Chapter 699
At half past six, the seats in the ballroom of a five-star hotel in Brown City were almost full.
Other than media reporters, there were also renowned perfumers and newcomers from the perfumery industry.
Anyone who had any relations to the perfumery world gathered here.
After all, this incident caused an uproar and shook the entire perfume industry.
Everyone wanted to come and see how Lily would explain herself.
Everyone wanted to know if she would apologize for her wrongdoings or deny what she said in the recording.
Alexander's car did not drive to the main entrance.
Instead, he arranged to enter through the back.
Then a bodyguard escorted him through the VIP passage to the lounge.His secretary had arrived earlier to organize everything.
Once she heard Alexander coming, she quickly rushed over with a stack of papers.

"Mr.Russell," she called out as she pushed open the door.
When she looked around and did not see the person involved, she was surprised.
"Ms.Christian...did she not come?"
"She has something to do.She'll be here in a bit," Alexander replied lightly.
Once the couple got off the plane, they went their separate ways.
Lily returned to Rebirth while Alexander returned to La Beauté Group's headquarters.
When he was away, the company's backlog piled up, waiting for him to go through them.
"Time is running out.The press conference will start soon.Almost all the reporters and media are here."
Alexander’s secretary was aware of the unusual relationship between her boss and Lily.
Hence she dared not voice her dissatisfaction publicly.
However, Alexander could tell that his secretary was a little unhappy.
‘This is all Lily's fault.If it were someone else, she would have been fired immediately and held
accountable by the company.
However, since that woman is important to Mr.Russel, I have no choice but to take care of her too! ‘The
company’s PR team was already cleaning up Lily’s mess, and we had to organize the press for her!
The company has never done so much for an employee, but Lily is an exception.
Also, time is closing in, and she has yet to arrive!’ Although Alexander's secretary had never met Lily,
the prejudice in her heart was clouding her judgment.She had no idea what kind of woman Lily was to
have made Alexander fall for her.
His secretary heard that Lily belonged to the Lodge family in Sapphine.She wondered if Lily was
another stuck-up, unreasonable young lady.
Judging from what Lily said in the recording, Alexander's secretary assumed that Lily's previous works
and awards she had won were stolen products.

Then he calmly said, "Rose, when did you get so impatient?"
Rose did not know what to say.
Although she could tell he was not angry, after being by his side for so many years, she could hear the displeasure in his tone.
So, she lowered her head and apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr.Russell.I've crossed the line."
This is a big deal, after all.The impact of this incident on the company isn't just a tiny bump.I'm sure you've seen the charts as well.Besides the
media, there are also a bunch of perfumers out there.
There are some big names from the industry.
"Moreover, the senior perfumers in our company are also very concerned about this.This matter does not only affect Ms.Christian.It affects the
company as a whole, including all our staff.However, seeing that Ms.Christian has yet to arrive, we might not have time to look through her script."
"Forget it if you don't have time." Alexander sat upright and rechecked the time.
However, he had no intention of calling anyone.
"Just wait a minute more."
Rose could not refute and remain silent.
