Chapter 187
Chapter 187 Nathaniel was overjoyed. He held the debit card with one of his hands and Melanie’s hand
with the other. “Mel, we can finally get married!”
Melanie glanced at the card and coldly shrugged his hand off her. “Really?”
“Look. This card is a gift from my mom, meaning she has already approved you as her daughter–in–
law. I know what she said earlier made you upset, but don‘t overthink them because she meant nothing
ill. She just wants the best for me, that‘s all.”
“I‘m sure she wants that. She even chose a wife for you. However, I am not the woman she thinks is
qualified to be her daughter–in–law.” Melanie was mad upon thinking of what Nathaniel‘s mother had
said earlier.
‘She kept talking about Lily when I was the one who sat in front of her! I am the woman who will marry
her son, not Lily!‘
Melanie could tell that Nathaniel‘s mother looked down on her, making her uncomfortable.
“You‘re upset again, aren‘t you? I told you my mom didn‘t mean what she said. It doesn‘t matter how
much she likes Lily because the most important thing is I don‘t like her. What can my mom do about
that? I am the one getting married, so her opinions will only remain as opinions and not a deciding
factor. Her words can‘t change anything!” Nathaniel coaxed Melanie patiently because he knew she felt
aggrieved due to this matter.
“Really?” Melanie turned to look at him and said, “What if you change your mind?”
“Why would I do that? After all these years, don‘t you know what I truly want? I have always loved you
and you only! We‘ll have a kid soon, so I would never change my mind!”
He held her hand and placed the card on her palm to make her feel at ease. “In the future, you will be
in charge of our family‘s finances. I will be under your control too. You can make the call for everything,
okay?”
Melanie looked at the card in her hand, then at his sincere gaze again before nodding in satisfaction.
“That depends on how you act!”
After sending Melanie home, Nathaniel headed right to the lab. They were already at the final stages of
the development of the new product, and they had to be careful to stop anything from going wrong. As
Melanie said, Nathaniel placed his hopes on these two new products to bring back awards and
recognition for the company.
Over the past few weeks, they recruited a few perfumers and researchers to work on the new products.
Although they were not at the top of their fields, they were at least professionals. Even if they could not
create anything unique, creating a few basic items would be no problem.
Everyone was working on their task at hand. Nathaniel looked around, and since the project‘s progress
was satisfactory, he made no comments. He just encouraged his team members to work harder during
this period. Once the products succeeded in the market, everyone would
get a raise in pay.
After walking around, he realized that someone was absent again. He called the person in charge of
the lab over. “Where’s Olivia? Did she apply for leave again? Or is she playing hooky

at work?” ‘This stupid b*tch was only obedient for a few days. What is she up to again now?‘ “Mr. Hall,
that‘s not it. She said she resigned from work,” the person in charge said softly. He thought Nathaniel
knew about the matter.
“Resigned?” Nathaniel raised luis voice “When did she resign? Who approved her resignation? I didn‘t
accept her resignation letter! I disapproved of her resignation! Call her now! Call her and ask her to
come here this instant! She‘s going overboard!” He stood, arms akimbo, as he ordered fiercely
The person in charge made a call with mindful movements before he said, “The call isn‘t going
through.”
