Chapter 455 After returning from the Lodge family‘s home, Alexander noticed that his wife was busier
than ever. She was burying herself with work every day in the laboratory and would continue working at
home.
Alexander finally could not resist asking after a few days,” What have you been doing, Lily?“. Since Lily
got home, she was absent–mindedly eating and wanted to go straight into her workspace.
At her request a few days ago, Alexander vacated a room in the back of the house for Lily to work on her
projects. Now, Alexander thought that it might have been a mistake.
‘Home is home. Why does Lily have to work when she‘s at home? Does she have to bring all her work
home every day?‘

she was fine with that. She had always been busy like this all her life.
“Is this about the Southbank soap? I can get someone to help you if it‘s too overwhelming for you. Maybe
we can reconsider and renegotiate this collaboration. You don‘t need to tire yourself out like this.”
Alexander was upset to see the deep dark circles under Lily‘s eyes.
He had made some inquiries. There had been no new projects in the company lately and other
perfumers
handled some small projects in Rebirth. Lily only had to focus on the Southbank soap, so he did not
expect her to be so overwhelmed.
“Southbank soap?” Lily was stunned for a second, then said, “Oh no, that‘s not what I‘in working on.”
“What? What else could it be?” Alexander was surprised,” Rebirth has another new project for you?” He
thought, ‘Looks like I have to speak to George. He didn‘t even report a new project to me.‘ “No, it‘s not
that.” Seeing the look on Alexander‘s face, Lily realized that she had neglected him a little these days.
She stopped working and explained to him, “Actually, I‘m working on an essential oil for my grandfather.”
Alexander was startled, “Your grandfather?”
His first reaction was why would an older gentleman of his age would need to use perfume. It did not
make sense when he thought about it. However, when he heard Lily say essential oil, he understood that
it was probably for aromatherapy, “Do you want to help him sleep?” The last time he was at the Lodges‘
house, he heard about Wilfred‘s insomnia. In fact, many of the elderly experienced sleep troubles. He did
not expect Lily to take this matter to heart and drown herself in work since she returned. “Yeah.” Lily
nodded, “I want to make an aromatherapy oil specially customized for my grandfather and put it in his
room so that he can stay calm and sleep easily.”

Alexander pondered and said, “As far as I know, there‘s something like this on the market. I think there
are lavender oil, sandalwood oil, and so on, which help sleep. Do you need to...” He didn‘t say anything
after that, but what he meant was obvious.
Since there were ready–made products on the market, why spend so much time and effort to develop
new ones instead of buying them?
Lily knew what Alexander was going to say, but she was not angry, “There are quite a few products like
that, and some of them are also very effective. I‘ve spoken to Justin. My grandfather refused even to see
a doctor. These supplementary products had to be used secretly at home, but there wasn’t much effect.
He was unhappy when he found out and asked everyone to stop using them. So I wonder whether it
would be better to make one myself.” “If you made it yourself, your grandfather will not refuse to use it.”
Nodding, Alexander understood.
