His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 397

After leaving George’s office, Lily went directly to Jenny's office.

Jenny was already waiting there, with Olivia as well. Not only was she there, but there was an opened bottle of champagne and three glasses on the table, apparently waiting for Lily to return to celebrate.

"Drinking during work hours? You girls are terrible!" Lily shook her head and said smilingly.

"Who said we were drinking? We’re just having a toast to celebrate!" Jenny corrected her, "Hurry up! Close the door!"

After closing the office door and pulling down the blinds, the trio felt like criminals.

"Isn't the celebration after work? What's the hurry?" Lily said, but she still went over and picked up the glass.

"Tonight’s celebration is with everyone else. Now, it’s just the three of us. It's different!" Olivia raised her glass to clink Lily’s glass. "Congratulations! I'm so happy that you won the competition!”

The trio was thrilled, especially Olivia. She had witnessed how Lily achieved success step by step. She had been by Lily’s side for so long and had learned a lot. She had also followed Lily to learn how to mix fragrances, analyze the composition of spices, extract essential oils, distillation, and much more. Her knowledge was limitless but was never officially honored.

She had never won an award, even after staying at the lab countless nights and getting gratifying results. At that time, Olivia asked herself, ‘Why? Are you willing to accept that?’ She always thought that being able to surpass herself and concoct a perfect perfume constantly was the right thing to do.

The additional appreciation was unimportant, and she would not be so fussy about the recognition.

If the person did not take it seriously, she could not do anything about it, even if she complained about the injustice. She could only bear it and silently accompanied Lily to continue experimenting with making perfumes.

One day, Lily could bring her perfume, stand on the podium, and shine above the rest. It would be a joyful and exciting occasion because Lily was a diamond, and nothing could hide her dazzling beauty.
