He lifted her hand and planted a kiss on the back of it.
Clap, clap The audience erupted into applause as Melanie withdrew her hand immediately. Most
people could only see the kiss Frank planted on her hand, but he had also licked her hand. It was brief,
and he released her hand instantly after. It was as if it had never happened. The area he had licked
and kissed her burned. It was a tickly feeling, like a cat‘s tongue. It made her heart skip a beat.
Melanie‘s cheeks flushed red, but she did not dare expose what he just did in front of the audience.
She smiled and lowered her head shyly, acting like all the praises she had just received embarrassed
her.
Only Lily narrowed her eyes at them and looked at Melanie with a smirk. Lily was too far away to see
what Frank had done, but based on Melanie‘s reaction, it was not due to the compliments she had
gotten. Melanie was the type of person who would claim credit for something that was not hers, so she
certainly was not one to be bashful in the face of praise. There was something more going on between
them.
Back on the stage, the host continued to compliment the pair, “Looks like Mr. Moreau and Ms. Thayer
are quite like–minded, and this is something that we‘re glad to bear witness to. The main purpose of
this year‘s sampling event was to show the world that our local perfumers are just as qualified as those
abroad. We strongly believe that this industry will grow, and we‘d produce more talented perfumers in
the future. We believe that those of you present today will be our forerunners in leading this industry
into a brighter future.” “It‘s done. Let‘s leave!” Lily elbowed Jenny softly.
“Don‘t you think that there‘s something strange going on between Mr. Moreau and Ms. Thayer?” Jenny
tilted her head at Lily while still eyeing Frank and Melanie. In response, Lily turned toward the stage.
Frank and Melanie were standing some distance apart, not making eye contact and acting like nothing
was wrong. It surprised her that even Jenny could tell that something was going on. “What‘s strange
about them?” Lily asked.
“They‘re acting like they don‘t know each other,” Jenny pointed to them with her chin,” Didn‘t we see
them on the flight here? I‘m pretty sure they were together, but now they‘re acting like they‘re strangers
and are giving compliments. Tsk...” Jenny smacked her lips and sighed, “Never could I imagine that a
famous perfumer would be such a sham... On second thought, he might not even be a famous Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
perfumer. There‘s no telling where he got all of those medals. People are so shameless nowadays, so
shameless!”
Jenny stood up with no intention of staying, “Let‘s go. We should just go back and rest. We still have
some sightseeing to do tomorrow.” Lily took another glance at the pair. Jenny reminded her they had
seen them on the flight here and that Frank was the foreigner sitting next to Melanie. This was getting
interesting. Not
only did Melanie come here without Nathaniel, but these two also pretended to be strangers when they
were pretty friendly. This entire ordeal was just a stunt to increase Melanie’s popularity Lily continued
walking towards the exit, but she could not help but feel something was not right. She glanced at the
stage, but no one was there besides a few deserted tables.
