The man in charge of the nursery did not exaggerate its size as it was indeed enormous. After walking around the entire morning, Lily and Jenny probably visited only a third of the site, and their legs were already sore. “Let‘s get ready to head back soon. Later, we‘ll get them to send us samples of all the flowers they have so we can compare them and decide which ones to use. Our task is basically done after that.” Jenny dusted her hands, her face dotted with sweat from the heat.

“I want to look around a little longer,” Lily said.
“Huh?” Jenny was surprised. “At what? I think we‘ve seen enough. Even if we spend all day here, we probably won‘t be able to see everything because the place is so big. How about this? What species do you want to look at specifically? I‘ll get someone from the nursery to drive us there.”
It would be too exhausting for them to keep walking! “It‘s fine. I just want to look around and see if I can discover anything new, that‘s all.” “The nursery‘s office has the samples for all the flower species and has the best selections. It‘s not much different from what we see here.” Although that was what Jenny said, she gave in after seeing Lily‘s insistence. “Okay then. I‘ll go with you.” Jenny was right as that was what everyone in the industry would do. The perfumers would first look at the samples before deciding the species and amount of flowers used in their products.
Then, the nursery would deliver the goods to them. Most perfumers would not walk the entire nursery just to search for the flowers they want. “Thanks, Jen.” Although Lily felt slightly guilty, she would not give up. It was true that the nursery‘s office had all the samples, but what she wanted was not only flowers!
Mother nature was rich with resources. Other than flowers, there were grasses, trees, and various types of plants. All of these could be the extraction sources for the fragrances, and they might be overlooked unless someone personally hunted for them. Recently, Lily had gotten a new idea, but she had yet to find a suitable ingredient. She wondered if she could get anything from there.

The bed was empty. Nobody else was around, and it felt like she had awakened from a dream. Gritting her teeth, she sucked in a deep breath before she moved from the center of the bed to
The corner, where she slowly placed her legs on the ground. Just as she slipped her feet into the slippers, she heard the bathroom door opening. Then Frank walked out with a towel wrapped around his torso.
“Ouch...” She gasped subconsciously. Seeing him made her panic, and her gaze was all over the place.
When she saw him stride toward her, her instinct was to run away and escape from the man, but where could she possibly go? Frank had already reached her when he slowly bowed down, placing his hands on either side of her body to trap her in the middle. “Babe, you’re awake?” He held her chin and lifted her head.
