Chapter 58

For a while, Julian was too preoccupied with matters related to essential oils to pay attention to how the lawsuit was going. Meanwhile, Seraphina had started her new work schedule.

In contrast to the raging chaos earlier, the lawsuit was quietly withdrawn by Prosperian Company. The passers-by had been interested in waiting for its outcome and were disappointed that this case ended so suddenly.

There were controversies. Some said that Prosperian Company was at fault, so it withdrew its lawsuit.

Others said that Prosperian Company was generous and let o. Faced with many doubts, Seraphina posted on her Twitter: [Things will clear up. I don’t care to explain.]

Her simple statements brought her a lot of followers for no reason.

Seraphina was unconcerned about the havoc that was going on online. After all, she wasn’t a celebrity in the entertainment industry. Now she concentrated on creating new products.

“Seraphina, is everything OK with your family these days? Mia called Seraphina to her office and asked directly early in the morning.

“Yes, everything is fine. Seraphina was stunned for a moment, not understanding why. Mia suddenly inquired about her family.

Mia nodded and said, “That’s nice to hear. If something happens at home, take care of it soon. I’ll take you on a business trip.”

“Business trip? Where to?” Seraphina had only recently joined them, and she didn’t expect to take a business trip so fast.

“Kweaville,” Mia reached for an invitation and said. “There will be a perfumery conference over there.

The distinct geographic environment contributes to the availability of natural spices. Some of them can be gathered to serve as samples.”

Seraphina didn’t agree at once.

She wanted to go but had to tell Dashiell she would need to be gone for a few days.

“Seraphina? Seraphina?” Mia called her several times because Seraphina didn’t respond. “Are you all right? Don’t you want to go?

“Yes, I do,” said Seraphina, shaking her head. “Of course, I don’t want to pass up such a wonderful opportunity. I am simply a newcomer. Don’t you worry that I would squander such a wonderful opportunity and perform badly?”

07E1 Thu 1 Feb Mia replied. “It’s just a conference. What can go wrong? I can see you have talent. Of course, experiences are important in our industry, but talent is also very crucial. Not everyone can make a living in this industry.”

Mia was telling the truth. In the project department, there were many employees, but few of them were outstanding, only Seraphina truly qualified as a perfumer.

Not everyone in the nation, or perhaps the planet, was cut out for this kind of work.

But Seraphina was different! She was competent and gified. Even though Mia didn’t initially like Seraphina and assumed that she must have joined the company via a social link, these tests made Mia believe in Seraphina’s abilities.

Seraphina said, “Thank you for your compliment. Ms. Lawson.”

Mia rolled her eyes at Seraphina and said. “Don’t mention it. We’ll go there for business matters. We will leave the day after tomorrow, so please get ready for the following two days.”

“OK!” Seraphina initially wanted to say that was so hasty, but things like this were always scheduled.

As she had to prepare for the business trip. Seraphina left the office early and went home.

It was quiet when she arrived home because Dashiell hadn’t returned yet.

She put on comfortable slippers, turned on calming music on the stereo, and made at pot of coffee, enjoying the moment.

She had never disclosed to Dashiell that she preferred quietness to the noise of crowds. She had assumed he must have many serv ants serving him and that people were visiting him, but it turned out that he preferred a quiet life.

He didn’t want anyone serving him other than hiring someone to clean now and again. He cooked all by himself, and the house was incredibly silent. It was a little lonely, but she enjoyed the state of being unbothered.

The coffee was slowly brewing. Beside it were a few snacks on the delicate plate. Dashiell didn’t allow her to enter the kitchen, so she had to give up cooking and sit quietly.

There were around eight different recently released bottles of perfume on the coffee table in front of her.

After grabbing a glass of water, some napkins, and peppermint, Seraphina sat down quietly.

07:51 Thu, 1 Feb HG Perhaps as a result of her recent skirmish with Julian and other people, she was finding it difficult to calm down, leaving her without desire or inspiration for new products.

This could not go on. She would feel emptier the longer she avoided it. She would no Jon have her original foundation if she didn’t better herself.

Seraphina would take advantage of Mia’s offer of a business trip to go have a look. It might inspire fresh creative ideas.

She opened her eyes slowly and noticed how adorable the little bottles in front of her were. She casually picked up a pink one, and before she even opened the lid, she could smell the overwhelming fragrance. It was intense, almost pungent.

Instantly, she lost the desire to open it and put it down.

These were not well-known brands of perfumes sold in small shops. However, a brand didn’t have to be well-known to be inspirational. Often, some unknown brands could be unexpectedly helpful.

She withdrew her hand. After carefully washing and wiping her fingers to remove the perfume smell, she sat down once more and picked up another bottle.

She took a little notebook with her and jotted down her observations and the ingredients contained. It was busy and really rewarding.

Before even entering the door, Dashiell was turned off by a potent stench as he arrived home. He stepped back and stood outside the door, sneezing several times.

“You’re home!” Seraphina exclaimed, rushing toward him with open arms after trying on the perfume.

Her posture gave the impression that she wanted a hug.

He was about to respond, but then his nose twitched violently, and he started sneezing repeatedly as she got closer.

Upon seeing this, Seraphina halted at this sight, dropped her head to sniff herself, and asked, “Did it cause you to sneeze?”

“I’m going to wash my hands!” Then she turned around and ran inside.

Dashiell lingered at the doorway for a while before going inside. He noticed she’d cleaned her hands and wrapped those tiny bottles with tissues. After that, she tossed them into the trash can and tied up the bag.

“Were you doing experiments at home?” As he asked, Dashiell opened the window casually to dissipate the smell.

“It’s not an experiment. I just want to find out more about the newest products available. and see what I can learn from them.” She waved her hand to hasten the evaporation of 07:51 Thu, 1 Feb H&

the odor.

“So, did you get anything?” Dashiell felt as though he was about to have a cold as he cleaned his nose with a tissue.

“It’s nothing new. They just change packages.” With a shrug, she conveyed disappointment.
