Not long after, Arianna's office door opened again, but this time, Nathaniel walked in.
As soon as he entered the door and noticed the two glasses on the table, he smiled.
"Did your little brother come to complain again?"
"If he doesn't show up one day, I'd think he's dead!"
After a pause, she glanced at him.
"Or you're dead."
Nathaniel broke out into an indifferent laugh.
"There's no way he'll be dead.Your grandpa treasures him too much.He'd have a hundred men
protecting him.It's even less likely if I died."
Arianna cut to the chase and said thoughtfully, "Haven't you heard the devil lives the longest? All right,
enough.Let's get down to business.I've agreed to let him carry out his ideas and get the world's top
perfumers.He can do whatever he wants."
"Aren’t you afraid Damian might invite a renowned perfumer who creates an amazing perfume and
then manages to make a name for himself? He might achieve something and steal your limelight,"
Nathaniel taunted as he sat across Arianna.He crossed his legs, pulled out a pack of cigarettes, and lit
a stick.
Arianna did not stop him and casually answered, "With you here, why do I have to worry about that? I
told him we had a limited budget.If we take the money out of the picture, which top perfumer is so easy
to hire? You should know this more than I do.
"Damian wants to find a friend to help create a connection.There are more fake perfumers than there
are real ones.What's the name of the perfumer that you've worked with before? Frank, was it? Wasn't
he a supposed famous perfumer as well? It was only later in Westwood did we find out..."
She did not have to continue when she noticed Nathaniel's face change.
"Anyway, I believe you can handle this.The higher Damian climbs, the greater the fall," Arianna said,
squinting at Nathaniel.
She did not feel like that brat brother of hers was a threat at all.
However, she did not act on it for her family's superficial harmony.
Since she knew her boundaries, Nathaniel did not bother about it any longer.
Instead, he took a drag from his cigarette and propped his hand on the table.
"You shouldn't be worrying about this.As for the matters in Sapphine, what will you do about that?"
"Shouldn't I ask you your thoughts on that?"
Arianna turned on her computer and turned the monitor around to him.
The page on the screen was a report on the Lodge family.
"Your ex-girlfriend is something else.She involved the police!"
"That's just like her," he sighed.
Nathaniel continued to stare at the screen before saying, ''Once she decides to take action, she'll be
ruthless."
Lily went all out back then, insisting on getting to the end of things with Nathaniel at his expense, not
giving up even when they went to court.She even had backup plans, so this made him fear her
subconsciously in the days that followed.
The panic and disbelief Nathaniel felt when he discovered that the woman he thought was wrapped
around his finger was not under his control and might even trample him was unforgettable!
"I don't care if that's her style or not.All I want to know is what's your next move."
Arianna drummed her finger on the monitor and continued, "I think it'll be difficult for Henry to win this
power grab.If he loses, our efforts will be in vain."
They initially thought Henry might be of help to them.
The two did not expect him to end up being a black sheep.
They had already given him the upper hand, yet Lily managed to capsize the boat.
Nathaniel found it strange to hear about how Lily had recorded his meeting with Henry.
How could it be filmed? However, the person present at that time was from the Lodge family.
Not much news spread, so Nathaniel was in the dark about this.
