Chapter 535
The duo went shopping for the day and bought many things. They had bought a gift for each elder of
the Russell family except for Mrs. Russell. Brittany was good at pleasing people, especially pleasing
the elders. When they were about to leave, they passed by the fragrance counter. Brittany stopped
while her eyes stayed on the dazzling perfumes.
After some time, Arianna realized Brittany did not follow. When she turned around, she saw Brittany
standing in front of the counter in a daze.
“What? You want to buy perfume?” Back at her side, Arianna chose with her.
The service assistant at the counter immediately greeted them enthusiastically. “What kind of perfume
do you ladies prefer? We have different types here, so you can try them out if there are any you‘re
interested in.”
The service assistant picked up a bottle of perfume and recommended while talking, “For example, this
is our latest product released this month, and the scent is mainly sweet...”
As the service assistant spoke, Arianna tried a few samples as she was interested. Then she decided
on two products. However, Brittany hesitated and did not seem to make up her mind.
“What‘s the matter, you don‘t like any of these?” Arianna asked.
Brittany shook her head as hier brows furrowed. “That doesn‘t seem to be it.”
“Doesn‘t seem to be what?”
“Miss, what type of fragrance are you looking for? Or do you know the base note, or more precisely,
what brand or series? I can help you find it,” the service assistant said quickly.
Looking at her, Brittany shook her head again and dragged Arianna forward. When she passed the
fragrance counters of other brands, she stopped and continued to search. After searching several
times, she could not sind what she was looking for.
That look of disappointment intensely aroused Arianna‘s curiosity. “What are you looking for?
“I don‘t know what I‘m looking for. I just remember that smell, but it doesn‘t seem to be any of these
perfumes,” Brittany said hesitantly.
“Where did you smell it?” Since it was a smell she remembered, she inust have remembered where
she smelled it.
Brittany did not speak a word, making Arianna even more curious. “Don‘t you remember?”
“It‘s not that...” Brittany hesitated as it seemed hard to say, “It was...from that woman.”
Her words confused Arianna. She did not know who Brittany was talking about at first.
“That woman...” After a pause, Arianna suddenly realized, “The woman you said Alexander is about to
marry?”
Brittany‘s eyes dimmed as she lowered her head and nodded. “My God! Have you been looking for that
woman‘s perfuine this whole time? What are you
thinking?” Gently poking Brittany‘s forehead with her finger, Arianna felt exasperated as she could not
do anything. “Do you think you can win Alexander‘s heart back if you use the same perfume as hers?”
Her direct words were not mean but sharp. Brittany did think of doing that. Now Brittany felt like she
was a drowning woman clutching at a straw. When she passed the fragrance counter, she thought
about the faint smell of perfume on Lily that day. It had a pleasant smell. The light fragrance stayed on
the tip of her nose and did not dissipate for a long time. Since the day she ran out of Alexander‘s
house, she rubbed her nose hard, trying to wipe off the smell.
Only then slie realized that Alexander might be attracted to Lily because of this smell, and he was
deeply fascinated by her. However, after searching for a long time at the fragrance counter, Brittany still
could not find it, making her feel quite disappointed.
