“I’m tired. I’ll borrow your bed to sleep for the night.”Melanie didn’t say anything else and simply jumped into the bed in Annie’s office and got under her blanket.Annie didn’t want to see her being on her own and got up as well, hugging her. “Let me accompany you.”“Don’t worry about me. Get back to work.”“Forget about work. None of my plans are usable tomorrow!” Annie said angrily.-The next day, Melanie was sneezing and had a fever. Annie was very nervous because she knew that Melanie caught a cold from the rain last night.But she couldn’t find any medicine despite searching high and low. “Wait for me. I’ll get you some medicine.”“Don’t worry about it. I want to sleep a little more. Go to work,” Melanie said sleepily.Looking at the time, Morgan Group’s tendering had already started. But looking at Melanie’s pale face, Annie decided she was going to show Jeffrey what she was made of using this chance!“Alright. Wait for me. I’ll get some medicine for you when I get
All Annie did was start some chaos and she didn’t say anything about partnering up, and his boss was... going to sign a contract with the Snows directly? William looked at Jeffrey with wide eyes as he didn’t understand.His boss had always been someone that was very impartial, even when it came to Master Stephen. Even when Madam Morgan asked for him to take care of her friends, he would still oversee the process strictly and showed little leniency...“Do you not understand what I said?” Jeffrey asked unhappily.“I understand.”William didn’t dare to say anything else. He quickly ordered his people to prepare the contract and accompanied his boss who personally went to Snow Group.-After Annie got it all out of her system, she immediately headed back to her company from Morgan Group. She didn’t forget to get some cold medicine for Melanie from the pharmacy on her way back.When she got back, Melanie had just woken up.Annie gave her the medicine that she had just finished prepa
Jeffrey had never been kicked out before, especially not on his turf in Harbor City. Since becoming Jeffrey's assistant, William had never experienced anything like this before either. He was angry and embarrassed, but there was no other emotion on Jeffrey’s face except a hint of melancholy. "President Morgan, the sales department just reported that Jane has returned to work..." William broke the silence in a timely manner, not wanting Jeffrey to sink into a low mood. "Should we notify her to resign?" "No." Jeffrey raised his eyes, and there was finally a hint of sharpness in his gaze. "Let her stay. She's just bait, and can be used positively or negatively." "I understand." William nodded. "What about Mrs. Morgan?" "Assign someone to keep an eye on her and report everything to me. Be meticulous." Jeffrey's brow furrowed again. Half an hour later, just as Jeffrey's car arrived at Morgan Group’s parking lot, William received a call and his expression turned serious. "P
"Ahem!" Melanie almost choked. "Don't talk nonsense." "If he doesn’t have any intentions toward you, why is he so concerned about you?" said Annie, with a gossiping look in her eyes. "Probably just repaying a favor,” Melanie replied. "Got it." Annie pursed her lips. "It would have been better if you didn’t mention repaying favors, but once you bring it up, it can only be repaid with marrying him. In my opinion, this Gabriel isn’t bad. He’s quite good-looking, and his strength in the fragrance world is not inferior to Jeffrey in the business world. Why not consider him? The best way to heal a broken heart is to get a rebound." "I'm going to sleep." Melanie closed her eyes, ignoring the woman next to her who was suggesting dubious ideas. Out of the corner of her eye, Annie saw Melanie close her eyes. Across the aisle, Gabriel turned off the overhead night light and removed his hearing aid... Over ten hours later, the plane arrived in Medonia on time. Gabriel and his a
"Do you know what you're talking about?" Harlow snarled.He couldn't tolerate it any longer. He valued his pride the most, and no one had ever dared to say that his health was bad. Besides, his health was undoubtedly the best among the entire Yorks. That was without a doubt! Because he was in good health, his grandfather always favored him to inherit the family business. This woman had a lot of guts to publicly claim that he was sick! "I know exactly what I'm saying." Facing the roaring beast, Melanie shielded Annie behind her, her expression calm. "At the Angle family’s centennial celebration, I demonstrated my ability to identify herbs by smell in public. That should ring a bell for you, Mr. York. I’ve been studying traditional medicine ever since I was young, and I know the ways of observation, smelling, questioning, and pulse-taking. Your illness has already penetrated into your bones." Seeing her speak with such conviction, Harlow's subordinates behind him were frig
In this International Perfume Blending Competition, there were two main themes: "Mystery" and "Solution." Participants needed to create two different perfumes based on these themes. The competition would last for five to nine weeks. After five weeks, as long as the perfumes were completed and aged, it could be submitted any time. However, before the final submission of the finished product, all participants must create their fragrances at a designated location. Participants could enter and exit their fragrance blending room at any time, but were subject to monitoring each time they were in the room. During the time not spent in the fragrance blending room, participants could choose to stay in the hotels arranged by the organizers, or go elsewhere. Annie accompanied Melanie to the hotel arranged by the organizers. After checking in, she received an email from a private detective. When Melanie came out after taking a shower, she noticed Annie's unusually low spirits and asked,
After pausing for a few seconds, the dizziness disappeared.Melanie stood upright. "I'm fine." It was then that she noticed she had accidentally scratched her finger on a wooden splinter by the wall, causing it to bleed. "You expect me to believe that you're fine? If you’re not in good health, rest more. Why were you so anxious to come here?" Gabriel shook his head with concern. Above their heads, there happened to be a surveillance camera. In the monitoring room stood a man with a strong and commanding presence. He zoomed in on the image, focusing on Gabriel’s hand, which was holding Melanie’s arm. His Adam's apple bobbed frantically. The man standing behind her should have been him! Jeffrey furrowed his brows and gritted his teeth. William asked cautiously, "President Morgan, they're out of the fragrance blending room, so the surveillance can't capture them anymore. Are you still going to watch?" Jeffrey's eyes turned dark. "Do you have band-aids?" "Yes." William h
"Mrs. Morgan..." William supported Annie into the room, standing respectfully on the side. "Mr. Moore, why are you here?" Melanie was puzzled. "For the details, you can ask President Snow. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave." William nodded politely, exiting the room and closing the door behind them. "Where are you hurt?" Melanie crouched down, looking at Annie, who was drenched in water. "I sprained my ankle. I've already been to the hospital. I’m fine. Sorry for making you worry." Annie spoke with a hand over her mouth, but then she suddenly remembered something and urgently added, "By the way, William suddenly appeared for some reason. It means Jeffrey’s also in Medonia. Be careful not to be deceived by him!" "He's already deceived me." "What?" Annie jumped up in surprise, but her injured foot ached, causing her to sit back down. "Don't get overwhelmed. I know what to do." Melanie held onto Annie’s shoulder, trying to calm her. "Tell me how
