Chapter 434: The Perfume Deal

Julian gently held her chin and applied lipstick to her lips, a moment so tender it made others envious. Heather watched, her face full of admiration. "She's so lucky. If only I could find someone who would touch up my lipstick anytime I needed it," she sighed.

Yet Ian's mind was elsewhere. He couldn't help but wonder why Aurora's lipstick had faded in the first place. His envy was directed at Julian, who could so effortlessly touch the woman Ian admired but found unattainable. Julian wiped away a smudge of misplaced lipstick.

"Go ahead," he said.

"Alright." Aurora smiled and bid him farewell before leading Ian and Heather to the café. They were meeting NE in person today.

Without Julian's connections, securing a meeting with this master would have been nearly impossible-especially when a dozen other companies were vying for the rights to distribute his new perfume.

As they entered the upscale café, a server warmly approached them.

"Miss, do you have a reservation?"

"Yes, Room 22."

"Please follow me."

"Have the other guests arrived?" Aurora casually asked.

"There's already one lady waiting."

"Got it," Aurora replied, though a flicker of curiosity crossed her mind. She had been told over the phone that NE was a man around Julian's age. So, who was this woman?

While the situation felt unusual, Aurora didn't overthink it and followed the server into the private room.

"Miss, this is your room." The server opened the door.
