Chapter 307 Let It Happen Then
After being stunned for a few seconds, Silvia smiled and said, “Mr. Stewart, don’t joke with me. I know I am not qualified to join the association.”
Shaking his head lightly, Johnson, “Don’t look at problems with old ways. Now that society has developed so quickly, there are many talented people. Qualifications are all about age. If you have the ability, there is no need to wait until you are my age to be qualified.
“At my age, what can people do?” He raised a hand and leaned slightly to the side.
The person who followed him had a complicated expression on his face. “Mr. Stewart, you are really flattering us by saying this. You are the peak of the perfumers. We can never compare with your achievements.”
“Yes, yes! No one can match your talent in the past and next century.
Silvia was speechless.
She didn’t expect people of Perfuming Association to talk this way.
Johnson was indeed a legend in America. But saying that no one could pass him in the past and next century was just too much.
Not to mention people from different times. Even at present, there were many excellent perfumers in the world. Some stayed low-key, and some, such as Will, and famous perfumers from other countries, weren’t necessarily worse than Johnson.
However, it seemed to liave become a rule inside of the Perfurning Association to flatter each other. If one was slow, one would be seen as disrespectful.
Silvia could not say such words. She remained silent, not knowing why Johnson had come for.
She had originally planned to leave and then contact Simon to see where he was. If she could, she would directly return to LA. Unexpectedly, before she could leave, she was stopped by so many
people.
It seemed that Johnson did not intend to let her go.
“How do you think about it?” Johnson’s attention was all on Silvia. He stretched his head forward, looked into her eyes, and asked, “Will you even refuse me?”
Silvia was speechless.
Johnson’s voice was smooth and his attitude was amiable, but sucha simple and ordinary sentence puthier in a dilemma.
She didn’t want to accept it. But she’d appear to be rude if she refused it.
She would look arrogant if she refused Jolinson’s personal invitation.
After pondering for a moment, Silvia smiled apologetically at Johnson. Then, she suddenly took a few steps back. “I am very flattered to receive such great favor from you, Mr. Stewart. However, this matter was too sudden. I am not mentally prepared yet.”
“Are you rejecting me?” Johnson asked, smiling
“How would I dare to refuse you? To be precise, I have no right to refuse you.” Silvia’s attitude was respectful. “I had been looking forward to joining the association, so I immediately rushed over when I received the invitation. But…”
She glanced at Abel and then continued. “After living here for two days, I finally got to know what the association is like. And I feel that with my personality. I am not suitable to join the association Not only can’t I contribute to the association, but tanafraid that I will also cause a lot of trouble for the seniors.”
“How could this be…”
Johnson still wanted to say something, but Silvia went on saying, “I was going to leave. I did not expect you to come to see me on the way. I am sorry to disturb you. How about…”
Silvia suddenly turned around. She walked straight to Abel and looked at him.
Abel did not quite understand the current situation, but no matter what, Johnson tried to make
Silvia stay, that at this point, their interests were the same. So, Abel did not say much. He waited to see how Silvia would deal with it.
Suddenly, she walked toward him. There were so many people surrounding him. Retreating in front of everyone was really embarrassing. Abel tried her best to suppress his trembling voice and looked at her confidently. “What are you doing?”
He had not forgotten that not long ago, Silvia almost broke his arms.
He had experienced it, therefore, he remembered. He looked at her warily as if she a demon.
Without answering him, Silvia smiled. Suddenly, she reached out to Abel’s pocket.
Abel was speechless.
He watched as she took out a small bottle of perfume from his pocket. It was the bottle that he had
watched her make just now.
This smell was unusual and addictive. Abel took it with him, thinking that he would go back and
study it after solving the problemlere.
He didn’t even have time to block it with his hand before she took it away.
“Mr. Stewart, I was thinkin, of giving this to you as a pift. I hope you don’t mind.” Silvia handed it
over with both hands to show her respect.
Johnson’s eyes flashed. He took the bottle of perfume from her hand. He looked at it closely and then shook it a few times. Then, he opened the bottle and approached the tip of his nose.
It was still a distance away from the tip of his nose, but he could already smell the fragrance of the
flowers.
Not only flowers but there was also a faint smell of the grass in the early morning too, which was very refreshing
“Did you make this?” There was to expression on Johnson’s face, but his eyes were very serious.
“No, Mr. Halpert and I made it together “Silvia shook her head
She paused for a moment, then pointed at the door behind her “We did it in the studio in the backyard. Mr. Halpert is very attentive The kitchen is well equipped. He had prepared everything, even including those that I didn’t think of
Hearing her words, Johnson lazily glanced at Abelfot a second
“I know what he’s capable of very well.” Johnson said, “I don’t dare to say that I know the same about yours, but I more or less understandit. I like this ‘flower’ very much, thank you.”
“Mr. Stewart…” Abel subconsciously called out. He had wanted to keep the perfume for himself.
“You don’t want to give it to me?” Johnson said, raising his eyebrows.
Abel was silent for a moment. “No way! If you like it, feel free to take it.”
Johnson nodded, then looked at Silvia. “So, are you leaving still and refusing me?”
