Chapter 484: Her Own Mistake
Chapter 484: Her Own Mistake
"That's fine. I haven't really helped you much. Ms. Lily, I'm leaving now."
"Alright, goodbye."
After Amanda gets a taxi by the road, Lily gets into Ella's car.
Lily turns on her phone and asks Ella who just gets on the car, "What did you find out about that
perfume?"
"Mr. Harper has really found something." Ella answers Lily while driving Lily towards the company, "The
perfume that the Egret Company released last month is not their perfumer's production."
As Lily hears that, her face lights up, "Did the perfumer buy it from someone else?"
" ... Not exactly."
"No?" Lily freezes for a while, "If their perfumer did not make it himself or buy it from someone else,
then how did he produce that perfume?"
Ella tells Lily everything that Jasper has found out.
Jasper contacts one of the HS Company's employees whose surname is Hebden, and tells her that
she has violated the company's confidentiality agreement by taking their company's perfume to their
rival company without permission. But he also says that he won't fire her and will give her a chance.
The employee whose surname is Hebden does not want a bad record on her file, so she asks her
sister who works for the Egret Company for help. Her sister happens to be in the Product Department.
She becomes friends with the perfumer by trying to cotton up with him.
Because of the news in the past few days, the sales of the Egret Company's new perfume has risen,
and the perfumer has also become much more famous. He gets light-headed and has drunk too much
at the company's party the day before yesterday, so Hebden's sister succeeds in making him admit
what he has done.
The perfumer says that he has received a package last month. There is a bottle of perfume sample
inside it, and he doesn't know who sent it. Since he feels that the fragrance is unique, and his superiors
have given him a lot of pressure, he just copies the perfume.
After the product is released, he is worried that it is a trap at the beginning, but nothing has happened
in the end.
The sales of the product is not so well, but the perfumer has also been relaxed for a while.
After Ella finishes talking about the whole thing, she tells Lily, "Mr. Harper has also checked the record
of all packages the perfumer has received and found out that the item he got that day came from an old
neighborhood in Yorkshire."
"Mr. Harper went to that neighborhood and found that the house was empty and the phone number
was fake. Later, he went to the courier delivery company and talked to the delivery man."
Lily raises her eyebrows and says, "It has been so long. He collects so many items every day. Does he
remember who sent it?"
"He really does." Ella says, "The delivery man said he remembered that because when he went to
collect the package, a couple was quarreling. And the woman slapped the man."
"The delivery man said that the woman looked weak, as if she had a serious illness. The woman
wanted to send the package, but the man kept stopping her. When the delivery man took the package,
the woman was still cursing the man."
Ella remembers something, takes out a few photos from the drawer, and gives them to Lily, "Mr. Harper
went to check the surveillance cameras near where the delivery man took the package and printed the
couple's photos. See if you can recognize them."
Lily takes over the photos.
Because those photos are taken by surveillance cameras, the people and the background in the photos
are blurry.
However, Lily recognizes the woman in the blurry photo at a glance. It is Willow Roth. And the man
next to her is exactly Willow's husband.
Lily instantly understands everything and smiles coldly, "I have been blaming the higher-ups of the
company after that incident. I thought that the perfumer worked for both companies, but I didn't expect
that it was my own mistake."
She has previously told Willow about this new product and given Willow a sample of the perfume.
After Willow loses her child, she wants to take revenge on Lily, so she sends the perfume sample to the
perfumer of the Egret Company and asks him to release the perfume before the HS Company sells it.
When the HS Company releases the same product, since the Egret Company has released it first, the
HS Company will be accused of theft for copying their rival company's product.
That will be destructive to Lily and the HS Company.
Ella does not understand it, so she asks, "President Lily, do you know that couple?"
"Yes, I do." Lily says indifferently, tearing the photos into pieces, "This is the same woman who has
accused me of murdering her."
"Then why did she withdraw her charge?" Ella asks curiously, "Can this be a trap?"
"How about I send you back first? The news has been suppressed, and we have found out the reason
for the incident. The Egret Company won't be able to frame us."
"No, drive me to the company." Lily's eyes turns cold, "I'll take care of my own mistake."
"Okay, you're the boss."
After arriving at the company, Lily tells Ella to ask their company's perfumer to go to her office. She
then goes to wash up in the bathroom of her own office.
While she is in detention, the police have also provided a bathroom for her.
But Lily is afraid that another accident may happen, so she has not used it. It has been more than ten
days, and her body smells.
She has asked Ella to drive her directly to the company because she remembers that she has
shampoo, shower gel and clothes in the bathroom of her office, and that there are really things waiting
to be dealt with here.
After Lily washes up, changes her clothes, and dries her hair, Ella has taken the perfumer there.
"Hello, President Lily." The perfumer asks, "What's the matter?"
Lily gives him some test paper for perfume and points at the two bottles of perfume samples on the
table, "The one on the left is the product released by the Egret Company last month. The one on the
right is our product. Smell them."
The perfumer immediately understands Lily's intention, and he says, "I have also watched the news,
but our company did not react to it. So I don't dare to say anything, either. I just need to smell the Egret
Company's product. I know the ingredients of all our products very well."
"Okay." Lily nods.
The perfumer sniffs the Egret Company's product for three times.
He notices something and immediately tells Lily, "President Lily, this product from the Egret Company
smells very similar to our new product, but one ingredient in the base notes is completely different from
ours."
"Yes, I also found out about that earlier." Lily says.
When she sniffs the perfume of the Egret Company, she feels that it smells very similar to their
company's new product, but it is also a little different. "I see, so it's because of the base notes."
The perfumer nods and says, "In perfume, there are top, middle and base notes. The base notes are
especially important. The base notes in our perfume are quite special, because one ingredient can only
be found in Finland and is expensive."
"The Egret Company's perfumer probably didn't smell it. Or perhaps he has smelled it and is able to
copy it, but he felt that the ingredient was too expensive and substituted it with another ingredient."
"No matter what, we can solve the problem now." Lily heaves a sigh of relief.
Because the Egret Company has struck first to troll the HS Company and to accuse the HS Company
of copying their product, the HS Company has suffered great losses during this period of time. Even
the share price of their company has been affected.
If Lily don't solve it as soon as possible, the headquarter might fire her first.
Lily asks the perfumer to leave first and then asks Ella to come in. She asks Ella to contact the director
and the perfumer of the Egret Company, and then tells the media that they want to hold a press
conference.
Lily orders some food and uses the waiting time to measure the heartbeats of her fetuses with a B-
ultrasound machine.
While she was in detention in the past ten days, she could not eat or sleep well. Her fetuses have
moved less in the past few days. She is afraid that something is wrong.
At this critical moment, all eyes are fixed on her, so she cannot spare time to go to the hospital to have This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
a check-up.
Lily is relieved when she finds that her fetuses' heartbeats are normal.
After a while, Ella comes to the office with several boxes of food and tells Lily, "President Lily, Miss
Gibson from Brilliant Media called me. She said that she wanted to come back to testify for you after
she heard the news."
"However, when she was boarding the plane, people at the airport said that something was wrong with
her visa. They interrogated her for several days and took her mobile phone away. She didn't get it back
until today. But she called me and told me about it immediately after she got her phone back."
