Chapter 636
All these years of knowing Lily, Nathaniel had thought that she was a weakling, but she turned. out to
be skilled in kickboxing. Back then, all he had brought with him were bodyguards and thugs, who were
no match for Lily’s training.
She had long since abandoned the Lodge household and had not returned for several years. Even
though they had been together for a long time, he never once saw her train in kickboxing. Thus, he
reasoned that she, a woman, would not be able to do much regardless of her current skill level.
With Alexander and La Beauté Group on her side, Lily could do everything she wanted. With. control of
the Tanner Corporation, Nathaniel may make a comeback using the company’s resources. He hoped
Lily would feel terrible about her past actions and break down in his
presence.
While he was in a trance, Arianna also became lost in her thoughts.
‘Nate is right. Although the Lodge family had been a kickboxing family for decades and outsiders still
fear them at the mention of their name, it had been over a century since the golden age of the family.‘
The rumor mill started pumping out stories that everyone believed were true, but no one could be sure.
Just how potent were they now? In appearance, Arianna Tanner herself seemed to be the pampered
daughter of the wealthy Tanner family, but only she was aware of her troubles.
She also needed to watch out for Alexander around the house at all times…
Arianna glanced at the window. Since the blinds were down, she had no idea what was happening on
the other side of the wall. She was nevertheless aware of how others saw the issue.
The Tanner family were known to practice gender bias, favoring the male heirs. Her uncle Derrick, the
eldest son of the generation before her, was a useless waste of space, but the family still had high
hopes for him. As for her father, he openly welcomed his illegitimate son into the household and even
got him a job at the company to assert his dominance in the family.
Arianna will always be another unimportant person to them, no matter how much she accomplished or
how well she performed. Neither the company’s success nor the family’s influence was in any way
attributable to her.
That was why she was so determined to get a place in Tanner Corporation. She wanted to make all the
men in the Tanner family regret ever underestimating her!
The pair of siblings were lost in their thoughts, making the room sink into eerie silence for a
moment.
“You can’t go in. Mr. Damian, you can’t…”
The hurried voice of the secretary sounded from outside the door, and soon after, the door was pushed
open.
“Mr. Hall and Ms. Tanner, I’m sorry. Mr. Damian insists…” The secretary apologized quickly

with a helpless look. Stopping Damian from entering the room was tough for an ordinary. employee
with no authority.
Arianna looked up at the person standing by the door. In an irritated huff, the young man with a
handsome face shoved the secretary standing in his way. When he entered the room, called out, “Ari,
my dear sister, you’re here! I’ve been looking for you all over!”

Damian may have called Arianna his “beloved sister,” but he did not seem the least bit respectful.
