"You saw it?"
Eloise trailed off, frowning because she found it hard to believe Nathaniel's words.
"Alexander Russell? The CEO of La Beauté Group?"
Eloise would know about Alexander.
In fact, the Russell family was well known, not only in Sapphine but in the entire nation of Hyderland as
well.
Alexander was widely regarded as the most talented heir to the family and was the source of
admiration for many ladies across the country.
‘Why would such a man be in a relationship with Lily?’ It was not entirely impossible, though, after
Eloise gave it some thought.
If Lily were any other woman, Eloise might be able to convince herself that Lily was one of Alexander's
flings.
However, Lily was a part of the Lodge family.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмIf Alexander and Lily got married, their
union would unite the Russell and Lodge families, which would have a far-reaching impact.
"Mom, I don’t think Lily has feelings for me anymore.Anything I do would be useless.What should I do
now?"
Nathaniel looked disappointed.He knew he had no chance to get back with Lily when his love rival was
Alexander instead of Edward.His attitude pissed off Eloise.
"What should you do? Are you asking me that now? I’ve told you many times before to treat her nicely!
Now that she’s gone, you’re regretting it?"
"I-I was just blinded back then..."
Nathaniel admitted that he made the wrong choice, but it was pointless to talk about that now.
Eloise understood that as well.Hence, she only reprimanded him a little before sighing.
"Forget it! She’s not the only woman in the entire world, and you have many other choices.I must say
this to you now.You can date whoever next time, but you must be smart! You can fool around with
women like Melanie, and she shouldn’t be a woman you marry!"
If it were in the past, Nathaniel would retort, but after everything that had happened, he knew better.
Nodding, he said, "You're right, Mom.I'll listen to your advice next time, but what should I do now?"
Even though he wanted to prove himself to Eloise, he knew she was more perceptive and savvy than
he was in many situations.He had no idea how to solve the problem this time, so he could only seek his
mother’s help.
"You need to stop selling those two new perfumes," Eloise said after some time.
"What?"
That would be a big hit to his company’s income as they mainly depended on the two perfumes to
generate profit.
"What’s with that response? Do you want to see your company being forced to shut down? If that’s the
case, then forget about what I said!"
Nathaniel quickly grabbed Eloise’s arm.
"No! Mom, please.I said I would listen to anything you told me.The thing is that we would only have
perfumes that were created long ago if we stopped selling the two new ones.That would be impossible
for us to expand our market share!"
His words made Eloise scoff before she mocked, "What are you thinking? Do you think you're capable
of expanding the company’s shares now? The most important thing for you to do is to retain the current
shares you have!"
Eloise paused for a while before adding, "Other than removing those two perfumes from your stores,
you must make an announcement immediately.Remember to find someone who’s the best in PR to do
this and only publish the statement when it is good enough.Be careful of the usage of words.That’s one
thing.
"First, you should apologize to the consumers and mention that your company was also tricked in this
case.Demonstrate your principles and that MN Inc.is resolved not to sell creations by problematic
perfumers, then pledge to produce a line of better perfumes soon.
"Lastly, express your pity toward what happened to Melanie.Remember that you must show them
you’re determined to provide the best.Oh, right, don’t forget to mention that you and Melanie broke up
two months ago."
"This is my private matter.I don’t think there’s a need to mention it, right?" Nathaniel asked with
hesitation.
