A huge sound startled everyone in the conference room.
The tea spilled out of Beatrix's cup and almost burned her hand.
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, only to see a group of people standing at the doorway, glaring angrily at them.
After a momentary daze, everyone, including the president of the Perfume Association, personally stood up and respectfully greeted him.
"Mr. Jenkins, how come you're here?" This group of elderly people, each one of them is a leading figure in the fragrance industry, and can be said to have reached the pinnacle of their careers.
The mannerisms are truly frightening.
The old man, called Mr. Jenkins, leaned on his cane and looked sternly at him, "If | don't come back, | don't know what kind of foolishness you bunch of rascals can get up to!" The chairman asked urgently, "What do you mean by saying that?" Mr. Jenkins snorted coldly, but before he could speak, an old lady in a long dress standing behind him with an unfriendly expression spoke up, "I heard that you are planning to disqualify that girl named Selena from the competition. Is there any truth to this?" The president was shocked and puzzled, and spoke truthfully, "It is true, we were preparing to make an announcement--" "Son of a bitch!" Mr. Jenkins angrily picked up his cane and threw it at him.
Others were scared and immediately stepped forward to stop it.

The president was completely baffled and quickly advised, "Mr. Jenkins, if there are any mistakes made by the students, please point them out, but don't get yourself too upset and affect your health." Mr. Jenkins, a good role model, sat down in his seat after being persuaded, but still glared angrily at the people in the meeting room.
A group of people from the Perfume Association were all at a loss, facing the heavy and discontented gazes of the elderly men and women.
What's the story behind Selena? Unexpectedly, she managed to rally the old titans of the perfume industry to come out in force and support her.
Does that mean just because Selena is the Miss from the Riddle family from the capital? It's impossible! This group of old guys is known for being stubborn. Anyone can be bought, but they are the only ones who cannot.
This group of elderly people, each one of them is a leading figure in the fragrance industry, and can be said to have reached the pinnacle of their careers.
At this moment, the group of people who were just confidently and self-righteously standing tall like quails, are now bowing their heads in front of a group of old experts.
The president of the fragrance association reluctantly said, "Mr. Jenkins, you are not aware that Selena had a bad record of seducing judges three years ago. This time, she has also made some improper movements, which has caused dissatisfaction among other perfumers.” "If we don't revoke her participation qualification, those perfumers may all collectively withdraw from the competition. For the honor of the Fragrance Association, | have no choice but to-" Before the president could finish speaking, Mr. Jenkins roared in rage, "Then let them all get out of here!" The crowd looked at Mr. Jenkins, who suddenly threw a tantrum, with confused expressions.
Beatrix broke out in a cold sweat on her forehead.
It should be known that perfumers are most afraid of being irritable and temperamental. Mr. Jenkins, who has become a veteran in the perfume industry, is known for having a good temperament.
This is the first time they've seen him get so angry.
He would rather give up all other perfumers and keep Selena...
The president's heart skipped a beat, suddenly realizing that he may have actually done something foolish.
"Mr. Jenkins, the student knows they made a mistake. Please don't be angry, please explain the situation calmly..." A woman in a long skirt, who was a perfume expert, stared at them and said, "Are you blind? Didn't you see the morning competition? The way Leia was blending the scents..." She pointed directly at the head of the president in front of everyone without any reservation and said angrily, "You, a supposed president of the perfume association at the age of 40, are not necessarily better than others." "Such a rare talent, yet you blatantly pulled their qualifications to participate. Are you foolish?" Do you still want an old man from another field to point his finger at our perfume industry and curse us for not knowing what's good? "What?" The president suddenly froze.
He had a very important meeting this morning and did not go to the venue to watch the game in person, completely unaware of what had happened.
The president suddenly turned around and looked at the people behind him who went to the venue to watch the game today.
Those few people are also stunned at the moment.
Especially Beatrix, cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
The president roared angrily, "Is this true or not?" Those people nodded and said, "Selena's fragrance techniques... are indeed... quite remarkable..." The president's middle-aged face turned completely pale in an instant.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Not just outstanding!" The woman in the long dress, who was a fragrance designer, sneered, "The entire fragrance industry, including your group -" She scanned the crowd on site one by one and sneered, "As the rumor goes, these members of the perfume association represent the highest level of fragrance blending techniques. But there is no one among them who could surpass her!" And those who were pointed out hung their heads in shame with nowhere to hide.
Beatrix was wiping the cold sweat that continuously streamed down her forehead with a handkerchief.
That woman coldly sneered again, "A nineteen-year-old girl with such outstanding skills, you can imagine when she started practicing and how much hard work she put in to lay such a strong foundation. With such powerful abilities, does she need to cheat?" The whole conference room fell into a pin-drop silence.
Sweat dripped from Beatrix's head like a waterfall.
"The most important thing is..." The long-dressed female perfumer looked at Mr. Jenkins beside her with a sigh in her eyes, and still said that sentence, "She is Lady Nevaeh's daughter.” What? At this moment, in the conference room, a group of senior perfumers lifted their heads in shock.
ady Nevaeh's reputation in the fragrance industry still echoes even 20 years after her passing.
After all, she was the only one who could modulate...
The perfumers who were fortunate enough to live in the same era as her have a hint of awe and nostalgia in their eyes.
After a moment of stunned silence, the president suddenly knelt before Mr. Jenkins and said, "Teacher, | was wrong. | will immediately investigate this matter and will definitely give Lady Selena a fair deal!" He finally understood why Mr. Jenkins was so angry.
Lady Nevaeh was once the old master's most beloved and proud disciple.
Her early departure was not only a loss to the entire perfume industry, but also the greatest regret of Mr. Jenkins' life.
When the news of Lady Nevaeh's death arrived, the elderly woman fell seriously ill as a result.
Now that he saw her daughter stepping onto the stage of perfumery, he was still immersed in the joy of seeing an old friend's appearance. But when he suddenly received the news that Selena might be disqualified from participating in the perfume competition, how could he not be extremely angry? Mr. Jenkins gave a cold snort and said, "I know some of you are not convinced and think that | am using my seniority to suppress others, ignoring the facts and deliberately favoring Nevaeh's daughter.” He stared at Beatrix sharply and said, "Since that's the case..."
