Lily had to buck up when dealing with someone like Alexander Russell, so she got straight to the point, “I understand that La Beauté Group is also participating in this season’s perfumery competition tonight. I have a new formulation and wish to join your team.” 

“We’ve already chosen our participating member,” Alexander said slowly. 

Lily knew about this. “But you can have more than one entry. I just want to be an addition, not a replacement to the team…” 

Alexander bluntly interrupted Lily. “Why should I trust you?” 

Lily quickly opened her bag and removed a stack of documents from it. “This is First Love’s research and data formula. I hope it’s enough to prove my sincerity in working with you.

Afterward, Lily retracted her hand, but unexpectedly, Alexander grabbed her wrist. He held her with just the right amount of strength. Lily could not break free, but she was not feeling pain either. 

“Do you think La Beauté Group needs such a thing?” Alexander asked. 

“This is just a welcoming gift. If you think it’s not sufficient, I have a suggestion. I’ll allow your company to own the trademarks for the perfumes I formulate over the next two years,” Lily negotiated.
