Chapter 2:Marry Me
When dealing with people like this, one really had to be in the right spirit.
Silvia cut to the chase, “I know your company is also participating in this season’s perfume competition tonight, and I have a newly developed perfume in hand that I hope can be added to Warin’s team.”
“Warin has already selected the entry.” Simon said unhurriedly.
This she knew of course, “But the entries are not limited to just one, I just want to add one, not to replace …”
“Why should I trust you?” he interrupted with unparalleled directness.
Silvia moved quickly to open the small bag and pulled out a stack of information from it,
“These are the data of my development of the First Love as well as the formula, which represents
my sincerity. As for the quality….”
“Three years ago Mr.Simon had extended an invitation to me, and I believe that he also recognized my ability, and in fact, I have brought a sample today.”
“Sample?”
Speaking up now, he finally had a change in his facial expression and raised his eyebrows, seemingly quite interested.
Silvia nodded her head and suddenly extended her hand towards him.
A light sweet fragrance wafted over with her movements, the smell fragrant but not strong
Simon quietly looked at the hand in front of him, white and pure, with well-defined knuckles.
The sweet smell lingers at the end of the nose, tantalizing and softening the heart.
“I am confident that First Love can at least take the top three, which is undoubtedly the icing on the cake for Warin.”
After saying that, she naturally pulled back on her hand, but she didn’t expect to be held by him.
Simon’s grip on her wrist was just right, she couldn’t break free, but she didn’t feel any discomfort or pain.
“Do you think Warin cares about the icing on the cake?”
“It’s just a gift, if Mr. Simon doesn’t think it’s enough, how about Warin gets the rights to all the perfumes I make for the next two years?”
She had thought about it, Simon would definitely not be that quick to agree, but as long as there was
still room to talk, there was room to maneuver.
She couldn’t find a more suitable partner other than him because of the time constraint.
“Not enough indeed.”
Releasing his hand to set her free, a faint aftertaste still lingered on the end of his fingers.
Simon lowered his eyes, hiding the essence in his eyes, “Unless … add you.”
“Me?!” Silvia didn’t understand what it meant.
“Did you bring everything you were told to bring?” He suddenly asked.
“Yes, I did.”
Although she didn’t understand what he was going to do, she took everything with her before she left the house.
“Marry me, and your trouble, I’ll help you solve it.”
At this moment Silvia’s jaw almost fell to the ground.
Holy cow! What did he say? Marry? With him?
She realized that the car was parked across the street from the City Hall, and he had arranged the place here, and asked her to bring those things, to get a license? Is he serious?
“If it’s no, you can go now.”
The door of the car opened casually, indicating that she quickly had to make a choice.
Fearing being thrown out of the car, she pressed the door handle and said sharply, “I didn’t say no.”
“Then it’s a yes.”
With his lips curled up, Simon got up, “Let’s go and get the paperwork done. I have a meeting at
Silvia: “…”
And he was in a hurry?
Her hands gripped the car door, her eyes locked on the man in front of her, breathing slightly sharply. “May I ask, why?”
Why her? Why so suddenly?
“Aren’t we talking business? You need someone to help with the whole V.L. problem. I need a wife.
Fair enough I think
Histone was relaxed and he seemed to sound extremely natural, except for the playfulness in his gaze that seemed to Silvia more than a little familiar, but she couldn’t recall.
There would be no future with that scum Ladarius, and marrying Simon, no matter what, with his
status and position, no matter what he wanted, would not be a loss for her.
Silvia’s gaze became firm, “Deal!”
What she wanted was nothing more than fair.
The procedure was not complicated, both of their documents were complete, quickly done.
Out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Simon carefully put away the two papers, put on sunglasses, hiding the smile at the corner of his eyes, Silvia jogged two steps to catch up with him, panting, “Mr. Simon, our deal…”
Stopping abruptly, Simon turned his head.
Even through the sunglasses, she could feel the plummeting temperature, and her grip on
his shirt loosened subconsciously.
“From today on, you should get used to your new identity, Mrs. Palmer.”
Wrapping his arms around her waist, his breath was close at hand.
Silvia was lost in thought for a moment.
“Give Freddie the information and samples of the perfume and he’ll arrange it.”
Releasing his hand, he reentered the car, Silvia followed closely but did not get in.
“DEAR, what else is wrong?”
Turning his head to look at her, the phone Simon held in his hand buzzed, waiting for him to press the answer button
“Honey… about our marriage, can we keep it to ourselves for now?” Her cheeks flushed, but afraid of delaying him, she spoke quickly, “I still have some personal matters, I will take care of it soon.”
Through the sunglasses, she couldn’t see Simon’s eyes and couldn’t distinguish joy or anger from
his expression
“Meet me at Warin by 5:00 pm.”
After saying that, he pressed the phone to answer and put it to his ear, “It’s me.”
Silvia nodded, closed the car door for him, watched the car leave, but could not breathe a sigh of relief. She still had a hard battle to fight.
She went to eat and buy a new set of clothes before driving unhurriedly to V.L. During this time. Ladarius called her dozens of times, but she didn’t answer.
When the car was parked, Ladarius’ secretary, Jackson, greeted her with an anxious face,
“Miss Silvia, you are finally here. Mr. Ladarius has been looking for you like crazy.”
Yes, she had worked hard for Ladarius for three years, but her position was only a technician.
Silvia walked steadily towards the office and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing really, it’s just urgent.” Jackson shook his head.
In fact, in the company, except for Ladarius and Vivienne, and her closest assistant, no one knew that the perfume that made V.L’s sales record high came from her hand.
Everyone thought that Vivienne was the mainstay of the company and the backbone of V.L.
Silvia had never cared about the name before.
Silvia never cared about these false names before, and now … cares even less.
As she walked to the door of the president’s office, S heard Ladarius’ growling voice,
“You’re with her every day, and you’re telling me you don’t know where she’s gone?
I’m telling you, Winnie, don’t rely on Silvia to back you up, believe it or not I’ll fire you tomorrow!”
The next thing she knew, there was an earth-shattering hang-up call, and Silvia knitted her brows.
Ladarius couldn’t find her, so he was taking it out on her assistant Winnie.
Jacksonreached out and knocked on the door, then pushed the door in. He was very sensible not to go in, and closed the door from the outside.
“Bomb!” A cup smashed directly in front of her feet, the broken porcelain even brushed the surface of her feet. Ladarius was furious. “All morning, where have you been!”
