Chapter 2131
The young man hugged Grace's arm. 'That was his fault. He rode against traffic in the tunnel and went up to a
hundred and sixty miles. I've never rode faster than a hundred and twenty."
Grace raised her voice. "Is one hundred and twenty not fast enough already?" "It is, it is. Mom, please forgive
me. | just couldn't resist myself. Please don't tell Dad. | won't ride ever again in the future."
Before Grace could say anything, he added, "Mom, did you change skincare products recently? Your skin looks a
little... strange."
Grace becnervous upon hearing that, and she immediately touched her face. "I didn't. I'm still using the
sbrands. What's wrong with my face? What do you mean strange?"
The man widened his gaze, looked carefully at Grace's face, and said," Strangely beautiful."
Grace could not help but smile as she pushed him away. "You cheeky boy.

Stop teasing me!"
He then hugged Grace's arm. "I mean it. While other moms are getting older, my mom is actually looking
younger. When you cto passsomething at school last time, my classmates thought you were my sister.
"My roommate even asked for your number, saying he wants to be my brother-in-law. | thought about it and
refused him because Dad would surely disallow it."
Although Grace scolded him, there was no trace of anger on her face." Okay, stop messing around. You said you
were going to choose the perffor me, right? Hurry up, choose one, and let's go home.
"Your dad will be back from work soon. If we can't be hbefore dinner, he's going to be upset again."
Her son nodded and turned to Stella. "Ste-"
He then held his tongue and asked Grace, "Mom, how should | address this lady?" "She's the Vice President of
Caline, Stella Hall." Grace then briefly introduced them to each other, "Ms. Hall, this is my youngest son, Joe
Esper. Please let him try both 'Cloud Nine' and 'Dream Weaver."
Stella nodded. ' Nice to meet you, Mr. Esper. Please cwith me."
Joe felt somewhat uncomfortable as he cleared his throat and said, "Nice to meet you too, Ms. Hall."
Then, he followed behind Stella.
Stella grabbed two fragrance strips and let him try the two perfumes.
Her brows were tightly furrowed as she held the fragrance strips in front of Joe. She was so nervous that she did
not notice his flushed ears at all.
"What do you think?" Stella asked.
For the first time, this gentle voice was not coming from the TV screen but right in front of him. This caused him
to feel extremely nervous.
He stuttered. "I-It's okay."
Stella was taken aback.

She had him try 'Cloud Nine’ first. The fact that Joe only said that it was okay surprised her.
Her eyes lit up immediately. However, she suppressed her emotions and spoke gently, "The top note of 'Cloud
Nine' is not very strong. Let's wait for a while."
Joe nodded.
When Stella asked for his opinion again after the top and base notes had diffused, Joe said, "Just lettry the
other one now.”
So, she did as he said. This time, even before he could smell the base note, he said to Grace, '"Mom, choose this
one. The first one is not nice at all."
Jaylene's expression changed slightly. "Mr. Esper, 'Cloud Nine' is one of our company’s best perfumes. How could
it be not nice? Please don't joke around!"
Joe turned to her, no longer as bubbly as he had been when talking with Grace. "I don't care if it's your best
perfor not. It's just not nice to me. What's the matter? Does everyone have to love what your company
makes and not criticize them?" he said coldly.
