“Even if the birthday gift is here, | still haven't figured out how to send it to him.” Lily sighed as she rubbed her temples. Even thinking about it bothered her. “Aren't you going to go back?” Alexander asked. It did not seem like she was planning to personally send the gift over from what she said.

Or is it something else? What about your parents?” Alexander had never heard Lily mention her parents before. Back when he looked into her background, he did not find any information on them either.

“Well, whatever the case is, if you don't feel like going, I'll get someone to send our gifts together. That way, we'd let people know about our relationship. However, I'll accompany you there if you want to go!” As he tightened his grip around her hand, he said, “I'll always be with you, no matter what you're going through.” There was nothing Lily could be afraid of after hearing these words. So, she leaned over and pecked him on the cheek. “I'm so lucky to have you.” “That can't be it!” Alexander turned to her with a smile and pressed his lips to hers.
After being on guard the whole day, Nathaniel finally felt at ease.
Lily had not responded the whole day, and the public's opinion on the Intewas slowly improving. Even the rate of product returns had reduced. He repackaged the old product and rebranded it along the thof “a timeless piece.” Nathaniel had already begun to promote it, and once the company officially launched the product in the upcoming week, he could foresee it being well-received and profitable.
