During the Jones Enterprise’s press conference, they would launch Melanie’s unique perfume and the first series of dresses marking Derrick’s return.As for the perfume’s name, Melanie had decided on the name “Endless Love” so that it could be easily accepted by the international market.In the beginning, when she first launched this perfume just for Jeffrey, she had named it while holding deep sorrow within her. But after everything she experienced, she felt that her love was actually endless.Even if they were eternally separated, she would love and miss him forever.Luckily, the series of dresses that Derrick designed also had eternal love as a theme.The entire press conference was decorated with love and romance in mind.Melanie and Derrick were there overseeing the work, and they were all very happy with the results.Derrick was also going to perform during the press conference. Originally, he wanted Melanie to be his accompanist, but she refused; she didn’t want to steal h
The final rehearsal was successfully completed.In fifteen minutes, the press conference would officially begin.Derrick would first have a speech about the Eternal Series wedding dresses.After so many years, his skills were still far beyond those of this era. He was still spearheading the fashion industry, sparking countless conversations about innovations. Half an hour ago, Derrick personally led the co-designer of the perfume series, Melanie.Melanie received the mic that was passed to her and got on stage.Only one spotlight was directly on her as she stood on stage, and everything was dimmed out. She was holding the first bottle of “Endless Love” that she had blended, and introducing its top, middle, and base notes, as well as the emotions that she wanted to invoke.In the last ten minutes, she would be open to questions from both the media and the guests that were present.After several normal questions, one of the reporters asked a particularly tricky question.“Miss
Although the question and answer section had ended, it was obvious that Linda was speaking to Melanie.All Melanie could do was remain on stage and make sure that she maintained her composure before walking off stage with a smile.“You’re a prodigious fragrance blender, and someone like you must have a lot of love to give. While unfortunate, your most beloved is gone. But now, you’re prepared to launch the perfume that you made especially for him... That means you’re ready to let it all go and open up a new chapter in your life. Congratulations!”Linda deliberately said all that despite knowing that Melanie couldn’t let go of Jeffrey at all.Melanie tried her best to smile, controlling the ebb and flow of her emotions.Linda understood her, and knew well where she would inflict the maximum amount of pain. She wasn’t planning to respond, because the more she said, the more mistakes she would make.Melanie once again prepared to leave the stage, but Linda continued to speak in a lo
“What do you mean?”Gabriel wasn’t sure why Melanie was worried.“I gave it a thought and I think we shouldn’t let our guard down. We should continue to expand our search. Earlier, we only checked the security cameras within the hall, but we didn’t check the ones outside.”Melanie continued, “According to the photos that Jefford sent me, Linda sent in five people. However, we only found two...”“Maybe the other three didn’t come in and are keeping an eye on things outside,” Gabriel analyzed. He didn’t want her to stress too much about it.“I know.”Melanie nodded. It was possible, but her sixth sense was telling her that things weren’t so easy.“Last time, Linda wanted to kill us by trapping us in a burning building. That’s how brutal she can be. But now, simply having two men in disguise slip in here so that Mr. Lynch’s unable to get on stage by triggering his asthma? This doesn’t fulfill Linda’s need for vengeance...”Melanie explained to Gabriel, “Not to mention that he has
Gabriel was responsible for dealing with the unexpected find in secret while Melanie headed back to the press conference.Jefford called her again, worried about her situation.If it wasn’t because he was still injured and the professor wouldn’t allow him to leave, he would be there personally to help her.“Thanks to your heads up, we found what Linda’s men were preparing to do and we’ve dealt with it. Allow me to show you a surprise later,” she said with a smile.Only now did she feel that her alliance with Jefford was something real, and she was willing to sincerely help him deal with his problem and remove the dangers in front of him.It felt good to be able to get an ally’s trust and protection.Half an hour later.Gabriel was done with his project in the northwestern corner of the hall according to Melanie’s request. Once back in the hall, he said, “Everything’s ready. My people couldn’t get too close so we’re not sure when they’ll make a move. That’s the only unknown left
Linda was staring at Melanie as she wasn’t sure what she had up her sleeve! Melanie stopping her from leaving could get her killed.But when more and more people looked at her, Linda quickly smiled seductively at everyone as she changed her expression.“I would like to ask all guests to please follow our staff outside so that we can go to the best place to watch this surprise,” the host once again said.The guests didn’t know what was happening. They simply walked to the door and spoke to Linda respectfully.“Ms. Linda, if you may...”Linda was placed at the forefront.Hundreds of people were looking forward to seeing the surprise she had brought for them and she couldn’t refuse. All she could do was lead the herd and glance at the bodyguard behind her.The bodyguard quickly left. He knew he had to delay the explosion, otherwise his master would be the first to die in that explosion!But Linda was even more shocked!The staff led her and everyone to where she had arranged her
Everyone was shocked.They didn’t know what happened, but they were all shocked by Linda’s desperate scream and they were all stressed out.Linda had already escaped, and her bodyguards all chased after her, covering her...But two seconds later...Boom!First, a firecracker exploded and it blew up the earth that was covering the “explosives”. Then...Hiss!After a screeching sound, a red bolt fired up above, slicing through the night sky.And then... Boom! Boom! Boom!The sounds of fireworks started to ring as they streaked directly into the sky, bursting in a parade of prismatic hues in the dark night.“How dare you trick me, Melanie?!” She cursed under her breath as she gritted her teeth.The bodyguard finally realized what happened and quickly asked, “They’ll be looking for you to thank you later, miss. Do... you want to go back?”“What for? Am I not embarrassed enough?”Linda yelled at him angrily. After she finished, she walked away angrily.The guests who were watc
Melanie gave a bright smile. “Of course. I personally set this up, so of course it’s going to be pretty! But you already missed the best part of tonight...”“What?” Jeffrey asked.In order to make it easier for them to chat, Melanie turned the camera back to herself. “Your aunt told her bodyguards to dance in front of everyone tonight. I even recorded it. I’ll send the video to you later so you can watch. I heard that the song is called ‘You’re So Pretty’.”Jeffrey also laughed.He had not laughed out loud like that for a long time.Just imagining it was enough to make him smile, not to mention that she was also laughing on the other side of the camera.Her smile was able to infect him well. “After that dance, I put on a firework show to entertain everyone. I heard that many of the partners that worked with Linda for a long time are going to pay you a visit next time. Heal up and be prepared soon.”“Sure.”“Linda’s dug her own grave this time,” she couldn’t help but say again.
