Chapter 152
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
âI donât know.â
Jenny changed her question, âHmm. Do you know what scent you want?â
âI canât describe it.â Although Lilyâs answers were unreliable, Jenny could probably understand them.
Nonetheless, this was something she could not help Lily with.
The car from the base arrived not long after. However, it was not the young man who picked them up initially. The person who arrived was more enthusiastic, âAre you tired? I didnât expect you to go so far out and for so long. Generally, those who come here usually stay for an hour at most.
âWe have all the best samples. We pick and ship out flowers on the same day, and we even update the samples daily, so you donât have to worry about the flowers not being fresh, affecting your judgment.
You can just tell us what youâre looking for,â the driver enthusiastically spoke while driving. Lily quietly looked at the flowers by the nursery. The natural fragrances filled the air as several scents mixed. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Lily could tell what each flower was, but still, they were not what she wanted.
âYou have such a big nursery. Is it difficult to take care of it? You must need a lot of staffing, huh?â
Jenny asked.
âYes, itâs difficult, but itâs our job, and Iâm pleased to see the beautiful flowers grow under my care,â He said smilingly, âWe do need a lot of staffing, but weâre still understaffed. You see, my brother is picking up guests, so I have to pick you up, and when you arrive, I have to prepare deworming solutions.â âIâm sorry to trouble you,â Lily said. âHey, thereâs no trouble since itâs my job. You are our visitors, after all.â
The man had a charming personality and was always starting conversations. âHow many visitors do you get daily?â
âWe have plenty of visitors during peak seasons, but itâs been fine lately. Wasnât there a perfume sampling session in the past couple of days? Maybe thatâs why there are more people now. You two were the earliest today, but more will come in the afternoon.â The trio arrived at the base as they talked.
The man pointed inside the hall and said, âYou two go ahead and rest. I wonât go in since I need to go to the shed first.â
âOkay, weâll go in by ourselves.â Lily readily agreed.
âA lot of people will come to look for materials soon, so we need to quickly order the goods in advance when theyâre still available,â Jenny said as she walked into the hall with Lily.
Lily did not care too much since she knew not everyone looked for the same materials, and it was all about finding the right ones.
âIâm dying of thirst and want some iced water, but I donât know if they have any,â Jenny said.
Lily was about to reach for the door and push it open when someone opened it from the inside. âLily?!â
Melanie caught a glimpse of Lily, and her eyes widened. Melanie never thought she would bump into Lily again. âWhat kind of bullsh*t fate is this?!â Jenny remembered this audacious woman from the past two days, and the look in her eyes was not friendly. of course, Melanie did not care that Jenny was there. After all, her whole attention was on Lily. She sized Lily up and saw her sweaty face, saying disdainfully, âWhat are you doing here?!â
