His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)
Chapter 433

Chapter 433

However, his dreams were about to come crashing down. Nathaniel had never imagined that instead of being greeted by a doubling in sales or profit, he would get shot down, bullet after bullet.

At 9:00 AM, a famous verified account posted three videos. The first video was nothing serious. It was a financial interview that Nathaniel did a long time ago. In the video, he proudly talked about his perfume with his head held high. He told the host about his optimistic view on the prospects of the perfume industry and lamented the lack of top-tier perfumers in this country. He also emphasized developing and researching new products, stating that perfumers could discuss with him whenever they have a new idea.

Nathaniel mentioned that if the perfumers were keen to proceed with their fragrance, he would personally supervise the development and preparation of the perfume throughout the entire process. Before he ended, he also brought up the difficulty of being a perfumer in this time and space.

The second video was a press conference held by MN Inc. when Lily was about to leave the company. In the video, when Lily refused to apologize, someone caught the slight panic in Nathaniel's eyes, alongside Melanie's slight gestures and repeated eye contact on camera. The footage also included the embarrassing aftermath of the situation. It seemed like the video was shot with an excellent camera, as all the details were precise.

Lastly, the third video was a humiliating clip of authorities escorting Nathaniel from a lobby with a bouquet of 99 roses in his arms. At the end of the video, the account attached his apology letter, with some words circled in red.

They were along the lines of how Nathaniel had been wholly ignorant and deceived, how he was preoccupied with the company and its business that he did not have time to oversee the production. He mentioned that everything was under Melanie's control and that she had betrayed his trust.

The account that posted the three videos did not write anything. The lack of a statement was a statement in itself, allowing the world to judge the critical points of the videos by themselves.

It seemed to be telling the world, "Look. I've highlighted the key parts for you. I didn't say anything. It's all Nathaniel."

That was the last straw for him. Besides a perfunctory sentence, "The Internet will always remember," no words were attached to the videos."

Nathaniel was in shambles. Even if the Internet remembered, he didn't.

He had forgotten about what he had said so many years ago. How could Nathaniel remember what he said, bragged about, and what lies he told during the countless interviews he accepted? Whoever did this was patient. They waited for the dust to settle and compared the current situation with the past. It was a slap in the face for Nathaniel.

He mentioned in an interview how he would personally supervise the production process, only to say that he played no part in it and was entirely in the dark about everything. That itself was self-contradictory. Even if his latter statement were false, he would have already lost the public's trust.

Besides that, compared to the balloons he had released at Rebirth, his expression and exchanges with Melanie at the press conference were clearly of a new love, old flame kind of situation. Regardless, he was still a sc*mbag in any of the situations.

At this point, Nathaniel was fuming with annoyance. He had no idea how to fight back. Just as he was about to sue for defamation, another bullet shot him.

At 10:30 am, certificates, prizes, and trophies of the International Perfumery Competition got uploaded onto Rebirth's official website. There was a sense of jubilation as congratulatory messages constantly flowed in.

It seemed like the whole industry celebrated with Lily's name appearing more than a few times. She was the glory of perfumers across Hyderland.

For years, none of the perfumers from Hyderland managed to make a name for themselves. Every time any one of them went abroad, they would be ridiculed and despised by people. However, this time, Lily won first place on the international scene.

Although most of the competitors were new, it allowed her to showcase her capabilities. Information about how Lily refused Wesley's offer to join his company also spread, despite his optimism about Lily's growth with him.

Lily's name resounded among the perfumers like the echo of thunder.

Although this whole commotion was initially not a direct attack on Nathaniel, the fact that he had just been slandered more than an hour ago boosted Lily's achievements and proved she was indeed powerful. Not only was she outstanding in Hyderland, but she also managed to make a name for herself abroad. How would this look on a lousy perfumer like Melanie?
