Melanie was not good enough because her nose was not sensitive, and she did not have sufficient
talent. Her lack of practice also contributed further to her degenerated skills. However, she knew the
basic principles and process and was helping on the sidelines.
She must admit that Frank was very charming when he was working seriously. He carefully dripped the
extracted essential oil and some other ingredients. Then he stirred the mixture to blend them. Finally,
he placed it on the rack for the mixture to settle and waited for the result.
He did three trials and made three test tubes of samples. He said, “One of them will be the result we
are looking for. There might also be a surprise.”
“Do you mean similar style series?” Melanie asked.
“Looks like you are not too stup*d.” Frank raised his eyebrow and lifted her chin with his hand.
Melanie turned to the side to avoid his touch. “However, similar style series are not very useful.
Consumers won‘t usually buy two perfunes of similar smell. They usually choose the one they like the
most. If so, the other one will be useless junk.”
“No, you can‘t say that. It‘s just the survival of the fittest. The one chosen by the public is the best–
selling product, while the other can be an imitation. The smell is similar, but the price is much lower.
This way, you will gain considerable profit, right?” Frank smiled meaningfully.
Melanie‘s eyes widened in surprise, “Isn‘t this equivalent to making pirated copies of your own
products?!”
Perfumers would typically dispose of a defective product that did not meet their expected results. This
was the first time Melanie had heard of intentionally keeping the defective product, and she was
surprised by Frank‘s malicious idea.
It was true that imitations and pirated copies did bring in considerable profit. However, genuine
producers would not do it as it was similar to smearing their own brand.
“No, no, no! We only call it piracy if someone else imitates you. Why would you consider it stolen if it‘s
your own thing?” He paused for a second before laughing mockingly, “Besides, it‘s not like you haven‘t
done it before. Aren‘t you clear about how you obtained MN Inc.‘s previous products?”
Frank‘s words stabbed into her heart as this was the last thing she wanted to hear, “Don‘t talk
nonsense!”
Although it was not a big deal, she felt heartbroken whenever someone blatantly mentioned her lies.
“MN Inc.‘s products are my hard work. It has nothing to do with imitation and piracy.” “Well, that‘s none
of my business, but you still haven‘t given me what you promised. In addition...” Frank turned to face
her and put his arms around her body, “You‘ve been avoiding me recently!”
His pheromones rushed to Melanie‘s face as soon as he approached her, causing her difficulty
breathing. Melanie unconsciously tensed her body, “As I‘ve said before, I need to wait for the right
chance. So, wait for my news.”
“I‘m getting impatient! Are you fooling me, Mel?” “Ah!” She took a deep breath, “Please don‘t! We‘re in
a lab!” Frank looked around after hearing her words. Then he looked at her face, “Now that you‘ve
mentioned it, this is the laboratory.”
