Chapter 606
“That’s indeed my wish too.” Lawrence nodded and said, “However, it seems your wife has rejected
me!”
The crowd was excited to watch how the situation would unfold. Lily could be ignorant about
Lawrence’s identity, but they believed Alexander would know how influential the man was. No matter
how powerful and wealthy La Beauté Group was, they would not offend Lawrence so publicly.
However, something unexpected happened.
“That’s right!” Alexander’s determined voice shocked everyone. His voice was so loud that everyone’s
eardrums were still buzzing as an aftereffect.
His voice was not the only thing that frightened them but his attitude also. Everyone had the same
thoughts at this moment.
‘What did he say? That’s right?‘
“What was right? Did he mean to say that his fiancée was right for rejecting Lawrence in front of so
many people, which showed that she had no respect for him? Was he in his right mind, or did he say
those things by mistake?‘
Lawrence’s expression did not change much, but the corner of his eye twitched a little.
“Mr. Adler, you’re reclusive, so you probably don’t know much about my wife. She’d be happy to play
around with fragrances or conduct research on them. However, she wouldn’t like to join a society,
partake in events, or abide by those rigid rules and regulations.”
Then he emphasized again with a wave of his hand, “She really can’t do it! Hence, she’s not rejecting
you, but those rules and all those events.”
Ever since Alexander arrived, Lily had been silent. Upon hearing his words, he convinced her as well.
‘He’s more experienced and well–versed in socializing with these people.”
Earlier, she had wanted to admit that she rejected Lawrence. To her, there was no need for her to care
about his pride and image if he forced her into doing something she did not like.
However, Alexander’s words managed to resolve the conflict between them quickly. ‘What did he say?
The one I rejected is not him but the rules and events. Just listen to how reasonable. that sounds!‘
“You seem to have social anxiety,” Noah said. “Most of us perfumers have a little of that, but we’ll get
used to it after joining the Perfumers‘ Society. After all, we’re all in the same. profession and speak a
common language. As for the rules and regulations…”
“What? Mr. Richards, are you planning to abolish the rules and regulations passed down for decades in
the society for my wife?” Alexander interjected. “Unless I didn’t know that you’ve been promoted to the
society’s president. Congratulations to you.”
Noah was rendered speechless by Alexander’s words. His hands, hanging by his sides, were clenched
into fists as he tried to suppress his anger.
“Since that’s the case, forget it.” Lawrence finally spoke. Sighing grimly, he looked at Lily and continued
again, “You’re talented. I just wanted you to have a better environment to unleash
12
your talent. If you change your mind, contact me anytime.”
Then Lawrence turned to look at his subordinate, who handed Lily a name card. “My phone number is
on it.”
After saying that, he turned around and got into his car. Since the other people came with him, they
would also leave with him.
With his arm wrapped around Lily’s waist, Alexander stood there as they watched Lawrence’s car
leave. When the car was out of sight, he finally looked at her. “Aren’t I amazing?”
Lily was speechless.
“Don’t you think you should reward me for being so amazing?” He leaned his face closer to hers and
asked for a reward shamelessly.
