His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 424

She fiddled with the doll with her fingers, sighed, and said, “Tell me, where did that young man go?”

Across her, the wooden doll stared back with a smile.

Nathaniel called Eloise as soon as he got home, but both of his calls were declined. Seeing this, he

assumed that it must be inconvenient for her to pick up his calls, so he dared not to call again.

However, he was too agitated to sit still and turned on his computer to look at that day‘s sales data and

check the situation online.

He saw that the sales were still declining, and although the rate of product returns had decreased,

there were still many applications for it.

Nathaniel had already released a statement, so he could not retract it. Now, the only matter he could

focus on was to deliberately slow down the after sales process and try to minimize the losses while he

rebuilds his reputation.

At the same time, new staff were being recruited to speed up the processes in the laboratory. Nathaniel

planned to launch a few new products to replace the tarnished ones without prioritizing quality. In his

mind, it is only through introducing new fragrances that the company could continue to strive.

He spun around in his chair restlessly more than 20 times, and his phone finally rang. As soon as he

heard this, he instantly grabbed his phone like his life depended on it. When he picked it up and saw

that it was indeed a call from Eloise, he quickly picked it up. “Mom!”

“Shut up!” A stern voice was heard from the other end of the phone. It was evident that whoever that

voice belonged to was trying to keep things under cover.

Nathaniel was stunned for a moment before he quickly returned to his senses. Then, he called out From NôvelDrama.Org.

again, “Ms. Neville…”

“It seems like you‘re getting too comfortable with me. You‘ve been overstepping your boundaries too

much. Who told you that you could call me any time you want?! Do you not remember what I‘ve said

before?!” It was obvious that Eloise was fuming, although she was trying her best to keep her voice

down.

“I...” Nathaniel couldn‘t defend himself.

Eloise had mentioned several times that he should not call her out of the blue. Instead, he should leave

a message for her to reply at her convenience. She also said only to call her Ms. Neville to avoid being

caught.

This was what the two had agreed on. However, Eloise‘s attitude toward him had softened a lot

recently. She would advise him, and the two would meet up more frequently. That caused him to forget

her rules as he let his guard down and called her mom.

Seeing that it was his fault, Nathaniel couldn‘t refute it and continued to listen earnestly.

“I‘m sorry, Ms. Neville. I‘ve made a mistake,” he apologized once she was done.

On the other hand, Eloise seemed calmer after a few deep breaths and her sudden outburst. “Okay,

now, let‘s get down to business.”

“To be honest, I feel on edge. I feel like Lily has

more dirt on me. Is she waiting for me to retaliate?”

Although everything was going smoothly at the moment, the uneasiness in Nathaniel’s heart continued

to grow. Lily had yet to make a move, yet Nathaniel had a terrible suspicion.

“Lily? What does this have to do with her? Did you go and look for her?!” Eloise asked in surprise.

She had been very occupied the past two days and paid no attention to online news. Naturally,

because she had no idea about the trending hot topic, she was baffled to hear Lily‘s name being

mentioned.
