Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 1236

Chapter 1236

She felt it was unlikely they could achieve such a result and saw that there was no need to invest that much money and time in it, hence the conflict.

Lily had been working in her studio again. While preparing the essence, she thought about how some medicinal herbs would always have a smell associated with them. Why must she forcibly try and separate the two?

It was not a big deal if the consumers could smell the medicinal herbs used in the perfumes.

Just like how lavender was known for soothing nerves and mint was refreshing, medicinal herbs also had their own uses.

However, the institute was heading in a different direction. Instead of creating products to allow consumers to accept medicinal herbs in a more pleasant way, they were trying to get people to inhale the medicinal properties of the herbs without their awareness.

This was the weird part of all this!

On top of this and the fact that the research was stagnant, she hadn't returned to the institute for more than half a month. She hadn't heard from them until two days ago, when she got a letter inviting her to this symposium.

At first, Lily was looking forward to a learning exchange, but it turned out to be a boring banquet and a shocking meeting with a misogynist.

After a moment of consideration, Alexander said, i'll never stop you from doing what you want, but just promise me one thing.

Hearing this, she smiled and struck a pose. "You forgot, I'm a kickboxer! Unless they brought guns to a fistfight... Besides, we're at Kingsland!"

"Don't forget that you're pregnant!"

"She's great. I think she’s better than the previous one. There are a lot of times when she's more careful than me," she answered as she checked through the unread messages on her phone.

She had yet to look at her phone since she left the symposium. There were several WhatsApp messages and a few emails in her inbox.

On top of that, there were three missed calls. They were all unknown numbers from landlines. Thinking that they were just scam calls, she ignored them.

Then she clicked on one of her WhatsApp messages and looked at it.

Alexander leaned over from behind and rested his chin on her neck. When he noticed the faint red marks on her collarbones, the corners of his lips raised. “Are you still tired?”

"Huh?"
