Chapter 435 Old Flame âIf youâre in doubt about the ingredients she used, she can leave all the fragrances she personally made here. You can do whatever analysis you want. All seven Ingredients wouldnât cost more than 200 dollars in total anywayâIt wouldnât even be enough to buy feed for our cattle!â
Shane was feeling much more confident now. Not only did he translate what Pamela wanted to say, he even added his own wrath into his tone.
Pamela once again explained that the cost of her fragrance was very low, and that was enough to shut up all the foreign doubters!
âThe perfume made by contestant number sixteen is quite fresh and fragrant. Smelling it is enough to make me feel relaxed. Its smell and the method used to make it are both simple, and on top of that, the cost is very low. All of this fits the criteria of this competition. Itâs only natural for her to win the first place!â
The judges from within the country summarized in time.
Aiden bit his lip. The staff member that had given him the hand signal was also very nervous since he couldnât give him any clues. His inquisition had failed.
The competition was over!
Contestant number sixteen Pamela had won first place!
She was still wearing her overalls and a mask, and she went to receive the prize as everyone looked on. Despite being a warden for a mountain for so long, Pamela acted magnanimously. which could be seen from the way she moved and the way she looked at everyone.

All the netizens were curious as to what this graceful old lady looked like.
A seventyâyearâold grandmother was able to beat a foreign contestant on behalf of their country... That was so encouraging!
At that moment, the screen was filled with all kinds of messages about learning until oneâs old age.
Backstage.
Melanie had quickly changed before heading to the lounge belonging to contestant number sixteen. âItâs me!â
Someone quickly came and opened the door. Melanie looked at her, surprised. âPam!â
+15 BONOS âMelanielâ
The young woman in her early twenties yelled excitedly as she turned around and said, âMom! Itâs Melanielâ
Pamela had already changed as well and came to greet her.
She was wearing an aquaâcolored traditional dress. It managed to show just how pale her skin was compared to the time back on the mountains, where she had been wearing a leather robe. Despite her age, even the colors of her wrinkles looked harmonious. Her grace was beyond description!
When Melanie saw her, she couldnât help but be happy. âTo think that youâd be joining the competition... I couldnât have expected this at alllâ
Pamela tried to speak as she signed with her hands, upon which Pam said, âMom, I know what youâre trying to say. Let me explain: Mom didnât register for the competition herself. Someone came to the mountain and asked for her help a few days ago!â
âWho?â Melanie asked curiously.
âThis is the guy...â
Pam searched for her purse and got a name card out.
Melanie gave it a look. It was Elder Gibsonâs assistant!
âIn the beginning, he told us that this competition is a plot set up by a foreigner against the contestants from our country, and asked if my mom knew how to blend any fragrances. He even said that he knew you gave her a set of fragranceâblending equipment earlier. My mom refused him, saying that she didnât want to join the contest.â
âHowever, that man said that if you lost to a foreigner, itâll ruin your reputation and youâll get scolded by everyone. After that, Mom agreed to it!â
Pam was also very excited as she shook Melanieâs arm with a smile. âMelanie, youâre so impressive! Iâve asked my mom for many years, but she refused to even take a step out of the mountain!â
âThanks.â
Melanie was touched. She had countless words inside her heart that she wanted to say, but all she could manage in the end was a thank you.
Pamela gently smiled and shook her head.
âPamela... Is that your real name? Or did you remember something?â Melanie asked.
+15 BONOS Pam then replied on her motherâs behalf, âNo. That man said that she needed a name to register for the competition, but she didnât have one, so she gave herself one and even used my name as inspiration!â
Melanie said with a smile and said, âI donât even know what to call you. By age, I should call you grandmother. But... Pam calls you mom, and it makes things weird.â
After that, both Shane, Pam and even Pamela smiled. After pausing, Pamela said something and Pam translated it for her. âMy mom said that you can call her Pamela.â
âThank you, Pamela,â Melanie thanked her sincerely again.
Pamela held her hand with a gentle smile and pointed at the trophy on the table, saying something. Shane then explained, âMy mom said that she did manage to bring a championâs trophy back home, so itâs not a loss.â
Melanie knew that Pamela was worried that she would feel pressured, which was why she said. that. She had lived a life that cared little for reputation, so she wouldnât care whether or not she was acknowledged by the world.
Melanie gave back the name card back to Pam. Suddenly, she remembered something, and her eyes opened wide.
If the person that asked for Pamelaâs help really was Elder Gibsonâs assistant, then... The old flame that Elder Gibson couldnât continue with any longer... Could she be... Pamela?
