Chapter 397

After leaving George’s office, Lily went directly to Jenny's office.

Jenny was already waiting there, with Olivia as well.

Not only was she there, but there was an opened bottle of champagne and three glasses on the table,
apparently waiting for Lily to return to celebrate.

"Drinking during work hours? You girls are terrible!"

Lily shook her head and said smilingly.

"Who said we were drinking? We're just having a toast to celebrate! "

Jenny corrected her, "Hurry up! Close the door!"

After closing the office door and pulling down the blinds, the trio felt like criminals.

"Isn't the celebration after work? What's the hurry?" Lily said, but she still went over and picked up the
glass.

"Tonight’s celebration is with everyone else.Now, it’s just the three of us.It's different!"

Olivia raised her glass to clink Lily's glass.

"Congratulations! I'm so happy that you won the competition!"

The trio was thrilled, especially Olivia.She had witnessed how Lily achieved success step by step.She
had been by Lily’s side for so long and had learned a lot.She had also followed Lily to learn how to mix
fragrances, analyze the composition of spices, extract essential oils, distillation, and much more.



Her knowledge was limitless but was never officially honored.She had never won an award, even after
staying at the lab countless nights and getting gratifying results.

At that time, Olivia asked herself, ‘Why? Are you willing to accept that?’ She always thought that being
able to surpass herself and concoct a perfect perfume constantly was the right thing to do.иσνєℓєвσσк.
¢σмThe additional appreciation was unimportant, and she would not be so fussy about the
recognition.If the person did not take it seriously, she could not do anything about it, even if she
complained about the injustice.She could only bear it and silently accompanied Lily to continue
experimenting with making perfumes.

One day, Lily could bring her perfume, stand on the podium, and shine above the rest.It would be a
joyful and exciting occasion because Lily was a diamond, and nothing could hide her dazzling beauty.

A plate of fruits was on the table, which seemed to be prepared by Jenny.

She took a sip of wine and asked concernedly, "By the way, what happened when you got kidnapped in
Westwood? We couldn’t get in touch with you.We were so worried."

"You got kidnapped?!" Olivia exclaimed.

She did not know about it yet and was very surprised when she heard about it.

"Uh, you didn't know?"

Jenny thought Olivia knew, so she said it casually.

"I didn't know! What kidnapping? How did it happen? Are you okay?"

After several questions, Olivia put down her wine glass and looked up and down at Lily.Lily could not
decide if she should laugh or cry.



"It's been a long time since it happened.Everything is okay now."

"Why didn't you tell me?!"

Olivia thundered, turning to look at Jenny, "What about you?! You didn't tell me anything either! Was I
the only one who didn’t know?"

Jenny looked helpless, "I only found out later that Lily got kidnapped.At that time, Mr.Will called and
asked me if I could reach her.How would I know what had happened? Didn't I call you and ask if you
were able to reach Lily?"

"You asked, but you didn't say she got kidnapped!"

"I didn't know she got kidnapped at that time!" Listening to the duo quarreling, Lily gestured for them to
stop.

"Okay, whatever it was or whatever you want to call it, I’m still standing in front of you guys, all right?
I’m fine."

"Then tell us what happened.Who kidnapped you? How did you manage to escape?"

The duo looked at Lily and pointed their fingers at her.Lily kept quiet.
