Before that, she needed to sceltank. She metlim alacale as she felt safer meeting him in public. Frank was late and looked liorrible, His eye bags were hue, but at least he made it.

“Didn‘t you say you were busy?” He questioned as he dropped several sugar cubes into his coffee, stopping after the sixth cube and stirring with his teaspoon.
“Missalready?” Frank teased while taking a liuge sip of coffee and heaving a sigh of satisfaction after.
Melanie sat there staring at him until he was done talking. “Was there anything wrong with the formula you gave me?” She said it slowly and softly, her eyes boring straight into his. “Formula? What formula?” He raised his eyes, not remembering what she was referring to. He glanced at Melanie chewing on lier lips nervously while staring at him.
He finally recalled, “Oh, you‘re talking about that thing I gave you last time. That was just something I thought of at that moment. I‘ve never tried it out, so how would I know it works or not?”
His audacious tone angered Melanie, “You don‘t know?”
“Why‘d you handsomething that you‘re not sure os? Are you trying to getin trouble?” Melanie was furious, but she could not release her anger on him. She controlled herself and hissed, “You knew
I was planning to use the formulas to participate in the annual perfuine contest. How could you do this toafter all i‘ve done for you?”

Melanie was speechless at liis attitude. It might just be a small competition to him, but it meant the world to her. She won many awards using Lily‘s formulas. However, since she was a rookie perfumer and MN Inc. was a small company, she could not enter other more significant categories or win a national award. This twas different. Melanie needed this to gain notoriety among perfumers and get her nout there.
More importantly, she needed to secure lier position amongst the upper class and break free from Frank‘s control. Of course, she would not tell him that, as she needed his help solving his formula‘s problem.
“I don‘t care, the formulas you gavearen‘t working, and you need to helpsolve this! Help me take a look. I need to start on my perfas soon as possible. I‘ll win this competition!” She said with determination as hier eyes drifted toward the scenery outside the window.
“Alright, no problem. Let‘s go to your lab.” He agreed without putting up much of a fight, which surprised Melanie.
However, she was worried now. If Frank cto the lab, Natlianiel could see liim. Nathaniel disliked Frank, and he thought Frank was interested in her. It would only attract unwanted attention if she brought Frank back with her.
