“Are you guys sure this Vivienne chick doesn’t know jack about perfumery?” Elijah cast a doubtful glance at the Hawthorn family members standing in front of him. Not only was Arabella present, but Beatrice, Michael Hawthorn, and Joseph Hawthorn were all present
too.
After the Hawthorn Group went belly-up, they were cornered by their creditors. They originally planned to lean on Dorian, but Elijah surprisingly popped up, cleared their debts, and even promised to help the Hawthorn Group rise from the ashes.
So now, they were all over Elijah with gratitude. They followed his orders to the letter.
Upon hearing his question, Beatrice rushed to shake her head and answer. “No way! Her mom might have known about perfumery, but she kicked the bucket when she was just nine. How much could she have taught her? She grew up in a convent, so there’s no way she had a chance to learn about perfumery.”
“Why would she challenge me then?” Elijah asked, looking puzzled.
“She must be relying on the perfume formula her mom left behind.” Beatrice replied.
Elijah had the same thought, but he still asked, “Didn’t you say the formula your third son gave you was the last one?”
“He said so, but I think that’s bull.” Beatrice scoffed. “Evelyn made eight perfume formulas when she was with the Hawthorn family. She’s always been one to cover her bases, so why would she only leave one formula for my son? It’s just that he refuses to cough it up!”
Even the one that he did was only given on the condition that they cut ties.
Thinking about the perfume formula in Dorian’s possession made a hint of greed and coldness flash in Elijah’s eyes.
He waved at the Hawthorn family. “Alright, take a hike.”
“But Mr. Elijah, our company…” Beatrice hesitated to ask.
“I’ve told you that as long as you follow my lead, I guarantee the Hawthorn Group will rise again.” Elijah dismissed Beatrice nonchalantly.
