Chapter 690

Alexander was not pretending but truly did not care about such a thing. That made Lily’s smile widen because

he understood her so well. Back then, she did not take the exam for the perfumer certification because she felt

it was too formalized.

She decided to take the perfumer's grade exam because, as a newcomer to the field, she was eager to

demonstrate her competence but needed more confidence in her ability to create fragrances.

The second reason was that Nathaniel convinced her to. He had just started a business and was looking for a

perfumer to head the Research and Development department. No matter how well- known a perfumer was,

having a certificate attesting to their proficiency benefited the company.

On the other hand, Nathaniel knew little about the perfumer certificate and did not care much about it. On top

of that, Lily discovered via her research that most of the required syllabi for the certification were rigid,

theoretical items. In contrast, creating scents was a creative endeavor that called for talent.

She had spent a week perusing the reference books before giving up on studying for the exam

because she had discovered numerous errors inside them. Besides, she had no plans to take on the

industry's established veterans.

Out of her long career in the perfumery industry, she had only worked in two companies. She started at

MN Inc., but after cutting ties with Nathaniel, she moved to Rebirth. No one had asked her for her

perfumer certificate, so it was left aside.

If it were not for the case this time around, no one would have known that she had never taken such a

test before, even the Perfumers’ Society. They had never expected that she would not have the most

basic type of certificate as she had participated in many international competitions and won several

awards. It was just ridiculous for them to want to revoke her achievements now.

“Oh, right, back to the question you asked me earlier. Actually...” Lily paused and thought about it

carefully. “It’s not impossible to put poison into the perfumes, but it’s not too big of a concern for the

consumers.”

“Hm?” Alexander raised his brows and said nothing. He was waiting for her to continue.

“Concerning my Grandpa’s issue, didn’t I use your company’s lab in Sapphine a few days ago? I did

this experiment and tried to add toxins to the ingredients. It’s plausible, and it doesn’t even affect the

natural scents of the ingredients that much. I would say that it’s possible to poison someone without

getting noticed. However, there’s a weakness in this type of ingredient. It can’t be stored for a long

time.”

She continued to explain, “You know that the ingredients used in perfumes are all volatile substances.

It would have a limited shelf life even if it were sealed and stored correctly, not to mention exposure to

the outer environment.

“If it were exposed to the air, it would degrade very quickly.

Moreover, the ingredients are unstable in the first place. Just think of how long it would take before the

ingredients reached the consumers, from being produced in the factory and manufactured until they’re finally in

the market.

“The most important thing is that... even if I could do that, I’m only involved in researching and developing the

perfumes. The factories are the ones that put the ingredients into production, so if poison was truly present in

the ingredients, the workers in the factory should be the first batch of people to get poisoned, no?” Lily stuck

out her tongue and smiled helplessly. “Besides, what good will doing such a thing do for me?”

Initially, Alexander was just curious, and her explanation cleared his doubts. “The public is always blind and

would always base their opinions on the things they see or hear from the internet. This issue would blow up

with someone stirring it up from within.

However, these lies can’t stand their ground for long, and hence, they’d dissipate as fast as they came. The

only thing that needs to be settled is the person stirring up this issue.”

No one in the Russell family would be so shameless as to resort to such a tactic. Recently, however, he had

been in Sapphine, and in addition to running his own business, he had been tending to the needs of the Lodge

family, which meant he had neglected the rotten apples out there.
