Chapter 147
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
Lily smiled nonchalantly. âSo, who is it from La Beauté Group then?â
Jenny sighed. âWhat do you mean by who? Itâs all just a misunderstanding. Iâm not sure why Mr. Will insists on keeping you here, but I know itâs not merely because of your connections or luck since you have the potential to be a great perfumer.â This was the greatest affirmation for Lily. âThanks. Iâm glad you think so.â
âHey, stop flattering me! Didnât you say you wanted to sleep? Go ahead, but donât sleep for too long,â
Jenny looked at her watch and continued, âWe need to arrive at the site earlier.â
âThe site?â Lily repeated but quickly understood what Jenny meant. Middle Valley was a suitable climate for flowers and plants to grow. Hence, there were many parterres, including for the grafting of new breeds at considerable amounts. After all, it benefited perfumers to search for fragrances from natural resources. Each plant was a treasure with its own Godâgiven uniqueness. After some refinery, purification, and fabrication of the plants, along with using other fragrances, a perfumer will finally produce different scented perfumes.
âIâm not sleepy anymore. Letâs make a move now.â Lily looked at the time and said, âIâll shower and get changed now. We can leave right after that.â âArenât you tired?â Jenny asked while she watched Lily walk to the bathroom.
âItâs fine. I managed to catch some sleep earlier too.â After saying that, Lily realized her choice of words was inappropriate, and sure enough, Jenny gave her a profound look when she turned to look at Jenny.
âWhatever. The more I explain, the more suspicious Jen would be. I might as well say nothing.â
Soon, Lily came out of the shower. Jenny had already packed up and was now waiting for her.â Letâs head downstairs and have something for breakfast. This hotel prepares buffetâstyle bÈeakfast for their guests, and the food should be ready now.â Just when they were about to leave, the doorbell rang.
âWho is it?â Jenny asked as she was closer to the door but made no move to open it.
âRoom service. My apologies for disturbing you, maâam. I have brought breakfast for you.â The polÃte voice of a waiter sounded from outside the door.
Jenny turned back to look at Lily before opening the door in confusion, and sure enough, the sight of a waiter and his dining cart greeted her. âGood morning. Iâm here to serve you breakfast.â
âThe hotel serves breakfast buffetâstyle, doesnât it? Will this require any additional charges?â Jenny asked as she had to make claims for their expenses during the business trip upon returning to the office.
âYour room rate is inclusive of this service. As for the buffet, you may visit our restaurant,â the waiter said while placing the food on the table. After he laid the cutleries, he said, âI hope you have a good meal!â The variety of food that filled the table stunned Jenny. âWhy would I visit the restaurant for the buffet when I have this? Iâm sure what we have now is much better than what they serve downstairs.
Not only did they serve us a wide variety of food, but they also gave us a huge portion! How will the two of us even finish this?â
âThis hotel provides exceptional service! I must remember this place and book a room here again next time,â Jenny exclaimed as she took a seat, not forgetting to wave at Lily, who stood by her side. âWhy are you still standing around? Take a seat and dig in!â
Then she blabbered, looking extremely satisfied with the trip, âLet me tell you something. Iâve never gotten such treatment during any business trips Iâve gone on, and you must know I go on many business trips. This hotel is great, and our company gives us full support in our work too. Thatâs why we must do well! This trip would be worth it if we could get any inspiration or learn something new.â
Lily knew that someone must have made some arrangements again for them to have breakfast in the room.
