Chapter 63
After dinner, Lily got up to clear the dishes, but Alexander pulled her again. “I told you to stay put.” He frowned disapprovingly. “I forbid you from entering the kitchen again. You aren‘t allowed to go in.”
Lily felt helpless, “I used to cook by myself, so...”

Soon, the sound of rushing water echoed as Lily walked over and leaned against the kitchen door frto look at Alexander with his sleeves rolled up high, revealing his lean arms. His skin was particularly fair, but not like an unhealthy person‘s. He looked strong and manly. Lily thought of Alexander‘s hands tightly wrapping around her waist, and her body trembled instinctively.
“Are you going to respond?” Alexander asked while washing the dishes. Lily was stunned as she did not fully catch what he said. “Huh? What?”
“About those boring things on Twitter,” Alexander turned and glanced at Lily as he spoke.
After sthought, Lily nodded. “Of course!” Although the things on Twitter were nonsense, they still affected her reputation. Furthermore, she was not alone and would never want Alexander to feel ashamed of her.
“What are you going to do? Are you going to clarify what happened?” Alexander continued to ask.
Lily shook her head, “There’s nothing to clarify about the situation. It‘ll keep snowballing if I argue with them and fall into their hands.”
At that time, the public thought Lily was embarrassed because of the truth. Maybe a small number of people would believe her, but so what? Whether it be tor reputation, all would be damaged. How could she stay in the new company? What would her colleagues think of her?
As for Nathaniel and Melanie, they only needed to spend money on others to fix the situation. They did not need to confront Lily head–on. Lily could not afford to make matters worse regarding the shameless couple, nor did she want to.

Then he walked toward Lily. “There‘s no need,” Lily saw Alexander opening his arms toward her and took the initiative to stretch out hers. She hugged him, looked up at him, and said, “If I can‘t handle this challenge, what qualifications do I have to be Mr. Russel‘s wife?”
Alexander smiled, lowered his head, and softly kissed Lily‘s forehead, “You‘re the only one in the world qualified to be my wife.” Whether or not he was coaxing her, Lily accepted it as a helpful complement.
In retum, Lily tiptoed and kissed Alexander on his lips. Initially, it was just a small reward, but obviously, Alexander was not satisfied with just a simple kiss. He clasped the back of Lily‘s head with one hand, deepened his gaze, and claimed a bigger reward for himself.
Meanwhile, Nathaniel had just finished a meeting in MN Inc‘s president‘s office. He was on his way back to his office when he saw Lucas already waiting outside. “How are things going?” Nathaniel asked while proudly adjusting his tie. He could not conceal his smile as if he had already won.
“Ms. Christian said she‘ll see you in court.”
Nathaniel reached out to grab his coffee on the table and was stunned for a moment. He felt as though something had pierced his hand. Nathaniel looked at Lucas as if he could not hear clearly. “What did you just say?”
“Ms. Christian rejected the private suggestion and insisted on seeing you in court.” “Does she honestly think she can win? Does she have any new evidence?” Nathaniel felt very puzzled as he squinted.
