Although they were marketed as something new, the original formulas were unchanged. At most, they
adjusted the ratio. They were nothing new, which was disappointing as she thought there would be
some unexpected discovery. It was a matter of luck.
“If it‘s so easy to discover something, then everyone could easily be a top perfumer.” Alexander
grabbed her and took her into his arms. “Have you eaten?” “I have,” Lily replied. When she saw the
look in his eyes, she hurriedly explained, “I didn‘t go into the kitchen. I got off work early today and ate
out.”
“Why didn‘t you wait for me?” He narrowed his eyes and asked with a sad tone.
“1–I was hungry earlier.” It was a small matter, but it felt like she had made a mistake. Lily glanced at
him and tried to take out her phone to order. “You haven‘t eaten? How about ordering takeout?”
“I don‘t want takeout. Go out to dinner with me!”
“I‘ve already eaten!”
“Then, you can accompany me while I eat!” Alexander said with a smug smile. Lily went ahead to
dinner with him because she could not refuse.
Before leaving for the restaurant, Lily thought she would just watch him eat as she had already eaten.
Still, the food smelled good, so it tempted her. She ate her third plate of wagyu steak without stopping
as the food was delicious.
Alexander slowly sipped his wine and ate his food refinedly while watching her feast. He appeared
more like the person who had already eaten and was just accompanying her.
“Do you want to add another plate?” He asked thoughtfully.
“No, no more! I can‘t eat anymore. I‘ll die if I take another bite!” Lily exhaled and waved her hand.
“How about some yogurt to help digestion?” Alexander raised his eyebrows and asked, being‘ nice.‘
“Have I done something to offend you? You could‘ve told me straight. Why‘d you need such a cruel
method to kill me?” Lily held her stomach with one hand and felt it bulging. She had overeaten today.
“If I remember correctly, I merely asked you to accompany me while I eat. A certain someone couldn‘t
control their mouth, and that is my fault?” Alexander asked as he put down his fork.
It was true that she was the one who could not control herself. Still, if he had not brought her to the new
restaurant, she would not have been lured by the aroma and eaten so much. She was sure of this, so
she replied, “Of course. It‘s your fault!” Alexander nodded at her and said thoughtfully, “I see. Is it also
my fault that you‘re going on a business trip without telling me?” “Of course…”Lily stuttered at her
words and stared at him, “How did you know?”
