Just as Lily was about to speak, Alexander stepped forward to stand before her, "Mr.Richards, if you
have any questions, La Beauté Group’s legal department will contact you.
Still, as far as I know, the Perfumers’ Society does not have that power yet."
After speaking, he stopped Lily directly, turned around, and left backstage.
Noah wanted to catch up, but the La Beauté Group staff stopped him, "Mr.Richards, please stay."
Raising his eyebrows, Noah did not follow up but stood there looking at their backs, smiling
meaningfully.
"I didn't expect the Perfumers' Society to send him here."
Lily sighed, rather emotional.
She was already mentally prepared to receive a phone call, but it came earlier than expected.She also
did not expect Noah to attend the press conference.
What he said just now was to embarrass her on purpose and to make things difficult for her.
Those who came uninvited were usually up to no good.
"The result will be the same regardless of who comes!"
Alexander firmly said while massaging Lily’s shoulders, Don't worry, the Richards family's sphere of
influence is in the city's capital.We're in Brown City, so it’s quite a distance away.
Both of our families are friends, and Noah won’t be able to destroy the friendship.
He thought Lily was worried that the intervention of the Richards family would complicate things, so he
comforted her, "This matter is probably just Noah's intention, without his family’s participation."
"I'm not worried about his family,"
Lily laughed and shook her head, "I'm also not afraid of their investigation! Besides, the perfumer
certificate is just a piece of paper, and the National Fragrance Association formulated it as an
assessment system. It doesn’t mean anything."
There were only a few worldwide professional- grade assessments for perfumers.She took the
assessment for the junior level.
As for the intermediate and senior levels, she did not need to continue after taking them twice.She felt it
was more important to prove her capability through what she created rather than a formalized exam.
With that available time, it made more sense for her to research, work on new product developments,
and learn about new fragrances.
However, she did not expect that one day, the certificate would get her into trouble.
"Well, I’m glad you think so!"
Alexander’s fingers slid down and pinched Lily’s waist.
Lily blushed and struggled slightly, "There are people around!"
It would be so embarrassing if someone saw them doing something intimate.
"Huh?"
Alexander responded and kept pinching Lily's waist a few more times.
Then he frowned and said, "Your clothes are all wet."
Lily realized that her clothes were soaked with sweat.It was because she ran there and was too tired to
say anything.
Her clothes were soaked, and she did not have time to change out of them, so she left them on.She
had to deal with all kinds of problems while talking on stage.She was in a state of high concentration
and tension, so she ignored her wet clothes.
Since Alexander had brought it up, she realized her clothes were still wet and were sticking to her body,
causing chills.
"Let’s go home first.Take a shower and change your clothes,"
Alexander removed his jacket and put it on Lily.
Then he hugged her tightly again.
The car ride went smoothly back to Imperial Hills.It had only been a month since she left, but it seemed
like she had been away for years.
The house was spotless.
Even if no one lived there for a while, someone would come and clean it regularly.
When the lights came on, there was a warm feeling of home.
