Even with all the noise going on, Frank was unperturbed.He had a wineglass in one hand and a smug grin on his face as he glanced over at the commotion.
"Do you know who that man is?"
Melanie shook her head as she looked at the man and then back at Frank.
Given that this was her first visit, she certainly would not have known anyone.
"He’s Wesley Parker, a top perfumer from Westwood.This taround, he’s also serving as the competition's chairperson.He is one of the world's top eight perfumers, a talent that only emerges once every few centuries,"
Frank explained, forming the number eight with his fingers.
In a deep tone, he continued, "Do you think that woman can leave this place like nothing had happened, or rather, make a nfor herself in Westwood’s perfumery industry now that she offended him?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMelanie understood the situation after listening to Frank’s explanation.She could not conceal her joy.
"That means she’s dead meat!"
"Not necessarily."
Frank shook his head.
"Mr.Parker is bipolar, and no one could guess his feelings.In any case, things would get interesting!"
Frank’s words did not affect Melanie’s high spirits at all.She thought, ‘No one would enjoy being publicly reprimanded and having their mistakes pointed out, especially someone of such high status.
With so many people present, she complained about the organizer's incompetence, calling them biased.
In other words, she’s saying the event organizer was a snob and made them look bad in front of everyone, right? She’s so dead this time!’ Faced with Lily’s criticism, Wesley only sneered.
"I’ve never said that it would be fair."
Everyone at the scene, including Lily, was rendered speechless.
However, Wesley paid no attention to the crowd’s reaction and continued, "This world is an unfair place, to begin with.All of you here are perfumers, so I’m sure you understand.Swere born extra sensitive to scents, and shave wealthy parents who could support them in achieving their dreams.Meanwhile, scould never be good enough as those born with talents, no matter how hard they work Is any of this fair? It’s not! Then why would you askto be fair?"
The group was taken aback by his honesty, but they all agreed that he was speaking the truth upon reflection.
Nothing in this world was entirely fair, and many people had to deal with injustice from birth.
"I’m not asking for the organizer to be completely fair to everyone, but respect is one thing they should have.If I’m not mistaken, most of us here haven’t seen the organizing committee members until now, have we?"
Despite Wesley's retort, Lily maintained her composure and did not becflustered.
People in the crowd were murmuring to one another and nodding occasionally.
They agreed with what Lily said, but nobody dared to speak up.
Wesley said nothing, but his gaze was fixed on Lily.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone was on edge because of the tense silence, as if a bomb were about to go off.
Many people were there, but it was so quiet that one could have heard a pin drop.
Wesley's anger was plain for all to see.
How could he, a legendary figure in the perfindustry, put up with being publicly reprimanded by a young lady? Giselle, who was by Lily’s side, was already breaking out in a cold sweat.
It baffled her how everything could have gone this wrong.She had taken every precaution possible, but they still made a catastrophic mistake.
If she had foreseen this, she might have let Lily skip today's event.
Currently, Melanie is the happiest person in the room.
Her mind was consumed with the idea that Lily had lost her chances.
‘She's too full of herself! Did her past successes make her forget how fresh she is in the industry? How dare she tell Mr.Parker off like this when he could easily crush her and force her out of the industry for good.
Now that I think about it, knowing him would open up my future.
He is powerful, so if I could use his nor get him to teach me, I would succeed, right?’ A plan had formed in Melanie’s mind.
When tensions reached a breaking point, and chaos seemed imminent, a melodious voice cut through the chaos, "Daddy! I’ve been looking everywhere for you!"
