and make her happy. He did not want to be a man that had to rely on a woman. Besides, Lily was also from a working–class family.

“Although Mel‘s family might not be rich, they‘re still a normal family, and I‘ve seen Mel‘s parents too! I‘ve never once seen or heard Lily talk about her family after all these years together! For all you know, she might be an orphan! How is her family better than Mel‘s?” © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Nathaniel had tried asking Lily about her family, but whenever he brought this up, she avoided talking about it. After some time, Nathaniel just assumed she was an orphan, so she chose not to talk about it.

Hence, he just let this topic slide.

Eloise could only stare at her son like he was the biggest id*ot in the world. She could not understand why he had not inherited her intelligence. Instead, he close to resemble his father‘s ignorant character.

“An orphan? Ha ha!” Eloise laughed in irony.
